The platform that fired 80% of its engineers continues to have reliability issues. Shocking.

LLMs are terrible at tracking exact line numbers. This format uses context matching instead - it finds where to apply changes by matching surrounding text, not by trusting line numbers. The find_context_core() function searches for matching

I use Claude Code CLI daily - it's genuinely changed how I work. The $1B number sounds crazy but honestly tracks with how good the tool is. Curious how Bun integration will show up in practice beyond the native installer.

The "yes/no" framing is a nice constraint that makes this actually useful vs generic "page changed" monitors. Do you rate-limit the checks to avoid hammering sources?

Notable: they open-sourced the weights under Apache 2.0, unlike OpenAI and DeepMind whose IMO gold models are still proprietary.

It handles DevOps tasks way faster than I would - setting up infra, writing migrations, config changes, etc. Project is still early stage so speed and quick iterations matter more than perfect process right now. Once there's real traff

I keep them in env variables rather than files. Not 100% secure - technically Claude Code could still run printenv - but it's never tried. The main thing is it won't stumble into them while reading config files or grepping around.

Building an AI product for kids taught me a lot about this. The assistant can't be annoying or condescending. Kids will just ignore it. But they love it when it feels like a collaborator, not a helper. Clippy failed because it interrup

Needed to read this. 20 years building software for other people, finally launched my own thing a few weeks ago. Most days feel like nothing is working. But you only need one thing to click.

After 20 years building software for other companies, I started my own thing a few weeks ago. The reality check hit fast. When you're an employee, you can hide behind process and blame the market. When it's yours, every signup or

This is the gap that kills most AI features. Devs test with queries they already know the answer to. Users come in with vague questions using completely different words. I learned to test by asking my kids to use my app - they phrase things

This matches what I found building an AI app for kids. Started with embeddings because everyone said to, then ripped it out and went with simple keyword matching. The extra complexity wasn't worth it for my use case. Most of the magic

20 years in and I still have to look up basic SQL syntax sometimes. The longer I do this the more I realize how much I don't know. At some point you just accept it and focus on knowing where to find answers fast instead of memorising e
