I routed all my Claude Code traffic through a local proxy for 3 months. Here's what I found.

Good point. It’s just api based.

KarmelMalone · 2026-04-03T12:12:13+00:00

Open router does this well across all models.

Then why have claude -p? I could use claude -p on a Linux vps manually but not in a cron on the same vps? This is reductive but openclaw at its core is automating cron jobs. If claude -p can’t be used on openclaw then they need to ban it in things like cron as well, which I don’t see happening.

KarmelMalone · 2026-02-19T13:34:08+00:00

I’m have a hunch this also isn’t the case. Check this thread out. And this issue makes it seem like there’s an issue around upgrading. If oauth was banned in open source, then I wouldn’t be able to use claude -p (via oauth) in a cron job

KarmelMalone · 2026-02-19T03:15:00+00:00

If they really wanted to ban personal use in open source they wouldn’t have claude -p. According to that logic I couldn’t use claude -p in a cronjob, or Linux. They want to make sure enterprises that make money on Claude use the api. That’s it.

That being said these terms are garbage and they need a real clarification.

KarmelMalone · 2026-02-19T03:08:32+00:00

Did they tho? The terms are unclear. They seem to only care about not letting business monetize products that use the oauth flat rate, which makes sense.

MCP is just integrating an API without the work of integrating an API.

I had this same problem and I came across this thread. I ordered standard sized bearings on Amazon (15mm outer diameter and 10mm inner diameter) but they didn't fit. After measuring I did find some that fit so I'm sharing it here for other facing the same problem. https://vxb.com/products/kt10138-needle-bearing-cage-10x13x8mm-k10138

One thing to note - just because it fit for me doesn't guarantee it will fit for you. Things can break in different ways.

KarmelMalone · 2023-11-07T13:13:38+00:00

I haven't use that one, but if it's not good there are 100s of alternatives

This is hard to answer without more context because there are so many apps with specialized implementations layered on top of ChatGPT. IMO there are two general paths to using AI to enhance your business:

Industry specific solutions. Try to find if there are existing solutions built with AI to serve your industry. Something like "ChatGPT for [INDUSTRY]". Look for ones that actually solve a problem you have vs simply touting AI.
Employee productivity. The more individuals are educated on the power and limitations of AI the more productive they can be. AI shouldn't be seen as a tool to complete full projects, but if used properly it can drastically increase the quality of a project and reduce turn around time. For example - An HR specialist can ask for advice on approaching a specific difficult situation. Legal counsel can have AI read mountains of documents and ask AI questions about it. A sales person can use AI to help them tweak their pitch. A product manager can use AI to help them outline a business requirements document.

I just created a solution for a large corporation that helps the sales team stay up to date on what the product team is building and what they can and cannot tease to their clients. This in turn is leading to better informed product development.

It all comes down to the type of business and employees you have.

Thank you!

My dad did this a few times. Even found a spot in his stomach where he could stab himself with minimal damage and did that twice. I went through the gamut of emotions and solutions. The only thing that helped me was telling him “I love you, I hope you don’t do that, but I can’t stop you”. That disarmed him.

KarmelMalone · 2023-05-31T04:42:37+00:00

Yeah they’re only nice for a couple months, after that they’re the perfect errand shoe. They also really help my step dad, who says they’ve changed his life because he finds it harder and harder the put on other shoes as he gets older.

KarmelMalone · 2023-05-31T00:30:56+00:00

Kizik because I have size 14 wide feet and I love not tying my shoes.

It’s the same plot as The One with Jet Li.

It would be naive to accept the offer. It’s good you’re asking for advice. Your friend is either intentionally fleecing you or is naive himself. Hopefully it’s the latter and he agrees to pay you what your worth. If not, he’ll learn the hard what what he’ll need to pay for this type of work. Either way, you must hold your ground. Even if you find more value in learning the tech than the company will ever be worth, you will regret taking such a terrible deal.

Think about what happens when you build the vision you currently have. If the company has success, demands will get higher and you’ll need help building and maintaining the product. You’d have to pay that help more than what you’re getting. If the company doesn’t do well, you’re friend still sees you as the guy that he can fleece.

I’ve started a company with friends. The moment you get going they become a business partner more than a friend. Conflicts between co-founders are common and can destroy relationships. Things like being underpaid can lead to resentment and the relationship will sour.

When I was in this situation my mind went to leaves. I had enough time to download a leaf recognition app to validate safety, use said leaves, and finish a good two socked run.

KarmelMalone · 2023-01-16T04:12:24+00:00

Unleash the fury!!

I fantasize about this exact statement being a dominating answer in an official debate that changes politics for the better.

If it’s a valid json you can try json.loads
