This is a change over the last year. I’ve been trying to get ChatGPT to help me with this stuff since 2022 and it hasn’t been until the last 6 months or so that it’s actually been able to do it.

The best use of generative AI is to ask questions too embarrassing to ask publicly.

matplotlib is now mainstream

The biggest problem with vibecoding in Python is that it's forcing me to learn Path syntax.

Spammers are now attempting to prompt engineer the rogue Clawdbot into falling for a crypto scam, which is extremely cyberpunk. github.com/crabby-rathb...

of all the software libraries to be affected by bizarre and funny AI drama, why was it matplotlib

I am legitimately considering stopping commenting on Hacker News because every damn discussion devolves into "I have had success with agentic coding" and someone replying "I haven't, so you must be an AI booster" (sometimes inverted order) We are in a post good faith society.

What is the intersectionality between a) MrBeast and b) Salesforce?

There's a fun X drama where a nontechnical artist vibecoded a viral free web-based animation app and all the replies are "this backstabs coders" and "commission a programmer."

A funny consequence of Claude Code's comically low session limits is that it has built a habit of me coding an hour once a day every day, which I have NEVER done before that.

I give up on /r/rust.

I see why Anthropic gave $50 to every Claude Code user: Opus 4.6 is absolutely greedy with tokens and I can't figure out why. I run out of context faster than ever.

tfw you vibecode matrix op code that's faster than numpy

Current experimentation with GPT-5.3-Codex for hyperoptimizing batch prediction is going well.

After playing around with GPT-5.3-Codex after crashing-and-failing with GPT-5.2-Codex, it is with great confusion that I announce that it is a Sonnet 4.5 -> Opus 4.5 leap in coding.

Claude Opus 4.6 Plays Pokemon is apparently crushing Mt. Moon and that's the only benchmark that matters.

First test of GPT-5.3-Codex for my Rust performance optimization tests is...much better than expected.

just typed "for fucks sake" into the work Slack but then realized it was a public channel so quickly edited it to "wtf"

My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off. I absolutely loved my job my brilliant coworkers & the thrill of reporting @ the center of forces upending the world: AI & Silicon Valley’s political power

I actually cleared my schedule today to prepare for Claude Sonnet 5 lolololol

currently living a --dangerously-skip-permissions life

This is just Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

Spending more time with Claude Code tonight and I do think one basic reality is that AI skeptics need to update their priors: Plenty of cause for concern, plenty of room to hit these companies for unethical behavior, resource demands, etc, but we are so, so far past the era of "stochastic parrots"

Magic: the Gathering is now indistinguishable from shitposting.

Devastating SEO news for the AI YouTubers who spent the past week making Clawdbot their entire personality

Told Gemini 3 Pro to use the Search tool but I forgot to enable the Search tool, and it imploded.

OP is a bit too honest in their submission title www.reddit.com/r/rust/comme...

The Hacker News post on the new Qwen LLM has *multiple* comments saying "it can't answer questions about Tiananmen Square, lol Chinese censorship". tbh, get new material.

just won Claude Code golf

I’m reticent to attribute malicious intent to the peculiarities of feed ranking algorithms but I just checked X and 0 of the top 15 posts it showed me mentioned ICE. Regardless of whether they meant to do this, it’s clear that that site is no longer about “what’s happening”

somehow vibecoding drama has made its way into World of Warcraft addons and I'm not sure how to feel

The funny thing about the "LLMs are stochastic parrots" argument nowadays is that modern LLMs have a default temperature of 1.0, meaning that any generation is nondeterministic at a token-generation level.

Back in May, I also used the gambling metaphor to describe vibe coding. Claude Opus 4.5 has caused to me to reevaluate things. minimaxir.com/2025/05/llm-...

sounds wise but even this framing is a year out of date. people are talking almost exclusively about what they're doing with LLMs *right now*, and on top of that, what they're doing right now is exactly what the most hypebrained shill said would happen. so this is wrong about both now and a year ago

Have you ever wanted a physics simulation with thousands of balls? Have you ever wanted it in the terminal? ...no? Well, here it is: I just open-sourced ballin, a colorful terminal physics simulator! It's proof that Claude Opus 4.5 can be well-used for fun/silly things.

the eternally best git commit message

I didn't get bombarded by crypto scammers on X and I feel left out :(

Incredible. My girlfriend gave up on using LLMs to optimize code after the previous generation just spat out the same code but added the comment: # This is an efficient implementation.

I tried using Claude Opus 4.5 on a simple PyTorch MLP Notebook with the command to "make it maximally computationally efficient" just to see what would happen and it doubled the training throughput 🙃

This is a "no, it's not a crypto thing but everyone will still think it's a crypto thing" feature.

this is a new type of pie chart

Every time I let Claude take a peek outside, the poor thing comes back harrowed.

From reading the replies, every "LLMs are an inflection point in coding" posts should have a prominent "as of November 2025" disclaimer.

tfw you work on something so fun in Claude Code that you use up your Weekly Limit in 3 days

There's nothing more concerning than getting 100+ stars on a GitHub repo you thought was too buggy to release and no one has filed any new issues.

unfortunate variable name

I had a very silly and useless idea for a terminal app so I gave it to Claude Opus 4.5 anyways and it one-shot what I was going for

The Larian AMA (done as a reaction to a bad interview about admiting experimentation to GenAI) actually turned out well. You have to sort the comments by Controversial to find the GenAI discussion but Larian staff give measured responses to questions not in good faith. www.reddit.com/r/Games/comm...

Remember my demo of the MIDI player in the terminal created using Claude Opus 4.5? I polished it and now it's *open-source*! Announcing miditui: an interactive terminal app/UI for MIDI composing, mixing, and playback—written in Rust.
