_sharp··on Opus 5.0 drives incoherence into the stratosphere
Haven't tried it yet, but they just added a concise mode

_sharp··on Agent Skills
Right, just like all the productivity lost when people stopped using paper ledgers to mess around with these so-called 'databases'
_sharp··on Why engineers can't be rational about programming languages
The point of the article was to choose your language based on economic impact, rather than technical debates that are a facade of an engineer's identity beliefs.

With that pov, I don't see any contradiction by saying the language is an important decision, and rewriting your project in a new language is probably a bad idea.

_sharp··on My experience with Claude Code after two weeks of adventures
You should consider documenting your durability requirements, failure modes, important context related to the feature/component your working on, as you would a junior engineer. Then, you can re-use the context documents. If the AI doesn't know what your expectations are, it will just assume you need a PoC, and give you PoC code quality.
_sharp··on How I use my terminal
This is amazing! Thank you!!

The quickfix window is so small, so I added the "-c only" option to make it the only window that first pops up. Then made it a function so it's easier to call:

``` vgrep() { rg --vimgrep "$1" | vim -c cb! -c copen -c only - } ```

$> vgrep "restore_tool"

_sharp··on The PostgreSQL documentation and the limitations of community
Our team recently adopted the Diataxis framework, I guess. We followed this guide:

https://documentation.divio.com/

We've been referring to it as the Divio system though, which appears to be the same thing.

_sharp··on Please don't use Slack for FOSS projects (2015)
I've used RocketChat at a previous company, basically a clone of slack. I didn't have to manage it, but it seemed to work great.
