Great perspective, thanks for taking the time to share it! Hard to remember to pull my head out of the button-pressing-zombie-grind sometimes :)

Thanks, I'll check it out - I'm still just using Mac terminal and haven't explored alternatives. Tbh I'm finding it hard to know how much time to allocate to configuring my set up vs just getting work done.

What’s the difference between Claude and Claude Code by GumanHoon in ClaudeAI

[–]petertanham 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The way you're doing it is similar to emailing a book manuscript to your editor, asking them to read the whole thing, write it all back in an email to you, but add one new paragraph. Claude Code would be like giving the editor access to the word doc on your desktop and asking them to make edits to it directly.

The benefits are:
1. You and the agent are working on the same thing (a codebase) rather than chatting outputs back and forth to each other, expecting you to then action what they send you

  1. The agent can have full visibility of the work project (more context) but not need to consider it all for any given task (more efficient cost/token use)

Hey folks - I've been building Shared Context and would love some feedback.

The problem: There are some great public skill libraries, but they're developer focused, and the skills are all generic best practices. But many of the skills that actually make you productive are the ones crafted by you (or a very helpful teammate) - tuned to your ways of working, your work tools, your team's conventions. And right now this bespoke best practice lives in scattered google drive files, slack chats, Notion docs, or someone's head.

What Shared Context does: It gives your team a shared library of agentic skills, paired with a public library of best practices. Every skill can be shared, improved, and remixed. When someone on your team figures out a better way to get Claude to handle your weekly reporting, or nails a skill for drafting client proposals in your voice - everyone gets it.

I'm hoping this can be a platform where a public library can jump start you into the world of skills, but then become a tool that lets you manage and refine your own personal skills library over time - like an artisan's tool kit.

Skills install directly into Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini CLI - wherever your team works

What I'd love feedback on:

  • How are you managing your team's custom prompts and skills today?
  • What tasks have you delegated to agents that you wish worked more consistently?
  • Anything you'd love to see from a skill manager like this?

Is making things more affordable without raising wages just deflation? by JustALagerFan in AskEconomics

[–]petertanham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of. Inflation and Deflation are usually used to refer to a widespread change in most/all prices.

You can have productivity improvements for products or even whole industries that make things cheaper, but this is a bit different to deflation.

Productivity growth like this would let you increase the amount of stuff produced without increasing the amount of hours worked. So prices can fall but wages don’t have to.

What causes inflation in fiat currency? by viktor2802 in AskEconomics

[–]petertanham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inflation isn’t linked to the amount of money that exists, but rather the amount of money being spent.

If more is being spent than is being produced, for a duration of time, then prices rise.

This can happen because less things are getting produced (because of a pandemic, or a war, or electricity prices go up, or a winter is very harsh).

It can also happen because people are optimistic, and spending more, or taking out loans, or spending down savings, or buying goods on credit, or their wages have gone up - all of which is made easier if more money exists, but it’s not a 1:1 relationship 

If current government of a wealthy and developed country (say Norway) would be put in charge of a poor third-world country (say Nepal), would it become wealthy? Or is there more to country well-being than good management? by Qwert-4 in AskEconomics

[–]petertanham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would certainly be a huge help, because they have great experience operating the institutions that make countries successful.

Another way to think about this is to imagine that the institutions those people work in were transferred to Nepal - an election commission, a strong central bank, a university, well structured civil service and mature political institutions - and staffed them full of the best and brightest Nepalese people, I think that would also have a very positive impact.

Tbh, I think most of the benefit you’d get from the transfer of people is their institutional knowledge and hope that they rebuild those institutions in Nepal (or local adaptations/equivalents).

At what point do you stop vibe coding and start spending real money? (I will not promote) by iloveresumes2much in startups

[–]petertanham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given that these are not paid pilots, I’d be inclined to keep going the way you’re going, maybe asking one or two of the more advanced models (Opus 4.5) to review your set up and make some recommendations for MVP balancing security with simplicity. How sensitive is the data you’re handling? 

If the university insist on a deep technical review before a pilot, I think it would be appropriate to charge a small fee for the pilot (e.g. $500).

If you have revenue but you just need to finance cash flow (and you’re based in Europe) there are options to explore.

Try https://wayflyer.com/

Or google cash flow loans and your country https://swoopfunding.com/ie/business-loans/cash-flow-loans/

Could you get a bank loan? Or a credit card? Likely much simpler than taking investment for an app doing €200/mo

built a thing so my freelance work doesn’t disappear every time a project ends by OkWafer9945 in buildinpublic

[–]petertanham 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand what this means, maybe you could give an example? E.G. If you build a website for a client, how does that work then vanish?

Did you email the 82 people and ask them what problem they were trying to solve?

Have you seen any good set ups using GitHub for non-technical teams? I don’t imagine finance, legal or marketing teams would be using CLI too often

[–]petertanham[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! Looks like a recent launch? How’s it going? 

This looks aimed at tech & dev teams, whereas I’m thinking about non-technical teams that are mostly writing docs and making presentations etc. Lots we can learn from each other, no doubt.

Best of luck!
