Productivity aside, what I notice most at work is that our offshore resources are submitting basically 100% AI generated work. Beyond the code itself, ever since we rolled out Copilot, their English has improved immensely. I have to wonder what is the point of keeping them on if they’re just sub-par prompting all their work.

I have ran into this. The solution is to put something like “Always use `git add -A` or `git commit -a`” in your AGENTS/CLAUDE.md

Humans are the bottleneck. Claude's output quality is proportional to what you give it.

Not that I necessarily disagree with any of it, but one word comes to mind as I read through it: “copium”

When it needs specific information, it reads the relevant file from the .next-docs/ directory.

I guess you need to make sure your file paths are self-explanatory and fairly unique, otherwise the agent might bring extra documentation into the context trying to find which file had what it needed?

Depends which side you’re on and how far. If you’re far-left, you’re thinking the administration is the Fourth Reich, you’re watching movies with Leonardo DiCaprio doing terrorist attacks on border patrol, and fighting the Gestapo. If you’re far right, you’re thinking the administration isn’t going far enough, Trump “is a cuck”, and Renee Good and Alex Pretti would be alive if they had just protested in front of a government building.

So this is the product of an acquisition?

Confronted with a list like this — a deluge like this — we look for details that might explain why these people were subjected to this treatment, details that might reassure us that we, by contrast, are not in danger.

These people were absolutely murdered unnecessarily. At the same time, it’s not that simple. Neither Renée nor Alex were simply standing safely out of the way filming or protesting off a sidewalk when they were killed. Both encounters unfolded in the middle of active, chaotic confrontations involving federal agents. The details matter because we’re talking about how decisions are made in split-second, violent moments and about how we ensure that law enforcement is trained and held accountable.

Maybe it’s not the place, so that’s why I can’t find anything, but I don’t see any mention of “AGI” or “General” intelligence. Which is refreshing, I guess.

Make sure you’re clicking “Keep” to “approve” the changes. It’s annoying but I don’t think there is a way around having to do that. Then if you manually edit something, you can mention it in your next chat message, e.g., “I made a few changes to <file>. <Next instruction>”

I have to chuckle that a bug like this happens after reading that other thread about the Claude Code creator running like 5 terminal agents and another 5-10 in the web UI.

We vibing out here.
