Earlier quoted context omitted.
Anyone see news of when it’s planned to go live in copilot?
The option just shown up in Copilot settings page for me
Same! Rock and roll!

#102Have they documented the context window changes for Claude 4 anywhere? My (barely informed) understanding was one of the reasons Gemini 2.5 has been so useful is that it can handle huge amounts of context --- 50-70kloc?
Context window is unchanged for Sonnet. (200k in/64k out): https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/about-claude/models/overv...
In practice, the 1M context of Gemini 2.5 isn't that much of a differentiator because larger context has diminishing returns on adherence to later tokens.

#103> Finally, we've introduced thinking summaries for Claude 4 models that use a smaller model to condense lengthy thought processes. This summarization is only needed about 5% of the time—most thought processes are short enough to display in full. Users requiring raw chains of thought for advanced prompt engineering can contact sales about our new Developer Mode to retain full access. Extremely cringe behaviour. Raw Co…
pretty sure the cringe doesn't stop there. It wouldn't surprise me if this is not the only thing that they are attempting to game and hide from their users.
The Max subscription with fake limits increase comes to mind.

#104I've found myself having brand loyalty to Claude. I don't really trust any of the other models with coding, the only one I even let close to my work is Claude. And this is after trying most of them. Looking forward to trying 4.
I think "Kagi Code" or whatever it's called is using Claude

#105How long will the VScode wrapper (cursor, windsurf) survive? Love to try the Claude Code VScode extension if the price is right and purchase-able from China.
I don't see any benefit in those VC funded wrappers over open source VS Code (or better, VSCodium) extensions like Roo/Cline.
They survive through VC funding, marketing, and inertia, I suppose.

#106Allegedly Claude 4 Opus can run autonomously for 7 hours (basically automating an entire SWE workday).
How much does it cost to have it run for 7 hours straight?

#107Allegedly Claude 4 Opus can run autonomously for 7 hours (basically automating an entire SWE workday).
Which sort of workday? The sort where you rewrite your code 8 times and end the day with no marginal business value produced?
Well, at least it doesn't distract your coworkers, disrupting their flow
Re: Claude 4
#108I really hope sonnet 4 is not obsessed with tool calls the way 3-7 is. 3-5 was sort of this magical experience where, for the first time, I felt the sense that models were going to master programming. It’s kind of been downhill from there.

what do you mean purchasable from china? As in you are based in china or is there a way to game the tokens pricing
Claude register need a phone number, but cannot select China (+86), and even if I have a account, it may hard to purchase because the credit card issue.
Some app like Windsurf can easily pay with Alipay, a everyone-app in China.
