Claude Code CLI has an agents view that lets you manage multiple sessions in parallel. I literally only ever start claude with `claude agents` these days, and use left arrow to go back to that view from any single session.
What do you disagree with? Your third sentence disagrees with your second sentence, and I can't tell which part of my comment your first sentence disagrees with.
This made me realize that forums existed only because there was somebody willing to pay for domain, hosting and maintenance with money and time. As a result most had a bus factor of 1. All the forums I know died with their maintainer moving on - and even forums "resurrected" by a community member had that exact problem. There is space for a fully distributed forum that can't die with its maintainer.
What a blast from the past. Seeing Knoppix on my room mate's PC in 2004 is what led to a 20+ year ongoing adventure with Linux, Debian, gaming on Linux, compiling games with a friggin compiler and automake, programming, it all started with that distro.
My point isn't about that, though. My point is if you start a blog post with "The C string library", my confidence in your ability to discuss the topic is shot before I even finish reading the sentence.
Starting with "The C string library" made me instantly tune out. C has a standard library, which has some string-related functions. There is no "C string library".
This seems to be a critique of "Can Tech Legends Find the Liar? (Mafia
Episode 1)" on Youtube but critiqued from a "nerd subculture" angle, which is a thing in the USA, I guess? As a European, this took me a moment to figure it out.
I asked it how to configure haproxy, a tool that I had heard in passing about, and it gave me back exact working configuration syntax for my use case. Today that seems very mundane, but first time that happened, and I didn't have to google, read docs, or worst case sift through code, that blew my mind.
Paper went over my head but is this in any way related to my experience of Claude Opus 4.8 using increasingly terse language with very short, overloaded words? Lately I've been having trouble parsing the things it writes about my own code, it's using the kind of compressed language that you see typically in git commit message subject lines but relentless, always on.
> I think $my_species deserves to be debased in part because it's awfully egocentric and insist on being special in the universe.
This is a scary viewpoint to hold, for a human. If you despise humans, that's scary for me, as a human reader of Hacker News. Surprised to see this take unchallenged. I think we can recognize flaws in parts of humanity without wanting it "debased".
Started in 2005. Never ever did anyone complain about UB in my years of writing C code and patching other people's C code. I knew it exists - as a spec quirk. (Admittedly, never wrote a compiler and never used anything except gcc and clang.)
Tried making an MCP server with Antigravity CLI. Antigravity CLI suffers from an identity crisis caused by a tool/ecosystem change: "I am unsure if I should be reading Gemini documentation, Gemini CLI documentation, Antigravity documentation or Antigravity CLI documentation". It couldn't really correctly answer how I should be registering the MCP server in its own system until I googled it.
I have never in my 20 years of writing C heard so much about undefined behavior as I have in the past 6 months on Hacker News. It has never entered the conversation. You write the code. If it doesn't work, you debug it and apply a fix or a workaround. Why does the idea of undefined behavior in C get to the front page so consistently?
