I've had Claude immediately fall back to its usual verbose style immediately after compaction. To be fair, I've had it do that immediately after re-reading the output style instructions, too. My chat history is filled with "Y

The "Concise" "setting" is just an .md file which is basically "use this style please". Claude will eventually ignore it just as any other style like "Technical".

Compacting context compacts context. So Claude forgets a lot during compaction.

Somehow "there's nothing complex" and "rendering" or something, and there are no layouts in CSS even close to the complexity of this layout. Except perhaps a few examples or useless stuff like "let's rende

People pretending CSS is a good fit for complex layouts have never yried to build complex layouts in CSS. Open any actual complex software from Photoshop and Cubase and weep https://x.com/dmitriid/status/1424052288

My opinion is that no one should re-implement CSS layout orimitives and algorithms. Those are rather unique in how (by necessity and quirks if history) awkward, stange and bolted on they are. Explore other layout ideas. E.g. https:/&#

138.
by troupo 2mo ago
I fail to understand your question. Apple sells 240+ million iPhones a year. Apple's profit margin is an unheard-of 25%. iPhone customers pay for everything.

What he wrote is basically "don't repeat in test X what you already tested in test X-1". It's not as much composition as compounding, and can work quite well. Let's say something takes 20 steps, and you want to test

146.
by troupo 2mo ago
What mindshare? It literally is an API gateway with a rather minuscule usage that anyone can drop at any moment to use any other proxy or when providers forbid the use of their services via proxies (like it happened with Anthropic already).

So, Apple has no issues following laws and regulations... as long as it's not the EU.
