Your comment quite badly violates the HN guidelines. You should review them: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

> "Let's face it" "terrible writer" "other nonsense" "do Anthropic people actually talk like that" "Dario's engrams"

Be kind. Don't be snarky. Edit out swipes.

> I genuinely wonder if the people inside Anthropic actually communicate with each other like that. Has it been imprinted with Dario's engrams?

Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer.

Don't be curmudgeonly [...] don't be rigidly or generically negative.

Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work.

And as to the substance your comment has:

> Claude (in particular) is a terrible writer.

Frontier models (Claude in particular) are better writers than 90% of the population, even at default style. They're not great, but they're better than that of everyone I know who aren't ultra-educated white-collar workers.

Either your assertion that frontier models are "terrible" writers is false, or you're claiming that 90% of people are "terrible" at writing, which is rather condescending and elitist.

Your reply is essentially spam. Please stop.

Your comment technically does as well. Downvote the comment and move on. Leave the policing up to dang and the other mods.

It is evident (in my opinion) as to what the comment was talking about. I personally switched away from all Claude models recently for the same reason.
