There‘s a button looking like a shield, next to the voice dictation button.

Opus is too superficial for coding (great at bash though, on the flipside), I‘d recommend giving Codex a try.

Yeah let’s talk again in 6 months when the slop catches up with you.

That's completely wrong. Electricity (standard): 33.34 p/kWh Heating oil (gas oil): 10.54 p/kWh Kerosene: 6.20 p/kWh Mains gas: 7.68 p/kWh https://www.nottenergy.com/advice-and-tools/project-ene

> Those who installed oil heaters many decades ago regretted it quickly. That really depends on the oil heater, no? You can't compare a heater from the 70s with a modern one. That's like saying I don't drive modern cars be

I don't buy your numbers. I'm in Western Europe myself, and have run those numbers multiple times. Kilowatt for kilowatt (COP adjusted) gas is always cheaper than a heat pump.

by manmal 9mo ago
Yes, and many places have high electricity costs. And btw, those are hard to foresee, so if you make a long term investment into a heat pump that is supposed to last 20-25 years, you have no idea how electricity prices will affect you. That

Climates that need a hot tank of water to buffer for heat pumps, will not have meaningful solar panel output during winter. Or do you mean, just load the battery when electricity is cheap? A tank of water is 1k max, probably 10% of a sodium

Certainly not gas or oil, which are still cheaper to heat with than heat pumps.
281.
by manmal 9mo ago
Those are great for buffering only a few hours though. That would help avoid the expensive electricity price peaks.

Such black and white thinking. Even the little tools fall apart at first sight of an edge case if they are fully vibed. Neither Opus nor codex are good at architecture, and it’s not clear they ever will be.

I wonder what the role of inflammation in all this is. It must be a major disrupter (or the effect?) of such electrical comms, with all these cytokines and fluid influx changing things around.

I’ve even built my own todo tool in zig, which is backed by SQLite and allows arbitrary levels of todo hierarchy. Those clankers just start ignoring tasks or checking them off with a wontfix comment the first time they hit adversity. Codex

My experience with both Opus and GPT-codex is that they both just forget to implement big chunks of specs, unless you give them the means to self-validate their spec conformance. I’m finding myself sometimes spending more time coming up wit

I think I agree with what you’re saying? But that’s not the waterfall approach GP pitched.

Are there other good ones with such a nice API?

by manmal 9mo ago
My experience is that such one-shotted projects never survive the collision with reality. Even with extremely detailed specs, the end result will not be what people had in mind, because human minds cannot fully anticipate the complexity of

Yes only the plan OpenCode themselves sells is „legal“ Opus.

Weekend - certainly not, the scope is massive. All those CLIs - gmail, whisper, elevenlabs, whatsapp/telegram/discord/etc, obsidian, generic skills marketplace etc, it's just so many separate APIs to build against. But P

Problem of definition, you're conflating good with cautious, I would not.

Sure, I'm not using it with my company/enterprise account for that reason. But for my private sub, it's worth the tradeoff/risk. Ethically I see no issue at all, because those LLMs are trained on who knows what. But you

Why don’t you try it, it’s 2 minutes to setup (or tell Claude to do it), and it uses your CC Max sub if you want. Some advantages: - Faster because it does no extra Haiku inference for every prompt (Anthropic does this for safety it seems)

- Peter has spent the last year building up a large assortment of CLIs to integrate with. He‘s also a VERY good iOS and macOS engineer so he single handedly gave clawd capabilities like controlling macOS and writing iMessages. - Leaning hea

Better, yes, but cheaper - only when looking at API costs I guess? Who in their right mind uses the API instead of the subsidized plans? There, Opus is way cheaper in terms of subsidized tokens.

Is an MCP really required for this?

Come on, our world is running on plastics and oil as fuel for ships and aviation. EV savings will be eaten up within years by those.
