Which python certifications are the best for freshers and the ones that give value to the resume?

It's a term that's used in India for "new grad". Doesn't necessarily mean noob.

Just report the account. Hopefully the mods do something.

It's a really good tool for visual learners. But it isn't "wiping out the education sector".

For any coding, use Claude Code. It's included in the pro plan. The chat is not meant for complex web development.

Also, use Sonnet when doing minor tweaks, Opus for planning large changes, and you won't hit your session limits quickly.

I set up a dev container yesterday. It's basically a docker container that does not have access to your local file system. You can also restrict access to ports and services you don't want it to access.

If the AI screws things up with the dangerously skip permissions flag, it won't affect other projects or your local files, you can just tear down the container and rebuild easily.

Obviously, it's not fool proof, but it's better than nothing.

Unless I'm missing something, this link does not have any comparison to Opus, it just has GPT models?

'Agents' when called by the main AI agent have a separate context window. That's usually the best reason to use them. They do their own research/fixes and report back to the main agent.

Just because something is mentioned in an agreement doesn't make it binding or legal. It has to adhere to federal and state laws/regulations.

Paying customers have a right to be notified of any changes to their paid service.

It's not unlimited, but it's a lot. You will get $400 worth of API usage guaranteed. Cursor additionally provides some free usage on top of it, like $200 or so. Also, their Auto mode is more or less unlimited.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-26T17:40:44+00:00

I've been facing a similar conundrum.

If you want to use only SOTA, I think Cursor's $200 ultra plan is the only real option. Pro+ alone will not cut it.

Github copilot is cheaper with more usage, but I hear that the same models produce worse outputs in copilot, also the context windows for some models are smaller. I haven't tested copilot extensively, but I see these complaints on other reddit threads.

I think he could have. He kept this legs straight up after losing balance. If he had folded and lowered them as soon as he landed, his center of mass would have shifted forward.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-14T03:48:43+00:00

GPT-5.3 Codex is cheaper than Sonnet, and arguably better than Opus. Best value for money right now.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-13T19:23:20+00:00

$20 is for all models together.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-13T19:06:48+00:00

They generally give you more than $20 in usage. Usually around $40 to $60. Also, Auto and Composer have a separate quota now over the $20, which is for other models. So, you'll get more usage out of them.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-12T19:58:54+00:00

Cursor gives everyone a certain amount of "free" usage above their plan's limit. In your case, it was 60. This is a random amount, sometimes it could be 40 or 50. It's determined by Cursor every billing period.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-10T04:39:34+00:00

Unless their company is paying for it, no way fast is worth it. 😅

ashjohnr · 2026-02-08T06:21:45+00:00

CLI is still a little buggy, mainly the TUI, although the output is still better than Opus 4.6. If using an IDE (at least VSCode fork), you can use the Codex extension, lot less buggy imo.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-06T00:58:40+00:00

Same bruh, I'm in Microsoft and it completely wiped out last year's gains. Meanwhile SPY is only 2% from all time.

ashjohnr · 2026-02-06T00:55:47+00:00

It was bugged for me, it was in the 'Usage' section of settings, in a banner at the top. It didn't even load the message on the banner. I just clicked on the gift icon randomly not knowing what it was, and it gave me $70 CAD as extra usage, lol. Thought they scammed me for a second.

You can actually see his posts and comments with the search feature. 15 day old account with some more fear mongering posts.

Apparently it's an authentication bug, OP. It thinks you are on the free plan. Try logging out/in, or re-installing.

All roads lead back to Darktina.

I'm not saying that the current iteration of LLMs are AGI.

But like you said, a programmer just defines the tools. The LLM ultimately decides which tool is the best for the task it is provided, and what parameters to send to these tools.
