@Linahuaa There are always more expensive options but you will find generally most rates at 10-20 euro for a 1 shot with a very cute girl. If you want more time then yeah you will pay for it but it’s still cheaper than Europe. Western countries people pay thousands of $$ for the same shit.

@MattCowlin 1 star on the App Store for me

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@chinmay_sawant_ @OpenAI @thsottiaux I also reported this bug to zero response. Frustrating.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@Aria_Churchill @OpenAI I run completely memory off. I work with multiple stacks and projects and memory just adds a bunch of shit to projects that’s not relevant. Anything I need it to remember is within the project context for all agents to read not just codex.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@DeniCodes Funny because there are actually heaps of people doing this. Most eventually get flagged and impressions dropped so I have been curious how this fake one has maintained impressions. I think the photos are carrying them

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@thdxr At least you will build it proper. They probably just built a landing page that spams emails to everyone that signs up for the waitlist and then never ships a product.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@jxnlco What about the reconnect issue causing it to start a new transcript and lose its state! This is super annoying and happening 5-10 times per hour?

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

If you think you are powerful now with AI and building things. Imagine in 12 months, if you spend just 2 hours each week learning more about software patterns and architecture.

I promise this will pay off.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@pcshipp How many views is this? I have a few free tools I have considered putting ads into that have about 10k page views per day

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

personally. I have worn a Garmin Fenix 7 Pro every day for the last year, and before that was the 6 Pro.

At least once per month, I look for a smart watch that fits the Tag, Rolex or similar line, but every option requires daily charging or some kind of trade-off. The Garmin lasts over 1 month on a single charge and does everything I could ever need. I might have to try this, though

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

AutoVisuals just hit 500 users and $200 in purchases in its first month. Would this tell you to go all in on ads and features?

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@R04ch Actually, I personally live further out in Samut Prakan, close to the water in a house now. But if I were looking for an apartment again, the main thing I am looking for is close to a BTS station. The downside is pollution and traffic.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@argofowl Yeah I tagged people with the actual bug report but got no response. Seems like reconnections are failing to find the original transcript so it just creates a new one with no memory

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

While I am enjoying my euro summer trip right now, I feel like I’m wasting so much valuable time not building 16 hours everyday. I still managed to ship new features in 3 of my apps this week but things are certainly slower while stopping to smell the roses.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@levelsio And they sit there undocked not moving intentionally so people don’t just up and leave.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

Codex is unusable. Constant reconnection issues and there is a bug that forgets the transcript state and starts a new one. The same chat has had the 3 reconnection issues in the last 10 minutes, essentially starting from zero over and over.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

I am not sure why this makes cloud the play. I have a homelab that runs multiple Linux VM setups right in my office. I can easily run 3 or 4 at a time on my $200 optiplex machine. Everything local, shared storage if I need it. Being local also means no lag. I still use my Mac for most of my work and worktrees but when I have a larger task or am spinning up a new project I reach for the Linux machines.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@pcshipp Ummm I have 500 users and I spent 400 on ai api credits last month for around $180 mrr that doesn’t include the 1500 a month I spent on ads.

[JJ Eaton @jayleaton]

@tinkerersanky @OpenAI @thsottiaux Iv been using mine all day and still says 100% left? It’s not really changes since they increased the limits for the event.
