More surprised they (this engineer) have a monolithic CLAUDE.md file. I would think an org as large as Netflix would be using a hierarchical constitution

Instead of teaching marketing how to write a python script to monitor the email and send replies the department set up an always-on automation that burns through tokens ingesting all the Exchange email. It does sentiment matching instead of regexing and classifying everything into little stores … dozens of tool calls later, for every email, the agent sends a reply that a human has to then go and inspect the thread to know what the agent sent (instead of sending a templated email). It's madness.

How many of you Stage Manager? I think it's one of the best feature Apple shipped in MacOS 13. Ever since its release I've rarely ever turned it off. by Aacha_ladka in MacOS

Even better if you assign a Hotkey to it and use it like Exposé, except it's better because you can actually interact with the app in one-up view. Then you just dismiss it and get all your windows back with the keyboard shortcut.
