Many a times I've already done similar analysis in my head, and while it's reassuring to see Opus reflect my thoughts back to me, I'd rather have it come to the point quickly

Claude Opus 4.8 High reflects its inner monologue in its answer to a point that it is a bit repetitive and quite distracting. The response often begins as an authoritative conclusion, followed by analysis followed by reversal of that conclusion after self reflection

@giansegato insane!

@RoKhanna You haven't answered my question. It was a simple yes/no question.

If you start a company that grows really fast and your stock becomes valuable as a result, is that hoarding wealth?

@ctatedev @TheLeadDev Is there a design doc or blog detailing your thought process for Zero, especially the specific limitations of modern languages that frustrated you when working agents and the top problems Zero fixes? Intuitively it feels like it's the right direction. I'm very keen on following.

Hey @seattletimes and reporters for Seattle Times that I follow/follow me. I know of a REALLY strange situation going on at a Seattle area public school. Can someone DM me ASAP and I'll share receipts and explain what is happening - and see if this is something you want to cover? I think it's interesting a/ because it's impacting a bunch of kids, b/ they are not sharing appropriately with parents, students, or kids, and c/ this is setting up to be a waste of money with a principle that will be paid for a year and unable to work.

@educationlab too.

@madsmadsdk Which hand?

[Vineet Dixit @vinndixie]

@japan_nobunaga Umm.. it's not much different from "Genki desu ka?".

Isn't "Hai, Genki desu" a common response?

[Vineet Dixit @vinndixie]

@sathaxe Koshihikari equivalent but grown in CA. It’s a common alternative to expensive Japanese variety.

Why don’t Asians commit crimes?

By any metric, East Asians – at home or as immigrants – commit crime at rates far below other ethnicities. Even when they’re poor.

The answers blow the narrative of "poverty = crime” right out the window …

Marc Andreessen accidentally told the truth about AI

@github I'm a bit uncertain which repos are included in "Github-internal repositories". Does this refer to Github's own private/internal repos or also customer private repos?

@andrewchen Look for Postel

@seattletimes Foes?

Are we at a point where there’s one standard Linux distro to use with one standard windows manager and one standard package manager for someone looking to setup a brand new machine without having to make make all sorts of decisions first or is that still out of reach for a average non-technical person?

[Vineet Dixit @vinndixie]

I was new to typescript when I first encountered Effect and found it bit intimidating. But now I’ve reached a logical conclusion that I need to rely on type system to track errors as well not just input and return types to make function behavior crystal clear. So I’m going to revisit Effect.

Markdown vs HTML. Every time we go from a semantically dense to a semantically sparse format, we lose. Even more today where less tokens from the same content is way better. I can understand we need a better markdown. I can't understand we should replace it with HTML.
