Thinking summaries might not be useful for revealing the model's actual intentions, but I find that they can be helpful in signalling to me when I have left certain things underspecified in the prompt, so that I can stop and clarify.

Note that for Claude Code, it looks like they added a new undocumented command line argument `--thinking-display summarized` to control this parameter, and that's the only way to get thinking summaries back there.

VS Code users can write a wrapper script which contains `exec "$@" --thinking-display summarized` and set that as their claudeCode.claudeProcessWrapper in VS Code settings in order to get thinking summaries back.


Here is additional discussion and hacks around trying to retain Thinking output in Claude Code (prior to this release):

> Supporting only Server grade hardware and ignoring laptop/consumer grade GPU/APU for ROCm was a terrible strategical mistake. A lot of developers experiments first and foremost on their personal laptop first and scale on expensive, professional grade hardware later.

NVIDIA is making the same mistake today by deprioritizing the release of consumer-grade GPUs with high VRAM in favour of focusing on server markets.

They already have a huge moat, so it's not as crippling for them to do so, but I think it presents an interesting opportunity for AMD to pick up the slack.


I don't think it's a single axis even in the original poster's conception, since you could be both incorrect and also not pragmatic.

But if a fix needs to be described as pragmatic relative to the alternatives, that's probably because it couldn't be described as correct. Otherwise you wouldn't be talking about how pragmatic it is.


Damn, I was working on exactly the same idea not too long ago. It never really went anywhere because I couldn't find a speech rate detection algorithm that worked well enough to make it practically useful. I hope some more mathematically inclined people take a look at this idea and find a way to make it work.


While I agree with the sentiment here, you might be interested to see that there are a couple hack approaches to override Claude Code feature flags:

I mean, yeah, it's entirely possible that the operator is a teenager, isn't it?


Likely, I'd think.


This is essentially Jevons' paradox


If their whole business is based around being an established standard and making users happy is not a relevant goal, then why do anything at all? They already are an established standard, so why would they bother taking any further actions whatsoever, making any changes or rolling out any new products? Clearly they are trying to achieve something, right? So what is it?


It is about making specific high value users happy. If the rest of us are unhappy - we don't matter. They know for most people ubuntu or whatever isn't a realistic option and so they can take whatever money they can get from those people. Sure a few people like me will run *BSD or linux, but we are a footnote not worth their time.

The only danger is every once in a while one of those little footnotes becomes large enough to be a problem and you lose the market of those who do matter as well. While there are many obvious examples of where that happened, there are also a lot of cases where it didn't.


It used to be empowering everyone to achieve more.


Wow, these preassembled ESP32 plus touchscreen boards are extremely cheap, and there are tons of them in all kinds of different form factors on Amazon. I didn't realize this kind of thing was so plentiful, this seems like a great way to bootstrap many kinds of electronics/IoT projects


Yeah ESP32 is an awesome rabbit hole. An esp32-c6, cheap yellow display, and a 3d printer and you can build some really interesting things.


Any commercial products using ESP?


Just look for ESP32 CYD - CYD stands for cheap yellow display. There are a lot of variants.

Here’s a list of just a few. They’re insanely popular not only because they’re just good to use, but also because they’re one of the cheaper FCC approved modules you can buy, which takes a lot of the pain out of bringing a product to market.


A lot of Shelly devices use ESP chips: https://www.shelly.com/ - And they are hackable!


You can find the fcc notices in manuals if you search on espressif’s module grantee code which is 2AC7Z. Espressif is extremely widely used.


Loads, you can usually tell if something is limited to 2.4Ghz only.

Cabled up an EVSE the other day and the brains of that was a ESP32 chip.


Yes, many. As a random example, see: https://www.servethehome.com/ubiquiti-flex-mini-2-5g-review-...

The last image on the page shows various chips in the switch, the top left is an ESP32.


Interesting, seems like they're just using it as a MCU? Specs don't mention anything wireless, and I don't see an antenna.


If you pick a smart device that has WiFi connectivity, then there's about a 50% chance that it has an ESP inside.


My "smart" resistive water heater uses an ESP for Wifi connectivity, so it can heat the water when the electricity prices are low for example.


(my older) LIFX bulbs have an Espressif MAC address, and I think LIFX has stated they're ESP32-based in the past


I think there are plenty using espressif chips. One of my robot vacuums (possibly the Neato?) certainly appeared to be.


AFAIK my humidifier uses an ESP32 chip.
