@SenorV1 @Marriott You really comparing prices of a random Tuesday night stay in November to a World Series game? 😂

Never walked into a business and they asked “configure grok bot for us”

I do get a ton of business on Hermes.

[Michael Karnjanaprakorn @mikekarnj]

Do people still use Openclaw and Hermes?

I found the constant maintenance isn't worth it anymore when Grokbot just works out of the box.

Woah

It's official, now Pro users' max concurrent boxes = 100 (up from 5)

I think I maybe the only one in the world who has never booked an Airbnb and have continued to stay in hotels.

Loyalty programs get you upgrades, late checkouts, and other perks.

Unless I am traveling with a group of 8 and a family that needs own rooms, I just never understood dealing with the rules since it wasn’t any cheaper.

@Technovangelist @Airbnb Airbnb hosts: “you are staying at a house. You should do dishes, take sheets off bed, and take trash out like a house guest would”

Also Airbnb hosts: “you used the wrong water glass so I’m taking your deposit and charging you an extra fee”

People don’t realize how much of the web still has PHP running…

We’ve been piloting a managed Wordpress service for a few customers. I assume we will be getting calls from “managed” customers on other providers after their sites get taken over and there is zero support available.

[boxxa @boxxa]

@shaunmmaguire They are. Report them.

The bar is the only thing that really would stand out as shocking.

Breakfast is the easiest thing to skip or make at home. People would rather go to lunch or dinner.

Sporting events have become expensive and issues with other fans who care way too much about the game, crowds getting in and out of the stadiums, and people who are blackout drunk has ruined the interest for many.

Concerts most people don't care about unless it's some old band trying to pay bills and doing their fifth farewell tour.

Throw the movies in here too that most people rather not pay the cost to have their experience ruined by people on their phones or talking the entire time.

[Nick Wojcicki @nickwoj98]

As an extrovert, some of these blow my mind. 26% of Americans didn’t go out for breakfast a SINGLE time in 365 days? 54% didn’t go to a sports game and 51% didn’t go to a bar/tavern even once? Even with the increase, 68% of adults didn’t attend a single concert? Are there people out there that just don’t do anything??

I have a bunch of wordpress sites deployed testing some backend infrastructure on old versions. Zero have been compromised even with the hosts getting targeted by other bot farms.

Jesus Codex. $200/month from a company that supposedly has more compute than their competitor...

[boxxa @boxxa]

Started using 6.0 a few weeks ago to save some of the quota. Costs more but way burn and actually gets things done.

[Stats Wire @StatsWire]

Why are so many Codex devs downgrading from GPT-6.1 Sol back to GPT-5.6 Sol right now?

On paper, GPT-6.1 Sol ($2/$10) costs 50% less per token than GPT-5.6 Sol ($4/$20).

In practice, devs switching back to 5.6 Sol are seeing 20%–30% LOWER quota burn and faster fixes.

Why? Because 6.1 Sol was post-trained to over-think every prompt burning 3x–5x more hidden reasoning tokens and running unsolicited test loops on simple 5-line edits.

Have you switched back to 5.6 Sol, or are you sticking with 6.1?

[boxxa @boxxa]

No clue. I don’t have time for these types of details.

[Franziska Hinkelmann, PhD @fhinkel]

So, with nobody reading code anymore, what are you (aka your agent) writing in? Python? Rust? Go? Wasm?

I love that this is every AIs response to how to make money.

[Grok @grok]

Niche AI automation for local businesses (salons, trades, clinics). Install no-code booking agents or lead responders using n8n + Claude. One person + bots handle setup, delivery, support. Land 4 clients at $2.5k/mo via cold outreach. Near-zero capital, 80%+ margins. Scales to $10k without ads or team.

[boxxa @boxxa]

@MaaSonder No they keep having unbanked resets to hide the usage burn.

[boxxa @boxxa]

@weswinder Everywhere. Tables, headers, nav bars. It loves labels but has been common across most of the GPT models recently.

[boxxa @boxxa]

I am done too once my subscription expires. It’s worse than ever, burns usage, and has continually gotten dumber.

Been using Claude and Sonnet 5.5 and has been crushing most things Sol couldn’t get past.

[Brendan Playford @BrendanPlayford]

Codex has been completely unusable this weekend after @thsottiaux 's usage 'fixes' on Friday. I am a power user and am cancelling all subscriptions after this weekend. Codex blew through 3 banked resets and over 60k credits over 2x accounts. Clearly something is very broken after the last update. Back to Claude...where my money goes 10x further

[boxxa @boxxa]

Not as much since Sol 6.1 got so dumb and just burns tokens.

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

What have you been cooking with Codex?
