@pvncher I like describing a complex problem and then asking the top level model to break it down to smaller tasks which can be handed off to individual workers. This way I get away with multiple workers without a separate worktree for each.

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

I get why codex would not automatically retry "selected model at capacity" but silently failing is just so annoying. At least send a notification.

@thorstenball good old fashioned conversion funnel I feel. just more views -> possible followers -> sell the account?

twitter seems to have done something where quote tweets and so on don't get much views but replies do

POV: you're writing rust on a 500GB macbook

@maria_rcks I'm seeing at least 2-3x sol usage with 6.1 compared to before

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

I managed to burn through only 5% of weekly usage with sol 6.1 when sol 6 would be at least 10% by this time of the day. this is pretty odd

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@theodorvaryag nix makes it trivial to patch packages. that's where I ended up

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@nateberkopec will one-up you by typing into neovim using the gimp mask

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@azamsharp how is this unpopular

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

for anyone vibecoding rust, the agents love to get around lifetime management by spamming clone. you probably need to go over clone calls in hot paths

@mitsuhiko don't show ruby devs curly braces you're scaring them

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@yacineMTB or it is just the arrogance of someone who has a really high paying job for what's essentially a craft, and gets to call themselves an engineer

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@pkuhar @yacineMTB this is naive, bulldozers don't get better driving themselves every 10 days

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

sol 6.1 would have been a great release was it not for opus raising the bar this much

[Behzad @behzadotdev]

@theo you either die as a shill or live long enough to become a flip flop

@eiselems the luna price cuts will continue until morale improves

@reset_by_peer from ruby on rails to worrying about SIMD is so funny

astra eats through 20x usage, how is this supposed to work

[Tibo @thsottiaux]

Hi,

Tomorrow we are re-opening the Pro $200 subscriptions to new subscribers, but together with it we are also changing how we calculate the usage for it. In effect, if you do the math, it will net out at half the dollar in API spend compared to the old Pro $200 plan.

Now that it's said, let me explain why this is happening and why you will still get more work done than if you were on the Pro $200 subscription one month ago.

(a) We didn't want to compromise in other ways and are committing to not reintroducing the 5h limit, so that you can fully use the weekly usage when you want.
(b) On the subscription, we guarantee that over time you always get more work done and with an increasing level of quality. This means that you will continue to get more value per dollar spent as a result of models getting more efficient and us passing down the improvements in the form of API price reductions.
(c) We don't want to put an incentive on ourselves to artificially inflate the API list prices to make it look like you are getting a lot (and workaround it through discounts, etc). Instead we want to continue to both rapidly reduce prices and increase capabilities of models on the API. This week we introduced GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna at 50% of their previous price. Over time, we see prices go low enough that it makes sense for most to buy usage as needed without there being a significant gap between what you get in a subscription and what you get in the API for a dollar spent.
(d) Tomorrow, we are adding more things to the subscription that won't draw on the usage, I won't reveal what that is yet.

I wanted to be transparent before all the big announcements tomorrow. Lots of new exciting things are coming to the subscriptions that will make it super compelling, but I wanted to make sure to share this change ahead of time so you can all understand it before we shower you with good news.

Codexingly,
Tibo

@alxai_ seen the same thing with dota. seems to generalize to people taking a competitive seriously imo
