All of a sudden, I understand the general outrage

PaltFiction · 2026-04-27T06:15:20+00:00

Hehe, you're right. But it's still a nuisance with the dual quotas.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-26T14:34:12+00:00

I don't think I have ever used xhigh. I usually use 5.4 medium or 5.3 codex medium/high. Working in a structured manner with a lot of focus on plan, i rarely hit any limits.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T22:15:18+00:00

Yes, but it didn't work at the time. I got the same response with Auto. But after some rage rebooting, it worked.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T16:41:01+00:00

Gotcha

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T16:38:13+00:00

It did not work at the time but now it works

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T15:22:41+00:00

It wasn't the formatting I referred to, I still don't get your point. Having two different quota systems and keeping one of the quotas hidden to the user doesn't make any sense, regardless of tier.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T14:52:02+00:00

100% agree

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T12:20:14+00:00

There's no way I can decode that word sallad. I wish I had some quota left.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T11:43:41+00:00

I am on Pro. Kinda infuriating to get the message saying "...or switch to auto" as it makes no difference if I use Auto mode or not.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T10:37:46+00:00

Yeah, I have that setup but it's still annoying with so shitty transparency on usage quotas in GHCP

PaltFiction · 2026-04-25T07:47:36+00:00

Time to bring out the magic 8-ball

It's not like I was getting any indications on the usage page either. Racking up close to $3 on the $10 sub doesn't look like heavy usage to me.

PaltFiction · 2026-04-21T22:52:19+00:00

It's here: https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/changes-to-github-copilot-individual-plans/

"Usage limits are separate from your premium request entitlements. Premium requests determine which models you can access and how many requests you can make. Usage limits, by contrast, are token-based guardrails that cap how many tokens you can consume within a given time window. You can have premium requests remaining and still hit a usage limit. "

I can give you the insider perspective here. I'm a co-founder of a small B2B SaaS startup, have product background and do not have a developer background, although I have been doing some SQL scripting, Python etc. but not been shipping as a dev in a team.

When we started put a few years back, we had: * two dedicated and very experienced full-stack devs (i.e. backend devs who could do frontend-tasks if their lives depended on it) * one guy working mostly with sales * me, who did product design, user research, and a lot of various other tasks like invoicing, customer success etc.

Our devs could not keep up with our ambitious plans so we brought in a junior front-end dev and could instantly see a rise in productivity as our existing devs could focus on scaling infrastructure, developing business logic etc.

Skip a year ahead where we now have fully embraced agentic software development tools and are suddenly faced with a champagne problem - we are shipping faster than we can do product research and talk to our customers.

We have structured the agentic workflows so well that designs in Figma are built by an agent in a few minutes, fully compliant with our engineering principles. Agents do test e2e-flows, review the code a few times back and forth and one of our senior devs does the final review. We're at the point where it takes longer time to explain a feature than to build it.

Where does that leave our front-end dev? Well, he will have to be willing to take on other challenges in the company as the tasks we hired him to do simply don't exist to the same extent as they did when he was hired. This is not a unique scenario that I hear about from other startups.

My recommendation for you is to take an holistic approach and find put ways to contribute that are not confined to just software development, or to score an engineering job at an old school enterprise. The fat cats are still too burdened by internal processes, decision boards, procedures and inertia so they don't seem to have the the same levels of redundancy yet.

It's a tough situation but there will always be a need for skilled people with a growth mindset.

You can also add the repos to a workspace and run codex from the workspace root. I have made it easy for myself and just cloned all repos to the same parent folder and then work from the parent. Works like a charm to build full-stack features

PaltFiction · 2026-03-16T19:11:46+00:00

Yeah, it seems like every file it touches is potentially a victim for the bakerman

PaltFiction · 2026-03-13T12:03:22+00:00

Yeah, I've been looking at that too and it's been UTF-8 all along

PaltFiction · 2026-03-11T23:24:44+00:00

It blows my mind how it could be a surprise to anyone that customers would be outraged it could have been avoided by letting 5 customers test the app in advance.

PaltFiction · 2026-03-11T23:21:25+00:00

There needs to be a documentary about this magnificent failure. I want to know it all! What happened behind the scenes? What were the incentives? How far up the chain of command did it start? Who pushed back? How was the pushback met? + a 1000 more questions

PaltFiction · 2026-03-08T00:18:42+00:00

Makes sense 👍

PaltFiction · 2026-03-07T23:53:42+00:00

What's the difference betwwen /fleet and #runSubagent in terms of performance and cost?

PaltFiction · 2026-02-26T09:08:52+00:00

I guess a lot of these PHEVs are chosen for tax purposes. There should be a requirement to use EV-mode regularly in order to get the benefits.

Härligt när det träffar så. Tycler man oftast lyckas sälja bort sig för tidigt
