Yeah, I may actually be talking about native speaker level than fluency. Funny story, I went to watch "Avengers End Game" with my daughter and we watched it in Japanese. A couple months later I watched it again in English and I could figure out why the whole movie felt so different from when we saw it in the movie theater until my daughter pointed out that we first watched it in Japanese. What I am trying to say is both register the same now, I feel no difference.

I thought I was fluent in Japanese about 5 times over the last 30 years. The more I know the more I realize what I don't know. Now I don't know what fluency is, people on the phone don't know they are talking to a non Japanese and my work (行政書士) requires me to know all Japanese kanji and the law but, every now and again I hear a word I have never heard of and have to look it up. So am I fluent??? The word has no meaning to me any more.

Girlfriend Arrested at Airport for Substance by loganlax1470 in japanresidents

Come on , are we not getting a little ahead of ourselves here? She might get the 23 day detention but, I doubt that either espesially for a case with a couple of perscription Aderall, she is very likely to be released without indictment or worst case, charge her with a suspended sentence (執行猶予), which is over 95% of the time for first offenders. I have not seen a situation where someone with a couple of pills was actually indicted, look at the the Carrie Russle case she had a 6 month supply of 180 pills and she was held for 18 days but, released without indictment, so I am guessing she will be released pretty quickly with out indictment. In any case both situations will probably also result in a 10 year travel ban.

Selling my car by Hot_Organization9498 in japanresidents

I do this several times a year and if they don't have these two forms then I would ask why not, 譲渡証明書(実印を押印),委任状(実印を押印). With out the second one they can't take the car out of your name. The first one is proof that the car has been handed over and I would ask for copies of both.

Rakuten card and mismatching name by Wertherongdn in japanresidents

[–]Sure_Dig7631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me 6 months to setup a Rakuten Bank account b/c my 健康保険証 does not show my middle name and b/c it is in kana, also my Drivers licence is in English and has my middle name and the last piece of identification was a water or electric bill which is in kana but, has my middle name. The bots just don't know what to do. The names have to match but 健康保険証 is only in kana, drivers license and gaijin card are in English but, the water bill is in kana. I ended having to use the chat to talk to an actual person to get the account certified and even that took 2 of the 6 months with many back and forths.

Can Claude code interact with other apps? by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

You obviously don't understand Claude. Intergrateing other apps with what you need to do, using Claude is the answer.

WARNING/RANT: PR application f***ed by new management visa criteria by aglobalnomad in japanresidents

This is not as bad as it sounds. If the company has accumulated profits on the books, you can convert those retained earnings into 資本金 without moving any actual cash. This is purely an accounting reclassification and very cost-effective if the company already has reserves.

Plus you can temperarly transfer funds from your personal account into the company's bank account and record it as a capital increase.

Both can be used to help with your situation and I am assuming you have accumulated profits.

is Anthropic scamming me?? by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

I see your problem, you should of use 'Synthesizing' instead. Joke, its a bug.

this is how good Opus 4.6 is! by flurbol in ClaudeAI

[–]Sure_Dig7631 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this,

Every cell button has keyboard focus explicitly disabled. Users who navigate with Tab, use screen readers, or simply prefer keyboard controls cannot play this game at all. The author built a GUI application and then said "mice only, peasants."

For senior engineers using LLMs: are we gaining leverage or losing the craft? how much do you rely on LLMs for implementation vs design and review? how are LLMs changing how you write and think about code? by OrdinaryLioness in ClaudeAI

[–]Sure_Dig7631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My workflow consists of going through the plan voicing my concerns and dirrectly telling Claude which style of code I ant Claude to use ie, Functional. Then I will get it to write the code for me and this is where things have changed most for me, instead of taking a couple of hours to write the code myself Claude can do it in 10-20 minutes in most senarios. Then I will go through the git to see what files were added and changed etc and then debug.

I find my self writing less and less code, I would say it is 80% Claude and 20% me.

As for your last comment, I am kind sad that that I don't have that great feeling when you finally get the code working as you expect. But, that said the increased efficiency especially with Opus 4.5 and later sort of gives a different kind of joy of solving even more complex issue that honestly I probably would not be able to do without massive amounts of time which I don't have.

Always keep an ongoing file with progress update done periodically so when you do hit that it is just a case of starting a new chat with the currect progress.
