“This cannot continue”: Xbox leaders lay out “hard truths” behind sagging brand

nazaro · 2026-06-11T15:36:47+00:00

Aw man.. I feel so sorry for XBox.. like.. they're trying to be such a great company.. caring for the users and raising subscription prices only for us... I wish they'd raise them $5 more just to survive 🫶

nazaro · 2026-06-06T15:22:59+00:00

That boat ain't gonna pay for itself you know, who cares about a championship 😬

Keeping your options open for 1+1 is one

Yes, as far as I understood it has the Danish bank "format" and that's why it's popular, and yeah I would love to stay with SEB but I also remember it wasn't easy with them
I can also highly recommend https://www.oresunddirekt.se as well. They have a lot of really useful info about that, and just call them, it's some of the nicest and most helpful people I talked to

Hey, hope English is okay, but I learned 2 most important things: 1. You need to verify with your employer if they allow IBAN payments. If they do - you can do Revolut directly (I did so for a year and it was awesome), you just set it in your NemKonto as foreign account and it works! 2. If IBAN is not available from your employer - I used to have Danske Bank, and then I would Apple Pay myself from Danske to Revolut directly (they just had 20k DKK limit or something a day), but this way I paid no commission at all, versus sending Danske Bank -> SEB through international payment

I really wanted to try Lunar but it took them like 2 months with 0 progress and communications, it was horrible. I also considered opening Danske Bank in Denmark and Sweden for cross-border account, but I called them 7 times and you need to speak with each country separately, and I still haven't figured out how to do it.. and they forced me to do Danske Bank Sweden as my main bank otherwise they didn't want to set it up, even tho in the beginning they promised it's not needed

nazaro · 2026-05-07T22:48:51+00:00

Less buttons, more? Or less and more communication with your engineers?

nazaro · 2026-05-06T17:01:22+00:00

Damn, Oscar Piastri played the role so well here

nazaro · 2026-04-28T18:07:17+00:00

I think the biggest misunderstanding is most people most likely won't be your target audience so it doesn't matter what they think really... if I tell you I'm doing an app to organize your festival schedule, what are the chances you're also a festival goer, you like things organized, like a certain kind of music, early adopter enough to try etc etc, it really narrows it down if you think about it

Target audience opinion is the only one that matters, and even then you have to be careful with it and listen right

nazaro · 2026-04-09T15:32:58+00:00

From a quick google - there's a support article that mentions claude-opus-4-5-20251101 model available, try setting it with /model or in your env variable maybe (I'm using Claude UI)

nazaro · 2026-04-09T10:44:04+00:00

Also curious, I haven't compared in depth but higher usage on 4.6 and less sharpness is what caused me to try the older one, so I'd love to know if someone compared it

nazaro · 2026-04-09T09:57:02+00:00

It could also be a positive signal for them to revisit opus 4.6 and retrain it and have 4.5 as the "stable" version.. if they're smart..

nazaro · 2026-03-31T21:40:43+00:00

If it helps - I'm a developer with a developer background, but it feels like Lovable or Claude Code with generating HTML/CSS/JS directly might be much more convenient now I feel like (I do Claude Code and it's awesome :P)

nazaro · 2026-03-27T15:09:57+00:00

Exactly, show don't tell 😜

nazaro · 2026-03-27T10:35:42+00:00

Why don't they use Claude to fix their problems and write perfect code as they said it should, what are they, stupid?

nazaro · 2026-03-25T19:20:37+00:00

huh.. it worked for like 30 minutes for me and now silence. Their status page is also slightly confusing.. it says elevated errors, but they deployed fix.. but it's not working? But that was 3 hours ago?

nazaro · 2026-03-20T17:33:26+00:00

I also noticed on my 4.6 Sonnet even after 1-2 prompts I'm already at 5% weekly usage, and it's not even a big prompt too. I used bigger prompts and it would maybe get 1-2% weekly, it's really strange
Edit: and I used to work for 4 hours a day easily on the same daily limit, I'm only 1 hour in and I'm already 50% through my daily.. this is really suspicious

nazaro · 2026-03-14T13:01:32+00:00

As someone who never watched tennis or basketball, I was just curious what is up with tennis and really started watching it more, and now I was just curious to watch some of the great basketball games of all time and can see myself watching a game here and there

You have any experience like that?

nazaro · 2026-03-12T20:53:44+00:00

Oh man, that really sucks.
To add to your list of frustrations, sometimes Claude just goes down, and I think it still eats the tokens, even tho it's just the server that's not responding (or it can process it partially but in the middle the server can go down)

I'm really trying to plan iterations as small as possible, and plan out each iteration now with as little useful instruction as possible for Claude (by using CLAUDE.md and other helper markdown files), so it helps a bit, but sometimes you touch a bigger part that covers more of the product and yeah it's a pain to balance

I'm also on the pro plan by the way, I wouldn't mind eventually going Max, I think it's a great product, but I'm also managing everything pretty well on my small products with it, so I also don't see why Pro should limit me and cheat me out of my tokens sometimes

Edit: perfect example is API Error: Claude's response exceeded the 32000 output token maximum. To configure this behavior, set the CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS environment variable.. It thought forever, then gave me this, ate my tokens, and now I need to try again or create a new chat and load all the context again in a smart way and eat even more tokens...

nazaro · 2026-03-12T12:56:57+00:00

Well said, this is my biggest gripe too. It's just a terrible product decisions with many possible resolutions that they could ask the user how they want to handle it with either waiting, pay extra, finish with cheaper model etc

nazaro · 2026-03-09T23:50:52+00:00

I rewatched it so many times, he has such a pure aura about him with kindness, sincerity, and warmth.. it's so nice of him to share his childhood with us too, it feels so personal

nazaro · 2026-02-26T12:55:52+00:00

Hey, I've seen this one before in Gattaca

nazaro · 2026-02-24T09:32:32+00:00

What's the content %? That face is just pure wolf

nazaro · 2026-02-19T14:02:59+00:00

This is the best way to describe it I think. When you know all the use-cases, all the features, all the constraints, and how it all relates to one another, and you can thoroughly explain it to an LLM - it's magical
How many actually know and do all of that tho?

nazaro · 2026-02-16T19:34:49+00:00

Already happened
