Getting $5000 worth of product essentially free and then being told to pay is not enshittification.

#212Re: Pro Max 5x quota exhausted in 1.5 hours despite moderate usage
#213I skimmed the issue. No wonder Anthropic closes these tickets out without much action. That’s just a wall of AI garbage. Here’s what I’ve done to mostly fix my usage issues: * Turn on max thinking on every session. It save tokens overall because I’m not correcting it of having it waste energy on dead paths. * keep active sessions active. It seems like caches are expiring after ~5 minutes (especially during peak usage…
Is this as opaque on their end as it sounds, or is there a way to check?

#214Hey all, Boris from the Claude Code team here. We've been investigating these reports, and a few of the top issues we've found are: 1. Prompt cache misses when using 1M token context window are expensive. Since Claude Code uses a 1 hour prompt cache window for the main agent, if you leave your computer for over an hour then continue a stale session, it's often a full cache miss. To improve this, we have shipped a few…
I have yet to see Anthropic doing the same. Sorry but this whole thing seems to be quite on purpose.

OpenAI (Codex) keeps on resetting the usage limits each time they fuck up... I have yet to see Anthropic doing the same. Sorry but this whole thing seems to be quite on purpose.

#219It feels so weird to me - people are exhausting their quotas while I am trying very hard to even reach mine with the $200 plan. We're generating all of the code for swamp[1] with AI. We review all of that generated code with AI (this is done with the anthropic API.) Every part of our SDLC is pure AI + compute. Many feature requests every day. Bug fixes, etc. Never hit the quota once. Something weird is definitely goi…
Man what the hell happened to System Initiative. It was a super weird pivot from sociotechnical proclamations to a tool I honestly have no idea what it does for me? Is it n8n for agents? Is it needed when I have a bunch of skills that approximate whatever swamp is trying to do? Who knows!
What it does for you is simple: if you want to automate something, it does. Load the AI harness of your choice, tell it what to automate, swamp builds extensions for whatever it needs to to accomplish your task.
It keeps a perfect memory of everything that was done, manages secrets through vaults (which are themselves extensions it can write) and leaves behind repeatable workflows. People have built all sorts of shit - full vm lifecycle management, homelab setups, manage infrastructure in aws and azure.
What's also interesting is the way we're building it. I gave a brief description in my initial comment.
