I watched my PCP read the Google AI summary to me in office when I asked a question about my visit about a year ago... I'd rather just use my Claude sub at this point than pay $180 for 10 minutes of interaction. AI should be disruptive in this space, but it's a walled garden and I feel like they will do everything to avoid disruption.

So a breach occurs and they recommend people rotate keys? But they claim fraud and break everyone's access with existing keys?

Why anyone uses their services, or even the harness product at this point is beyond me. They just shill cheap and crappy models for training and make boneheaded decisions and "mistakes".

The magic is a tropical tasting fruit! I have a tree and it's tough to actually get one of the fruits when they are ripe. This year I got lucky with a few that feel into my fenced garden section and I got them before the critters.

I can't get 3.8 to exit thinking loops. It will just think and think and think on the most trivial topics. I wanted it to port a speed test powershell script to c#. Claude opus 5 completes it under 60 seconds. I let 3.8 churn about 6 different times for 30+ minutes and it never wrote a single line of code to disk. It wrote lots of lines in thinking.

Any tips?

Sure, I understand the subsidization. Their limits are practically unusable and the marketing of "Focused working sessions for regular coding, review, research, and analysis throughout the week." is pretty disingenuous then.

I have been using the coplay MCP for Unity.

Not sure if you meant Fable/Mythos instead of Opus, but I can comfortable work several hours a day using Opus on Max-Ultracode on the CC 10x.

I tried the Fugu models with some real world tales in C# and unity using mcp and open code. I exhausted the $20 plan 5 hour window in one prompt to review my theme system and plan some color changes. So I upgraded to the $100 to see the implementation and result. Well the result was worse than Opus, incredibly slow, and I ended up exhausting the new 5 hour window and have used 35% of the weekly now and it hardly created something opus was able to do at a fraction of the time and cost.

Do what you wish with this info, but it seems to be a complete waste of $$.

Yup I run Max only now. It's closer to the "old" Claude but still nerfed in my opinion.

Yes they 100% associate the card number with your account if it's on file. I have never used Walmart pay and use my physical card only. The strange thing I've noticed is that there is a failure rate of probably 20% where it doesn't associate me.

I'm in a similar boat but with Telegram.

I don't understand the jellyfin hype tbh. Every year I spin it up to test and am always disappointed. If you only consume your media on a web browser, then 100% recommend jellyfin. If you consume on anything else the apps are bare bones and seriously lacking, potentially not even existing. I despise the frequent and ugly Plex UI changes they push out, but the app works on every device and TV brand I've had.

The take away is the app ecosystem needs some serious bolstering. That's the holdup for most people I know who are still sticking with Plex.

Yup, came here to offer the same sentiment on the SMB ERP systems I've worked with.

I feel that large corps have guard rails that will limit this from happening. For SMB's, this is not a new problem. Gritty IT guys have been doing this for decades. I inherit these bootstrapped reporting systems all the time. The issue is when that person leaves, it is no longer maintainable. I've yet to come across a customer who has had any sort of usable documentation. The process then repeats itself when I take over, and presumably when I'm finished. With a SaaS product, you are at least paying for some support and visibility of the processes. I'm not really trying to make a point other than this is not a new, but still intriguing problem, and not sure that LLMs will be some god answer, as the organizations have trouble determining what they even need.

Definitely not to skirt auto play and screen off issues ;) fun to see this is still a problem being solved. A friend and I made the same thing 10 years ago. We opted to force the screen on and play the videos to stay "legit". Explored licensing music for monetization and there was a mid 5 figure minimum to bootstrap so the project died.
