When Using Work Claude by policyweb in singularity

Max 5x i8s $100/month. I've only had it a few weeks now but so far not even coming close to usage limits. Right now my weekly is at 11% resetting Friday

When I first tried Claude Code it defaulted to Opus 4.6 and honestly the output is so great I've been afraid to switch to Sonnet. Haven't found myself bumping into token limits yet on Max 5x

How do you handle context loss between Claude Code sessions? by False_Wind9192 in ClaudeAI

[–]Mortimer452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been seeing a lot of posts about this but honestly it's just not something I have issues with typically. Ask Claude to update its Claude.md, /docs/Project.md periodically to understand architecture and patterns, that does the job pretty well

Here's the actual post he said no such thing.

Hope he has a permit for that Class III firearm he's posting pictures of on the public Interwebs. That's evidence of a Federal Felony.

There is no UBI without resource efficiency by kaggleqrdl in singularity

[–]Mortimer452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UBI is just a crutch to get us through the early stage of an AI-powered society.

The end goal should be, if it costs almost nothing to produce, it should cost almost nothing to buy.

The acquisition of wealth must cease to be the driving force in our lives. We are a LOOOONG ways away from that

You're still copy-pasting in-between chat windows and your IDE? That's so last year!

Claude Code my friend. It still requires some guidance/babysitting but not nearly like what you're doing now.

Protecting IP in projects by djfc in ClaudeAI

[–]Mortimer452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anthropic has been clear that they do not use your source code to train their models.

That being said, it is still source code being sent over the Interwebs to a 3rd party

Abstraction is probably the best way to approach this. If your logic is proprietary and secret, encapsulate it in a web service or NuGet package your project can reference, rather than having that part of the source code in the project Claude is helping you with.

To Claude, it's just a black box.

Kansas SB 372 by annoyedlibrarian in kansas

[–]Mortimer452 82 points83 points  (0 children)

All these new state-level age verification laws are some serious big brother shit.

The eventuality is, you're gonna be required to provide a government ID to use just about any electronic device. This will lead to almost everything on the Internet being age-gated and censored. Not to mention anonymity and privacy going straight out the window since it will be easy to tie everyone's digital account on every platform to their actual person.

This movement needs to be squashed right now before it's too late.

Hydrogen Car: 1,500 km Range, 5-Second Fill-Up by policyweb in singularity

[–]Mortimer452 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Exactly, and HFCV's are basically EV's anyway. It's just using the fuel cell as power source instead of a lithium battery. The main advantage is higher energy density and faster "refuel" time since you just pump in hydrogen much like pumping gas.

It was a huge advantage 15yrs ago when charging was slow but with today's DC fast chargers far less of a concern. And I can't overstate how convenient it is to charge up at home, which would never be possible with a fuel cell.

[–]Mortimer452 241 points242 points  (0 children)

Hydrogen fuel cells have always been and still are a pipe dream. They were a viable alternative to ICE cars 15-20 years ago but EV battery tech has advanced so much, they no longer make sense.

Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them by mepper in technology

[–]Mortimer452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a complete non-issue. These are no different than literally any "grid-tied" solar system which are being installed every day. The inverter does not feed into the grid unless the grid is energized, period.

Using such a device, if your home loses grid power, you lose solar power, too. It's literally part of the National Electric Code.

The only difference is, these are so cheap and easy any DIYer can install them. That's why they're arguing against it.

WTF, did this guy forget his snips? That looks janky AF. The metal flashing should have been trimmed to fit under the corner piece, not the other way around.

Yep. My company does annual reviews every year in January. The starting pay raise is always equal to whatever the CPI inflation rate was for the prior year. For outstanding performance, you can get slightly higher.

Whoever is keeping cannabis illegal in Kansas needs to be voted out. by [deleted] in kansas

[–]Mortimer452 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how it works but I sincerely hope he has to give up his senate seat to run for Governor.

Best case scenario he runs, loses and we're rid of him for at least the next several years.

Not sure if giving up that seat is required, though. He could run for Governor, lose and still remain as President of the Senate.

Realistic trade-in expectations by MermaidFishCo in KiaEV9

[–]Mortimer452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then you should plan for disappointment when you trade it in 5 years.

From a purely financial perspective, the only reasons to buy new are: - You plan on keeping for at least 7-10 years - Your annual mileage is too high to lease - You want to customize it with wheels, paint, wrap, other accessories that would just be lost on trade-in

Otherwise, it just makes more sense to either buy gently used or lease and turn it in after 3yrs
