gist

HN puts the Christmas banner and alternating colors. I am curious what percentage of HN community celebrates Christmas vs. not at all, another religion, or born Christian but doesn't celebrate etc.

Note: When I was in college (years ago) I asked an admin this and he said point blank 'face it it's a Christian world'

Using for really simple bash programming tasks.

Paid version (lowest levels) of both. Claude Sonnet 4; ChatGpt 4o; Code is MacOS.

Going around circles for things as simple as 'please mark the end of the script with #finish of script' and often leaving off parts of the script (Claude).

Failing to easily find missing braces tasks that are easy for a human.

Requesting that I run the sed command to count up the braces 'oh I see we need an extra "{" (but then doesn't even fix). Annoying.

Often requested to 'start a new chat limit reached'.

Can't properly handle coloring of text in the terminal figures out then forgets the fix later with other changes.

What are others experiencing?
