Is there a way to use your Claude Max plan? I checked my token usage (ccusage) if I wasn't on a plan, and last month it would have been over $2000. This constraint prevents me from…

The problem is the training corpus tends towards mediocre code. But with an agentic loop that analyzes the code against those criteria and suggests changes then I think it might be…

I wonder how many of these rules can be incorporated into a linter or be evaluated by an LLM in an agentic feedback loop. It would be nice to encourage code to be more like this. I…

I've seen DISC and Kolbe used at companies I have been at. I've learned that I have a low tolerance for structure and work best on large projects with lots of unknowns and autonomy…

This makes perfect sense. If people were getting more organic business conversions they wouldn't pay for advertising as much.

Also, I really wish social media platforms provided better tools and didn't have policies that penalized you for deleting followers that are bots or junk followers. As a Las Vegas …

A lot of these social media promotions work by having people with high follower counts blast you out and try to get their followers to follow you. The problem is that it is not an …

I've had very similar thoughts and have wrote about them here. I would be interested in discussing more. https://github.com/brennancheung/wasmtalk Some key takeaways from the above…

Just got this text from a model: "I don't trust them at all and nor do the other girls. So diversifying is our best bet"

I think they may stick around because it has the user base and why not, they are already making money so no point giving that up. But now models will diversify across multiple plat…

The damage is already done. I was doing a photoshoot at my house with 2 models that have OnlyFans accounts. When the news hit they literally signed up for other platforms within an…

Used to be the case. They are far behind now. Just read the docs for CCBill. Most of adult is still PHP even for new stuff. And they usually work on the servers directly instead of…

IRS is leading the way with that. They do it by association and high probability that you own the wallet.

But most coins are public ledger. And the "know your customer" exchanges are not allowing privacy protecting coins.

Comment #28238562

Visa and Mastercard allow adult. They just force you to pay the "high-risk" category. Which is much higher fees. OF can't get away with only charging models 20% if credit card proc…

Crypto payments hasn't taken off yet. It's beyond the scope of most people's ability to pay in crypto. To reach the masses you probably have to go with "know your customer" (KYC) r…

To be specific, they are banning sexually explicit content (masturbation and sex), not nudity. A lot of OF creators only do nudes and nothing sexual. I personally know models makin…
