We've redesigned Claude Code on desktop.

You can now run multiple Claude sessions side by side from one window, with a new sidebar to manage them all.

@RhysSullivan There is literally no real use case for that.

@rauchg That… is ridiculous. React is great tech, but it is definitely not “kernel of software development”. UI gives, at best, 20% of value in 80% of cases. Whole industries/economies run and depend on software where UI is ugly, if it even exists. Function over form.

@tekbog And the main problem on top of that is that 90% of SWEs don’t even understand that

@davepl1968 Having been a “code monkey” for fortran developers many moons ago, I chuckled 😅

🚀 Just spent 20+ hours building the ULTIMATE financial dashboard...and I'm giving it away FREE

What started as a way to stop management from asking the same questions over and over turned into a complete finance command center that updates with ONE CLICK. 👇

Here's what makes it special:

✅ Shows Revenue & Gross Margin vs target
✅ Compares performance to budget AND prior period
✅ Breaks everything down by department
✅ Tracks every type of cost
✅ Updates instantly when data changes

The secret?

- Beautiful design with cohesive color schemes
- Proper data structure across departments
- Power Query automation
- Smart relationship mapping
- Instant refresh capability

No more struggling with messy P&Ls or confusing spreadsheets.

Just clean, professional insights ready to blow away any stakeholder

Unreal Tournament was released for Windows on this day, 25 years ago (1999).

Facing Worlds is one of the greatest multiplayer maps of all time.

@zeeg @JimsonRai Absolutely. Claude is much better at code than chatgpt. You can also easily switch between models (and disable shitty ones)

While the IT world is all in love with GPT/LLMs etc, the world economy runs on Excel and legacy systems older than Google.

The opposite of how software development goes. “Hardware is cheap” is the worst thing that happened to software engineering

[LaurieWired @lauriewired]

Pixar doesn't use GPUs (much).

Their render farm compute is mostly CPUs with a ton of cores + memory, using AVX-512 and SSE 4.2 optimizations when appropriate to optimize render time.

Why?

GPU render compute doesn't speed things up as much as you might expect. Yes, in certain instances, you can get a 3-4x benefit, however you have to fit all the polys in GPU memory. Paging back out to system RAM brings you back down to CPU speeds.

Scenes can often contain > 150,000,000 polys. Only very recently have gpu memory sizes gotten big enough to be "worth it" over CPU rendering, and even then, it's often less flexible/tolerant of mixing older architectures in the cluster.
