The Chevy Silverado EV is a solid first draft of an EV pickup truck. Here's what could make it better.

During negotiations on Wednesday, employees voiced frustrations with what they consider an unwillingness among executives to engage meaningfully with the prospect of unionization.

Hi, I am supposed to prepare for SLM and its software part for an on campus internship, i've worked with local models like ollama generally,in my projects and also with open claw so can anyone guide me the last 2-3 days tips on what should i go through for this internship prep?? submitted by /u/Idea_less_ [link] [留言]

The current Claude models give you an effort knob with five settings: low , medium , high , xhigh , max . The docs tell you what each is for. I wanted numbers, so I ran the same three real tasks across all five levels and measured tokens, latency, and quality. The results changed how I set effort, and one of them surprised me. Here is the data and what I do with it now. What effort controls Effort is not just "how much the model thinks." It controls overall token spend: how much it thinks and how it acts. Lower effort means fewer, more consolidated tool calls, less preamble, terser output. Higher effort means more exploration before answering. The default is high if you omit it. const response = await client . messages . create ({ model : " claude-opus-4-8 " , max_tokens : 16000 , thinking : { type : " adaptive " }, output_config : { effort : " medium " }, // the knob messages , }); The three tasks I picked tasks that span the range of what I actually do: Classification : label a contract finding as low/medium/high/critical. Short, scoped. Code generation : write a TypeScript function with edge-case handling. Medium difficulty. Multi-step audit : analyze a 200-line contract for vulnerabilities across functions. Hard, agentic. I ran each at all five effort levels, three times, and averaged. I scored quality against a known-correct answer for tasks 1 and 3, and by manual review for task 2. The results Task 1, classification. Quality was flat across every effort level. The right label is the right label, and the model nailed it at low just as well as at max . But token usage climbed steeply: max used roughly 8x the tokens of low for an identical answer. Latency tracked tokens. The lesson: for genuinely simple, scoped tasks, high effort is pure waste. I set classification to low . Task 2, code generation. Quality improved from low to high , then plateaued. At low the model sometimes skipped an edge case. At high it caught them. xhigh and max produced essentially the sam

Book: The Complete Guide to Go Programming Also by me: Hexagonal Architecture in Go — the companion book in the Thinking in Go series My project: Hermes IDE | GitHub — an IDE for developers who ship with Claude Code and other AI coding tools Me: xgabriel.com | GitHub You open a pull request in a Go repo you just joined. Ten minutes later there are six comments on it. None of them are about your logic. They point at a capitalized error string, a receiver named this , a context stored on a struct. Each comment links the same page: the Go Code Review Comments wiki. That page is the closest thing Go has to an official style council. It grew out of the comments Go's own maintainers left on CLs for years, and most Go teams treat it as the default rulebook. The problem is that the wiki tells you what but rarely why , so the rules read like arbitrary taste. They aren't. Each one exists because the alternative bit somebody. Here are ten that reviewers cite the most, with the reason behind each. Everything below is idiomatic on Go 1.23+. 1. Error strings are lowercase and unpunctuated The rule: an error string should not be capitalized and should not end with punctuation. // wrong return fmt . Errorf ( "Failed to open config." ) // right return fmt . Errorf ( "failed to open config" ) The reason is wrapping. Go errors get concatenated. Your string is almost never the whole sentence a user reads; it's a fragment in a chain built with %w : return fmt . Errorf ( "load settings: %w" , err ) // -> "load settings: open config: permission denied" Capitalize your fragment and you get load settings: Open config: permission denied in the middle of a line. End it with a period and you get a period in the middle of a longer message. Lowercase, no trailing punctuation, and every fragment composes cleanly no matter where it lands in the chain. The exception is a string that begins with an exported name or acronym, which keeps its own case ( HTTP , TLS ). 2. Receiver types are consistent ac
