Opus 5.5 is so good I am running out of tasks, side projects, ideas and bugs to fix

I might actually have to do marketing now

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

US models are now cheaper than Chinese opensource models like deepseek via the API. Forget about the sticker price, it's cheaper to use sol and opus/sonnet than deepseek in actual usage.

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

@charles_maddock something to do with git NFS

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

can confirm I got it too.

[Teortaxes▶️ (DeepSeek 推特🐋铁粉 2023 – ∞) @teortaxesTex]

it's true btw

[DHH @dhh]

There's almost no problem that can't be solved by going faster, trying more options, testing additional hypotheses. Accelerate!

Codex now randomly takes up all my RAM, @thsottiaux what are you guys doing?

[Matt Lieb?? @mattlieb]

If a Muslim person helped plant bombs inside of pagers killing 42 people and injuring 4000 including children, they’d be getting tortured in Guantanamo instead of complaining about not getting into a Hackathon.

[Vesuvius Challenge @scrollprize]

WOW! Letters found in PHerc. 1447, a GRAND PRIZE eligible scroll.

This means ONE thing: the $1M Grand Prize pool is now a LOW HANGING FRUIT!

America is such a funny country, of all the things to put effort in fixing, they decide to focus on how passports are delivered.

[Quinn Nelson @SnazzyLabs]

(a) lmao doing this like an Apple keynote is hilarious

(b) Marco Rubio is a better keynote presenter than most of the presenters during Google and Samsung events

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

They should just pause registrations instead of nerfing it. If only.

[Vincent @VincentBuilds]

Wait.
If Everyone cancels Codex and moves to Claude.
Anthropic runs out of compute.
Then Anthropic cuts limits too. 💀

[StolenAngel @MoisasADR]

@theo @leorivastech @AfricanKafka We still remember how you took away our access to the Codex beyond the 1%, just so you could score points on X with a "banger" post.

[felt @f_talize67515]

@leorivastech @AfricanKafka @theo That's not the issue, dumbass

The issue is when it gets publicized (more eyes on it) means it's more likely to get abused/taken advantage of and thus whatever benefits he reported on get revoked.

[Sergei Bondarev @bondarevserge]

@theo @AfricanKafka Last time you “reported” on Codex calling out to abuse its end-the-work-after-zero feature, well-known to hundreds of thousands, one of the best advantages of Codex was killed for all of us. Never said “sorry”. Never took a responsibility. Since then I never cared what you think.

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

@theo but you make them nerf the models with your reporting.

[African Kafka @AfricanKafka]

This guy opens his mouth and ruins things every time.

[Theo - t3.gg @theo]

A $200 Claude Code sub gets you ~$9,000 of Opus usage per month.

I have managed to run 3 Claude accounts down to 0% since Opus 5.5 dropped.

When analyzing their usage, costs were $2,086, $2,442, and $2,182.

Average is $2,200/week, so ~$9,000/month

If only African parties were clever enough to follow Xi Jinping thought or mimic CCP governing ideologies! Whichever country does it, they will go far.

[Natalie Winters @nataliegwinters]

🚨 China opened a “Xi Jinping Thought” center in Africa—and wants it to help SIX African political parties write their governing ideologies.

At a July symposium, China’s ambassador quoted Mao:

“The Party leads everything.”

She praised centralized Communist Party authority and ideological education, then urged African parties to learn from China’s model.

The center sits inside Tanzania’s Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Leadership School. Its launch brought together parties from:

🇹🇿 Tanzania
🇿🇦 South Africa
🇳🇦 Namibia
🇦🇴 Angola
🇲🇿 Mozambique
🇿🇼 Zimbabwe

Beijing wants the institution involved in “official training” and “policy advisory services.”

I thought the fathers in Gaza carrying bags of flesh they hope contain some of their children's remains were the victims here but actually no. It's Ed Fucking Sheeran.
