You know when Claude Code for Terminal starts scroll-looping and doom-scrolling through the entire conversation in an uninterruptible fashion? Just try reading as much as of it as you can. It strengthens your ability to read code in an instant and keeps you alert. And if people watch you pretend to understand your screen, it makes you look like a mentat.

It’s actually a feature, not a bug.


I wouldn’t recommend that (after having tried it for a while). It is very easy to get the impression that the changes are sound, because on their own they look good. But often when looking at the final result in a git diff tool, the holes and workarounds become way more noticeable.
You've missed a lot sarcasm in that statement.

claude-code rendering pipeline often goes awry, and start scrolling back and forward very fast, causing insane flickering. They have some explanation in https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/769#issueco... describing that they've made that tradeoff in the name of native terminal experience (instead of learning per-program shortcuts/etc).

Funnily enough, before reading their reasoning, I thought that the whole rendering pipeline was badly vibe-coded.
