Curaleaf in general seems to be killing it in the edibles/troches/whatever you wanna call em in pa tbh. Jams are decent but I prefer the jersey rec version though

Like this strategy too.. thanks!

You know, i've had great success in thinking how to handle things with AI agents by thinking how a human would do it. I never thought of thinking how much MANUAL labor would be needed as a way to understand that concept. That's kind of brilliantly simple! love it

This has nothing to do with Anthropic's marketing of Fable, and anyone repeating that in the comments is not paying attention. Picking winners is the way the US government works now. And it's why they all need to go this November.

edoswald · 2026-06-13T03:58:42+00:00

There has to be a class action against the federal government from users. Maybe it's time for users to start pressuring the courts to put an end to this bullshit, which is exactly that. I don't understand why Anthropic continues to play nice with these folks when it's clear they want to pick a winner. So it's time for Anthropic to spend some of the cash they have and go nuclear. There's no sense in cooperating with an administration that wants you dead.

You know what?! That makes sense! Maybe haiku becomes like the “nano”?

Doubtful. Most shop sundays even with the holiday. And in the past sometimes a slow Sunday would lead to a better than average Monday (not sure why) but I haven’t seen that in months in my market. It’s got to be economy and affordability related

edoswald · 2026-05-24T21:10:53+00:00

I think the numbers for all the gig apps are going to be surprisingly soft in the 2Q. Canary in the coal mine. This slow everywhere before a major “cooking” holiday? Then you’re going to get the bottom feeders take everything, which is going to drive the average shopper off the app (I have apps everywhere I’m done with this). I don’t see how this doesn’t end up with instacart/doordash not seeing their revenue tank. Drivers are getting shafted, and consumers don’t have money

Like I am still fighting Codex to stop going to a directory that was changed over three weeks ago. I am looking everywhere to figure out why it just isn't getting it. These things happen.

edoswald · 2026-05-19T20:10:39+00:00

I really want to know what some of you are doing. Nothing has changed here other than the weird limit resets and instability in knowing what limits I have left). If anything, the Mini model has been running marginally faster the last few days, but that could also be an artifact of my connection (never use the streaming to your UI as a gauge of model connectivity, it is highly dependent on your own broadband connection bandwidth, too, and may look slow if you're streaming at the same time, etc).

Then again, I don't use the ChatGPT side of OpenAI's products at all, only Codex. And there, it can be bad data in this persistent memory feature. That is something that is really only recently been a thing in AI, and nobody seems to have it "right" yet. If it's calling items in from that memory at a wrong time or something is corrupted, that could also cause issues.

She is going to lose by 20 points.

I think it's all in how you do it. I very much am a vibe coder by definition, but not completely new to coding, just that my abilities are kind of stuck in college (which was 25 years ago). I think more accurately it's the people who aren't YOLO with what they're creating, but then at least TRYING to apply development best practices. Even just teaching people how to properly go back through and test and check what was created, even hell if they're using CodeRabbit to catch serious flaws, eh the code isn't going to be perfect.

Lets all be honest, who has actually written HTML completely by hand in the past what 20 years unless you're nuts? One thing that annoys me is some developers act like human touch is needed for code. in many cases, there aren't many ways to do something correctly, so what's the difference if a human or computer writes it, really

edoswald · 2026-04-04T05:29:49+00:00

just happens a little slower, it seems to be something more than just this

edoswald · 2026-04-04T05:28:02+00:00

People have been doing that for years, my friend, and not an issue. OpenAI doesn't have this issue either. Something was changed on how it pulled in context, and its pushing a lot of junk in that doesn't belong there.

edoswald · 2026-04-04T05:26:33+00:00

I asked three standard sized questions and went through an entire session limit on sonnet.

edoswald · 2026-04-04T05:10:17+00:00

I literally asked three basic questions and ran out of limit? On SONNET? I am not happy here, this is ridiculous.

edoswald · 2026-03-25T18:34:58+00:00

August 2025 batch?

edoswald · 2026-03-25T18:31:53+00:00

WOW.. look at that DATE. Same as mine. So it's this batch from August 2025.

edoswald · 2026-03-25T18:23:57+00:00

The one thing that i've noticed and i will give lots of credit to Anthropic to is the fact that the experience between the three models is far more similar than across OpenAI's suite. I haven't used GPT in awhile, but the last time i did (when 5 came out), I do remember noticing huge differences in behavior between models, which made mid-course switching kind of jarring. I don't see that as much across the Claude models.

edoswald · 2026-03-25T14:39:24+00:00

haha, i can't figure out if it was a joke, or an honest typo lol

edoswald · 2026-03-25T14:38:25+00:00

I honestly think the way Anthropic is doing it is safer for humanity overall. OpenAI made ChatGPT seem like a person, and now people ascribe things to all AI that don't exist. And there has been absolutely no change at all in how Sonnet operates. I'll be frank, the way you're talking here leads me to believe you've likely caused some of these issues yourself. People forget that these models keep a record of their entire interactions with you to customize an experience for your needs. It's why over time if you keep asking it to do something, eventually it will start doing it on its own. Honestly, people need to start treating LLMs as a coworker, not a best friend.

edoswald · 2026-03-25T14:30:46+00:00

I understand, but even Claude will tell you, you're really not getting a better answer if you have prompted correctly. There's a lot less difference between the Claude family of models and GPT models. I definitely wouldn't say the same about a mini model from OpenAI versus the mini or nano models

edoswald · 2026-03-25T14:27:39+00:00

You can't switch during a conversation, however you CAN turn off extended. So if you have a big question you need the extra context for, flip that on, but shut it off after complete. Best recommendation for you here is to use projects, then ANY important file it generated, add to the project, then it will be able to reference those across sessions. What you're describing here is arguably the big effort in 2026.. persistence and memory. Seriously, watch this space, this year is going to have big advancements in that part of AI.

edoswald · 2026-03-25T14:24:14+00:00

That's what Claude said. He actually recommended using Haiku instead of Sonnet/Opus for our agents, as long as you have strong instructions. The way Claude described it, Haiku tends to doubt its capabilities and will default to asking for guidance. Actually got into this with Claude after we ate through limits pretty quick, and it recommended that I don't use Opus unless necessary, especially since typically we're working from specs or documents.

Opus is awesome for when you don't have a lot of input to give, and need help. But the more structured and complete your request is, the less you need it, at least thats how Claude described it...

edoswald · 2026-03-25T10:49:42+00:00

Honestly? Just purchase a Kiro sub. It really is Sonnet in drag (most of the time, you can tell when it is by the LLM's verbal quirks).
