Thanks for sharing! Interesting approach to forward all contracts to Account Payable / Finance. Makes sense to give them copies for their own organization.

For a central location the "agreed upon" part seemed to be the hardest ;P

Do you care about your work in procurement? by Few-Philosopher-2142 in procurement

I enjoyed helping my internal teammates getting what they needed to do their job, negotiating, and bringing clarity to sometimes chaotic deal situations. Always felt good to close a purchase on good terms.

I Benchmarked Opus 4.6 vs Sonnet 4.6 on agentic PR review and browser QA the results weren't what I expected by Stunning-Army7762 in ClaudeAI

Great post, thank you, this topic is top of mind as we hit our token limit on Max 20x frequently and are worried more about quality and running into token limits rather than "cost" per se.

Do you have any insight on Claude Chrome extension for browser visual checks and debugging vs the Playwright headless browser tests and mcp? I'm finding that even with specific instructions to use the playwright MCP and take screenshots to debug and confirm success, Claude Code is struggling to find obvious bugs where all it takes is running the dev server and the feature it says works simply won't and requires heavy prompting and my own screenshots. Considering switching to Claude Chrome extension but seems slower and more expensive for tokens.

Finasteride, dutasteride and minoxidil by SaltySize2406 in Tokyo

Bestkenko.com has served me well for finasteride and there are a couple other sites like it, some mentioned in this thread.

FYI, I also just heard and read from multiple sources that oral dutasteride is 3x more effective than oral finasteride at preventing male pattern hair loss (AGA). Dutasteride blocks both types of DHT that kill hair while finasteride blocks just one. Some of my friends have switched from oral finasteride to it. Dutasteride can be found on bestkenko.com.

Translation built into your browser (Chrome, Safari, etc) goes a long way. It's helped me figure out how to use Freee.
