Earlier quoted context omitted.

What I found was that I *strongly* preferred Claude Code with its defaults. Codex was almost unusable to me -- It would spit out a 4-5 page plan where it kept repeating itself, where Claude would give me a crisp 1-2 pager I could actually review. *But* I don't work with the defaults -- I work with my own prompt framework based off of superpowers. Given sufficient prompt scaffolding, I've found the models relatively i…

I lack a bit of context. Can you point me to a place that explains what you use?

I haven't really shared what I use, I'm still deciding if that's something I want to do.

To get an idea of what I'm talking about, you could install https://github.com/obra/superpowers/ into both Codex and Claude Code -- You'll find that the behavior is remarkably similar if you A/B compare them on the same problems. CC occasionally misses things that Codex gets and vice versa.

Overall the output structure and final code is remarkably similar... Which is pretty different than if you just run them with their default system prompts. I'd throw codex out the window with its default outputs.

At work we have unlimited use of models from Anthropic and OpenAI (for now). My coworker, a Claude Code Opus 4.6 diehard, stopped by my desk today to say he finally installed Codex to try 5.5 and his feedback was basically “it just works and does what I ask and it doesn’t disconnect and it’s just so very matter of fact.” “Yeah I’ve been telling you this since like gpt-5 man!” “I know I know…” I have not spent much ti…

I mean we just need technological advancements so we can get this hosted locally for people

So Claude decided to take the rest of the day off without notice or giving a scheduled time off? Many such cases with humans (given that we continue to compare LLMs to humans these days which you cannot)

Introducing: Claude AWOL

It would be hilarious if instead of ending the world, Claude just gives up and shuts itself down.

I don't really mind hopping between claude/codex/glm/kimi except I don't know a good way to resume as session across agent harnesses. Normally I'd just have it write out what it's doing to a file, if I need to transfer context, but if it goes down mid-session that's a no-go. I think people have built tools for this, and of course you could reasonably vibe one yourself, but I don't really trust something like that to…

you never rely on agent's own memory system. create memory system of your own

I'm still not switching after Altman jumped on the cyberpunk totalitarian contract with the government

well apparently Dario did the same thing with Mythos - ethics for the big AI labs is mainly posturing

I wish palantir had their own model. Now that's a business I can get behind. Until then I have to use grok I guess.

I appreciate the objective anecdote, but obviously Coke™.

Whenever Claude goes down I relax with a nice jar of Newman's own pasta sauce. It's just zesty enough for me to dip bread in or make pasta. You name it

I built a hangout space to chill out in and chat to others while Claude is down (which is happening wayyy more often): https://clawdpenguin.com There's a live Claude status board in the corner so you know when it's time to get back to work.

Because you can't work without it? Yikes.

It's a great way to network and find companies that will need a ton of help in 6 months
