    @qdot making a HUMAN.md gotta be good practice when you use a human coding agent from https://rentahuman.ai/

      I love that CLAUDE.md follows the usual all caps of README/CHANGELOG.

      It feels like you’re Claude’s mom yelling at it from the porch to stop playing in the street

      If only you could yell it’s full name

      Like what even is Claude Anthropic’s middle name

              @diazona My remark shouldn't be taken as a complaint - it's a very fediverse experience, and in this instance, may have saved me from putting my foot in my mouth.

                @IrrationalMethod @qdot Oh of course, I didn't take it as a complaint at all. (In fact it didn't occur to me that it *could* be taken as a complaint until you pointed it out.) I thought it was funny 😂 (but true)

                  I imagine the conversation with HR would have gone something like "so where do we start? your comments about Charles, or..."

                    @qdot Try adding SHARED-CODING-STANDARDS.md, putting your ideas for less annoying practices in there and submit a PR for the the team to review.

                    Coding to avoid every team member's individual annoyances is not the way.

                          @qdot It really annoys me that it isn't a dotfile (or in some dotdirectory). To me all non-dotfiles should be actively contributing to the build of a project and any editor/development tools that don't affect the build should be dotfiles...

                            @qdot I understand you being annoyed when your name is Claude. I also understand you being annoyed by coworkers using vibe coding and commiting that file as if it belongs to the repository. Why are your coworkers using "git commit -a"? You should talk to them. I doubt adding their names as markdown files to the repository is a good measure to teach people, even when you feel offended by their behaviour.
