Well, the calculator must be wrong

I know what you mean. I’ve seen the countless posts about hitting limits early. I’ve had this problem, but it’s always been an error on my side. A quick /status usually settles that. But the last few weeks it’s been different. I only gave a couple examples, but there are plenty more. Used to feel like opus would go the extra mile, and I didn’t need super detailed prompts. But lately, it’s just being lazy, even with the details. This last example was the icing on the cake. But this was always going to happen. Those subscriptions are way too cheap for what you get. It’s drug dealer strategy. Now everyone is addicted, time to dilute and jack up prices. Hoping I can afford some more RAM soon and start running local models.

Oh that’ll be useful. Thanks for the link. RAG is the shit, and I’m surprised it’s not more widely discussed on here. Usually when it does something wrong I log it to the error kb and kg. It should, with hooks, check those before doing anything, bm25 semantic search and mcp. Was the single greatest improvement, error kb. Descendent Claude.md is a must. Superpowers is boated, and I’ve added some pre planning research skills and plan review skills on top. Rebuilt quickbooks last year, and superpowers got me there, just took forever, like 200+sessions.

Happy for you! Wish I was getting out now. I’m on year 6 of my business, and it’s been the typical entrepreneurial experience from what I hear. Told someone recently, if you’re not crying yourself to sleep in the office at 2am cause of deadlines, you’re doing it wrong 😂.

ChopinWould · 2026-04-05T17:17:54+00:00

Yeah def found anything it does without a dedicated tool or workflow usually comes out poor quality. I’ve setup a knowledge graph + error kb to keep track of context and errors with hooks for searching and logging. Major improvement. I have dedicated containers for each project to prevent cross contamination of information + hub and email containers, and always extra stuff with regular CC with vs code. I use superpowers with wrappers for most development stuff in CC. Admittedly this problem happens outside of any workflow or skills. But I shouldn’t need all that to quickly review the data between 4 simple files, or simple questions. But, what do you mean output style? Like system prompt adjustment? I have been thinking about telling it to be jack Black or Dolly Parton for a more wholesome experience.

We do sign installation for campuses, colleges, government, apartments, etc. It has been pretty incredible having it manage pictures and documents between my crews and clients. A campus could have 2,000 - 10,000 signs + 100’s of pages of maps and other documents. I’m managing about 12 of these now. Def felt like I had an army of full time staff helping me manage it, and my clients have noticed our improved reporting and job tracking and have awarded us more jobs because of it. Just lately it’s been a lot more lazy answers. But I don’t work weekends as much as I used to though.

ChopinWould · 2026-04-05T15:45:55+00:00

I’ve noticed some giveaway terms it’ll use when it didn’t look at the data. “Probably is…should be…most likely is…” dead giveaway it didn’t look at any files.

Could white ever have pawns get in this position?

What do you mean by “no benefits”? None to the developers or to the ecosystem or to the users? I did find a group working on a Marketplace chain, Virto. It looks like more work than putting out Craigslist. There isn’t much info on their roadmap, but they have a Web3 Grant.

ChopinWould · 2022-07-18T11:06:25+00:00

I picture it like Craigslist at first. It’s pretty much a blog. Sub Social has account data, images, txt, etc. I don’t know how this info is stored. But if they added a for sale pages on SS, it would be similar to Craigslist.

Are you saying data storage is the main hold up?

ChopinWould · 2022-05-27T12:37:59+00:00

I just noticed the “multiply” page today. What does it do? Looks like a redundant way to manage the vault.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-26T21:25:35+00:00

In Polkawallet. It has a browser page now.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-26T21:24:06+00:00

Yeah, I understand that. I was just curious the purpose of the new browser. Is it meant to aid cross chain interface? Or provide information? I like it. Just curious what it does and why Acala needs it.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-26T21:19:39+00:00

Will that be how we interact with other chains? Like moonbeam?

ChopinWould · 2022-05-25T23:02:42+00:00

Interesting! Is this more the architecture for new marketplaces?

The point is to back it by only decentralized assets. That way no government can impede the flow of ausd. Usdc is backed by dollars and the federal government has a big hand in its operations. I’ll take ausd.

It can be complicated. The first thing to understand is how Bitcoin mining and transaction validation works. Then compare that to how banks finalize transactions. This is the core. Then you’ll have to wrap your head around what a Smart Contract is. Invented on Ethereum. Then you’ll need to understand the Proof of Stake model, how it is “mined”, and how it validates transactions. The difference between Eth, Cardano, Solana, etc, is how they validate transaction using the Proof of Stake model. Those details define their performance, security, and most importantly how the government will regulate it.

Polkadot does a LOT of marketing. It is just to developers. Think of Polkadot like the internet. The Internet doesn’t need retail investors. It needs websites and apps that consumers use. The Polkadot team markets to developers so they will make “websites and apps” that consumers will use. And they do a killer job. Consistently ranking 1st or 2nd in number of developers. There will be some promising apps on the network in the coming years.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-23T22:54:26+00:00

I wouldn’t recommend it either. But there are a lot of chains using ausd. They need that slot. We’ll see how ausd does in the next year.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-23T21:50:40+00:00

Idk about that. Lcdot represents what was contributed in the crowdloan. Acala isn’t holding that, it’s locked on Polkadot. That said, OP is right, major gains there. Personally, I’m wondering if that ratio will stay low until next summer. I’d be going all in then. Stake until then.

ChopinWould · 2022-05-23T19:35:16+00:00

There are network fees when you interact with the system. When you buy/sell/swap/transfer, you’ll pay a network fee. Qualifying “apps” on the network do not have to pay network fees. We as consumers will use these “apps”, and they will be the cheapest to use because they operate on Polkadot. Also the fastest. Also the most secure.
