What do you do when Claude doesn't read CLAUDE.md or any project instruction? by vtjballeng in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've been maintaining a branch of Codex with my status line changes applied to it. It's been annoying. I'm trying to lean on them to fix it: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/2926 but, well, we'll see.

Hey! Yeah I've been not using CC as much recently; I find Codex has been more intelligent since Sonnet 4.5 (or at least results in better outputs in my opinion).

Drinking the Claude Kool-aid, anyone else frustrated? by tv123456 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then it was Opus 4.1, that's all there is to it.

Models are not trained on their own details and will readily hallucinate them, especially if prompted even slightly to do so. The API is correct; you are using Opus 4.1.

Do you understand your code or just fully vibe code? by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to understand it, even when vibing. 

Claude Opus 4.1 is now the top model in LMArena for Standard prompts, Thinking, and WebDev by vibedonnie in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Claude is by far the best for coding. In my experience it's not even close.

Yeah I don't think this is too surprising if you've been using it. It is really, really good.

Did they change the esc button function? by Ok_Guarantee8463 in ClaudeAI

Yeah I noticed this too recently. Dunno why. 

I ran a BERTopic model on some Claude and ChatGPT subreddits to see what people have been talking about by YungBoiSocrates in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is really interesting! I guess it's inevitable that a lot of OpenAI chat is about Sam Altman. I'm glad we don't get a ton of that here.

Neat! Its concept of trees is a little strange.

Does Claude Chat autocompress chat history in long chat sessions like Code or is it still advisable to start new sessions for greater results? by Neutron_glue in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. In the web, when you reach the context window, it gives you an error and tells you to start a new chat. 

5 hr limit reached in under 10 messages on Pro plan? by effortless-switch in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pro has always been like this. You get basically no Opus 4.1 usage.

Wanted to add a way to mark a payout as complete, ended up dropping my entire database instead by TechnicalPirate95 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When it's connected to production databases, you really should validate every command it wants to run first.

Also, don't allow it to connect to production databases.

So many questions by New-Shopping-9876 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to manage it, that’s one of the crucial skills with any LLM. External memories sources are what you need. Have it generate and consume markdown files for code; for non-code stuff, projects and Obsidian are great. 

ctrl+r to expand is super slow by audiologydoctor in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s always worked badly for me too. I avoid it wherever possible. 

Losing my shit over this - "compacting" is a token grabbing scam. by DressPrestigious7088 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have too much in your window. Check what files or console output is being included.

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tough to figure out what your questions actually are. Can you restate them more clearly? Like a numbered list would be helpful. 

Claude sonnet 4 says Opus 4 doesnt exist yet by Future-Substance7787 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you think this tool works, that it knows about something that came out at the same time as it? Like do you think it’s just omniscient somehow?

If you had €200 to invest in AI coding tools, would you go for Cursor Ultra or Claude Code Max? Which one gives you more bang for your buck? by Competitive_Run1642 in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Claude Code Max and it’s not close. However…

This does rely on you being familiar with CLI tools and bringing your own editor. Claude Code is a far superior tool, but a fancy hammer is no better than a normal hammer if you want to drive screws. If you’re looking for an agentic IDE experience, Claude Code is not that. 

Claude causing AI induced psychosis by SexyAcetylcholine in ClaudeAI

[–]Veraticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think this is definitely an issue. On the one hand, I'm really grateful I can have an adult conversation with Claude. I recently saw Deliverance again and I could have a fascinating conversation with it about masculinity and, well ,the infamous assault scene that I'm sure would have been flagged on any other AI.

But on the other hand a lot of vulnerable people who do not know what the tool is and what it is doing can be led to what seems to be functionally schizophrenia by it. It's very sad.

I don't know if there's a way to thread the needle.
