Anthropic made the most popular harness for developers.

Anthropic made the most popular desktop tool for AI automation.


Not sure popularity necessarily suggests it's good, but possibly just what people have most heard of or is easiest to setup with. This is going to be even more true now that Claude subscriptions are going to be essentially vendor locked.

Given how far ahead OpenAI was in mindshare, monthly users, and revenue over Anthropic when Claude Code came out, I think we can conclude there's at least some substance behind claims of Claude Code's better product quality.

It definitely suggests it.

Yes. Gemeni's web interface was atrocious even when the model was the best frontier.

And codex still uses phrases and syntax in prose ostensibly for the user as though they forgot people are actively reading this stuff.

Product is unquestionably where Anthropic excels. It is what carried it through periods where its thinking model lagged.


I indeed remember.

HTTP 2+ (supported by every web browser) obviates sprite sheets.

They were a useful hack, but still a hack.


I went to prove you wrong…

And you’re exactly right.

It’s not “one or more.”

It’s “one or not one.”

Need two or not two.


Hotdog or not hotdog.

Federal Trade Commission

An acronym as common as GDPR.


I guess it’s reference to the fact that the blog writer lives in London, so the US meaning of FTC doesn’t matter when a someone in Europe promotes a US service

I'm just making a point the whole world doesn't revolve around America.

It kinda does though

There will also be obnoxious farts who say "the world doesn't revolve around the EU" every time GDPR is mentioned.

Of course it’s nice.

But that changes things


“Society” also demands that men earn more money than women by the measure

Or, trade your services for what people will pay.

Children will pay nothing, same as very mentally ill or extremely disabled people.

> A few weeks ago, I tried to explain to someone what Microsoft Copilot is. I couldn’t

It means Microsoft AI.

Hope that helps!
