stuart73547373··on Ask HN: Anyone else experiencing lower quality in Claude Code since a few weeks?
for me it got dramatically worse. it cant read whole files of concatenated code anymore. seems like its attention is much smaller. doing lots of piecemeal behind-the-scenes cmd line stuff now instead of just seeming to "understand" everything in one go. somewhat catastrophic for me. so bad that i was surprised to discover that chatgpt 5 is still worse

stuart73547373··on Anatomy of a credit card rewards program

this would be great if everyone was rich enough to afford to pay for their services with money.

but it would cut off a lot of services and opportunities for everyone else who is able to pay with their attention (to ads) instead

>Can I take this a step further and say that advertising is the true problem here?

no? promoting stuff with a plausible chance of adding value to someone's life is not bad imho
