Btw I don't even use the free version anymore. I just use z.ai and Qwen now. Chat, CLI and API(via openrouter).

For sure, something happened. Grok 3 was awesome to work with. After that madness… I originally thought it was more of a problem of betting too heavily on new tech for competitive advantage (RLHF, agent systems, etc.) and accepting worse re

It's working pretty badly for me. I ask it to code stuff, and nothing works. Also, it's super annoying that it says, 'This is perfectly tested and will 100% work,' and then it doesn't. Huge waste of time. Make Grok

I never liked inheritance. It seems like something that works well in a world where you assume things don’t evolve rapidly. It also feels like it adds mental debt—every new thing needs to comply with old things to stay compatible. Every upd

To me, free speech in the US is sacred because there is a set of rules that shields citizens from being imprisoned simply for expressing their thoughts—otherwise, a huge swath of Bluesky users would already be behind bars... Can you speak f

I wonder how many people actually believe this is for the kids and not for population control. The bad people can use encrypted services just like they use guns, even if they are illegal. But then there's a spike in arrests for posting

I complained to them about the missing CLI. That was probably the last straw that made me decide to stop paying for it. They could deliver a CLI with calls included in SuperGrok, and a lot of people would stop using Gemini CLI and Qwen Code

I started with ChatGPT, then moved on to Claude, and then discovered Grok. But now I've stopped paying for any of them. Claude edged out ChatGPT in quality, while Grok stood out with its generous usage limits. That all changed, though,

I think there are situations where crypto is better for legal purposes—for example, sending money via SWIFT can cost like $50, whereas using an efficient stablecoin is easier and cheaper. Another benefit is allowing agents to buy stuff in a

I envision AI saturating every corner of life—yet its market is ultimately bounded by how much users will actually pay, weighed against the tangible value delivered. The rift arises from overoptimistic guesses about user spending, a chasm t

People typically pay when they desire something they can't obtain without your involvement, right? The core issue with these companies may be that they're disconnected from users' actual needs, driven only by investors'

The problem with these types of technologies is that you will be at the mercy of whoever uses them. It's like chat control, censorship, gun laws, etc. You can't control how they will be leveraged. I lived in California for some ti

The problem is that they manage customers through automation. If the system flags you, you’re out. By using their products, you accept the risk of being cut off.

It's probably a mix of what you're working on and how you're using the tool. If you can't get it done for free or cheaply, it makes sense to pay. I first design the architecture in my mind, then use Grok 4 fast (free) fo

I started with Claude Code, realized it was too much money for every message, then switched to Gemini CLI, then Qwen. Probably Claude Code is better, but I don't need it since I can solve my problems without it.

CLI terminals are incredibly powerful. They are also free if you use Gemini CLI or Qwen Code. Plus, you can access any OpenAI-compatible API(2k TPS via Cerebras at 2$/M or local models). And you can use them in IDEs like Zed with ACP m

I only use bare metal—super cheap and very easy to switch. No worries about crazy bills or handling the crazy complexity of their systems. So far, so good. When/if problems start, I'll try them

I use Zed + Qwen CLI + free Grok. I stopped paying for LLMs about two months ago and can get everything I need for free. It would be great to have cheap Cerebras hardware with open-source models like Qwen Coder 480B and (soon?) Grok 3; that

Zed is awesome. It does everything I need. I easily find everything I'm looking for. It's fast, and I can use forked CLI terminals from the IDE via ACP mode. This means Cerebras and Qwen code 480b for super fast and cheap incredib

I think it's about helping them map out the options. So, listening to what they want and truthfully sharing your opinion on how the different options will solve their problem. If the best option for them is what you sell, it's a w

Is it a good idea to generate more code faster to solve problems? Can I solve problems without generating code? If code is a liability and the best part is no part, what about leveraging Markdown files only? The last programs I created were
