Two days into sabbatical and I hurt my back. Currently drinking White Russians and playing Zelda so I guess I’m micro dosing unemployment

the problem with "plan in smart model, implement in dumb model" is that a dumb model doesn't know when it needs to be smarter

Opus will happily create a prompt, and if you say "make it for Sonnet," then it'll become much more concise and use dumber language. amazing hack

Spotify is really good for obscure classical music and really awful for mainstream classical. Funny juxtaposition- my IDAGIO subscription is mostly useful for really popular composers

managing autonomous AI agents is probably like managing lazy and disinterested human engineers (i've only managed awesome and good engineers so i don't know for sure)

ok now that I've had coffee and can evaluate/review myself: Codex was Goodharting- 2.43x improvement is actually "20s constant cached" and the memory use was actually higher, but a config change masked it. Claude's 10% gain was honest but also behavior changing and failed tests

Codex est'd token spend is $113 (API rates). Claude is $31 (from `/cost`). I think Claude is the winner in this. Or at least the best loser? Clearly more aligned with my intent than Codex. Cheaper. Failed fast.
