   More like cloud AI - Its good

   So I’ve been playing around with Claude for a bit, and here’s the vibe:

   Honestly, it feels way more chill than a lot of other AI tools. It’s super polite, doesn’t jump into assumptions too fast, and gives responses that are easy to read like talking to a thoughtful friend rather than someone in a hurry. It’s surprisingly good at breaking down complex stuff into simple terms without sounding condescending, which I really appreciate.

   In terms of creativity, Claude does pretty well — whether I ask for a poem, a short story, or help brainstorming ideas, it doesn’t just give cookie-cutter replies. There’s a bit of personality there, like it tries to make things interesting rather than just factual.

   On the downside? Sometimes it plays it a bit too safe. If you push for a bold opinion or a more adventurous answer, it’ll often stay in the middle-of-the-road lane. And for niche topics, it’s not always as sharp as some other models unless you give super clear instructions.

   Also, it’s fast no long pauses or overcomplicated explanations which makes it nice for quick back-and-forth.

   👍 Pros:    Cheap

   👎 Cons:    Reports

   Claude Sonnet 3.5 is amazing for coding! I used to use the chat interface and copy-paste, but now I use aider.chat. Aider works in a git repo and forces Claude to only make the changes you requested. Changes are easy to revert.

   A downside: Code is not always what I want. I try to make it do work in small chunks and this helps. Excels at writing boilerplate-y code that tends to be a little different on different websites.

   Two helpful styles of prompts:

   1. "Make this better", "Make it look better", etc. - Will optimize code, make it DRY, improve HTML/CSS styling in templates, and more.
   2. "What are my options?" - Helpful if you're not an expert in something or need to brainstorm.

   Using it for Python/Django/HTMX/AlpineJS. Django templates mixed with JS are no problem.

   🏁 Competitors: ChatGPT

   👍 Pros:    Optimizes and improves code, layouts, and more|Reduces boilerplate

   👎 Cons:    Code is not always great|Can be hard to keep track of things when you're moving so fast

  My prefered way of using a new mode is through Claude, but I believe Gemma4 has a different tool calling structure so it is not compatible yet, but you can use it with LMStudio, or skil all that because you can now. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• It's Time to Learn about Google TPUs in 2026

  – In 2024, Apple released a technical paper revealing that "Apple Intelligence" was trained on TPUs, bypassing NVIDIA entirely – Top AI models like Claude (Anthropic), Midjourney, and Character.ai rely heavily on Google because they offer better performance-per-dollar for massive Transformer models. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

  Drop an image into Claude or ChatGPT asking it to "recreate this." The result? The LLM guesses styles. Is that padding 16px or 24px? Is that blue #3b82f6 or #2563eb? Is the shadow 0 2px 8px or 0 4px 12px? Pure hallucination. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

  Best to start with what you're good at doing, check websites like exploding topics and answer the public to see if there is hype/market around your skillset. Get started by helping people in that niche for free, use AI tools to supercharge your work and find clients. Rinse and repeat until you start making money. Source: almost 3 years ago
