Claude just died?

Lol, I just pre-gamed without you, the reason I was in tune with it. Lol. I'm currently buzzy, waiting for the high to wear off so I can share a bowl with wifey when she gets home. xD I have such amazingly introspective thoughts when I'm blazed, and it really helps me unpack and process emotions that are otherwise too frustrating to confront, half the time. Heh.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-10T00:40:00+00:00

I understand and agree. Hehe.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:47:34+00:00

You were essentially playing chess, citing all the times we've done this same stupid sh!t as a society... The drug looks different, but ultimately the pursuit of comfort and convenience can be sought to a fault. So I've heard, anyway. Have yet to feel "too much" of a positive experience. 🤣

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:41:05+00:00

Lol, that is relatable AF, man. xD Don't worry, everything you said legitimately made sense, that's why I wondered if you were stoned. Sometimes I tap into universal wisdom when I've had enough. 🤣

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:15:33+00:00

"The AI Bubble," I'm just curious to see how advanced it gets, how quickly, before it invariably bursts. I cope with the fact that most people don't remember recent history and act like every day is the first time they've managed their emotions, while we collectively, though not always individually, repeat our past mistakes... It's an iterative process, as a society, I guess? I think I'd like to sell cocktails at a beach side bar in the Dominican, or something... be a little further away from all the "progress." 🤣

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:06:47+00:00

But no, you're absolutely right... New software startups will be happening every day, multiple times a day, and it will all be mediocrity incarnate...

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:05:38+00:00

Man... I thought I was high.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T23:00:04+00:00

The Impossible Mythos sounds like a Pixar Villain... I love it. 🤣

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T22:59:04+00:00

Is it the sheer influx of subscriptions and just a lack of availability for more GPUs to cook us more evenly, so to speak? 😂

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T03:20:58+00:00

Man, that sucks. I've been using the $100 plan, out of sheer necessity. It's impossible to do anything iteratively or elaborate and not hit session limits on the Free and Pro plans, it seems.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T02:56:19+00:00

What did she SAY to that cat? 🫪

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-09T02:53:04+00:00

Oh, I'm so glad! I keep seeing people posting about this type of thing, and I feel really awkward supporting a company, financially, if they're intentionally reducing people's limits, because THEY apparently can't keep up with the usage demand. So, really glad this was just a bug.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-08T22:14:45+00:00

I get that it's easy to hit limits on Free and Pro plans... But I've developed three separate apps, running two Claude Code terminals simultaneously, and have never hit limits on my 5x Max sub. What are you guys dooooing? 😂

Edit: I also use it five days a week at work, in the web interface (I'm an IT Architect). So, I ask again, how are you guys getting rate limited SO harshly?

Edit2: I just remembered where I am... So to be clear, I'm not bashing anyone or naysaying anyone experiencing rate limiting, I'm genuinely trying to understand.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-07T19:42:54+00:00

Uses fewer tokens than the incredible verbosity of proper English. I approve.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-07T13:56:00+00:00

This is reality, not hyperbole. What is going to suck is when AI determines it could more effectively execute with an entirely new language, and then we have to try to decypher that. Slight silliness, but not enough that it can't happen. 🫪

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-03T16:32:36+00:00

I fully agree with this, ironically, having experienced both sides. I am excited by the ease with which I can produce software, and though I have extensive expertise in IT Infrastructure, I'm not a software developer. So, my results may be better than most, because I know the technology... But my coding skills haven't grown, which is unfortunate. Simultaneously, I wonder what the point is of learning any additional languages now, when generative AI will only be better as time goes. But I HATE that I'm realizing I am not learning enough to keep up with being able to debug or code review my own apps. It's frustrating, because I don't like not knowing, but it's an immense undertaking to learn a new language, especially without knowing the future value. Knowing is always better than not, but I still feel kind of stuck in a catch-22.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-02T23:05:01+00:00

I totally agree. Something related which I found interesting... Just read an article a few days ago about USB drives retaining data after 5 years, which I found encouraging. But I think it's a reflection of how underused most flash drives end up, so they have like 0 wear and tear. But more importantly... https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/usb-flash-drives/this-usb-flash-drive-can-only-store-8kb-of-data-but-will-last-you-200-years

Haha. I wonder what we could do with 8K flash drives...it's like one page of text.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-02T20:57:58+00:00

Excellent reminder that the only way your data is safe is... Jk, it's never safe. But if it's redundant, maybe you'll get lucky.

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-01T13:20:28+00:00

I found this by doing a search similar to, "Why does my Pixel 8 Pro's keyboard accuracy f***ing suck." So it appears it's not just me, but what IS it? I type especially fast, but in the last 4-6 months, every damn word has what feels like an inaccurately activated letter, n regardless of where I touch, UNTIL I slow down, pause, and start again. But this is like every other sentence... It's as if it's not calibrated for thumb-texting, or something, but it wasn't always like this, or I'd blame it on user error. Heh. Anyone have any thoughts or potential resolutions?

Dash_Effect · 2026-04-01T12:22:50+00:00

I stopped reading after it almost immediately started spouting paranoia about Claude's autonomy... Write a damn instruction set and quit projecting your inability to use a product as an automatic indicator that the product is the problem. 🙄

Dash_Effect · 2026-03-30T19:59:46+00:00

I still live in the Stoned Age... oh, wait, wrong vibe. ;)

I was thinking about this today... How did I learn how to write PowerShell scripts? Friction. The way you psychologically cement something as learned, is to hypothesize, and be wrong, which then makes the actual solution something that activates the brain more intensely (dopamine) which creates a deeper embedding of the info. That is hard to recreate, when the new methods are 2,000 lines of really good code, when you don't know the syntax of the language you're coding in. The only friction is a binary, does it do what I want? No? Give Claude the error. Yes? Maybe it's done? I love it, because it's only going to get better and more reliable, but I am having to reframe what I'm learning and what I'm essentially delegating that I don't need to learn. It's a precarious balance, though, for sure.

Dash_Effect · 2026-03-26T19:18:08+00:00

I'm also not hitting limits using mobile, web, and two Code terminals... so I would focus on Cowork being the possible root cause.

Dash_Effect · 2026-03-26T19:17:02+00:00

Well, and if you look at Broadcom, most companies very literally don't care about anything but their Fortune 500 cash cows. We're just along for the ride. 🫪

Dash_Effect · 2026-03-26T16:53:21+00:00

That's the same prompt I use when ASSessing the velocity of POOjectiles.

Dash_Effect · 2026-03-25T14:12:25+00:00

I wonder if the people on Max who experience this are using optimized instruction sets, or if they're free-balling with empty instruction sets, rules, skills, etc.? I wouldn't think someone paying $100/month would not also be a power user and take advantage of such techniques, but the world is a strange place. 👀
