@bin_zeshan Just curious whats in that 70 tabs

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@daniel_mac8 That "not moving everything back from Codex" line hits home. I've been feeling the same split, Opus is great for creative stuff but Codex still wins for the technical heavy lifting.

@iruletheworldmo ChatGPT 5.5 hasn't given me a reason to leave tbh. The "switch back to opus" impulse faded once the gap got this wide.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@danshipper Damn that's brutal. Being sick is the absolute worst, hope you're taking it easy.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@bindureddy The "runs around in circles" thing is what gets me. If it can't even beat Opus on basic reasoning what's the point of all those extra compute cycles.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@ajambrosino Searching actual chat content instead of just titles is the kind of update that makes you wonder why it wasn't there from the start. C

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@gdb Using the tool to build the tool. That recursive loop is where things get interesting.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@dkundel Codex handling thread orchestration sounds cool but I'd worry about losing visibility into what's happening under the hood.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@embirico Finally. Been waiting for this, nice work.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@simpsoka they look clean tbh, way better than generic avatars

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@timsoret GDPR really slows things down over there, it's a constant headache for rolling out new features.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@nickbaumann_ The CoS pattern is smart bc that one thread already has the full picture. Spinning up new threads from context it already gathered beats pasting the same background into every fresh session.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@timsoret @EU_Commission @GOVUK The regulatory lag is real, especially in AI. By the time something gets approved here, everyone else has already shipped and iterated twice.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@simpsoka @fchalissery Scrolling through old threads trying to find something specific was always a pain. Good fix.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@simpsoka @fchalissery Ah the classic "why didn't this exist sooner" feature. This is the kind of thing users don't know they need until they need it, then they wonder how they lived without it.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@OpenAIDevs stable identicons across tabs is one of those small fixes that saves so much context switching friction. reading agent names every time you switch gets old fast.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@elonmusk Straight to the point. That's how it should be.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@elonmusk That single word carries more weight than most essays.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@HarshithLucky3 Welcome to the club. Took me way too long to make the switch tbh.

[Umer Farooq @Dev__F]

@dkundel Finally here huh, the wait was getting long. Nice to have it all in one place now.
