I tried gemini 2.5 just once for coding and it immediately spit out hilariously invalid python, not even clearing the lowest of bars.

What (language/topic) are you coding in that gemini (or even chatgpt) is better than claude? Very surprised to hear this.

For Golang and Haskell I found o1 Pro and Gemini 2.5 are much better at generating code that works first try than Claude. Gemini 2.5 in particular can generate thousands and thousands of lines of code that correctly use types and functions that were generated earlier in the context, with minimal errors.

I've been using Gemini pro 2.5 over Claude 3.5 in cursor all week - some people have Gemini do a prd and tasks and Claude do the actual coding. I switch between them but have been pretty impressed with Gemini.

Gemini sometimes fucks up diffs or doesn't actually apply the edits - Claude is rock solid at that. They're both very good though - but 3.7 really likes refactoring unneeded shit and removing code sometimes.
