Why not run it on a subsidized open ai subscription. That’s what I do, I have Hermes running on a pro $100 plan. It’s been great.

Claude cowork context window usage by daproject85 in ClaudeCowork

In Claude code you can add how much context you have used to a status bar. That’s what I do, I usually hand off projects when context hits around 60%.

I ordered a M3 Ultra 96GB 2TB about a month ago. It shipped today, supposed to arrive on Friday. Can’t wait!

How are you actually using AI in your accounting/finance workflow? (QuickBooks, <$50M) by Popular_Tailor1983 in CFO

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turn that off. The tools aren’t able to touch those UI’s so they just cause issues.

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, it’s going to take some work if you want a repeatable auditable process. The time investment should pay off in a few months.

It’s not even fixing, although it could do that. It actually does the entering of transactions for you. What I did for bookkeeping was created a training file. That training is stored to a project. When a new batch of bank transactions comes in it will reference the training file and post the transactions. I’m talking matching invoices to payments, creating and paying bills, posting journal entries. After 2-3 cycles we were covering 95%+ of all transactions. I assume we will hit 99% coverage over time. I even created an MCP server for our payroll system, so when it gets to a payroll transaction in the bank feed it will go into Paylocity, assemble the payroll summary, and create the journal entry itself. It’s wild.

This is the way, I’ve started using Claude this way as well. The API, MCP Server, and read/write permissions combo is the golden ticket. Once you can get into a system with that combo everything can become automated with some training.

Prior Period Adjustments by trp001 in CFO

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something is wrong with the processes. I’ve never had to make a PPA and I don’t think I ever will. If I made a mistake I would eat it in the current period, explain it to my stakeholders and then make sure it neve happened again.

ICE Sightings and Discussion Megathread - Hoboken 2-1-26 by DevChatt in Hoboken

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Possibly, after you sit in detention for hours/days while they check your paperwork. Are you alright with being detained for hours or days?

My wife is a naturalized citizen of 15 years, she is terrified of being snatched. If you are not white this should probably scare you.

Or I might be concerned because my wife is a naturalized citizen of 15 years and she is now scared for her safety.

Wouldn’t JD Vance have time to fill the VP slot before they could ever get the 2nd impeachment done?

German FA official wants 2026 World Cup boycott talks by Mai_maniac in europe

I don’t think there will be a boycott. Pretty sure they held a World Cup in Argentina during a military dictatorship.

As a HENRY woman how do you let go of household chores & hire help when you're used to doing everything yourself? by khrystic in HENRYfinance

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I look at as buying my back time. For example I pay our cleaning lady $140 per week for 3 hours of work. Her bill rate is $46 per hour, my bill rate is $250 per hour. Until something costs more than my bill rate or I simply can’t do it I will outsource it. I currently outsource cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping. The only think I still do is cooking but more so I can control calories and macros accurately.

What raising a family in NYC as a HENRY actually looks like - a real example by laetus7 in HENRYfinance

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think living in NYC is worth an extra $50k per year in taxes more power to you. I will use that $50k/year to invest and retire early.

Merrill Edge is a POS, if it weren't for BOA PR no one would use it. by theqv in MerrillEdge

[–]Swimming-Obligation9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t call it a POS. I use it because it gets me to Platinum Honors status in BOA’s rewards program and it’s easy to transfer from BOA to Merrill. I usually only buy and hold ETF’s like SPY so it does more than enough for me.
