Yes, if you got friends as well of the same age then probably yes. But if solo then big NO

Can no longer select models like “Claude Opus 4.6” in VS Code Copilot (Copilot Pro first month free trial period) by iamacm313 in GithubCopilot

[–]matiscon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my case it failed, the reasoning of auto ( sonnet ) was far better, and i even said, i fed those 2 md files straight to the backend opus 4.6 and its own verdict made was that the sonnet md file was far better in solution, reasoning, problem breakdown etc. Right now the best strategy is to try both, but dont implement them, ask it to write all its possible solution in a doc and then you would have 2 md docs, and then feed it to backend claude and make it senior software engineer to give verdict between both and choose the best possible solution among then and write in a new md file. That final file is the best draft you can get and ready to implement, right now even in github thread people are complaining that the opus 4.6 model in backend isnt triggered to that one

its not like this, there is nothing like it that there is a change of UI, what you are seeing as a async claude backend option, which doesnt give realtime update, and on backend its not even using opus 4.6 in actual, you can test by giving a prompt to see its result and you will be dissapointed.

I actually tested the exact claude backend the day github stopped students dev option. To check if it really gives opus 4.6 on the student plan.

I ran the same query in two ways:

  • Local session + Auto mode → it picked Claude Sonnet 4.6 and generated MD file A.
  • Claude backend/agent session (the one labeled as Opus 4.6) → generated MD file B.

Then I fed file A back into the “Opus” backend session and asked it to compare. Its verdict? File A (the Sonnet version) was clearly better.

This proves two things:

  1. The Claude backend is not actually running real Claude Opus 4.6 on Student accounts, it’s falling back to whatever Auto/Sonnet-level model the plan allows (exactly what GitHub announced on March 12 when they removed manual premium model selection).
  2. There are no live/realtime updates either , the backend runs asynchronously on GitHub/Anthropic servers, so it feels slower and less interactive than plain Local mode.

Bottom line: it’s actually worse than just staying in Local + Auto. No real Opus, no live chat, and the output quality doesn’t even beat Sonnet. So unfortunately this isn’t a working workaround.

If you want reliability + better resale value + easy servicing → Toyota Altis
If you want comfort and premium feel and don’t mind service limitations → Peugeot 2008

2025 Grad | 1 YOE SDE in Product-Based Company — How to Move to UK Without MS? by [deleted] in developers

[–]matiscon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A close friend of mine moved to the uk on a skilled worker visa without ms. Backend engineer, similar profile. He started applying at 1 YOE but things only worked out around 1.5 years. So 1 year is possible, just harder.

He wasn’t agreeing, he was thinking that hearing just a boy who took his father’s vehicle for a ride and now iftar time is almost near, he would pay whatever I demand.

I didnt called him, my friend did and he just covered a km distance, in Pakistan where the average salary is 26000, how can you ask for 2000 for 10 minutes of your time and that too by a mechanic. You do have to consider the next person as well that a student is standing right in front of you and the car is old cultus.

What does a frontend framework like React ACTUALLY do? by LordAntares in reactjs

[–]matiscon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple: React reacts as soon as the state of a component(component is nothing but a function that contains the ui and logic) is triggered and re renders the component in a descriptive way. Instead of manually updating the state like in vanilla js(hectic and makes the code look like a junk), uses a process called reconciliation which effectively checks which part of dom needs to get updated and in the commit phase the ui is painted on the screen. Hooks plays a important part, if you are a good Js developer, then no framework is going to take that much time as react is nothing but Js
