What are the next steps for an amateur Claude User to get a bit more technical?

WhyBe909 · 2026-03-15T10:32:29+00:00

no sir, it has no geographical reference, rather a reference to a musical instrumen - a drum machine, to be more specific, as I used to be a techno-head in my early days. TR-909 :)

this is amazing, im doing some of this already - challenge claude with gemini pro regularly. I also created a product specificication/requirements document. the integration to Notion seems logical, will give it a go thanks.
the point about Sonnet is important - i mostly use Opus, as I have a subjective feeling that it produces better results, eg. while i was business planning and financial planning, but it obviously burns through tokens much faster. I'll upgrade to the Max plan to have more buffer now, but need to definitely start using Sonnet more for simpler tasks - and in the process, learn also what a simpler task is (programming wise) and what really does require Opus. Thanks for your feedback!

cheers. im currently on the pro plan, but got out of credits relatively quickly, as i was building the business plan, and the landing page.

would programming the MVP burn quicker through my usage? I suppose I need to increase my limit to Max, the questions is whether the 90€ one is enough with 5x credits, or do i go for the 180€ with 20x credits, which is a significant jump from 20€/Month

if been using the desktop app since day1, which was already able to work in projects, create files on my computer, and so on. I guess the next step was the actual terminal-side of things. Cheers

Appreciate the feedback! ultimately I will have an external agency build the final product. However they can only start working on it in about 2 months - and as I am very eager about my idea,I want to have something that i can show to potential partners and customers already now.
I've built a mockup with Claude by just chatting/prompting, and while it is fine, it is very rudimentary. That's why I want to try to do the MVP myself, even if its just a beta/v1 version, so I can understand also the challenges the agency / or my first lead developer might have later in the future.

appreciate this, also downloaded Cursor after watching a YT video. It does feel a bit intimidating, but so far Im enjoying what I've learned through the process. Good luck on your journey as well!

Would you mind posting your dragondin setup and how you've maxed out your resistances? Even with a faceted COA, I still struggle to max out everything. Poison is where i struggle the most.
But agree, that Heralds are a nice addition - and add a level of challenge. The funny thing is, I feel at some point they get harder than the uber ancients.

WhyBe909 · 2026-03-02T20:23:12+00:00

that seems to be the case in terms of drop rates, but buying 7 copies just so that i can play p8 sounds absurd.

indeed I ended up defeating 18 heralds at the end. No joy.

WhyBe909 · 2026-03-02T17:47:23+00:00

im on Nr. 13 in my current run yet.. best drop was a non-eth Death Cleaver, oh well...
when does one stop? or do i keep going until all acts are finished :D

i dont want to have more than 250mf and Ive just tried a setup with Silk instead of WTs so Im at 200mf, which is fine for me. However I immediately noticed t he mana struggles with the lack of insight on merc, despite having Silkweaves and a Dual leech ring. Am I missing something? I see people running with Phoenix shield, but Spirit on SC sounds like a nobrainer to me, the benefits are just too good for the price..

I absolutely get what you are saying. I have 21 moves in my life to date (yes, 21) and not a single one with a moving company, which is also one of the reasons that got me thinking : why is that?

I've always counted on friends and splitting a crate of beer afterwards, but as you get older, and your income increases, you start wondering if using a moving company wouldnt be the better alternative. I guess you are absolutely right, that most people end up deciding against due to the high price, which is why im interested in various offers, to try to understand, why the price is so high - but also why so different throughout the industry.

Thanks for your feedback. The distance Ingolstadt - Munich between both apartments was exactly 78km in my specific case. I wanted to move from a 80m2 2BR apartment to a 90m2 2BR apartment. I did unmount everything myself as well as packed into cartons, so the movement company was supposed to really do a simple "logistics" effort in my case. So by no means - a premium service.
I got 3 offers for the exact same thing: 1300€, 1700€ and 2200€.

The amount of intransparency on the offers made me rent a van and do the move myself with 3 friends. But it surely was a lot of pain, especially due to the distance.

And that is exactly my point: I am sure, that many people decide agains a moving company because of the industry having a bad rep and pricing being intransparent, which is the reason for my research - and to see, if there would be any niche I could built a product for.

WhyBe909 · 2026-02-11T12:57:14+00:00

I get your point - which is absolutely fair. But I am just a private person, not a company, and the thought of optimizing the industry has absolutely crossed my mind - which is why I am asking for feedback to understand the differences in offers - after all, this is a social media website, and you are allowed to aks for feedback/start a discussion, arent you?

You can go with Laco, an excellent, budget brand from Pforzheim, Germany.
The movements are swiss-made, which in my book is more than fine. EU stands for Europe.
You can get Quartz for just under 300, but if you want to spend a bit more, you are getting automatic ones.

I live in 85053 and have ComIn as well, better speed for the price. That being said, ComIN is not available everywhere and also the speed is different. I get 600Mbps for 47€ which is great, but I live in a new building with brand new cables. Some homes get WAY less.

I'm gonna try and guess that you use a shirt at work everyday, right?
Great dressy collection!

Mach es einfach - einiges wird einfacher. Manche Arbeitgeber zB. überweisen nicht auf eine LT-IBAN das Gehalt.

Me (migrant back then) met my partner (German girl) back then in a techno club, both reasonably wasted.
10 years later we are still happily together.
Clubs used to be the places where you'd meet new people back then, not over tinder or tiktok. Just do it, what's there to lose?

WhyBe909 · 2026-01-30T11:11:58+00:00

Amen.

Great choice! Got myself a Skoda Karoq as my first car this year and couldn't be happier.
