vasili111··on Claude 2.1
Am I only one that thinks that Claude 2 is not bad for programming questions? I do not think it is best one for programming questions but I do not think that it is bad too. I have received multiple times very good response from Claude 2 on Python and SQL.
vasili111··on Ask HN: Comprehensive course/book data analysis
I am not aware about specific books about doing data analysis in command line.

Also, I am doing data analysis at my everyday job and I have not heard anyone doing analysis in command line and I do not see reason why anybody would do that. Why I am saying this is that if you are interested in learning doing data analysis in general and do not have very specific reasons to do it in command line I will recommend to not waste your time on learning doing it in command line and concentrate to learn data analysis tools that use UI.

vasili111··on Ask HN: Quick question for developers about low code/no code tools
I personally try to to avoid to work with low code and prefer to work with code. But I understand that for some people low code can be better and I do not see anything bad with it. Below is some information why I do not like low code:

* Inability to easily run everything (all code) and see what does not works.

* Possibility of accidently click something and unintentionally make undesired change that may go unnoticed.

* Inability to quickly scroll through all code and instead the need to click multiple menus (some of which can be accidently missed) to get understanding how everything works.

* Usually the low code systems have limitations of what can be done and it is very hard to overcome the limitations.

* New AI technologies can help you with code (I am not using them everyday but sometimes I am finding them useful) and with low code they are not much helpful.

vasili111··on [Ask HN] How many submissions have you accidentally flagged?
I recently flagged one and immediately noticed that. I realized that I may have done that accidently other times too. I went in my profile and found a list of all flagged topics and I saw that I had accidently flagged multiple submissions over time.

I think it will be good to have with flagging some sort of confirmation that system asks users to confirm flagging in order to prevent unintended flagging that as I saw on my personal example happens over time and gets unnoticed.
