- grewil2Side note: I don’t know what Anthropic changed but now Claude Code consumes the quota incredibly fast. I have the Max5 plan, and it just consumed about 10% of the session quota in 10 minutes on a single prompt. For $100/month, I have higher expectations.
- theptipI’m missing something here. Isn’t the best “doing” to actually use Claude to build stuff? The barrier to entry is so low.Why do you need to memorize slash commands? They are somewhat useful and you can just read them from the autocomplete.
- MeetingsBrowserI use claude code every day, I've written plugins and skills, use MCP servers, subagent workflows, and filled out the "Find your level" quiz as such.According to the quiz, I am a beginner!
- npilkStrongly agree with the sentiment, but I'd say if you're familiar with the terminal you may as well just install it and truly 'learn by doing'!I could see this being great for true beginners, but for them it might be nice to have even some more basics to start (how do I open the terminal, what is a command, etc).
- Yiinfind your level -> answer D to everything -> you're a beginner! And I thought I have high standards...
- jurakovicIs that quiz correct? I have answered mostly C or D and maybe a few of B, but still got "Beginner". How?!
- b212I feel there’s a lot of marketing and pure bullshit around LLMs configuration and conventions.Law of diminishing returns applies here perfectly - you can learn prompting in 2 hours and get 400% performance boost or spend weeks on subagents and skills and Opus and st best it’s another 50% boost but not really - in my case in a good day Sonnet is a genius and on a bad one Opus is an moron. One day the same query consumes 6k tokens, the next 700k.They want to get you hooked and need to show investors they’re super busy but in fact it’s mostly smoke and mirrors. And prompting, once you learn to give proper context, is far from rocket science.
- yoyohello13People will do anything to avoid RTFM.
- tourist_petr98This is awesome, thanks for sharing!
- fercircularbufI love the pedagogical approach here and the ability to easily hone in on your level before diving into content. Your approach would work really well for other subjects as well.

- nickphxWhy wpuld anyone want to "learn" how to use some non-deterministic black box of bullshit that is frequently wrong? When you get different output fkr the same input, how do you learn? How is that beneficial? Why would you waste your time learning something that is frequently changing at the whims of some greedy third party? No thanks.
- AugSunNo. 100% no. Learn the art of programming. Read K&R. In 5 years we will see "new is old" again. Tokens will become prohibitively expensive and, once more, another $steve.ballmer.2.0 will be yelling "developers ... developers". And Claude Code ... will become another "pentesting" / "linting" tool.
- mrtksnAre people again learning a new set of tools? Just tell the AI what you want, if the AI tool doesn't allow that then tell another Ai tool to make you a translation layer that will convert the natural language to the commands etc. What's the point of learning yet another tool?
- htx80nerdI continue to find the non-stop claude spam fascinating. Gemini and ChatGPT have been very good for my needs, Claude not so much. Every week, if not every day, Claude spam is all over this site. But barely a peep about Gemini or ChatGPT coding capabilities.
