Gave my first ever tech talk last Friday at PyCon APAC 2023. Was a bit nervous but overall it turned out great. Definitely would do it again.

PSA: if you find this annoying as well, you just need to add following in the ~/.claude/settings.json file:

```
"attribution": {"commit": "", "pr": ""}
```

[Constantine K @Semper_Viventem]

Claude Code automatically adds itself to the commit metadata "Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus <[email protected]>".

I strongly disagree with crediting Claude as a commit co-author. It is a tool I'm paying for, not a copyright holder, not an author. We don't credit Visual Studio.

Added a couple of quick utilities to my terminal which uses local speech-to-text with Pi coding agent to solve the problem of writing complex command like

find largest files in the current directory:

`find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec du -h {} + | sort -rh | head -n 5`

[Prashant Anand @primaprashant]

- comma command: I type `,` , hit Enter, start saying what I want the command to do and get the shell command I can execute

- question command: I type `q`, hit Enter, say my question aloud, and Pi answers my question with my configured LLM and can read and search for files

Anthropic has released Claude Fable 5, a new "Mythos-class" model that sits above the Opus tier

On agentic coding it scores 80.3% on SWE-bench Pro, ahead of the Mythos Preview model (77.8%), Opus 4.8 (69.2%), GPT-5.5 (58.6%), and Gemini 3.1 Pro (54.2%)

@lucasmeijer I am big fan of VoiceInk which is also local and open-source

I also maintain this list of all the best open-source ones in this awesome-style GitHub repo. Hope you find something that works for you here:

woah, claude started advertising within the chat, right now it's their own products, but ...

[Prashant Anand @primaprashant]

Because of the limited number of samples and limitations of the harness, I'd say it's not the ultimate benchmark for picking your day-to-day agentic coding tools and models just yet

[Prashant Anand @primaprashant]

DeepSWE Benchmark: Let's look into what it is first and then where it falls short

This is a benchmark for:

- longer-horizon tasks compared to SWE-Bench Pro

- tasks have a higher diversity and are contamination-free

[Prashant Anand @primaprashant]

In my opinion, the benchmark doesn't meet the experience you would actually get with these models when using Claude Code CLI or Codex CLI
