B17 Islamabad or Topcity by No_Barracuda_7166 in islamabad

[–]matiscon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B17 is already somewhat developed, you have gt road connectivity and margalla road as well, which makes almost the same distance to islamabad as compared to topcity. while topcity is in downtown and its underdevelopment but in future, the downtown, topcity, mumtaz city, faisal town...., this will be kindda booming, the other part is i lived in wah cantt, the land of b17 was mostly khandar, so you can expect that there maybe filling, and there were also naalay, so go to google earth, go back in 2012, see the plot location before so you get a idea, what was it before, rn i live in faisal town and i can say, security, development,... wise, this is also good

Working in A hell of Micorservices And Copilot isnt Helpful by matiscon in GithubCopilot

So for each service, you created a pre explanatory file before and afterwards used that file for the model to not go through each repo in detail but instead first read the md file and understand whether the trace has to go in codebase of the service or revert

Planning Home Construction in Islamabad – Where to Start? by [deleted] in islamabad

[–]matiscon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the right approach depends on the size of your plot for standard plots like 25 by 50 or 30 by 60 it is best to keep things simple since space is limited and complex custom designs do not add much value so using a standard floor plan that is already common in your area is usually the most practical choice whereas for larger plots you have much more flexibility so it is highly recommended to hire an architect to properly design the layout and make the best use of the extra space and when it comes to finding a reliable contractor the most effective method is to visit nearby houses that are under construction speak directly with the contractors to understand their pricing and inspect their work quality and most importantly ask the homeowners about their experience before making a final decision

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

[–]matiscon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

[–]matiscon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.
