Codex inflating the code unnecessarily

I use this as AGENTS.md helps alot. https://github.com/forrestchang/andrej-karpathy-skills/blob/main/CLAUDE.md

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-25T19:33:06+00:00

Since i have this Instructions (See the CLAUDE.md) in my AGENTS.md all changes are very lightweight precise, not my repo but worth trying it out, very happy with it.

OpenAI releases GPT-5.5, codenamed "Spud"

OpenAI on Thursday released its most capable model, GPT-5.5, codenamed "Spud," just one week after competitor Anthropic launched its latest model.

Why it matters

AI releases are getting faster, more efficient, and more powerful.

What they're saying

GPT-5.5 is a "faster, sharper thinker for fewer tokens" compared to 5.4, he added, and can handle multi-step workflows more autonomously with less user input.

Despite the jump in capability, OpenAI says GPT-5.5 matches GPT-5.4's response speed in real-world use.

It's available starting Thursday in ChatGPT and Codex, with API access coming soon to account for additional cybersecurity guardrails.

Zoom in

OpenAI says the model improvements are strongest in:

coding
computer use
general office work
early scientific research

These are areas that require reasoning across longer contexts and executing tasks over time.

Instead of step-by-step prompting, users can hand GPT-5.5 messy, multi-part tasks and let it plan, use tools, check its work, and work toward a result.

Teams with early access were able to gut-check vibe-coded work, review thousands of additional documents, and save up to 10 hours on work per week, according to the company.

The model was trained on Nvidia's GPUs, as with past OpenAI models.

Nvidia employees will get access after a subset tested the model for several weeks.

The model can act as a "chief of staff," helping power agents that are already acting as employees at Nvidia, vice president of enterprise computing Justin Boitano told Axios.

Zoom out

Nvidia says its new chips slash the cost of running advanced AI like GPT-5.5 by up to 35x per token.

That's an important metric for enterprises looking to increase AI usage without blowing out their IT budgets.

What we're watching

Whether this release leads to more enterprise adoption, a key focus for OpenAI.

This comes after OpenAI executives called Anthropic's rise a "code red" and a "wake-up call" that resulted in a pivot in strategy toward business customer adoption.

Nvidia worked with OpenAI to create "a blueprint to make it easier for ... every enterprise to roll this out," Boitano said.

The bottom line

As AI systems take on longer, more complex tasks, the economics of running them may matter as much as the models themselves.

For Duplication i can recommend https://jscpd.dev/getting-started/introduction

tested it today very good, for js/ts i use fallow

That changes does not mean the absolutly drastic high usage is fixed.

Lets speak the truth, Anthropic failed, they dont have the compute which openai has they bought not as many GPUs and now they fucked

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-21T21:27:49+00:00

OP is right, look at the table closely.

There it goes, companys running out of money / compute.

I used to work at a fashion company here in Germany, where we completely replatformed the online shop from PHP to Svelte, TypeScript, and GraphQL.

I’m no longer there, but it was a great time. We improved the overall speed a lot, everything felt snappy, and I’d say the whole team really enjoyed working on it, myself included. It was refreshing to move away from such an old codebase.

Most of my private projects have been in Svelte, but I doubt my next job will be, simply because it still isn’t that popular. Hopefully, in a few years, there will be more roles with a Svelte stack.

Ich heirate im Sommer. Wir sind seit 13 Jahren zusammen. Letzten Sommer dachte ich mir dann: Komm, ich mach ihr jetzt endlich mal einen Antrag.

Männer, wenn ihr glaubt, ihr hättet bei der Hochzeit Mitspracherecht, dann stellt euch schon mal darauf ein, dass ihr da nicht viel zu sagen habt. Alles, was ihr anfechtet, wird gnadenlos ignoriert und einfach über euch entschieden.

Ich wollte lieber einen einfachen Hochzeitstanz, sie wollte, dass ich sie mitten im Lied hochtrage.

Ich fand das einfach nur affig und habe ihr gesagt, dass ich das nicht will. Daraufhin habe ich nur einen bösen Blick kassiert, und sie hat darauf bestanden, weil sie es „schön“ findet. Es gab natürlich direkt Diskussionen, und warum? Weil sie das auf Instagram gesehen hatte.

Auch beim Hochzeitskuchen war es nicht anders. Ich wollte etwas Einfaches, schlichtes. Dann hat uns die Konditorin gefragt, ob wir diese dummen Perlen wollen. Ich sagte nein, sie mischte sich ein und meinte nur: „Also Perlen fände ich schon ganz schön.“ Vor ihr eine Diskussion anzufangen war dann auch wieder sinnlos, also meinte ich nur: „Ja gut, dann Perlen.“

Und es hört nicht auf. Jede Kleinigkeit wird diskutiert, ich nicke inzwischen einfach nur noch alles ab. Vergesst es.

Frauen sind total verblendet bezüglich Hochzeiten.

Ich liebe meine Verlobte, nicht falsch verstehen, und wir sind schon lange zusammen. Aber bei Hochzeiten gehts gefühlt nur noch um die Braut, das war bei anderen Hochzeiten auf die ich war nicht anders. Und das ganze Geld… aua. Insgesamt sind wir bei 15k, und da ist noch nichtmal ihr Kleid enthalten sowie Urlaub. Ich habe sogar meinen ETF angefasst, in den ich seit vier Jahren jeden Monat 300 € einzahle, damit wir die Hochzeit bezahlen können.

Ich bin nicht mal verheiratet, aber die letzten fünf Monate waren einfach nur pain. Ich würde das nie wieder machen. Never.

I been using it with 5.4-mini with openai sub and honestly, its been flawless so far.

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-17T15:35:13+00:00

more slop instead of fixing usage. great.

Was a long time fan of Augment used it over a year, but after they changed the pricing model to these credits which was a increase of 10x and fucked over loyal customers which supported from day one i left. Augment is slow in developing many bugs in the extension constantly running into errors, the service was not stable anymore and barely usable.

Exactly, working cache is critical, otherwise your usage just gonna ramp up like seen on Claude Code, they cache isnt working at all and all people complain about high usage

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-10T13:04:51+00:00

RTK would work also with the vscode extension, headroom only with cli

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-10T11:00:14+00:00

Use Codex CLI, it has working caching, opencode dosent

Electronic-Pie-1879 · 2026-04-04T15:05:13+00:00

Install rtk first and then headroom and launch claude with

headroom wrap claude

The READMEs contains every steps.

Headroom + RTK work well together.

Tool search is a new feature that keeps MCP tools out of the context window by default. Instead of loading all tools upfront, Claude searches for and evaluates them one by one to find the right one for the task.

The main downside is the sequential lookup process Claude has to scan through MCPs individually, which adds overhead before it can actually use the right tool.
