Off topic question and probably a far too ambitious idea... but as a veterinarian, have you thought about working on improvements to the software that vets use? About six months ago I was spending time with a vet friend, and was hearing sto

If your Claude at work API costs are $1000, that will comfortably fit in a $100 Claude Max 5x subscription at home. You could probably get about $400 worth on the $20 subscription. Just FYI if you wanted to be able to have similar Claude us

Well, the front page of their website claims "Frontier AI In Your Hands", so I guess they're not marketing it that way. I personally think there's a hint in that Mistral Medium 3.5 costs 5x the price of Mistral Large 3,

I've tried using Mistral for various tasks, and it is so far behind the American models that I just never bother using it despite still having lots of Mistral API credits leftover. Even their OCR and TTS products are surpassed by gener

An upvote from me, it's a reasonable question. For your "search for bespoke and unique sounds", that sounds like a service Waves runs, called Illugen. It isn't built in to a tracker, but you can use it to generate the sa

You can increase the life of the JSONL files, if you add this to the settings.json for Claude Code, where you would configure your hooks: "cleanupPeriodDays": 99999 That's maybe excessive, but I figure we'll have

For other Australians, I'm not seeing that, and the article is totally SFW. It's all about the technology of signs for small retail & service stores in the 20th Century. I assume the comment above was a joke that initially wen

I haven't noticed that, but I did notice that on a single turn of maybe a few sentences, the cache hit was somehow roughly 500K. Either that's a bug, or there are some truly massive thinking blocks or Claude Code harness system in

This was the first AI project I ended up working on as well, except I approached from building a meta-search first. I only added support for a local index recently (via SQLite FTS 5). But I haven't shared my project, whereas you have a

In my experience, Yandex was feeding in a lot of low quality results into Kagi - lots of pirated software, shady websites, proxy duplicate copycat sites, content that I'll euphemistically call "free speech". Kagi has a domain

If you are building out your own index, might you consider offering it as an API via pre-paid credits (ala Mojeek, Kagi Teclis?) I'm only paying Mojeek about $10 - $20 per year in API for my personal metasearch, so I guess this is a te

Kagi is also a meta search engine. The only Kagi-owned index is Teclis, which is very small and really only indexes RSS feeds of small sites. The Kagi API supplements its Teclis results with additional results from Marginalia. It would be n

I'm on a $100 Claude Max plan, my usage is only about 50% of the plan limits, but in the last 30 days my usage was equivalent to API token spend of $1850. If you save all your Claude Code conversations, the saved files include API cost
