Would love to see a head-to-head coding benchmark against Claude 3.5! I couldn’t care less about math problem sets, which can be overfitted to (e.g. solve Olympiad math but fail to tell if 9.9 > 9.11). Coding is the most important text modality, by far.

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, energetic
Written for: People building with AI
