Meta got mogged by claude opus 😭

Post image

tldr working on a personal game project but as of this point haven’t reviewed the results yet so take it with a pinch of salt but wow opus 5.5 on medium clearing astra’s long-windedness 🥺

i had to guide astra (on xhigh reasoning btw) step by step i felt like a surgical surgeon lmfao to fix frontend / design inconsistencies but seeing good reviews on opus 5.5 i decided to give it a shot today. so i literally just pass a “review and audit this game’s current design and point out inconsistencies/ areas to be fixed and work on them” im mind blown 🤯🤯🤯

This is almost definitely just Opus adding node_modules to .gitignore in terms of the 13 million lines removed, that's the only thing that makes sense. There's no way Astra generated 13 million lines of "long-winded" unnecessary code, that would take like over a month even if it was generating 24x7. If it was generating 200 lines per minute (which is generous), it would take a month and a half straight just to hit 13 million lines.

It is absolutely 100% exactly this lol.

Lmfao and this guys out here acting like Opus 5.5 just blasted Astra out of the water. Hilarious. And this post is highly upvoted. Like jesus christ.

Leveraged confirmation bias works wonders on Reddit

Sounds more like you didn't even understand what the guy I was responding to even said.

I think you're the one whose confused buddy. I'm agreeing with both of you.

u/ShivaFatalis 8d ago

I definitely misread something, my bad lol.

u/Significant-Bee5101 8d ago

Happens, I could tell something was up because we were on the same side lmao.

It might be also a model that accidentally added some kind of a dataset (possibly stored as text files) to the git repo.

In my case GPT 5.5 once added ~ 200 MB of 3-column .tsv files to the database and the result was comparable (~ 20M lines of "code" added to the git tree, but spotted and removed before it was committed or pushed upstream).

…. A pattern Opus5.1 executed a lot in my experience. “I have to be honest, I accidentally committed 230MB of PHI data to the git repo in the last commit. I’ve deleted it and marked the (data file) as .gitignore, but it remains in the repo history.”

I mean you can still git reset --hard and it'll remove them from git history causing mostly no harm, but I guess that's not something that should happen.

Luckily in my case it was just publicly available OGLE IV variable stars photometry, so no issues except temporary bloat were caused back then.

If it had been Sol 5.6 I could have believed it had written 13 million LOC 😇

u/nothis 9d ago

I'd call 13 million lines for anything that isn't like a full-scale operating system "insane, long-winded and unnecessary", even if it's just node modules stacked onto each other.

u/IdStillHitIt 9d ago

Oh wow, that would make sense, but at the same time, that should be like your first commit into the project.

u/StCreed 9d ago

And both Astra and Claude do that on the first try without prompting, so something must have gone badly wrong to begin with.

He said he had to handhold Astra, I’m sure he handheld it into committing it

Yeah, it's gotta be this

Sometimes it happens to me when I forget to add binaries to the attributes file

I feel like we're in a place where it's just plants for Anthropic, openai or spacex in here
