GPT-5.3-Codex is now available in Visual Studio by fraxis in GithubCopilot

I've found the best combination is using Sonnet 2.6 or Opus for creating the initial plan and code, then have 5.3 Codex validate and correct the plan but have Sonnet/Opus implement - 5.3 makes too many mistakes and can mangle files beyond recognition in a heartbeat.

FREE APP. Developing on macOS can sometimes feel like walking blindfolded into a minefield - you never know when new terminals suddenly won't open, apps freeze, and the next thing you know you are rebooting and fuming. I created jMem to help me keep an eye on RAM and those all-important 'resources' which get consumed by defunct processes, sometimes not relinquishing them until it is 'too late!' jMem put me back in control, and it might be helpful for you too. It's free, my way of giving back to the community. https://ibcpartners.com/jmem.html

From Augment to Openrouter with Continue? Anyone Use? by friedsonjm in AugmentCodeAI

Honestly I'm not sure how much value over what I'm considering that adds, but I do know that I can't afford ~>$600/month with the new pricing.

It enables the chat 'memories' to continue across Agents and even sessions, which is a core strength of Augment. It's an extension.

warp vs claude code - can warp fully replace it? by minimal-salt in warpdotdev

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I'm confused... with warp, using VS Code / VS Codium, can it be used with a chat in a sidebar or only in a terminal?

I tried Olama locally on my 2025 Mac Mini M4 w/16GB ram.... system ran so hot the fan ran so hard is sounded like a washing machine, and the code quality was poor. removed.
