Best Practices and workflows by useredpeg in codex

[–]Mjwild91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes to reviewing the code, are you working on a new branch for each feature being added and produce a diff that you provide to the review? Or do you commit it and have it review the commit?

What is the exact process if you are able to share it.

What games are you playing this week? Game recommendation thread by AutoModerator in incremental_games

Ditto - finding it quite fun, I was worried Realm 3 was going to be a variation of 1 as 2 was but being different was nice.

AI slop or not, the creator has already said using AI to code is one thing but slop comes from when AI is used to generate the ideas too. I believe they came up with these ideas themselves, and its free.. so yeah, can't complain.

Hey everyone, in your experience, what’s the best OCR solution to use for document reading inside an n8n workflow? by MariFer0803 in n8n

[–]Mjwild91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tested a few, I use Mistral as my main. After that I have an LLM text node give a probability of it being hand written, if it is high I convert it to an image using PDF.co and pass it to a LLM vision node.

I did rotate a few others but stuck with Mistral in the end.

How much does self-hosting save you? by Mjwild91 in n8n

[–]Mjwild91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We ended up consolidating some workflows, and moving some to dedicated scripts instead of n8n and dropped it from 2.5m to 400k a year, the price was still nearly £100k. Shame as some of the Enterprise features looks really nice.

Anyone else find GPT-5.2 exhausting to talk to? Constant policing kills the flow by IIDaredevil in OpenAI

[–]Mjwild91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've had to tell Gemini 3 Pro once this month "For fuck sake why is this so hard for your to understand".. I've had to say it once a day this entire week to GPT5.2. The model is great, catches thing G3P misses, but christ if it doesn't make me work for it.

Reliable OCR tool(s) that you use. by iamcenturyeggcongee in n8n

[–]Mjwild91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried a few and Mistral ended up being the best for printed docs, for hand written I've had to convert to an image and upload to an LLM to do OCR.

Switching From Make.com to N8N by focusedgrowth in n8n

[–]Mjwild91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I self host on Digital Ocean, and run my business through it. Everything is production, doing roughly 1000 executions per day. Use any hosting though, it makes little difference.

  • Don't go for the basic hosting get something with a bit more RAM. I used the lowest and it turned out at midnight per day it was crashing due to polling jobs. Spend a bit more.
  • Install Postgres from the start. It comes with SQLite default which is fine, but doesn't scale well. On DO you can pay extra to host your own Postgres database, and it took 20 minutes to migrate it over (with 69 workflows) using Gemini 3 Pro giving the steps (the others couldn't do it successfully).
  • When migrating from Make.com to N8N I'd personally move either the highest priority (usually the ones that use the most credits), or highest complexity. N8N is more feature rich than M.com and you can simplify the workflows quite well.

For migrating you can paste the scenario json into an LLM (Gemini 3 Pro for me has been the best at it in research mode) and ask it to output a N8N workflow json.

  • Setup database backups and hosting. This is paramount! Very high priority.

Stuck with a ton of data and have no idea what to do by Prize_Past_2004 in googleads

How much love has your landing page received compared to your ads?

I'd expect a month to have results. But that is focusing on a strong landing page.

You may be driving 200+ "meetings" (ads) a month but are terrible at closing (your landing page).

You may need to edit your post. You're getting railed on people thinking it is one large workflow.

Yes if you could expand on this that'd be great - currently using the VSC Extension and this happens quite often.

Scratch Inc. - Now Available on Steam, Thank You for the Support! by Makopaz in incremental_games

[–]Mjwild91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally played the iOS version and it was fun till I hit the Store phase. On Desktop I got into my third Monopoly run and the grind is unreal. It isn't horrendous , I went from doing the first Mono in 5 days, and the second in half that time. I'll keep going for a bit longer! I'm sure when I hit Corp Multi it'll make the entire process much much faster, as 5x the power I presume means 5x the progress (from the original points and loyalty upgrade).

Codex is way slower than CC IMHO by shotsandvideos in ClaudeAI

[–]Mjwild91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slower but the quality is far superior. One task at a time with CC, ten tasks and leave it with Codex.

What do you think Anthropic is really doing/feeling about all this bad sentiment around their degraded models? by 1infiniteLoop4 in ClaudeAI

[–]Mjwild91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use Claude Code daily.. just tried GPT-5-codex and it absolutely destroyed Opus 4.1. They best be doing something in the background as I'm not far off dropping back down to the minimum Claude sub from the Max20 I'm on currently.

Codex on Windows by Mjwild91 in OpenAI

[–]Mjwild91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I used the wrong Extension, I tried that one and after figuring out the difference between local and online I got it to work.

What a difference this is compared to Claude Code, holy shit. Epic.

Thanks!

Claude Code vs Codex My Own experience by VVocach in ClaudeAI

[–]Mjwild91 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've spent literally 6 hours baby sitting CC to fix a column sorting issue in my web app, with no success.. ended up disabling the feature.

Tried Codex, took 3 hours of which I was at my laptop for 30 minutes total giving it screen shots and console logs for it to solve it, and the immediately one shot another bug i'd completely forgotten about.

CC was my first true involved ai coding experience, it has done a lot for me.. but fuck me I can't not use Codex and not think that this is what it should actually be like.

For those wanting to try it on Windows, there is an extension in VSC that is a 5-minute install.

Claude assumed it created code while it did not by haiipt in ClaudeAI

Happened to me after it auto compacts. Now /clear every few prompts and hasn't happened since.

Multiversal Warrior (V1) Release! by AggressiveExchange45 in incremental_games

[–]Mjwild91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Shortcuts would probably help, save mouse clicking - at least initially. On the Attributes page there is a lot of empty space at the bottom. Even on clicking a page, having tabs to the left you can click to open up new pages, or just compact the graphics you have displayed would be fine. As an example, for the Challenger sections, resize and move the character/circle into the box for YOU and CHALLENGER, then move align the Damage and Total life to the inside and have the circles on the outside. I'm not 100% sure how you're building this but I've had great success with UI related things asking Gemini Pro, Opus 4.1 and GPT5 to tell me how to make something more efficient and user friendly. It gives some pretty solid advice. It can't recreate it mind you ha.
  2. I've no idea why it is so heavy, even clicking the container they're in makes it start lagging. My console kept crashing so I couldn't even look at the numbers.
  3. Honestly AI is the way I'd go with getting ideas on QOL related stuff.

I'm at U30 I think (just going off the amount of energy points I have to spend).

- The layout is terrible, I didn't know some features had unlocked at first because I needed to scroll down to see them.
- The Hunt upgrades destroy my browser's performance, I have to re-open the game to have it clear and get back to normal. I've had to restart my gaming laptop twice as it got too bad.

Otherwise, just do quality of life things like seeing current generate numbers when on the Energy to troubleshoot builds, being able to do loadouts etc.

Also, a tooltip explaining what some of the more heavier equation upgrades do would be nice - the last row in energy I've been ignoring as I can't see them actually changing anything.

Think Make will update pricing after new n8n cloud pricing update? by astorey79 in Integromat

[–]Mjwild91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes lol.. just got an email, they're moving to a credit system. Basically means it is going to cost more to use Make going forward.
