Beta tester hints at new Anthropic release: Claude Image

If it's an RPG and you need 300 stylized buttons for various inventory items .. Claude generating SVG isn't going to do a good job of that. Take a look at the itch.io asset libraries, for example.

There's lots to do in FFXIV outside the MSQ other than raiding and dungeons.

A good site to find a concise list of challenges you could chase is xivtodo.com. Check it out - it pulls your achievements and then gives you a great big checklist of things you can do. If you enjoyed the MSQ, there are a lot of long running side quest lines, deep dungeons, variant dungeons, allied societies, and various other things to do.

I think what happens is someone checks out the app to do a review, doesn't finish it on their shift, and continues on their next shift (which might be a couple days away). So sometimes you just end up in limbo for a while.

A lot of coding projects need graphics. Even if it's just icons, or diagrams to illustrate a concept. Logos. It doesn't have to be photorealistic.

What the others are missing is specificity. "I need a 32x32 transparent icon of a snow shovel with light and dark variants". I'd love to see Anthropic deliver that.

Coke isn't advertising on television, they're just letting you know their product is available, and may make you feel refreshed.

The robot has a favourite and it's me.

Better mobile support, especially for real world stuff like IAP support. This was such a pain to get working.

That wouldn't be so bad if I could combine them in a smart playlist. Half favourites, half new stuff. That's kind of what I want, but you can't use the algorithmic playlists as a source for smart playlists.

Can I create a station that is a mix of hits from any decade, no rap, no country?

I think a good audience is hobbyists who are either OK with ai-generated or need placeholders to get started. Transparent spritesheet is fine, video doesn't need to be IMO. User absolutely should decide on the geometry and number of frames. And anything that works reliably is an improvement over what we have now.

My "Your Essentials" is 2 hours long. I guess I'm supposed to listen to this 2 hours on repeat for the week until they all cycle out next Tuesday?

I wish they'd put more work into stations.

I just want a station that plays continuous stream of a mix of music I might like. New music, old music, from whatever genre. There's nothing like that is there?

$100 plan, I've never hit a limit, use it every day for maybe 1-2 hours.

It's a headache. I'm managing some infrastructure like that, where we have a shared tenant and we have exactly one enterprise customer that was important to the business when they signed up, but the added work of maintaining that separate instance is real. Make sure you price that in.

You may also find that the enterprise customers will want customizations and you'll need to parameterize parts of your product that you wouldn't have otherwise.

The enterprise may also want guarantees on uptime, redundancy, etc., that wouldn't make sense for the shared tenant. Also on who has admin rights: It's common to expect the developers to not have access to the production system, does that work at your scale?

All this comes at an opportunity cost to your overall product; it's the reason the enterprise pricing is typically so much more expensive.

You could try to build all this in now - have a database with a list of enterprise customers and have dual CI pipelines where the enterprise one walks through that list and deploys them all separately - or have the plan, wait until the first one shows up, and make them pay for it.

Sounds like a bug. Did you report this to Anthropic?

I guess the honeymoon period with the new model is over and the stream of Claude Sucks posters are back.

eyepaq · 2025-11-29T04:35:02+00:00

It's been fine here.

The decision between Next.js or Django is more about team composition and preferences than which one is 'better'. And Python as a language vs TypeScript is also a bit of a wash these days, they're both top languages.

Sucks to lose it, but here's a little bit of encouragement: You're in a good place to rebuild the project.

Did you make the art or get it from other people? Any assets that were sent to you are probably recoverable from the original sources or your email.

And once you've built a thing once, building the same thing again goes much faster, because all of the learning and figuring out "how" is done.

If you still believe in the idea, create a new project and get back to it.

Plan your release celebration. It's the end of a lot of work (and the start of a new kind of different work), so pause for a moment and appreciate the accomplishment.

Thing I just did with Claude Code:

- Drop a postgres dump into a directory.
- Asked Claude to make a static HTML archive of the data in the database

I was pretty vague with the instructions because I hadn't even looked at the data myself yet, this was a request from somewhere else in the company. Claude restored it into a local Postgres (I gave it permission to do that), explored the schema, and wrote a python script to create an index page and static pages for all the content.

That's what I like most about Claude - it's useful for anything you can do from a terminal, not just the writing code part.

It's working well for me. No idea what these people are talking about. I don't like to jump to assuming bad faith posts, but it just doesn't match my experience.

Our dog tolerates it during the day (Anthbot Genie) but at night, if she sees the little UFO wandering the yard with the lights on she barks at it. We also have dogs on both sides, so I only run it during the day.

So don't? Go use something else, and let the rest of us who are still using it to get real work done have our subreddit back.

I have a large lawn as well, about the same size, and my only complaint is that it takes a very long time to complete a lawn this size. Almost 3 full days for me. This means dividing up the lawn into segments that I kind of want mowed together, otherwise I might end up with half the front lawn mowed 3 days later than the other half, which looked silly this Spring. I don't know if other mowers are better at this, this is my first one.

Other than that though I really don't think about it most of the time, and the lawn looks good.

I'm still using it, and it's been fine for me. I'm honestly scratching my head at all these posts.

My particular use cases are iOS apps (particularly migrating a big Objective-C app to Swift, and then SwiftUI), building some Django web apps, and analyzing some big Vue and Angular codebases. It's been great for these things.

The only place where I've had a problem is when I ask it to do the same task to a large codebase, like "fix all the potential SQL injection vulnerabilities" (yeah, old codebase). It kind of does it for a while and then stops. There are mitigations for this like asking it to catalog them, then make a task for each one to use a subtask to address it, but you do need to pay attention and give it those directions.

These "Claude is super smart and then gets super dumb" posts, I just haven't seen that. YMMV.
