Has anyone found a efficient way to avoid repeating the initial codebase assessment when working with large projects?

There are several projects on GitHub that attempt to tackle context and memory limitations, but I haven’t found one that consistently works well in practice.

My current workaround is to maintain a set of Markdown files, each covering a specific subsystem or area of the application. Depending on the task, I provide only the relevant documents to Claude Code to limit the context scope. It works reasonably well, but it still feels like a manual and fragile solution. I’m interested in more robust strategies for persistent project context or structured codebase understanding.

I moved back to Arch Linux after my 11 months old MBP died and took over a month to get it fixed. Not really looking at going back to macOS. There are no aspect of the Apple OS that I miss and Linux desktop just works nowadays.

It’s funny, the very first thing you see when visiting mailbox.org is their heavy push of the "German quality" mantra, like it's 1999.

After living seven years in Germany, I can confidently say that when it comes to anything digital, “quality” is the last word I would use.

I certainly wouldn’t trust this company with my data.

Some years ago I stumbled across pictures of Pazyryk mummies and I felt a stong emotional connection with the style of the drawings, especially the magical animals.

I decided to get the animals tattooed on my arms and I Will continue with the upper body and the legs.

Saudi Arabia has killed and dismembered a journalist in their own embassy in Istambul, Jamal Khashoggi.

Like in Lybia?

But wasn't Iran already docile to America? Sure, it wasn't a crystal clear ally like Saudi or the Gulf states, but behind the anti-Zionist propaganda and "evil US" blabbering, there were decades of backchannel negotiations, regional pragmatism, and even moments of cooperation — especially when mutual interests aligned, like in post-Taliban Afghanistan or the fight against ISIS.

Happy new 2025 from Berlin, proud to be a long time HN'er. Peace!

It didn't work for me. I spent ~2 years trying to learn German and all I managed to retain are a bunch of nouns, verbs and adjectives. I am still unable to speak properly, let alone read a newspaper article. I suspect that the Duolingo "teaching style" does not work for me. It also depends on the objectives, since I was more interested in some kind of fluency as opposed to being able to read or write in German.
