Well if you're spending thousands on API tokens already, you could just drop the same amount on a 128GB MacBook Pro and that's a one time cost.

Well that would be enormously inefficient for one thing

We're all going to die one day

It's a bit annoying you can't set default mode to plan while keeping bypass permissions enabled though

You don't sell stuff I guess

I'm familiar with the reserved row approach (I use SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) and yeah this replenishing idea terrifies me.

I didn't say it didn't? Besides, for factual queries that don't need personalisation like that they can aggressively cache them.

There is no business model here. This is a terrible outcome.

That I just type into Google.

I don't understand this at all. Whenever I ask Gemini 3.1 Pro Extended, or Claude 5 Max something in chat, the most I ever wait is maybe 30 seconds. Is that really so bad?

Great idea, no one's ever tried that before

Take your slop somewhere else

Because the spec wasn't designed it was vibe coded

I do for my iPhone yes. It's definitely overkill and certainly not recommended for 99% of people.

So you're against all CDNs?

If you click on the link you will see that it's not "one single metric" there is literally all the metrics so you can make an informed decision

Another benefit is that fast mode can be used on subscription, but Anthropic's won't
