I am often wrong

    Haven't seen any Claude Code specific examples of Boris admitting he's wrong and then actually fixing things in the way the community wants.

    There are mind blowing bugs in CC that go unaddressed for months.

    Something like 15-20% of all Fable messages in CC are invisible to users. You've most likely noticed this when Claude references something it said but it never said it?

    It happens frequently when Fable outputs a message above a certain number of tokens just before doing a tool call.

    This has been going on for months. If "users can't see messages the agent sends" isn't a critical issue that gets addressed within 24 hours, I don't really care if you admit you're often wrong, we know.

        > Just shut up dude. Show me your numbers or shut up.

        While Claude Code is a bunch of bugs held together by below-cost prices, and many have strong opinions on the seniority level of the lead dev(s), I think this is unnecessarily rude.

        You're not talking to a bot here, you're talking to a person. Would you communicate your argument in this way to someone standing in front of you?

        Whatever happened to attacking the idea, not the person?
