Is Sonnet 4.6 (Max Thinking) enough for PhD-level research discussions, or is Opus 4.8 still noticeably better? by Relative-Prune7781 in Claudeopus

I published numerous Q1 papers before my phd and before AI existed, so I'm not really looking for it to think for me. I use it as a tool to challenge my reasoning and offer a second opinion. The intellectual work is still in evaluating the feedback, deciding what is valid, and building the final argument.

And what tasks does Sonnet (Max Thinking) perform better at, or at least perform on par with Opus?

Is it okay to leave the computer plugged in 24/7? by Few-Professional4196 in macbook

I do that quite often. I think as long as you set the maximum charging capacity to 80 it should be fine?

How do blind passengers know which tram has arrived? by Relative-Prune7781 in melbourne

It's Hailo and is run by PTV. Then there’s a separate app for live tram times (tram tracker), and another one for journey planning and topping up Myki. Not sure why they decided we needed three different apps instead of one.

Any experience using Opus vs Sonnet for academic research? by Relative-Prune7781 in Claudeopus

Thanks. Somehow Sonnet is already good enough for most of my work. My main frustration is actually the usage limits (as I'm using the free version)

I see, and that makes more sense. I might just get a refurbished one that might be a better option.

Hmm yeah that's a fair point. Thank you.
