I think much of it is correct but missing a few things at least in my experience (in-house lawyer). In my experience what’s holding adoption back is gatekeeping by IT and security departments who think this is just like any other SaaS rollout that needs to be closely “vetted” and controlled by IT and security. The people who are really good at using AI can’t do anything when all they have access to is chatGPT. Mind you GPT with no connectors enabled. Not even Skills enabled. Security still “reviewing” those things.

At 6:00 AM sharp, my neighbor Harold steps onto his lawn to raise the American flag.

He is seventy-four. He wears a pressed shirt, moves with the precision of a clockwork automaton, and treats the wind as a personal enemy.

If the flag twists against the pole, he stands there for twenty minutes, staring at the rope, calculating aerodynamic resistance until the breeze surrenders.

I began adjusting my morning tea schedule to observe this daily battle. A warrior respects proper protocol.

On a windy Tuesday, the flag caught on a high bracket. Harold reached up, but he was three inches short.

I crossed the grass without a word. I am six feet tall. I extended my arm, cleared the fabric, and stepped back into a formal stance.

Harold did not say thank you. He looked at the flag, looked at my shoulder angle, and said, "Your posture is acceptable. Tomorrow, six o'clock. You hold the rope tension."

I had not applied for a military position. I had simply reached for a piece of cloth. Yet by sunrise the next morning, I was standing at attention in my bathrobe, managing rope drag for a retired artillery officer.

We performed this silent ceremony for three months. We spoke a total of fourteen words. I learned that a three-degree tilt in the hoist is considered a national tragedy in Harold’s domain.

In October, the flag remained at half-mast for four days.

I walked to his porch. The house was quiet. Harold was sitting in a chair by the window, looking out at the empty yard.

He pointed to the second-floor window across the street.

"My wife had dementia," he said softly. "For five years, she couldn't remember my name. But every morning at six, she would look out that window, see me raising the flag, and know she was safe at home."

She had passed away on Monday.

Harold looked at his hands. "I don't know who I'm raising it for tomorrow."

I went back to my house. I did not sleep.

At 5:55 AM, I stood on his lawn in a dark suit. Behind me stood Kevin, Tony, and four other men from the street, all dressed in their finest jackets, standing in a straight line in the morning mist.

Harold walked out to the porch. He stopped.

Kevin stepped forward and said, "Sir. The wind is coming from the east. We require your orders."

Harold looked at the seven men standing at attention on his grass. His chest expanded. His shoulders straightened.

He walked down the steps, took the rope, and gave the command.

The flag went up. It has never flown higher.

@mattshumer_ This is absurd. There’s no way you actual believe this is a good user experience. I hope the money they paid you is worth it. Opus 5 sucks and anyone with a functioning brain knows it.

[Willy6 @cwcwill]

Opus 5 is completely unusable. I really like Fable 5 but using it for a daily driver is expensive and overkill. Would really like to know from people who have used Codex and Claude Code how much different they are and if a Claude Code user (me) will be able to switch to Codex rather easily.

[Willy6 @cwcwill]

I've used Opus 5 a bunch of times in the last two days and it's really disappointing. Multiple times it just ignores instructions that worked perfectly with 4.8. I get that Opus 5 needs to prompted differently, but having to radically re-do entire skills and prompts just to fit to a new model is dumb.

@AbudBakri @bryan_johnson How does one fix the ratio to a healthy level?

[Willy6 @cwcwill]

I am using the Claude Max plan ($100/mo) using Claude Code. I have gone months without hitting the 5 hour limit. Worked all last week using Fable and same thing. Today hit it twice in the same day. Very odd and annoying.

I’m sorry, but there will never be another rendition of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl that comes remotely close to Whitney Houston singing it at Super Bowl XXV in 1991.
