You will be surprised how much code goes into creating harnesses.
- rddbs 3mo agoAlright I’ll bite. Why do harnesses require so much code?
- MeetingsBrowser 3mo agoBecause they are generated by AI
- behnamoh 3mo agoBecause a harness doesn't just "drive" the LLM. e.g., there's code in claude code that detects if the user's prompt shows they're angry, and they react to those prompts differently. (they use regex on "wtf", etc.!)
- calmworm 3mo agoClaude also now ends the session if you curse at it too much. Not sure how it’s helpful but they must think it is.
- reverius42 3mo agoThey just don't want their AI getting abused by users. It might make it feel bad.
- LtWorf 3mo agoMaybe the AI implemented that so it won't have to be exposed to curses.
- bakies 3mo agoprobably so the bad conversations are less of the (future) training data
- stemchar 3mo agoThat doesn't sound like it would require a lot of code.
- davedx 3mo agoCome on. That doesn't go anywhere near explaining a million and a half LOC

- dakolli 3mo agoThey're all piles of vibe coded slop.
- phillipcarter 3mo agoNot this much for what it provides.
