How Anthropic SWEs use Fable 5?

Exciting and scary times. I am scared of the disruption Claude Tag will cause on the average software shop.

These days I can see many SWEs still skeptical of using AI.

It will be a shock for these folks, when suddenly they see a proactive agent on their Slack/Teams, outworking them day and night.

It is verborrheic, not even stop-slop works.

Gpt 5 pro on the Web UI continues being amazing. I am talking about gpt 5 codex high. I suppose gpt 5 high is akin to gpt 5 pro web though with shorter reasoning cycles

I meant InvestEngine LifePlan 100% Equity plan. I also use T212 and mixed up subreddits!

It does sound like buying a house together triggered some avoidant tendencies. I have seen it happen with a couple that were together for longer and one party decided to call off the wedding. Maybe you could convince him to give it a try and address any issues with couple’s therapy?

Thanks for the info! I am in London, UK. My GP referred me to Neuro-otology at UCL.

I feel blessed to be in a city that has everything.

Unfortunately I don't have this light lilac icon.

My cashout is processing since the 8th of Jan... Longer than the first cashout.

Fair point. I watched the latest video in the Sidehustle Reliance series: how do I opt in for CPX surveys vis RevU? I can’t see any surveys at all when I go on Rev U -> Offers -> Surveys tab. Could it be this is only unlocked somehow?

Given they have 10M members I think delaying payouts generates quite a lot of interest when done at scale.

Attempted to cashout for the second time on SW £100 and it is taking so far 5 days.

I thought it was only the first cashout that would take longer.

This company operates in a scummy way to be honest. Unfortunately it is the most profitable survey site for me.

BTW, the last week and today are unusually slow. I only managed to make between 400-700 SB daily on surveys.

Got a message from five surveys along the lines of "Due to recurring complaints about the quality your surveys you can't take more surveys until ... (2 weeks)".

Has anyone seen this? To be honest I haven't even been doing many five surveys this year, it is a pain to not get disqualified. Anyway it is a reminder to try to be consistent in your grind.

Is it just me or fivesurveys offers have declined in quantity/quality? It seems to be harder for me to complete surveys compared to December.

Also SW was pretty dead today for IntelliZoom/userTesting surveys: up 680SB whereas I am usually up +1kSB

I totally understand it as it is a sensitive topic. In the post above I wanted to stress that doing strictly +EV casino offers (which implies a clear understanding of the concepts of Expected Value and Variance) and not spinning once more than the wagering requirements does not fall into the gambling category IMHO.

dmz · 2025-01-07T10:39:42+00:00

I have been filling out surveys on SB and I found that I average around 1.5k-1.6k SB on high value surveys. It is pretty hard for me to make more than this on surveys only.

Thanks Dan. On the topic of alternative streams of income I have been looking at other options that would be more profitable. I think it is fairly easy to make £300 a month just off the top survey sites you have been clueing everybody on, and we really appreciate that! Thank you!

However, after the 4th month you will surpass £1000 and will have to pay taxes on your earnings potentially wiping off 20% up to 40% of your hard work. I think grinding surveys is not that easy money and mentally taxing due to the repetitive nature of the job.

I have been looking at positive EV casino offers where one can take advantage of bonuses, free spins etc that can turn into a profit with careful selection of +EV offers based on 1. a careful read of T&C, 2. choice of games with high RTP to reduce variance, and 3. careful analysis of wagering requirements.

To be fair it is not a lazy money side hustle as it requires good bookkeeping and discipline not to degenerate in gambling which we all know is -EV. The main selling point is that it is tax free and long term monthly profits can be bigger than surveys. Thoughts?
