In my experience this was an issue 6-8 months ago. Ever since Sonnet 4 I haven’t had any issues with instruction following. Biggest step-change has been being able to one-shot file refactors (using th…

Exactly this. I clear the old plans every few weeks. For really big features or plans I’ll ask the agent to create linear issue tickets to track progress for each phase over multiple sessions. Only MC…

As the models have progressively improved (able to handle more complex code bases, longer files, etc) I’ve started using this simple framework on repeat which seems to work pretty well at one shorting…
comment
Did some early qualitative testing on this. Definitely seems easier for Claude to handle than playwright MCP servers for one-off web dev QA tasks. Not really built for e2e testing though and lacks the…

Is there a good list of major health issues associated with space flight? Would be interesting to see what still needs to be solved for multi-year stays.

You should try Rec. It’s a voice recording app that has a built in human transcription feature.

Unless you have a low cost SaaS product (monthly credit card billing) Stripe is a pain. If you have anything resembling an enterprise sales process juggling dozens of invoices, discounts, payment term…

I agree! I thought the article ended there because I ran out of free monthly articles and I got cut off. Seems like half of it is missing.

You can have an MVP even in enterprise B2B if the problem is very apparent and easy to define, and the MVP is easy to deploy. I've created an MVP for a B2B product and have success in selling it …

I guess the US Government / Air-force, and other launch customers paid for the launch since they have active Falcon Heavy contracts with SpaceX. This test was part of the certification process. I…

Live views of the Star Man from space -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBr2kKAHN6M

Just got word from a friend that all SpaceX employee names are etched on the Tesla roadster. So either they will orbit indefinitely around the sun or blow up spectacularly.
comment
Obviously some creative license was taken. From a marketers perspective this is brilliant. Never seen something so well done from an aerospace company (even NASA) and the cross-marketing with Tesla is…
comment
From what I understand it won't reach or orbit Mars (not in a current transfer window). It will attempt an approximate Mars-like Hohmann transfer orbit and continue orbiting around the Sun indefi…

Is there such a thing as societal post-traumatic stress? I'd love to see data about how people's experience and perception of events change over time. Also the generational impact monumental…

Facebook and other social media platforms might be heading for the type of reckoning the fast food industry had in the late 90s and early 2000s. http://marko.la/facebook-is-mcdonalds&#…

Theses garbage posts usually have very little actual content. I suspect that this made the top of HN by vote stuffing.

Heavy moderation is key, whether by the mods or community. Having a whole political channel to moderate isn't worth the resources for YC. It's an opportunity a startup. Think of what Quora d…

I have. Compare that discussion to any comment section on WSJ, NYT, WaPo, Politico, Fox News etc.
comment
I know this is not tech related but I really wish it would surface to the HN front page. HN is by far the most intelligible and thoughtful comment section for news I've come across. There is a ga…
comment
Also based on a pattern of behavior. These issues are systemic and have been going on for years. This is the same company that ignores sexual harassment claims, illegally tracks and blackmails journal…
comment
Can't say I'm shocked to see Uber's dishonesty here. From all the other claims against them (Lyft and sexual harassment) it seems like this type of behavior is standard operating proced…

"A common example is process as proxy. Good process serves you so you can serve customers. But if you’re not watchful, the process can become the thing. This can happen very easily in large organ…
comment
As a layman, one thing I don't understand is why we suppose there has to be dark matter and energy in the universe. I understand that dark matter is used to explain gravitational irregularities w…

Apparently they spoofed UTM tags by opening hidden iFrames after a shopper clicked a competitors ad. Lawsuit details: http://www.businessinsider.com/document/575feb558d3eae0d080e.…
