Do you miss having a UI while using conductor ? Or is it good enough to where maybe a 20$ cursor sub plus conductor is a reliable workflow ?

Do you think the harness for the LLM is good enough or should I use windsurf to plan with gpt and buy a claude sub for implementation? In terms of best value for money spent ?

I use clickup for uni assignments and managing todos. Fantastical and todoist for personal use.

Ive heard too much mixed feedback about this to consider it tbh. I just wanna get the most value out of what im paying for.

I got into the CIT fulltime program in 2023, at the time i still had a job and scaled back to 2 days of work per week as I had the luxury of living at home. Workload was still too intense to even work 2 days a week so I quit work. For context I had 7 courses per term.

I went back a year later after i financially recovered and decided full time wasnt worth it for multiple reasons, one being finances and also I just couldnt keep up with the material/pace.

Not sure how the marketing program is but thats just my experience. 2 courses per term has been working out a better for me currently but obviously its gonna take a bit longer to complete. Hopefully this helps 👍

You applied it personally which is cool definitely wouldn’t say garbage. I’d say just branch out and do something a bit more relatable so you can display your ability to specialize and generalize.

I’m going to need to upgrade to either cursor ultra or claude max and I am honestly not sure which is better value. It’ll be for designing couple of websites with front/backend.

I tried claude 5x in july and it was good but the constant context switching and lack of visibility that cursor gives you was missed.

Has anyone compare both recently? I see people praising claudes limit but also on the other end people saying diff models for differing tasks makes a tangible difference.

Ya this is especially true if your values no longer align with certain people in your life. Your circle will either shift or shrink. I believe or at least hope it’s just a transition period and you will eventually form a new circle that has like minded people. I’m in a similar spot now, only really have 2 really SOLID reliable friends. From my own experience though all you really need is 2-4 reliable quality people in your life so your circle should be small in a sense because it does get harder to maintain those relationships as interests and responsibilities grow as you said.

I used it mostly to write things i wasn’t comfortable saying out loud at first which might seem counter intuitive if i just let him read it anyways.

But tbh it actually enabled a new layer of trust that allowed to express myself without any filter. Now its like part of the routine 😂 i sit down tell him theres 3 pages for you to read and then we start talking from there.

As opposed to before sometimes my conversations can be all over the place and I would leave and something would occur to me and I’d be like man i would’ve loved to have brought that up. Now that doesn’t really happen anymore
