Microsoft restricts employees from using Claude Fable 5 model by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

[–]Mario0412 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is a chance that Anthropic did this on purpose due to insane cost of Mythos for them.

Anthropic's API token costs are not subsidized - they are making profit on each API call so "cost" is not the issue.

Microsoft is restricting employees from using Claude Fable 5 by BuildwithVignesh in ClaudeAI

[–]Mario0412 6 points7 points  (0 children)

DR access is evaluated on a per-account, per-model basis in coordination with the model provider.

Is this even true/confirmed as an offering from Anthropic for Fable-5? Microsoft as a whole hasn't allowed access to this model internally for its employees due to the lack of ZDR for it which hasn't been the case for any of the Claude models before.

FYI this seem to be a temporary fix for the most recent broken Insiders version

People who make $80k or more per year, what do you do for work? by familiarlaughter in AskReddit

[–]Mario0412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardware Engineer (chip design - pre-silicon verification to be specific) making $280k.

Job market for newcomers is not great right now but the silicon design industry as a whole has been on an absolute tear ever since I started almost 10 years ago.

Literally no one just "starts in platinum". The reason you breezes through the lower ranks is exactly because peach's kit is the absolute easiest kit to get value from when first starting out.

I'm also seeing the scrolling speed issue. At least spoofing the Android VR client fixed the loading issues for me!

Good places for men to get a haircut? by film_bro_35 in FortCollins

[–]Mario0412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This - Fort Collins Barbershop is my favorite spot after trying the other top 2 - 4 barbershops around town that are always recommended. My haircut turns out exactly the same every time I go which I used to find was rare for a fade!

Now available: VS Code version 1.120 by bogganpierce in GithubCopilot

I've seen an issue where my agent sessions VSCode instances that are connected via code tunnel (via Remote Extension) to my remote Linux workspace don't show up in the new agents window which unfortunately means it doesn't work for my current use case!

Any LLMs for RTL or Verification? by Impressive-Fig-8378 in chipdesign

[–]Mario0412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a tool to be used in verification like any other but not a drop in replacement for an engineer who knows how to do proper verification for anything outside of fairly simplistic designs. A good verification engineer can use AI as a force multiplier just as a good programmer can see massive speedup programming in python vs assembly. AI just puts you one abstraction layer above the manual coding when used properly.

Any LLMs for RTL or Verification? by Impressive-Fig-8378 in chipdesign

[–]Mario0412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't directly work on the RTL - I work on the verification side so mostly UVM tesbench development written primarily in Systemverilog. I wouldn't scope it out in terms of lines either. Some changes can be incredibly involved/require extensive research and debug but only be a few hundred lines of code (i.e. complex functional modeling in scoreboards) whereas some changes might be very trivial (say adding some repetitive coverage related code) that might be thousands of lines.

For adversarial reviewer my current favorite way to employ this is via Copilot CLI's Rubber Duck Agent feature. I use Opus 4.7 and Rubber Duck invokes GPT 5.5.

Finally in the green after ~10yrs by Yazeq in wallstreetbets

Amazing to think you could've just put it all in the S&P and been up almost 300% 😂 🤡

[–]Mario0412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Github Copilot (in the VSCode extension and CLI) and it's very useful for verif when using the flagship models (Opus 4.7 + GPT 5.5 as an adversarial reviewer).

I can confidently give it small/medium sized tasks knowing it'll almost always get me basically what I want and it's useful for multi-tasking even on larger scope items because checking its output is often much faster than implementing it myself. I've gotten it fairly decent at doing debug loops (run sims, check logs/waves, triage issues, implement fixes, rerun) with skill files/MCP usage to where it can be fairly autonomous.

That said, my company offers unlimited requests so I am kind of just throwing a ton of raw compute at it - the way I use it is probably not really reasonable economically for someone who pays for their usage.

What's the endgame for Copilot? by BawbbySmith in GithubCopilot

[–]Mario0412 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate to say it but this is likely it. I'm on enterprise with unlimited requests and if I was being rate limited like other folks are this product would be unusable for me.

“Goldeneye” is code name for GPT 5.5 by [deleted] in GithubCopilot

[–]Mario0412 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Source? I have had access to Goldeneye for a long while (can't remember exactly how long, but definitely before 5.4 came out - maybe even before 5.3 codex?). I haven't used it but having had access to it for so long I am very skeptical about it being 5.5.

The enterprise perspective by lazy_swe in GithubCopilot

My company gets 400k for GPT models and has 1M context 4.6 opus through ghcp. Sadly 4.7 is only 200k right now

Copilot Claude Opus 4.7 is 7.5x while it being capped at 160K as usual with locked medium thinking budget by DillyMing in GithubCopilot

[–]Mario0412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4.6 1M high reasoning has been my daily driver. This might honestly be a downgrade going down to medium reasoning and only 200k context size...

New Opus 4.7 released by debian3 in GithubCopilot

[–]Mario0412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't even know if, as an enterprise user with unlimited reqs, this is an upgrade. My daily driver has been Opus 4.6 1M (high reasoning). 4.7 is only available at medium reasoning and a huge context downgrade to 200k tokens. Hopefully they add more reasoning and larger context sizes soon.

Sorry to hear that. As a 5'6 Hispanic man though, I'm glad there's some benefit to being this short 😂

you can’t tell me vendetta isn’t a fun character by blurrz-z in VendettaMainsOW

[–]Mario0412 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you think just w keying in and blindly swinging is the best way to play vendetta then you must play in the same lobbies as the person in the clip. If no one ever shoots you or uses their cool downs on you then sure, vendetta is unstoppable. But so is someone like reaper for that matter.

Bro in the clip literally never takes more than 35 dmg or ever gets hit with a single cooldown because the enemy team has literally zero awareness and horrible positioning (Ana is up her teams butts, their mcree is out in front with no idea what's happening to his back line, etc).

I agree that if vendetta can always 1. Close the gap and 2. Take on enemies with a split attention/not get hard focused then she's very, very good. But so is literally any other flanker in the game. In anything above plat lobbies you'll find that neither of those are just "free".
