    It would have been nice to hear about how to be more efficient, task/token wise, especially with Opus 5. Most users are on a subscription, and aren’t able to run dynamic workflows,…

    I’m working on my own PCB and it’s my first time working on a hardware project. Any tips on how or where I could get my design reviewed?

    Good call. I use Litestream for offsite backups. SQLite also has a .backup command: sqlite3 /path/to/db '.backup /path/to/backup' or sqlite3 /path/to/db "VACUUM INTO '/path/to/back…

    Where I live prices are often higher than 20c/kWh, but lets take your example and halve it (10c/kWh) so it's ~$1.40/day or ~$500/year. On Openrouter, the cheapest GLM 5.2 provider …

    Running that full load is at least 600 W, so in a day ~14 kWh. At $0.2 a kWH, that would be $2.80/day or $1k a year of op-ex in electricity. Unless you really want privacy or the f…

    Currently running an experiment where I'm using Fable as a planner/orchestrator/verifier and using Mimo 2.5 as subagents/builders. Seems to be doing well with my old specs.
