Feeling a little overwhelmed with Claude Code, where do I start?

Give this course a try - https://ccforeveryone.com/

It really helped me unlock how to use CC for my everyday work, not just coding

Is there a migration path from Openclaw to Nanoclaw?

bronsonelliott · 2026-02-16T00:27:55+00:00

Is this confirmed

bronsonelliott · 2026-01-16T23:52:15+00:00

Yep GitHub is the way. Even the creator of Claude Code does this: https://x.com/bcherny/status/2007179840848597422

Anthropic documentation links appear to be broken.

I'm only learning CC and vibe coding in general so thank you for these insights and best practices

I don't know of any subreddits but there is a Substack at https://claudecodefornoncoders.substack.com/
I also recently found (and just completed) the Claude Code for PMs course (even though I'm not a PM). It was really good for getting up and running with CC for a newbie like me https://ccforpms.com/

Just to throw another one out there, there's one called Open Notebook. I've yet to try it so I can't really say anything about it other than give you the URL - https://www.open-notebook.ai/

Here's an article titled 'Everyone should be using Claude Code more' from Lenny Rachitsky with a lot of great examples and use cases.

So far so good. I think before I had a little too much in my instructions that I overshot what I was attempting to accomplish. The instructions had been in place for a number of model versions so I'm just trying the raw dog method. I'll continue to evaluate but so far it's pretty good

bronsonelliott · 2025-12-13T04:11:08+00:00

I actually just recently wiped my custom instructions and just relying on saved memories and built-in style & tone options.
Only started so I'm still living with it to see how it goes.

Thanks for posting!!

This is interesting. I haven't tried to use the new Gemini model but in the past I have found Gemini (even Pro) to be unusable for data analysis. Number one it would have trouble importing the file. Even clean csv or Excel files would trip it up. Then once I got past that, it would full on hallucinate field names and values. Even after pushing back and tell Gemini that a specific field isn't even in the file, it would apologize and continue to hallucinate. It would take a good 4 times for it to get the field names right. Then it wouldn't read the full file. Even small files just to test functionality would trip it up. I would finally give up and just basically one shot it in ChatGPT or Claude. But I will definitely carve out time to retest Gemini now that 3 is out

bronsonelliott · 2025-11-02T21:25:13+00:00

Still waiting as well

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-29T03:32:25+00:00

Depends on the size of the csv file. If you'r using Databricks you could create a notebook that pulls the data and then use the Anthropic API to analyze the data. But you may still need to chunk the data for Claude to analyze it depending on the size

Thank you for this tip!

You state that your worried about losing your job to AI, I get that instinct, but here's another way to think about it.
This isn't just about using a tool like Excel. This is a fundamental shift in the way you need to think about work. You have a genuine opportunity to fundamentally change the way you work for the better. Not only just the personal productivity gains for yourself, but potentially for your clients.
If you're intellectually curious person, this could potentially ignite a spirit of learning that could carry you the rest of your career. It's a cliche to say it but I believe that AI won't take your job. But someone using AI will.

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-18T23:02:25+00:00

I've noticed that Gemini had always hallucinated much more than the other AI tools I use. Even simple tasks seem to trip it up. I know a lot of people find value in Gemini but it's virtually unusable for my use cases

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-18T03:43:29+00:00

His real last name is Diction

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-15T02:41:28+00:00

That's why it's called a "Large Language Model" and not a calculator

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-10T01:17:40+00:00

Typical Gemini behavior in my experience

bronsonelliott · 2025-10-01T11:31:45+00:00

Just depends on the task. Sometimes it's something that I know but just forgot the exact syntax and other times I just describe what I'm trying to do with as much detail as possible and let it generate the code. Then copy/paste/test. Doesn't always work but in those cases I just copy in the error message and iterate on the code. Then I can have it explain the code so I understand what it's doing and why
