Ive heard this from three people: that you get dramatically better results from claude code outside peak hours. Wat.
claude code is on absolute steroids rn. i might buy the idea they serve a quantized model during peak hours bc this is an insane difference. feels like claude 5 opus compared to normal.

Anyone have a tool where I can just mention something like @claudecode in slack, it'll read my instructions in message/thread, run claude code on our codebase following the instructions and open a github PR?.

I forgot you also have to put a test_helper.exs in lib to make this work 👍.
I'm unconventional in a lot of ways, one of them being that I put @elixirlang tests right next to what they test. It's pretty easy, you just add `lib` to `test_paths` in `mix.exs`. #myelixirstatus

Relatedly, I was joking with another engineer at @JumpAdvisorAI that him and I are in a constant battle between code architecture and database optimization. This is so true, there is a constant tension between a data model that is easy to change and one a database can query.

If you're a global @elixirlang dev open to a new gig and are free this weekend, @JumpAdvisorAI is doing a paid challenge where if you can build an Elixir app that meets all requirements in 48 hours, we'll pay $3000 and likely hire you. DM me your LinkedIn if interested!.
