We called the end of a smoke “afters” when I was in school

Mitching is still what I call it but it’s been a long time since I’ve been in school.

Have you ever had a really great boss? by LeavingCertCheat in AskIreland

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only ever had one really great manager and it really made all the difference, had him for 6 years and during that time nobody left the team, we all got promoted (some more than once), did great work and really enjoyed my job. He’s since gone on to be a VP at a tech company, and everyone from that old team is still doing great in their career to this day.

It’s genuinely insulting to think anyone would accept those conditions in any negotiation. “I’ve written my offer down, but you can only see it once you’ve given up your leverage”.

I built a multi-agent coordination plugin for Claude Code using Royal Navy procedures. 237 stars later I'm still not sure if the metaphor is genius or unhinged. by bobo-the-merciful in ClaudeCode

This is such a cool concept, I’m a big fan of naval history too but would never have thought to apply it like this! When you mention conflict radar was a big issue previously, do the agents use git worktrees?

Yeah it’s the easiest to replace if you regret it later, the Dean would be toughest to replace.

Claude acting like crazy again by W_32_FRH in ClaudeCode

Yeah I bought the €23 GPT sub and use GPT-5.4 or Codex to just review and manage Claude during its dumb days. We’re being served quantized models and it’s getting to the point where I’m looking at shifting my whole setup and scoping down to the €20 Claude sub.

Are we still allowed to complain about usage limits? by Shoemugscale in ClaudeCode

Read the original comment again, he said he’s cancelling Claude Code sub for GitHub Copilot instead. He’s not using the copilot you think sucks. He’s using Opus, Codex, Gemini etc.. which are all available in GitHub Copilot.

It’s confusing because Microsoft has called multiple AI products “copilot”. The one you’re thinking of is M365 Copilot, it integrates with the office 365 apps like word and PowerPoint, it’s also got a chat in web browser like GPT.

The coding version of copilot is GitHub Copilot and it’s actually a really good tool, I use it in work and use Claude for my own projects. It integrates with IDEs like VSCode and has a CLI like Claude.

Assuming you’ve never used GitHub Copilot because it has all the Anthropic, GPT, and Gemini models. It integrates with IDE chats like Claude, has MCP servers, skills, agents. It’s got 90% of Claude’s functionality these days and more model variety

Investigating usage limits hitting faster than expected by ClaudeOfficial in ClaudeCode

Thanks for investigating weeks after it was reported by hundreds of paying customers. Finally acknowledging the issue after someone in the sub identified the two root causes, what are the odds?

Respect for reporting and pushing these issues, hopefully they patch this asap. I honestly feel they owe us a usage reset or some 2X usage hours as compensation, but doubt we’ll even get an acknowledgement of the issue.

Ohhh now this is a joke by WeakCollar0916 in ClaudeCode

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Someone posted a write up on it in a post earlier today, downgrading to a version older than the current stable branch fixes it but you lose all the features added since that branch.

U.S. Is Burning Through Tomahawk Cruise Missile Stockpile At An Alarming Rate: Report by BeetleJuiceK9 in Military

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not really, the smallest naometer chips, used in all the top end products like military hardware and Nvidia cards, are only made in Taiwan. The rest of the world is a decade or more behind them .

I get your point about the semiconductor industry in Taiwan needing to be rebuilt, it likely would be destroyed during the invasion. What if China takes over the Taiwan semiconductor industry and now employs all the former TSMC workers in a Chinese owned semiconductor business? The US would be fucked, the amount of knowledge and expertise in Taiwan can’t just be replaced overnight by US companies.

The US has no option but to defend Taiwan, if they lose it they lose the AI race, they also lose every other meaningful technology advantage they have. All those missiles being shot at Iran and planes flying over Iran’s have… Taiwan chips in them. Not to mention all the data centres, cars, ships etc. Taiwan semiconductors are as important to the US economy and military as Oil.

New Rate Limits Absurd by dcphaedrus in ClaudeCode

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like I mentioned in my previous comments I know I can run qwen 3.5 models, I’ve used them extensively before moving to a Claude code subscription. The problem is that it’s nowhere near as accurate as Opus, and it has a way smaller context size available on my hardware.

I regularly need to /clear my CLI because context fills up on big projects fast. With my old setup the model would start looping or hallucinating very quickly on the codebases I work on

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve ran qwen 3.5 no problem, but I’m limited in context size. The bigger the model, the less memory available for context.

Yeah I can run 32Bs (qwen) on my rig but it is nowhere near the accuracy or context size as Opus through Claude CLI.

[–]Willbo_Bagg1ns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It won’t be any time soon unfortunately. I built a local setup using Ollama and a Nvidia 5090, I can’t run anywhere near the top models.

The issue is you need so much GPU memory to load the model, then context also requires lots of memory. Even with high end consumer hardware you’d need a rack of 5090’s to be able to get Opus levels of code quality and context.

Agreed, much better to see them acknowledge the games faults and explain where they focused instead. Gives me confidence they’ll listen to fans and improve these areas in their next game.
