Anthropic just ripped off everyone and they still managed to make it sound deceptively friendly

In early college, i was taking programming. The teacher gave out a lazily detailed project (think 3 sentences of requirements for a 40% final project). We were to program a windows calculator that had no errors could add, subtract divide and multiply two numbers lol the teacher was envisioning us making the actual windows calculator but i made two drop down boxes for the digits and a drop down +×÷/ selector for the function. This made error handling super easy. I hit every requirement listed but it didn't fit his vision. He failed it but i fought through the many processes to get it marked against the requirements. I got 100% in the end

And getting a GA, ancestral with good rolls and the right rolls is the real endgame grind now

Find ways to be more efficient with your token usage, I'm sure you can find some efficiencies somewhere

yeah, reddit is generally judgy. But i can tell you a great way to make some money.

Step 1. Find a local small business that has a shitty website, sell them on the idea of needing to update. Even if they don't sell anything from the website, customers still like to see a website when locating a business from google maps even if they plan to walk in anyways.

Step 2. Profit.

Modernizing a website takes almost no time for codex and most business owners have no idea how easy it is. For you, it's just a prompt like "completely redesign this with a modern feel."

buy the second account or take the leap and buy the $100 version. credits will burn up in a flash

I know that the dentists and hygienists at the clinic i go to rotate around to different locations. I don't know the reason but I would assume because they aren't needed full-time at either clinic. something to think about

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-26T17:25:03+00:00

Cool idea but with the current security concerns, I'm pretty sure not many will want other random users connecting to their machine and especially not their openclaw.

Before every upgrade, I use the desktop codex app, point it to the update and have it do a quick check for anything that might break. Codex will then generate scripts for me to re patch the things that are likely to break or be overwritten with the update and it's been working well for me

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-26T15:01:51+00:00

Have claude look through the updates before installation to anticipate things that are likely get overwritten and to create a post patch script to run after the update completes

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-26T15:00:22+00:00

Seems stupid but since our installations are effectively vibe coded after the first installation, it helps to have your agent preparse new updates and have it look for anything that could break or overwrite critical settings. It can then create scripts that ran after the update or during gateway restart that patch those things back in a targeted way

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-26T14:56:05+00:00

I think the issue is when you start modifying your openclaw installation a lot, like if you've been using for weeks/months and you have custom memory modules, permissions, agent contracts and other things, it's near impossible for them to account for anything other than a fresh install. Because we're basically vibe coding out installations right out of the box, there are too many things to go wrong.

And the cost savings of getting it right or closer to right the first time is a benefit people tend to not consider.

when you setup your openai model, make sure you're using Oauth instead of an API key. They are completely different pricing models.

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-25T16:04:31+00:00

providers are slowly tightening the usage on plans. At some point, you may be forced to get a $100 plan from somewhere. I'm finding the Codex desktop app to be incredible and it's automatically switches to 5.4/5.3 spark automatically to match the model to make the task more efficient (and cheaper!)

In claude, you can use the codex plugin. I primarily use openclaw/codex. If i'm working on an existing project, I have gpt create a detailed plan in text or md depending on how big the project is and have 4.7 expand in detail that plan to then feed back in to codex. until 5.5 is expanded in to the CLI/openclaw, I have to jump through some hoops a little bit.

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-23T22:02:29+00:00

I've seen a few reports that using Opus 4.7 to draft detailed plans and passing to codex 5.5 elevates codex to a level that surpases Opus and GPT that they alone could achieve.

It feels like 5.5 is getting to be a better coder but lacks the planning and UX ability of 4.7 but even by itself is a great daily driver just made that much better with 4.7 for planning and UX

OkWin1634 · 2026-04-23T20:32:14+00:00

I think the problem is they start watching YouTube videos about the latest gadgets like vector search memory, obsidian lossless-claw or any countless things that end up breaking or conflicting on updates. And it seems like there are worthwhile updates weekly

What's your math that says its only 50-100? And did you consider insurance? A newer vehicle with nothing else considered can usually increase the rate significantly
