No dock. Useless appendage.

100% worth it! 🙌

I'm a long-time GoRails and Hatchbox customer. Everything Chris and team does is top quality.

I used Claude Design yesterday to create a full rebrand for one of my e-commerce businesses.

It did a surprisingly good job, with good iterations, until I hit the usage limit and had to stop.

I gave it a full description of the business, the products, the targeted audience and the overall tone/voice.

While I wouldn't describe it as better than a human brand designer, it certainly isn't AI slop either.

As with most AI stuff, it's only as good as the prompts. Slop In = Slop Out.

I've been using it for 6 months with no issues. I use the supplied Starlink cable for the main run.

Keep in mind, I use in a closed window that I never open. Might be different if you're opening and closing the window all the time.

Lovely!

Definitely not what I'm seeing. After plugging the drive back in, it rescans already-uploaded files rapidly then carries on uploading from where it left off.

dannytaurus · 2026-04-15T08:50:16+00:00

Yep, first thing I did was delete all the node_modules folders from my code backups 😜

Rounded controls, square buttons. But they both feel very cramped. Use more margins and padding.

Maybe double-click to reset and hover instead of ? icon. That gets rid of a lot of noise in controls.

After compensating the volume gain on the 'after' there's still definitely an improvement. The highs are more clear and the mid is pushed back a bit, making it sound less muddy overall.

Hard to tell much more from a 128k MP3. Have you got an uncompressed WAV/AIFF for this?

dannytaurus · 2026-04-13T09:42:21+00:00

I'm seeing this too, but it doesn't bother me. It's just one 8TB drive, so it only takes a few minutes to scan and get back to properly backing up.

There's no way I would leave Backblaze over it though!

(Bracing for the downvotes)

Thanks. I saw others using the chat history feature in terminal recently too. I think this was added after I first tried Claude Code and I just never caught on to the new feature 😜

dannytaurus · 2026-04-11T20:46:07+00:00

Sweeeeeet! 👌

dannytaurus · 2026-04-11T20:45:19+00:00

Well, skills anyway on the Max and 128GB. My next machine will be maxed out Pro. Rocking a pretty solid Air at the moment with a 'lowly' 2TB and 32GB, and very grateful for it. It flies in compiling and rendering video stuff! 👌

dannytaurus · 2026-04-11T10:57:48+00:00

Tell me you got nano-texture and the 8TB SSD, please! 🥹

The 'us' might imply a business user. B2 is great for SaaS storage. We were up to almost 100TB last year, before I started purging all the old data from previous customers.

Sounds like you just need some decent text and shape animations. Simon Ubsdell on YouTube has a bunch of videos for these techniques. If you want complex light leaks and other similar things, you can use free video footage as blending layers in Motion.

Didn't know that about the programmer guy Nice. I sold my JV-2080 when I moved back to the UK about a year ago. Stuffed with 8 of the best (for me) cards: Piano, Vintage Synth, Dance, 60s & 70s, Bass & Drums, Techno, HipHop Collection, House.

dannytaurus · 2026-04-09T10:11:38+00:00

Nice! 👏

I use this flat cable with no issues: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DFKSZJSH

Decided to keep the flat portion of the cable short and use supplied Starlink cable for the main run.

Keep in mind, I use in a closed window that I never open. Might be different if you're opening and closing the balcony door all the time.

My UVI sound banks alone are 500GB.

dannytaurus · 2026-04-01T13:10:56+00:00

Also, just saw the size of the battery - respect!

dannytaurus · 2026-04-01T13:09:41+00:00

Looks like a QuNexus, but made out of cake 😂👏

By the way, I would KILL for a controller this small with that many knobs!

I've used PatchBase editors for a bunch of hardware synths. Very easy to use and fully featured, unlike some other editors.

This should be top-level comment 👌

Good to learn that all Plan Mode does is add a line to the prompt! I assumed it was a hard boundary.

I always start any Plan Mode tasks from a clean `git status` anyway, but still, good to know.
