An aside: I find the range of possible meanings of “modern” fascinating. In some contexts it means post-Middle Ages, in some post-Industrial Revolution, in some mid-20th century, and in many (as here) it just means now-ish. (I’m ignoring no

Object-oriented Forth? Far out. There’s surprising stuff on every page of this site. On the Contact Us page: > If you’re looking for the debt relief company […] The Featured Forth Applications page [1] answered a lot of my questions. 1:

Very interesting analysis and great write up. Gemini the semi. Regarding Opus’s use of the git history: I run Opus and Codex in parallel a lot, or going back and forth with each other. For interesting problems I’ll give them both the same p

Sadly, I feel like it’s too mature. If you’re used to contemporary development environments, Lazarus feels like a clunky throwback. I say that with lots of love and respect for the Lazarus team and community. Delphi’s even worse. Working in

There’s a bunch of versions of this out there. This one’s mine, but it’s based on other ones. It works really well. It assesses the validity and importance of each comment, then handles it appropriately, creating issues, fixing the code, ad

I haven’t tried bopca [1] with VSCode Server yet, but I will today. Should work fine, and if it doesn’t already, I’ll get it working. [1]: https://github.com/cboone/bopca

Sadly, it doesn’t in any installation. Too bad, it’s great otherwise. https://github.com/ibara/mg#commonly-asked-questions

I agree, it is really interesting. I think that the main reason, though, is that instead of a waterfall cycle taking weeks or months, it now takes minutes. So it’s the process of waterfall (speccing things out carefully in advance, committi

It is the best way to tie shoelaces (and similarly knotted things). It takes a while to get used to, but it’s so worth it. It works! Unlike every other shoelace knot you’ve ever tied.

Opus 4.5 often does this as well. I’ve been seeing it more days than not recently. It drives me nuts. Is it worse than citations that don’t exist or citations that are “real” but don’t actually contain any salient content? I’m not sure.

You don’t even need to paste. Connect it to your IDE (which should be as easy as installing the Claude plugin in your IDE and typing `ide` in `code`) and it’ll automatically pull in whatever you have selected.

Correct. Of the various ways to work, I find the in-IDE chat to be the worst. I rarely use it for anything other than “help me understand this line”. Try one of the CLIs. That’s the good stuff right now. Claude Code (or similar) in your she
