Day 47 of Claude Code god mode
I’ve started using Claude Code on May 18th, 2025. I had previously given it a chance back in February, but I had immediately WTF’d after a simple task cost 5 USD back then. When Anthropic announced their 100 USD flat plan in May, I jumped ship as soon as I could.1

I previously had the insight that Claude Code would perform better than Cursor, because the model providers have control over what tool data to include in the dataset, whereas Cursor is approaching the model as an outsider and trying to do trial and error on what kind of interfaces the model would be good at. ↩
Predictions by Anthropic Researchers
Dwarkesh Patel has recently interviewed Sholto Douglas and Trenton Bricken for a second time, and the podcast is very enlightening in terms of how the big AI labs think in terms of their economic strategy:

Auto-generating pull request documentation with Claude Code and GitHub Actions
Anthropic has just released a GitHub Action for integrating Claude Code into your GitHub repo. This lets you do very cool things, like automatically generating documentation for your pull requests after you merge them. Skip to the next section to learn how to install it in your repo.
Working on the weekend
Certain types of work are best done in one go, instead of being split into separate sessions. These are the types of work where it is more or less clear what needs to be done, and the only thing left is execution. In such cases, the only option is sometimes to work over the weekend (or lock yourself in a room without communication), in order not to be interrupted by people.
Don't delete to fix
If you are a developer, you are annoyed by this. If you are a user, you were most likely guilty of this. I am talking reporting that something is broken, AND deleting it.
Warmup and cooldown
One common thing about sports noobs1 is that they don’t warm up before and cool down after an exercise. They might be convinced that it is not necessary, and they also don’t know how to do it properly. They might complain from prolonged injuries, like joint pain.

Satya Nadella on knowledge work
Satya Nadella, shares his thinking on the future of knowledge work (link to YouTube for those who don’t want to read) on Dwarkesh Patel Podcast. He thinks that white collar work will become more like factory work, with AI agents used for end-to-end optimization.
