Social Media Summary

Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code, dominated AI discussions with a comprehensive 7.2M-view thread detailing his personal workflows—running 5+ parallel Claude instances, using shared CLAUDE.md files across teams, and emphasizing verification as the key to 2-3x quality improvement.

  • Nathan Lambert released major updates to his RLHF book (now 200 pages) and shared a curated timeline of 26 reasoning model technical reports from DeepSeek to others
  • Greg Brockman sparked debate claiming Rust is ideal for AI agents due to compiler guarantees; received 1.4M views
  • Erik Brynjolfsson (MIT) predicted the rise of 'Chief Question Officers' who manage AI agent fleets
  • Andriy Burkov made bold claims that Anthropic has unmatched AI know-how and Claude Code has made junior developers obsolete for greenfield projects

I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. Lots of people have asked how I use Claude Code, so I wanted to show off my setup a bit. My setup might be surprisingly vanilla! Claude Code works great out of the box, so I personally don't customize it much. There is no one correct way to use Claude Code: we intentionally build it in a way that you can use it, customize it, and hack it however you like. Each person on the Claude Code team uses it very differently. So, here goes.

Major RLHF Book update: expanded from 150 to 200 pages with new RL algorithms (GSPO, CISPO), reasoning model coverage, rubrics for RLVR, and fixes to original RLHF diagram from 2022

RLHF Book status update: lot's of great changes. Over the past month I've been doing a top to bottom update to the RLHF book. All of these changes are reflected on the website rlhfbook dot com, and will soon be translated to the Manning early access version (MEAP), and then more improvements for the physical copy. Overall, this took the PDF from ~150 to ~200 pages, the book is much more well rounded now. Some of the larger changes:
  • Updates to the RL chapter to add more algorithms like GSPO

Key tip: Give Claude a way to verify its work for 2-3x quality improvement. Claude tests every change to claude.ai using Chrome extension - opens browser, tests UI, iterates until code works and UX is good.

13/ A final tip: probably the most important thing to get great results out of Claude Code -- give Claude a way to verify its work. If Claude has that feedback loop, it will 2-3x the quality of the final result. Claude tests every single change I land to t.co/pEWPQoSq5t using the Claude Chrome extension. It opens a browser, tests the UI, and iterates until the code works and the UX feels good. Verification looks different for each domain. It might be as simple as running a bash command

Boris also runs 5-10 Claudes on claude.ai in parallel with local instances, using teleport feature to move sessions between CLI/web/phone. Starts sessions from iOS app throughout the day.

2/ I also run 5-10 Claudes on t.co/pEWPQoSq5t, in parallel with my local Claudes. As I code in my terminal, I will often hand off local sessions to web (using &), or manually kick off sessions in Chrome, and sometimes I will --teleport back and forth. I also start a few sessions from my phone (from the Claude iOS app) every morning and throughout the day, and check in on them later.

Boris recommends Opus 4.5 with thinking for everything, calling it the best coding model. Despite being larger/slower than Sonnet, reduced steering needs and better tool use make it faster overall.

3/ I use Opus 4.5 with thinking for everything. It's the best coding model I've ever used, and even though it's bigger & slower than Sonnet, since you have to steer it less and it's better at tool use, it is almost always faster than using a smaller model in the end.

4/ Our team shares a single t.co/pp5TJkWmFE for the Claude Code repo. We check it into git, and the whole team contributes multiple times a week. Anytime we see Claude do something incorrectly we add it to the t.co/pp5TJkWmFE, so Claude knows not to do it next time. Other teams maintain their own t.co/pp5TJkWmFE's. It is each team's job to keep theirs up to date.

The only AI company that has any significant know-how today is Anthropic. No one is even close to what Claude Code can do with code. This is the only use case that has a measurable impact on society: The concept of a junior or mid-level developer is gone, and the projects that these two categories of developers were capable of building in months are now built in hours or, in some cases, days. All other AI use cases are either fun but useless, or not ready for prime time, or niche, or it's impo
