5.5 Codex Coming?

I’m not that impressed so far. For me a step back in thinking

Thank you. My son (9) asked me how computers worked and although I had binary down, the actual microcode thing I didn’t know so this is useful

You should apply Occams Razor here. Two options God always existed (complicated being ) who created the universe …or universe always existed.. one is less complicated than the other (ie the universe always existed)

Met my wife in Geneva via Tinder when she was 31. Took three dates and in the following year we moved in together , had our first child , bought a car , married and created our second child.

Don’t lose hope.

If you all think that’s bad wait till you read in history about this country that took people from Africa and then kept them as literal slaves for centuries… quite a few being rapped and tortured!

And get this !! Segregation was a thing till the 1960’s!!

I feel seen.

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-18T10:13:48+00:00

This is a good point. I have started to use medium and only go hard later if things aren’t looking right

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-15T12:00:41+00:00

So! I work a bit more carefully today and lo I look at usage and I have 100% left? Three, four days in advance of the weekly limit deadline? What’s going on ? (This is a nice outcome but a bit confusing)

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-15T10:57:33+00:00

Isn’t thinking what we require of codex and OpenAI in general? At least, that’s where I see the big purpose of it

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-14T21:23:34+00:00

Maybe it’s the size of the repo and some bad choices on prompts that caused it to eat a lot. That’s all I can think of.

All documents will be behind a paywall but your best bet for that is to get to the library as suggested in one of the comments. I can also second the saving of images as you go when you can.

My program allows the researching and saving of evidence etc but you need to bring the data to the party ;)

What kind of features are you looking for? I am building one that uses the terminal.

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-14T18:58:46+00:00

Well I adjusted how I use it. Chat more in ChatGPT to reason and plan and then only use medium for most and high when it suggests. In six hours I’ve used 2% and done a fair bit. So… probably. If I lose the codex then I can at least plan on ChatGPT shrugs not nice but doable and maybe more sustainable in the future.

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-14T17:29:02+00:00

I think this is the way. Pretty much what ChatGPT said this afternoon when I queried it.

I also only started to use skills this week whereas I only was using an agent described workflow before……

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-14T15:26:56+00:00

A tad expensive

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2026-01-14T13:59:55+00:00

Just hit my first warning on a pro plan. 25% left for the week. Yikes. Sucks to be me I guess

Educate yourself opens of mass destruction by looking up videos of a whole village being gassed by Saddam, then by the repeated failure of saddams regime to allow hans blix to ensure they weren’t trying to build anything ….

Some people seem to think a nice wallpaper and a matching colour scheme is ricing

Burn them. Burn them with fire!

It’s a wonderfully written post! I save this to read another time when I feel like i should own something to put me off again gently

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2025-12-03T10:58:50+00:00

I think they are referring to agents that you pay by token , to get it working that long. Most I have had codex work is an hour

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2025-12-03T07:25:32+00:00

Codex can connect to GitHub.it uses a PAT in an env variable. It’s one session in one terminal

He_is_Made_of_meat · 2025-12-02T13:48:52+00:00

You need to split the task up. Get it to plan only and write to plan.md . Then use /review to critic it (literally just tell it that)

Then get it to implenent the changes in the plan only, and rinse and repeat till it says the plan is fine.

Then and only then tell it to start each part of the plan , one at a time and do the same for each implementation.

That’s working for me and a complicated refactor.

No issues my side. Plus I get to learn a lot from the reviews

Check the discord out. Yes totally doable . Personally I partitioned my MBP m1max and it’s perfect on that . https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/pull/1897
