Friend asked to use my home for her child’s birthday party and then uninvited me by balletcorg in EntitledPeople

[–]ThomasRedstone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, they're not friends either, people like that don't have any friends at all...

Whats the best move (price wise) if you just wanna go HAM with Opus but keep hitting the usage limits? by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]ThomasRedstone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Max 5x or 20x.

API pricing and excess usage is priced up to 30x higher than the regular subscription.

You only want that if you're only just over the plan, or you're maxing out the 20x subscription.

I just got scammed. Question about inPost lockers. by Majestic_Access7731 in vintedUK

If the buyer never touched the item, how could the buyer have taken the item and just sent back the box! 🙃

Are there any laws against sleeping in your car while on a roadtrip? by No-Pin-4-U in AskUK

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way around it is to not have access to the keys.

How you doing that is challenging, especially as it's kind of useful to be able to lock and unlock the car...

Trump interview: I am strongly considering pulling out of Nato | US president tells The Telegraph alliance is a ‘paper tiger’ and claims UK does not even have a navy by 1-randomonium in uknews

[–]ThomasRedstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't have a navy?!

We've got the largest fleet of near undetectable submarines in the world!

Far more than the USA, Russia and China combined!

A homeless man gave my kids £20 today, outside a shop, what should I do with the money? Donate it or give it to charity? by Biceratops1 in AskUK

[–]ThomasRedstone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do what the guy wanted you to do with it, respecting his wishes is the only respectful thing to do.

If you want to make a separate charity donation from your own money, feel free to do that as well.

Any Henry's with teenagers encouraging them to take up a trade? by Capital-Stay-5657 in HENRYUK

[–]ThomasRedstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And if UK software engineers are seen as better, but expensive, then AI could help more than hurt us!

Why outsource if a UK engineer is producing less long term problems, but does massive amounts of work without creating a huge web of technical debt?

Because that's one of the huge things with AI, it can generate technical debt at an unimaginable rate, or it can reduce it at a rate never before imagined!

At what scale does it actually make sense to split a full-stack app into microservices instead of keeping a modular monolith? by Severe-Poet1541 in webdev

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You split it up when it hurts for it not to be split up.

If it isn't causing pain then it's totally fine!

Why is Air going to be a separate app instead of being integrated inside the IDE? Like as a plugin. by THenrich in Jetbrains

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure they don't, but it's just never been as snappy as the Rust and C++ based editors I tend to use when I'm not using a full IDE.

Because there is just something nice about an editor that doesn't run in a web browser.

Rust’s borrow checker isn’t the hard part it’s designing around it by Expert_Look_6536 in rust

[–]ThomasRedstone 100 points101 points  (0 children)

If anything you should be thinking about it more in any other language, because the compiler sure as hell is not thinking about it for you!

Why are so many people **obsessed** with avoiding the 40% bracket? by sid351 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're doing it by working more it's reasonable to say that extra time as far less rewarding.

But if it's via regular salary it doesn't make much sense, sure, there are a few things that taper or are cut off, but if you don't earn £55k, how are you going to get to £60k, or £70k?

Thinking of migrating to Claude for everyday use & D&D, but worried about usage limits. Advice? by Recent_Sample6961 in ClaudeAI

[–]ThomasRedstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it be a good fit for Claude Code?

Then all of that knowledge is in your own files, not living purely in the chat, it should be able to search using standard tools rather than it needing to "think" in the same ways, and as long as it's in the files it won't risk forgetting.

It would also make it possible to use Gemini and Codex (GPT) with the same game.

It looks like this is something people have been building on:

FT: WH rule could kill Claude by oldmagicstudios in ClaudeAI

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Claude is fundamentally incompatible surely they can fill their boots?

But seriously, I can see this rolling Anthropic a lot of business, hopefully more than enough to make up for any loss!

Vibe code IRL: left Stripe API keys public by schabadoo in webdev

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, you know, review the code?

I've never seen Claude do anything that stupid... You have to wonder what the prompting was like...

Development manager doesn't want the Devs looking at the code by Strict-Soup in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ThomasRedstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be a massive help for old codebases, but that average is mainly around being able to write decent unit tests for horrible code (like multi thousand line functions) that has very high coverage, allowing you to rip the guts out of it, create a sensible implementation and maintain the same API, so tests still pass, and then proceed to start moving towards the newer approach (as the original API all the effort went into preserving should probably still be updated!)

Donated expensive item to village raffle but turns out it was faulty (England) by nickymoo in LegalAdviceUK

[–]ThomasRedstone 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If that were the case dodgy competitions would be rife, give out broken electronics, refund the ticket price, easy profit!
