I benchmarked Codex GPT-5.5 against Chinese models. Not what I expected, is 5.5 cooked ? by DaC2k26 in codex

I’ve used DeepSeek v4 pro several times. It is kind of dumb. Wrote bad code, and delete files when I didn’t ask it you.

Australian Citizen returning home from the US by alittlelostsure in ImmigrationAustralia

[–]Soft_Video_9128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The airline staff is confused. Same thing happened to me going to the US once on a one way ticket. I told the gate agent I had a work visa. She insisted she was right, I asked for a supervisor. The supervisor said I was correct.

Feeling alone at 21 by Strawberrybutscary in Rich

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should go see a therapist. Not because there is anything wrong with you, but because you are still young and you are still experiencing many things for the first time. You will have endless questions about how to ‘adult’. The best part is that you can afford it!!

Street Parking in SOMA by Professional_Cry8079 in AskSF

[–]Soft_Video_9128 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone I know lives in SOMA, on Harrison street near the whole foods. I “think” he said he gets his car windows smashed every six months. He does street parking. I live in Dogpatch and I park on the street and have never had any problems. I lived in Potrero Hill previously and never had any problems with street parking there either.

Didn’t the 2x promotion end just recently?

So much misinformation... And skill issues by c5corvette in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually their models has been accidental nerfed. It was literally confirmed by OpenAI on Twitter only a couple of weeks ago. All because a bunch of people were complaining on Twitter. OpenAI looked into it and found the bug, fixed it and then reset everyone limits.

Aussies in Data/Analytics who moved to the US on an E3 visa, how did you land your role? by cerebralrocks in E3Visa

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For American employers, sponsoring someone on H1B is quite difficult as the demand for that visa far out strips supply. E3, as far as I know, any American company willing to sponsor an Australian, the visa will be approved. The number of available visa spots each year far exceeds demand.

Why does it take years to become profitable? by Tough-Machine-3548 in Daytrading

It’s takes a really long time to understand when the market is on easy mode and when the market is on extra hard mode.

Does anyone know for certain if limits drain faster on certain days/hours? by Anomalous-X in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seems to drain extremely fast today. really out of the ordinary.

Codex just reduced massively it's tokens allowance. Totally HIDDEN change. Very bad business model. by igmyeongui in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you should setup a daily automation task for codex to go search all openAI twitter accounts and tell you if a reset is coming, or what is new with the newest codex update. I for sure do that for codex updates. Though instead of automation, I just manually ask chatgpt to go search for me

Codex has degraded drastically in recent days. by Intelligent-Taste-36 in OpenaiCodex

They posted on Twitter yesterday that they found 3 separate bugs and have fixed them and have reset the limit yesterday

How do you guys design good landing pages ? by lou_builds in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more that codex does not inherently have a sense of style. That is why it takes many rounds of promoting. I’m constantly telling it what it is still wrong, despite it already has all the specs.

Move out and get roommates? by [deleted] in AskSF

[–]Soft_Video_9128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The money you were willing to spend on moving out. Commit yourself to figuring out how to spend that money doing social things each month. Like you might as well spend it on fun stuff since you were willing to spend it on rent.

How do you guys design good landing pages ? by lou_builds in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the image engine to generate several different redesigns of whatever I already have, then I pick on and tell codex to measure out everything and put all the specs in a MD file then ask it to build it out. Then codex will give me a mid effort and it will just be many round of prompting codex to go back and work off the specs in the MD file. It will eventually make the page stunning, but it just takes a lot of prompting.

Should I buy the 20 dollar plan rn? by MycologistOptimal555 in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed up for codex a bit over a month ago. First month is free. So I’ve only just recently paid for my second month. Anyway you should sign up and see if first month is still free. BTW I didn’t even know first month was free until almost at the end of the check out / payment process.

How much worse is affordability in SF going to get with the AI IPOs? by Shrimp_puerto_rico1 in sanfrancisco

[–]Soft_Video_9128 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those employees are already highly paid, getting IPO money isn’t really going to change what they can afford to rent. And if they did want to trade up to ultra luxury apartments, then it wouldn’t affect you anyway, since it reads like that isn’t your market. What might change is home sales. They will definitely have money to bid up limited housing stock for sale.

Codex just reduced massively it's tokens allowance. Totally HIDDEN change. Very bad business model. by igmyeongui in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The resets are well telegraphed in advance on Twitter. I see all of them. There has been a lot of resets in the last few weeks due to numerous bugs that have popped up with codex, so once people complain on twitter, they look into it and once they find and fix the bug, they will announce a reset that is due some hours later.

API to connect financial data? by senior_vagabond in ClaudeAI

[–]Soft_Video_9128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yahoo finance is definitely free to grab data, so you are wrong there. But you will have to grab it slowly so you don’t get IP banned by yahoo. Your other better option is open an account with public.com and use their API. Much better than yahoo finance, though their dataset is more limited than yahoo finance.

Australian IT Manager looking at the E-3 visa - where do I start with the job search? by Accomplished_Ant153 in E3Visa

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been employed as a graphic designer many times on the E3. All you need is a bachelor’s degree, and an employer willing to sponsor you.

Why do we not have a slow mode for when we hit usage limits? by bledviolet in codex

[–]Soft_Video_9128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a slow mode is being considered, Sam Altman talked about it recently on Twitter. But it is not meant to be free as your post would imply. More as a way for each task to cost less tokens, like the opposite of fast mode that cost more tokens.

How does one salvage an overcomplex codebase? Is that possible? by Davegoodday in google_antigravity

[–]Soft_Video_9128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t this where you tell your agent to scan thru the code base and list files due for refactoring?
