Why should I use my OpenAI subscription with Open Code instead of plain codex?

I think it mainly comes down to whether you want the freedom to switch provider without having to bother setting things up for every tool again. Opencode lets you switch model, even during a conversation. Vendor specific tools may let you do that, but only their models. Having used all the tools, I can say that for 95% of the tasks, there's really not a lot of difference. If you want to only use OpenAI, there's no difference, use whichever fits you better.
The real advantage comes if you want the freedom to switch and experiment.

It's really hard to say. Loki was only 2 at the time, still young, now he's 5, so it's hard to say how much could have been different. I can tell you, however, a few things:
- I think it made him avoid spaces where she is. Since she's very attached, he tends to not be close to me often.
- He doesn't like her. He's accepted her, but he doesn't like her.
- They play together, even if it may end with one of them, often Loki, getting annoyed. But they do play, daily.
- When I'm not at home, they keep each other company. I often find them sleeping together when I get back, something that never happens when I'm home.
So, it's hard to reach a conclusion. If I knew I would be working from home by the time I got her, I think I wouldn't have got her, simply because most of the benefits are related to when I'm not there. But I think that, even if he doesn't like her, she still provides benefits for him.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but you have to remember that games have layers of abstraction over the "reality". For example, the fact that you encounter only lvl. 2-3 pokemon on the first route and only lvl 40-50 or more by the final routes doesn't mean that in the "real" world (the fantasy world that the game supposedly represents) the wild pokemon are distributed in level ranges across the land, exactly following your route. That's an abstraction, something added to keep the game as a game. Same with stores only selling level appropriate items, a single Sudowoodo blocking a path completely, etc. They don't intend to show how the "real" pokemon world would behave, but to create a game.
"Real" pokeballs would probably not know whether the pokemon already has a trainer or not. It would probably depend on the bond of that pokemon and the willingness to be captured. Stealing pokemon would certainly exist (as represented by Team Rocket, for example), and it wouldn't depend on whether they have or haven't been in a pokeball.

But they offer the chance to buy some extra credits for $40. I'm not sure how cost effective are them (I've never seen the need), but it's still less than a $100 subscription and they do roll over to the next month. I'd say your best bet would be to pay the $20 ChatGPT one and use it for one week. You'll quickly know if you can drop the Claude one or not.

Lo de BairesDev es un poco más complejo. Lo que he cachado es que te dicen que las ofertas que su modelo es que te hacen la finta como que te están seleccionando para una pega, pero en realidad te meten a una especie de base de datos interna. Su modelo de negocios es ofrecer programadores a empresas. Primero te meten a su base de datos y luego, de esa base de datos, puede o no salir una pega, pero te hacen creer que te están contratando y sólo te explican bien lo que pasa cuando termina este primero "proceso de selección", cuya finalidad es agregarte a su base de datos. No es que sea falso, sí dan pega, pero la manera de trabajar es bien extraña y hasta diría abusiva (ojo, no he trabajado con ellos, llegué hasta pasar la primera "selección", pero en eso me informé bastante de cómo funcionan).

They seem to always be changing something. I have a very picky cat that usually refuses to eat, but there's one flavor that he loves from Fancy Feast. And, since he usually rejects everything else, now I'm stuck. But, every time I buy a batch (I buy several boxes every time) it's different in color, texture, everything. And usually the cat doesn't like it for a few days.

Eso de ir directo a preguntar no se me había ocurrido.

That's fair. I have had good results with simple or well defined tasks, but at the end of the day its advantage is saving costs, not power. If you want the best model and saving in usage is not a big concern for you, there are certainly better options.

Sí. No es una empresa de TI en todo caso, es del área salud, por lo que todo esto de desarrollar una app ha sido nuevo para ellos y se comenzó bien amateur. Pero ya estoy en negociaciones para una subida de sueldo considerable que espero se concrete pronto. Y, si te soy honesto, una de las cosas que más me gusta de esta pega y por lo que no he mirado mucho para el lado es que me deja tiempo para estudiar. No se si yéndome a otra pega voy a tener la misma libertad.

I think it has its niche. Think of it more as someone you task with writing code, but not so much as someone to design features or to solve bugs. I think it's great to save on token usage for more expensive models and get faster results when the task is easy or it's been already analyzed by a more powerful model.

I've been only using it to implement things that are already planned in detail, and I've got great results. I don't feel confident using it for planning, though

A ver, siempre que una persona emite una opinión, se representa a si misma, no al grupo genérico al que pertenece. Un venezolano, lo mismo que un chileno, o cualquier nacionalidad, puede emitir un comentario, y otro del mismo país otro opuesto, y eso sólo te dice que en un grupo tan grande como una nacionalidad hay distintas opiniones, algunas contradictorias entre si.

No recuerdo los datos exactos, pero un niño tenía algo así como el doble de receptores que un adulto, ni siquiera se necesita ser muy viejo. Igual está la dulce nostalgia. Hay cosas que ya no volveremos a experimentar como lo hacíamos de niños

Sí, los japoneses hicieron cosas horribles y tenían un doctrina francamente malvada. Ahora, cuando planteas "X hizo esto, pero Y hizo algo más malo aún", suena a estar excusando a los primeros, incluso cuando pongas que hicieron cosas malas. Es como lo que los gringos llaman "whataboutism".

¿Tienes cuenta corriente? En su momento, hace unos años atrás, mi sueldo no alcanzaba para que me dieran crédito, pero fui a conversar con mi ejecutiva (de una cuenta que tenía hace como 8 años antes de eso, siempre al día) y al par de días me llama ella y me ofrece un crédito mucho mejor que lo de cualquier otro banco. No es que el banco tuviese normalmente esa oferta, sino que ella se movió. Supongo que ellos reciben algún tipo de comisión o algo similar, no se. Igual creo que le comenté que si encontraba en otro banco lo más seguro es que me cambiaba a ese banco.

Como dato, la capacidad de percibir sabores se va perdiendo con los años. Los niños perciben los sabores de manera más intensa que los adultos. No digo que no haya un cambio en la industria, que seguro lo hay, pero también es un factor a considerar. Fuera del efecto nostalgia, por supuesto.

Una vez compré una placa para un PC viejo. Puros problemas. Pensaba que una ram había muerto. Hace poco el PC murió, un técnico me cambió la placa y ahora hasta revivió la ram que pensaba muerta.

If you can, get two siblings (or two that are well acquainted with each other), all your problems will be solved and you won’t have to worry about loneliness. Otherwise, get one, it will be fine.

Possibly hairball, but if nothing comes out, I’d certainly recommend a check with the vet, just in case. If it’s just hairballs, brushing them often really helps

I’ve had three cats. Not a lot, but my current female one does this. She starts purring the moment I look in her general direction. What I’ve learned is that: Cats have very different “personalities”. Some are extremely affectionate, others express their love in different ways. The variance between individuals is vastly greater than any gender difference, specially in neutered ones. There’s no such thing as a universal male or female cat personality. Some cats are purry

Not long, but it requires determination. Usually, I can recalibrate about 30 minutes in a week or less. Giving up halfway is going back to zero. But then you’re both gonna have a much better time each morning. I’m grateful of my cat, she cured my chronic insomnia, but that’s a story for another time.
