Using DeepSeek in Claude Code on a fresh project. Pretty interesting. It's EXTREMELY autistic starting out. I wonder if CC's system prompt is cucking it somehow.

To start, I told it to make a landing page using plain JS/HTML about the benefits of agentic programming using DeepSeek with Claude Code, with a WebGL hero and some neat effects. I then asked what features we should implement next, and had it make a TODO.md. Then, I'm basically just saying "yes" on stuff it proposes, there was one thing I wanted to nix but I let it do it anyway.

About this far in and it actually starts to feel and respond like R1. It's actually kind of cool. It's really R1 as your coding buddy. I know the chatbot guys might be upset, hopefully temporarily, but I think the "core" deepseek is still around.

Also picrel lol if this is really anthropic's api cost if I was using sonnet or opus. (my DS api usage for comparison). Something has to be wrong with the cost calculations.
