I guess that's the beauty of having access to many models, because they suit everyone differently.

I disagree with this article and find Opus 5 an absolute joy to work with. I just completed an 18,000 line branch with Opus 5 and ran into no issues. It generated clean code in the exact style of our code base, and tested every change.

Fable on the other hand is snarky and outputs walls of text as to why it shouldn't do what I'm asking it.

Opus 4.8 I accidentally went back to in an old chat, and I was frustrated in all the mistakes it made.

So yeah, use the model that works for you.

> multiple former Apple employees now working at OpenAI reached out to discuss returning Apple-issued work devices they kept when they left Apple

Really Apple.. No device inventory and off boarding process?

Curious, does Anthropic force companies of a certain size like yours to their Enterprise plans? Or was it by choice for the enterprise features?

Because with a Premium Team seat I run 2-3 vscodes with Opus 4.8 Max all day and never seem to hit my limits.

I despise our Outback's climate settings. It seems every time I start the car it picks a random temperature to set each side to. It'll be 30 deg outside and you look down wondering why its getting hotter and the car is set to 30 deg inside.

> there's no reasonable threat model where something would be given unrestricted access to user env, but also be untrusted

What like a nefarious vscode extension, or npm or python library like we have seen many many times over the past 6 months.

I think you have some holes in your threat model..

PS. A simple VPN back to your static IP enables roaming.

How are they optional?

You obviously haven't worked anywhere security sensitive.

I'm not talking about whether what Grok did is bad or good, I'm talking about protecting your private key and the servers you connect to.

An unencrypted private key is no different to an unencrypted password manager, and thats a fact. Dont store secrets in plain text.

SSH keys can be limited by IP in authorized hosts.

The SSH port itself can be limited by IP in firewalls.

Finally, the SSH private key can be encrypted with a password.

Defense in depth is needed. Storing a ssh private key in plain text with no IP restriction is no different to having a password manager store your passwords in plain text on your HD.

Amazing and impressive use of CSS. But at the same time, makes me appreciate what feat Carmack achieved 30 years ago on early Pentiums.

I experienced this exact thing discussing the most budget friendly inference for a SaaS company. It started ranting about 3090's, and then started point scoring, always giving itself the higher score, and being snarky if I ever won a point back. Often only giving me 0.5 points instead.

I had never experienced this behaviour with Sonnet or Opus. It turned me off Fable for good. Possibly its the 'hacker' 'do anything to win' nature that makes it so good at hacking, but terrible just to talk to.

Good workout and satisfying, I totally agree. I actually really enjoy it.

But the long term effects on your joints, even if you think you have perfect technique, its better to just get a wood splitter. We can do a whole winters wood in less than a day now, with minimal effort.
