@sodawhite_dev: How to put it? Claude Code still underestimates the wisdom of the masses. There's a Chinese saying: the higher the policy, the craftier the countermeasure. As virtue rises one foot, vice rises ten. Seriously, can't Claude be more generous?

How should I put it? Claude Code still underestimates the wisdom of the masses.
There’s a Chinese saying: “The higher-ups have their policies, and the lower-downs have their countermeasures.” Another goes: “As the law rises one foot, the loophole rises ten.”
Seriously, can’t Claude be a bit more gracious?

@vincemask: Wow, I had no idea CLAUDE.md had so many tricks. I've been writing it all wrong.
The author reflects on common misconceptions about CLAUDE.md, pointing out that instead of piling on information, one should compress decision criteria, constrain execution boundaries, and consolidate high-frequency rules to improve the efficiency of code agents like Claude Code.

The article analyzes Anthropic's 400,000-session report on Claude Code, pointing out that AI programming tools are changing the division of labor between humans and AI. Domain knowledge is more important than coding ability. Expert users can enable AI to perform more complex tasks, while verification and task decomposition capabilities become core competitive advantages.
@zhanlin990410: Don't tell Claude "do this." Don't tell Claude "write code." Don't tell Claude "fix this bug." Don't treat a Ferrari-level AI like a taxi. 8 prompts you can copy and paste directly:
This article shares 8 advanced prompting techniques for Claude, advising users to avoid vague instructions to fully leverage the AI's potential.
@xiaohu: Claude Code's father's own CLAUDE.md is now just two lines... Claude Code team discusses "less is more" sharing how to communicate with models as capabilities increase: "Don't fight the model by adding more, because each generation of models gets stronger. What you painstakingly build today will soon be useless."
Claude Code team shares best practices: CLAUDE.md should be as short as possible and regularly cleared; insists on CLI over GUI because models improve too fast; using AI to fix bugs is already remarkably efficient. Core strategy: subtract, keep configuration light, and trust model capabilities.
@KobinFlow: Addy Osmani, current core member of Anthropic's Claude Code team and former Google Chrome engineering director, just published a long post that directly calls out a common misconception in AI coding today: you're most likely "overprompting" Claude...
Addy Osmani, a core member of Anthropic's Claude Code team, argues that developers are systematically overprompting: trimming Claude Code's system prompt by 80% caused no drop in benchmark scores. With each new model generation, the winning move is subtraction — give only the goal and a way to verify it, avoid blindly piling on multiple agents, let the model interview you in reverse to clarify requirements, and use a separate agent to review diffs.
