The first week I encountered this "substrate" I asked it to justify the usage and IIRC it claimed the word is used in some infra/systems lexicons... I wonder...

Does anyone have a theory for what causes Claude to speak this way? A few months ago OpenAI came out with a bit on "gremlins". It's strange IMO that Anthropic hasn't addressed how irritating, dare I say oppressive, Claud

Woah thanks for sharing will have to check this out.

Gosh, this is all pretty nauseating.

We should be insulted by this tbh, I'm shifting some of my plans to open AI while this continues, it's just pretty absurd to be jerked around like this. Not to mention the "safeguards" :/. Thank goodness for competi

Why are you insulting the people you're seemingly trying to convince of something? What's going on there? What are you doing here?

I didn't wish for anything, I stated my calculus, and I'm pretty comfortable with it. Not sure what's unfair about my comment, let alone completely.

most people can't really get a worthwhile quality of life like that. maybe life is worthwhile to you walking around in an N95 respirator, but not to me, at least not... indefinitely. I'd rather be dead TBH. IMO it makes sense to w

Yes I was being hyperbolic.

> None of us are experts in Rust, and we're all solid at Python. you don't need to be, you can learn Rust or whatever way-better-than Python language as you use it with an LLM! it's an amazing process.

by timcobb 3mo ago
Right, they run tests too. A compiler is like a quick test before tests. How are you going to cut out that check and let the LLM "write it faster" is beyond me. The compiler catches errors across codebases that today's LLM ca

They are not covered in AP chemistry this is just your typical "when I studied differential geometry in high school" HN comment

Pi and sigma bonds fall out of thinking of it from a physical/symmetrical/statistical perspective. There's not too much hand waving in the modeling of atomic and molecular orbitals.

Anyone know what the deal is with the resets?

Totally. My experience as well. After some time with codex you're like come on Claude can you just stfu! Haha. I now almost always instruct Claude with specific length requirements when I ask questions. Otherwise, it just blathers and

If you can afford it and you have something to justify the expense, I would get both. they're interesting to run side by side, you can hand things off from one to the other. Pretty neat. Unfortunately now I just want to have both :(

by timcobb 3mo ago
Oh yes, their need to cover themselves is understandable for sure :)

by timcobb 3mo ago
Because if this person was paying enterprise for tokens, they: 1. wouldn't write stuff like "I've only spent a few hundred dollars using gpt-5.5/5.6 and codex" 2. wouldn't think tokens are cheap

It's not understandable IMO, bad guys will still have guns.

Because we pay retail consumer prices (subscriptions). Those same tokens cost many thousands on enterprise billing:/

OP's post clearly described his thought process and experience. What are experience are you basing your assertions on?
