It's impossible to tell if this is AI or not. Another version of Poe's law. The only thing to do is assume everything is AI, just like you must assume all posts have ulterior (generalluy profit-driven) motives, all posters have a conflict of interest, etc.

Maybe the only thing to do is stop trying to understand posters' motivations, stop reading things charitably, stop responding, just look for things that are interesting (and be sure to check sources).


There are dozens of us.


If I tell Claude to "revert that last change, it isn't right, try this instead" and Claude hasn't committed recently it will happily `git checkout ...` and blow away all recent changes instead of reverting the "last change".

(Which, it's not wrong or anything -- I did say "revert that change" -- it's just annoying. And telling `CLAUDE.md` to commit more often doesn't work consistently, because Claude is a dummy sometimes).


I haven't tried it, but theoretically one could use Claude Code's hooks facility to enforce committing at some determined thresholds.


I use it (with jj but should be the same with git). It tells Claude to commit after every Write tool use. It's a bit to small steps but I then usually just squash them afterwards. I haven't yet found a good automatic heuristic for when to tell Claude to commit (or directly auto-commit, but I like that Claude writes the commit message)


I had this exact issue. I switched to Blink on iOS which seems inferior to Termius in every way except that scrolling tmux actually works.


I’m the Blink developer and really curious. Which way do you think Blink is inferior? I think the ssh/mosh tooling is way more powerful, keyboard config, etc. But would love to improve what I can. Currently working on new UI and better access to hosts, so it is a good time.


Sorry to have missed this. First, props that Blink is indeed superior in that it actually works.

My recollection is that the primary way Termius "feels better" is the pre-terminal UI (configuring hosts, etc).

But I'm still a daily Blink user, so I don't 100% recall what Termius did to make me think it was nicer, I just remember that scrolling was fucked so I gave up on it.


Can you share that part of your prompt? Initial attempts are failing for me, but that would be a great outcome.


Charitably, this is a very naive take for unstructured bank / credit card transactions. Even if you use a paid service for elaboration you will not write a 50-line, or even 500-line, list of declarative rules to solve this problem.

    "FOUND IT!" - Claude probably didn't find it


I almost never get all my K-1s in order in time to file. So I basically always file for an extension.


Adding on to this. Had one K-1 come late and my CPAs strongly advised filing for an extension to give them enough time to do thorough reviews. Didn’t save me any money, they still told me roughly how much to send to the IRS immediately.


Somehow all of my K-1s came early this year. It's the first time in 20 years that I didn't have to file an extension!


> so I’ve been resistant to putting down roots

Question about this. My partner is similar -- if we aren't going to be somewhere "forever" they are hesitant to do any "work" to socialize etc. because "we are leaving soon". In what ways do you perceive "putting down roots" as somehow unappealing if you don't know how long you'll be there?

(I almost said "how long you'll be around" -- but none of us know that, so really the question is even more pointed!)


Mostly, it boils down to how I’ve traditionally been terrible at maintaining connections to people who aren’t in my immediate vicinity (and conversely, most people I’ve met have also not been great at this). I can count the number of post-move non-immediate-family that I either stay connected to or don’t need to stay constantly connected to because picking up where we left off years ago is effortless on a single hand. It feels bad to make a bunch of friends that I probably won’t be able to keep if I move.

Other than that, if it’s likely that I’ll want/need to move some time in the near-ish future, it doesn’t make sense to build a situation that would make that future move more difficult (emotionally or otherwise) than it needs to be. Having a sizable social circle established prior to moving introduces room for messy hesitance and regret.
