Completely disagree (except the Sonnet bit, yes, it's degrading). "then the cost of executing that plan is a just one turn more of cached tokens, and minimal time." This is just not true at all. There's a huge gap betwee

Just plan extensively and let Sonnet do the exec. And Opus5 aggressive audits. Once it has exactly your coding conventions and access to other code to copy bespoke patterns, a strong idea for what to do, then you can let it do the work. You

This idea that paying more would magically create a pool of trained workers is a a form of fallacy as well. There's obviously some degree of reality to it, but the equilibrium doesn't always work that way, and, shifting it would r

It's totally not illegal to discriminate against people who don't have work status and the mere suggestion is absurd. It's totally unreasonable to suggest that companies should have to hire random people from nation xyz only

No - that's not right - they can't discriminate against people who have work-status, but they absolutely can discriminate against people who don't have status aka arbitrary foreign nationals. And it would be absurd if they co

And Xerox invented the GUI but who cares? 'Mid 20th century' is when the explosion of mass media happened, and these concepts were globalized. It's worth studying for sure, and frankly, it seems the CIA came to a reasonable c

PG is surprisingly ignorant of economics, finance and how normal businesses operate at scale, and has this weird bigotry against it. The 'best thing' they could do is teach literally every students basic commerce, finance and econ

Universities should not give a thought to it in the academic sense - just side programs.

'Loops' are the hackiest thing ever invented I don't think they're good for anything. I think a researched plan is much better, the agent will follow the plan. You can allow for an 'iterative' strategy for solv

All regulations favour some groups more than others. Exempting small business could easily be viewed as hostile / corrupt regulation disfavouring large entities. These kinds of regulations are usually not even welcome by larger compani

Product marketing and contracts will be a 'common use case' we think of, but it will be 0.000001% of tokens consumed. A developer using sub-agents will consume more tokens 1 Day than a marketing manager will consume 1 Month, easil

OP5 will do long running work, you just have to make it write a plan. And - trick - give it a little cli so it can run Codex if you have them both. Let it do codex to do the bulk of the work, get a OP5 sub-agent to audit the work of the cod

Social issues aside, that's a tiny slice of the economics of AI. Just by nature of how often it's used etc. You need workloads for AI be cost effective: software, automation etc.

No, not remotely. They are showing hints of it. The WH is running 'wars by executive order' - neither the population nor Congress support it. I don't think he could every in a million years justify invading anywhere. Only &#x

Reciprocal tariffs are a negotiating move. They are not a rational equilibrium tactic. The op missed: "There are no deals" here, there are 'some adjustments on some things, partially implemented'.

There's a limit in Codex as far as I know, if ur on subscription. Paying per token would cost a grand fortune.

Yes - with arbitrary prefix caching that might work. That's tricky though, not everyone is going to provide that. Did you have to build your own harness for this? Or hack Claude Code or something?

"nd then it gets taken out of the conversation so that it doesn't get sent to the agent the next turn (no context bloat). " Uh - dude - this means you're paying 10x in token costs because there's no caching. If you

Totally disagree - and - ideal scenario happens all the time. Most of the time, in fact. The level of lack of self awareness is really just staggering, as if these companies exist and claim billions in revenues, over, over and over again by

Telling the app how to handle errors doesn't specify the code. The AI will handle a lot of the common, in-between issues. The more framework you can give it, the more it can fill in blanks.

The generated code is fine at the functional level, the directory structure is usually the standard pattern for the given type of project. The error types and codes, it will produce to spec. If you type 'make me that thingy' - yes
