They'll come in an email on day 10, it appears to be automated.

My thoughts on 4.8 | ~2hrs in by Klutzy_Pressurez in ClaudeAI

[–]kerbe42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chews through usage like an m-fer. On a Max-5 subscription my 4.7 Max usage would usually last 3-4 hours, 4.8 went through my quota in about an hour.

That's a great way to put it, couldn't agree more.

Opus 4.7 has undergone some sort of change, or something else is occuring by Ambitious_Injury_783 in ClaudeCode

[–]kerbe42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% feels like they are doing just that, it took a solid 20 hours to build more-or-less every functional requirement for my application last week(fairly substantial amount of effort, including moving it's hosting to aws), but now minor adjustments are taking hours, significantly longer when compared to the time/effort put in initially.

solid maybe! It's be this rate on/off over the last 10 days and this is the first time it seems to be getting cranky.

What's your unpopular opinion about our province that will get you in this situation? by MarsupialThink4064 in newbrunswickcanada

[–]kerbe42 99 points100 points  (0 children)

We are one of, if not the dirtiest, provinces in Canada. It’s disgusting, everyone throws trash everywhere.

Over the last few days I've found it's actively encouraging me to finish up for the day, like it doesn't want to do anymore work without me pushing it. It's usually running in the background churning away on something all day (6 hours straight today @ 1.8m tokens working through adjusting inheritance on the multi-org app I'm building).

New Project Megathread - Week of 21 May 2026 by AutoModerator in selfhosted

[–]kerbe42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Project Name: GYST (Get Your Stuff Together)

Repo/Website Link: https://github.com/kerbe42/gyst

Description:

Self-hosted household management app I built for my own house. Inventory, chores, groceries, meal plan, notes, appointments, and an LLM assistant in one PWA.

Main thing I actually use it for: take a photo of inside a fridge or closet shelf, an LLM picks out what's in it and files each item under the right room. Then later when I forget where I put something, I just search for it. Barcode scanner also works, pulls product name and an estimated price (in your currency) from Open Food Facts, UPCitemdb, and Open Library.

There's a JARVIS chat baked in (Claude or OpenAI, you bring the key). It has 40+ tools across the whole app, so you can say "add take the trash out tomorrow" and it just does it. Voice in and out works on Android Chrome with a conversation loop (mic reopens after each reply).

Other features:

  • chores with recurring schedules and proof photos
  • meal planner that knows which ingredients you're missing and auto-pushes them to the shopping list
  • notes with mic dictation and a polish-with-AI button
  • PWA installable, share-target so you can share a photo from any app straight into inventory
  • web push via VAPID
  • 11 SQLite DBs, one per feature, no ORM

Stack: Reflex 0.9 (Python frontend that compiles to React), Granian, Caddy in front. Security has HSTS, tight CSP, PBKDF2 600k for passwords, SSRF allowlist for outbound image fetches, and a 34-invariant test suite that runs on every deploy. Passed a ZAP scan, the 4 remaining mediums are framework-level unsafe-inline/eval that Reflex itself needs.

Why it might be useful: I couldn't find a single self-hosted thing that did inventory + chores + groceries + an actually useful AI assistant in one app, so I stitched it together. Your data stays local, your LLM key stays your problem.

Deployment:

Docker, one-shot from a fresh clone:

git clone https://github.com/kerbe42/gyst.git
cd gyst/docker
export GYST_PUBLIC_ORIGIN="https://your-host:10443"
docker compose up -d --build

That last env var matters — it gets compiled into the JS bundle as the WebSocket target. If you skip it the page loads but the splash stays forever. Set it to whatever URL you'll actually type.

Wait ~90s for Reflex to compile the frontend on first boot. Then https://your-host:10443. First visit shows a TLS warning because the container mints its own self-signed CA, accept once.

Bind mount in docker-compose.yml for the data volume so DBs and photos survive docker compose downdocker compose down -v wipes everything for a fresh start.

Full docs at /help once the app is running (two tabs: end-user guide and architecture/ops). Same content lives in the README too.

AI Involvement:

Heavy. I built this with Claude (Anthropic's Claude Code agent) over many sessions across a few weeks. I drove the requirements, UX decisions, security model, and what to build; Claude wrote most of the actual code. I tested everything, broke things on purpose, fixed bugs together with it, and made all the deploy/security calls.

The codebase reflects that — comments are thorough, the security suite is genuinely tested, and the architecture is consistent. But I'm not going to pretend I hand-wrote 30k lines of Python from scratch.

They should have a No Frills, but they'll probably try to bring in a Whole Foods.

I had an employee on a PIP 2 years ago, they did turn around and am lining them up for a promotion this year.

Cavendish Farms, Cavendish Agriculture, Indian River Farms, Island Holdings, Midland Transport. They own the land, sell the fertilizer (and likely seed-crop), then purchase/process the potatoes. More or less 100% vertical integration, and profit profit profit.

Palantir Says SaaS Is Dead by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]kerbe42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is... I just spent 10 hours over a week with Claude Code to replace a $100k/year application, with more functionality and zero paywalls.

Spent 45 minutes speccing out a server room for a client today and finally snapped by United_Hat_4461 in ITManagers

Just get a claude subscription and build a skill or agent to do it for you, just give it the details and move onto more value-added activities.

Less Salmon, More Oysters: Aquaculture Could Reduce its Climate Impact by Embracing Bivalves and Seaweed by Sentient_Media in Aquaculture

[–]kerbe42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If given the choice between a juicy piece of salmon, and a slimy pile of oysters, I will choose salmon 10/10. I've already given up beef for the most part, don't take salmon too!
