@MichaelStolarzwith opus 4.1 there's now no good reason to use sonnet 4 (given we're talking about max20 claude code plan here)
it used to be that sonnet 4 could potentially outperform especially with speed opus 4, but seems like opus 4.1 is across the board better now
@MichaelStolarzkeep your memories clean
store everything as markdown/plaintext
this is a short term victory but a victory nonetheless
in 5ish years though? it wont matter
you'll just swarm xyz application you used to use,
it will consume every bit of data it possibly can
and migrate you easily
@MichaelStolarzyou can now live in the cli btw and do everything from there
i mean you always could, but now you can make fully custom fine tuned golang tview interfaces perfected for your exact daily workflow... in about a few hours worth of tinkering
@MichaelStolarzwhile i agree, the problem is
until openai catches up with...
1. a coding model surpassing unlimited Opus 4
2. a CLI 2x better than Claude Code (codex is TRASH)
3. aforementioned unlimited coding model included in their already-existing $200 plan
...we're stuck with Daddy Dario
@TheAhmadOsman
some of anthropic rugpulls so far: > windsurf no access to claude 4 > plus not getting opus 4 in claude code > 1.58-bit quantized models during daytime > max plans limits cut in half 2 weeks ago, no comms > weekly limits without concrete numbers > 5x/20x plans being actuall… Less

@MichaelStolarzthis is an amazing example
of thinking that you're being super productive and making use of your max 200 claude code plan
the reality is this is much, much slower than one instance per project
regarding the straight to main and skip perms - that's totally fine, i do that too
@MichaelStolarzunfortunately they are still dogwater at coding
yeah they can use a few tools and one shot things pretty ok but they totally fall apart further with every follow up prompt you make to it
@ChrisGPT
Horizon Beta - Xbox 360 controller. The models are definitely getting better
@MichaelStolarzWelp, time to do another all nighter and see what YET ANOTHER @openrouter stealth model is capable of.
@MichaelStolarzclaude code tip
@Maciek_roboblog made the amazing claude-monitor
most accurate and informationally useful tool i've found so far to quickly understand where you're at in terms of usage
@MichaelStolarzif you pay attention
the llm psychosis farm is leaking out
@MichaelStolarzon one hand,
funding would speed up progress at least 5x
on the other hand,
there is no "other" hand, both hands are pro-funding
@MichaelStolarzcrazy how we got gpt-5 level gpt-5
AND
gpt-5 level video generation
in the summer of 2025
a summer to remember

That's it — another megathread. Best of Runway Aleph (Day 2): 1.
@MichaelStolarzyou have to be so rich to be rich,
even if you're rich, you're not rich;
you have to be AT LEAST wealthy to be rich nowadays.
@samswoora
Its insane how rich you have to be to be rich.
@MichaelStolarzfeels like the open source "you can run it at home" model that openai has in store for us all
first impressions, yeah it's a SMALL model, but damn it if i say it's actually pretty good
like, able to vibe code on the plane with no wifi good and actually get some work done

@MichaelStolarzevery time i think im maybe shitposting a bit too much
i see that u can still see the exact number of tweets when u look at my account profile
vs. REAL shitposters have their numbers in the tens or hundreds of Ks
surely i'll hit minimum 10K before EOY
@MichaelStolarzthey're coming
quick, hide the thinking sand we made
lets pretend we're still at the nukes stage
@Polymarket
BREAKING: New study suggests a potentially hostile interstellar alien spacecraft measuring nearly 7 miles long could be on a trajectory toward Earth.
@MichaelStolarzweird stuff going on with claude code's session limit resets
twice today my claude 4 opus has reset at 4 hours, not 5
im not complaining but idk feels weird
and no it's not setting itself as sonnet behind the scenes, i thought so too but nope, still opus
@MichaelStolarzdid mark see something that explains why he's throwing billion dollar offers for single persons?
i have a feeling he has no care in the world when it comes to "paper money" as people call it
his eyes have seen behind the curtain
he's seen the loading screen for the next stage
@AIatMeta
Today Mark shared Meta’s vision for the future of personal superintelligence for everyone. Read his full letter here: meta.com/superintellige…
@MichaelStolarzclaude code tip:
dont run agents in parallel. i've tried in many cases, the lack of them sharing information while in parallel really nerfs their efficacy.
instead, let your agents know they're able to run themselves/other agents at another level deep:
@MichaelStolarzi was checking out, saw the cashier using chatgpt. "ah, chatgpt! everyone's using it now instead of google, huh?"
her: "haha yeah, it really helps me plan my homework out so i get the hard stuff done first"
me: "cool! do you use regular 4o with that or o3?"
her: "what's that?"
@MichaelStolarz"contributing compute resources to advance critical research"
so this is where my unlimited claude 4 opus went
@AnthropicAI
We’re joining the UK AI Security Institute's Alignment Project, contributing compute resources to advance critical research. As AI systems grow more capable, ensuring they behave predictably and in line with human values gets ever more vital. alignmentproject.aisi.gov.uk
@MichaelStolarzit's funny seeing people use tier 3/4 models (think gpt-4o-mini) to do mathematical predictions
they repeat it with such confidence; as a child boasting to new classmates on their first day of kindergarten
"did u know my dad is the smartest in the world? look what he said!"
@MichaelStolarzwhy run multiple claude code instances when you can just run multiple parallel subagents
unless you're splitting your attention between multiple projects which in that case i wouldn't recommend doing that in the first place if you want high quality maintainable results
@MichaelStolarzuh today i learned that claude code sub agents can call sub agents of their own
i wonder how many layers that can go
@MichaelStolarzit's different than gif
because of the e instead of i
jepa is jeh-pah
gepa is gee-pah
@giffmana
So how are we now supposed to pronounce JEPA vs GEPA?! Come on guys, this is worse than GIF. x.com/jacksonatkinsx…
@MichaelStolarzthis will never be reality again btw
it'll be mentioned the same way we mention how people handcrafted written letters, so carefully, lovingly, including a lipstick kiss or a dried daisy
future generations will say "aw cute, you used to just, like, talk to strangers before?"
@nosilverv
At a truck stop restaurant. Everyone is sitting together, on their phone, silently. In the village. Everyone is sitting together, on their phone, silently. Smartphones are a SCOURGE!!!
@MichaelStolarzthe bright side of this heartbreaking anthropic announcement of rate limiting claude code:
openai perfectly positioned to add unlimited codex cli to their 200 plan
@MichaelStolarzit's so over
it's me. i'm the "one user"
@MichaelStolarznvidia will be first company to reach 10 trillion idk maybe even before 2030? x.com/AndrewCurran_/…
@MichaelStolarzi remember watching nearly 2 decades ago, him being so calmly confident and matter-of-fact, all while polls against his predictions (of the top 1% researchers/industry leaders of the space) were all >80% against his predictions
he never batted an eye, never panic-explained.
@inductionheads
The most amazing thing about Ray Kurzweil is how completely and sincerely unsurprised about all of this he is He's not like "to tell you the truth I didn't really believe this would happen either, wow" Instead he pulls up the same graph he's been using for 30 years Legend

@MichaelStolarzremember those videos where people would inpaint robots over people doing things? fooling boomers & co. on facebook, etc?
is there much sci fi left to fake anymore? is there anything i could watch as a faked video when i'm 60+ yo and get tricked thinking it's real?
@minchoi
Well that's scary... China's Unitree has a new robot, R1
@MichaelStolarzif you think chatgpt psychosis has messed with people's minds so far
wait until these new storytelling mind-rooting models hit mainstream use
@MichaelStolarzOnce you get to intermediate / advanced level in Claude Code you start to see how there's very little tutorials on tehse topics and the internet is littered with beginner tutorials all teaching pretty much the same thing.

@MichaelStolarzthis is all you need to see/know about the new subagents mode of claude code
this ran start to finish for roughly over 1 hour
the result is perfect, chef's kiss, cleanest code i've ever seen
now imagine, i have at least 5 of these running at all times
wbu anon?
@MichaelStolarzliterally the only problem with claude code now
is tok/s
im forced to use sonnet if i want to get a feature done using my subagents flow
but damn is it worth it because so far it has a 100% success rate of whatever i throw at it
@MichaelStolarzo3 in chatgpt feels very different
feels like intelligence is oozing from it with every word i read
what did they do?
@MichaelStolarzre. claude code subagents update;
commands are basically useless now, much better results with "run my _ agent to _"
@MichaelStolarznew memetic virus installed
vibe coding with claude code is basically just note-taking but your notes actually do something for you and you can run them
@dejavucoder
it's just me, you and our note-takers
@MichaelStolarzif you're self sufficient (self employed), not knowing this ISN'T bad
but if your livelihood depends on being an employee, not knowing this IS BAD
if i asked an llm, it not knowing this makes it a bad coder llm
tldr; treat hiring employees the same as testing out an llm
@yacineMTB
the interview question that i'd pull out to fail the vast majority of people was a simple double buffering question
@MichaelStolarzit will literally become mainstream logic of "if xyz is so smart, why aren't they going viral on tiktok about what their plan/values are?"

@MichaelStolarzcrazy to see people still using llms to make single file manual edits, giving the llm no other context, just raw dogging + guessing + duplicate code must be insane
@MichaelStolarzit's over for all my competitors, past future present
latest claude code update is godlike
@MichaelStolarzjuly 2025 is about to close out,
seems like it was dominated by china
i think i'll start an end of month usa vs china thing, seeing who won the month in the world of AI (when it comes to my niche llm/coding usefulness scale only, not really keeping up with image/video gen)

@BhandarkarPawan
what
@MichaelStolarzclaude code has...
checkpointing now?
@MichaelStolarzby the way claude code sneakily added in sub agents last night during the doc outage
@MichaelStolarzweird, claude code docs are down
docs update? gui for claude code dropping?
@MichaelStolarzsonnet 4 wants to show off how amazing of a coder it is
opus 4 could care less about impressing you
opus 4 is like a genius only interested in growing its knowledge, not actually utilizing it
@MichaelStolarzi forgot how good deepseek v3 0324 still is compared to its peer models
@MichaelStolarzthe only solution to this problem is to bring back civility (or teach it to the uninitiated) through kind but corrective confrontation
different cases call for different handling
