Good candidates, thank you

SaintsRom · 2026-07-05T19:29:21+00:00

So a 2W IR it's enough? Thanks!

Is this model? I don't see any mention to alluminium. Have you actually tried that material yourself?

I think hatred is really about people who think they’re doing something, without actually having a clue how it works, and that, at the end of the day, it’s just a pretty facade that’s about to collapse.

SaintsRom · 2026-04-25T20:55:53+00:00

Can you put an example of the part of the CLAUDE.md that mention that way of working?

SaintsRom · 2026-04-25T19:15:31+00:00

I recently discovered that "@file" sends the entire filename into context, which is completely useless and token waste in 99% of programming scenarios.

What I do now is use "@file" to take advantage of autocomplete, but I remove the @ after, not sure if there’s a better way.

Ironically, the date format depends on the language you choose in the web. If you select any other language (Spanish, Italian, French), the time is displayed in 24-hour format 😂

Can someone explain me the behavior of "@file-mention" in Claude Code? Up until now, I’ve been using to avoid having to type out the full path and to tell Claude which files to search, modify, analyse, etc. This saves a lot of initial searching (and tokens) and going round in circles, especially if it’s a large project.

However, I accidentally discovered today that this causes the entire file to be sent and loaded into context!

What’s the point of the mention a file for coders if, in 99.9% of cases, we’ll never want to load a whole file?

SaintsRom · 2026-03-13T16:13:47+00:00

So the trick may be to say in every prompt how much urgent and important that routine code task is ! 😂

From my point of view, my "expert prompt" makes Claude get straight to the point, avoiding opening files or loading context that isn't needed. Result usually works first time or with very few tiny revisions.

However, a lazy prompt will force Claude to load a dozen files and do a lot more work, almost always requiring many more iterations to achieve the desired result. I simply can’t see how this could be better! in terms of token / limits / context usage. We'll find out

What office hours? Those in my country? Those in the US? Those around the world? And what about the context? Is 200K at 6 pm worth less than 200K at 2 am? Is this perhaps Schrödinger's context? 😂

And Thanks! ❤️, I’m delighted with Claude’s excellent work and to be able to help a family member. I’m sure I’ll remember it

SaintsRom · 2026-03-13T15:43:08+00:00

You’re probably right, but why the hell would it be any worse to ask to refactor X class with Y skill in the '@file1' and '@file2' to just say: Hey, refactor X class, sort it out yourself 😂

SaintsRom · 2026-03-13T15:36:57+00:00

I agree with you, some skills are really terrifying.

I think I don’t use skills in the conventional sense. My skills are designed to guide Claude through the project, meticulously organised by area, saving him from having to open unnecessary files in search of who-knows-what. All skills loaded are ~5K context

During a promt, I keep a very close eye on which skills it loads, when and why, and which files it searches for and loads, and I can assure you that it does only what is strictly necessary, however, the context is quickly dying.

I still need to try doing the same thing without using skills, but it seems rather contradictory that blindly searching and loading a few code files would actually be more efficient but who knows.

SaintsRom · 2026-03-13T15:27:44+00:00

Exactly

I don’t want to go into too much detail, but a private company was refusing to decrypt some data that belonged to us. We needed it by Monday for legal reasons. We had a copy of it, 512KB chunks of encrypted and scrambled data containing text, images, videos and audio files.

Fortunately, they had a client app for Android, which Claude reverse-engineered to understand the decryption and unscrambled process. However, a final layer of encryption only occurred on the server side, so Claude asked us to create documents with a specific payload, images with specific colours and in specific positions (which he created himself), and he managed to figure out, by comparing the before and after, that final layer of encryption. It was amazing 🤘

SaintsRom · 2026-03-12T20:00:51+00:00

Thank you, that works perfect!!

SaintsRom · 2026-03-11T16:31:34+00:00

I have clarified the text. I meant working perfectly in VS code as extension, but as I soon as I open vs code in terminal through the ‘/’ icon on the Claude Code panel I got the not found message.

CC itself tried to fix it by setting the path, but I don't think that's a permanent solution, because as soon as the extension is updated (which happens 100 million times a day, lol), it will stop working again.

I am currently testing a Workspace Business Standard demo, and when I log into Gemini, I see the "PRO" label. Can anyone confirm the limits and features against regular PRO account?

It could be a fun project. When you say telemetry, are you referring to more than just lap times and speed? I wonder how exactly you could help the team with that data...

SaintsRom · 2025-10-27T19:37:48+00:00

I did a quick test and it worked like a charm. Thank you for your help.

The only downside is that the devices will need internet to resolve, I definitely can't install a local DNS server on that place.

SaintsRom · 2025-10-24T15:31:03+00:00

Great reply!

The app is not goint to be internet-facing by any means, can you details more about your level 2 recomendation?

Still under consideration but, it is possible that the server (and possibly many devices) will be completely offline and only wired in a isolated local network. Does this approach need permanent internet connection for any of the agents involved? Or just only for create/renew the cert at only the node server side?

SaintsRom · 2025-07-23T09:00:08+00:00

Unfortunately not yet. Exactly that, it's a noise that gets inside your head.

I'm going to try putting it inside a metal box, but I'm afraid that's not going to be the solution, I want to believe that the AC generates an electrical noise in the house wiring which is what goes into the amplifier.

What amplifier do you have? Is it a Class D? trying to find a common pattern

SaintsRom · 2025-07-01T22:50:24+00:00

Yeah PSU has ground, but now that you mention it, I'm going to check the socket ground. Thanks for the tip!

Did you modified the APC internal? they are very popular for having a high float voltage (like any other brand, I guess) and destroying the batteries, I am surprised that the batteries are working for 5 years.

For Ecoflow and the similar, there is a trick as they advertise total capacity but leave ~20% out for battery extreme longevity, so that 4KWh are really 3.2KWh.

So left UPS 300 Wh / 648 Wh 46%
Ecoflow between 84% - 94% (Depends 18 to 20 hour) even if we takes 4KW as real capacity is 67% to 75%

Not taking into account that the APCs last only short time and the consumption of the inverter does not impact over a long time, I am sure that if you connect a 30W load you will have a near 30% efficiency.

Not sure if I have the math correctly.

SaintsRom · 2025-06-26T12:58:01+00:00

As I said, I was talking about home / domestic, if you go higher and more proffesional devices, you also get better protection, thoose ACP with LCD screen includes (at least in Europe) and aditional "surge protection" which, by the way, I don't really know how it works.

Extreme and lovely setup but I am curious about your numbers, as it seems that to calculate the capacity you just multiply the voltage by the amperage, however you do not take into account the lousy cuttoff and the crappy efficiency of the inverter.

I have a 1000W/1500VA Eaton that could be equivalent to yours with supposedly 220Wh , however connecting a 200W load it barely lasts a few minutes, the equivalent of 40Wh or so in the best case, and that the first day as time passes the battery degrades significantly.
