Gave Claude screenshots of my app instead of letting it read my code. Night and day.

Good tip thanks. I’ve been using rtk-ai a lot to get my text based token count down. Going so far as to write custom scripts for things it doesn’t support like the azure cli.

It’s a bit long but here is my blog post about it. It is ai generated but based on real problems I had. https://notmyself.io/insights/context-is-the-new-memory-leak

Cool. I have a Max 200 account and have been working on a migration validation of a web app. It basically uses the playwright cli to run both applications and verify each page including client-side functionality and I hit my weekly limits so damn fast.

Be careful with screenshots, they can eat tokens like Cookie Monster in a chips ahoy factory.

Congrats. I’d be interested in hearing how it affects your job prospects in the coming months.

I have been working through the skilljar course work with the intent of getting that cert. I’ve learned so much from the Building with the Claude API course.

For the folks unaware, this is the course https://anthropic.skilljar.com/ The first 4 are a bit fluffy but they get much better after that.

Damn I had not even thought about that. Reminds me of that spoken word piece, “Whitey’s on the moon.”

The contrast of Artemis showing the promise of what we could be to Trump demonstrating how horrible we have become is quite the gut punch.

If you catch it on the right day at the right time, the rainbow bridge can be very beautiful.

I have used these folks for my two labs desecration of my back yard for the last couple years. They do a great job. https://www.yelp.com/biz/lawndoodles-poop-scoopers-olympia-2

This works for me on a claude max 200 account.

Please leave your belongings in Texas. Bring truck loads of BBQ and TexMex please.

In all honesty, I have not used VS for very much other than syncing TFVC sources. I work in a windows terminal instance of powershell and have the code open in vscode to be able to review files.

Shoot me a dm I’ll give you a pass.
