    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    This is shortsighted, you're speaking in today's pricing terms. This is the point I am making.

    To add to that, as a separate post just to talk specifically about how Claude Code operates. It does things you never asked it to do. It needs access to a repo to work so it can pretend it needs to also write test harnesses and cases to check its own work and then refactor 2, 3, 10 fucking times...

    That is the grift. Claude Code (and all the different models on the Anthropic platform) are the most egregious out of all of them from what I've experienced first hand. And they can get away with that, because as of right now, Anthropic has the best models. AI is packaged and sold as automation...

    Why use Claude code for that? And are you using Opus, Sonnet or Haiku? You'll use, very literally, like 1/100th the tokens for that kind of task using Claude Chat with Haiku

    What are you using that this is the case? It's the opposite with ChatGPT and Claude. Claude Code GUZZLES tokens but Claude Cowork, and especially Claude Chat use very little in comparison. In fact, for most coding scenarios I reverted entirely away from Claude Code because I don't actually need...

    Opened up accounts with Schwab and started the process of transferring from Vanguard. Vanguard is mostly fine for what I need but every once in a while I can't do something I'd like to do. Already initiated the transfer of my individual brokerage account, waiting on the IRA since that's my...

    Most companies are/were forcing their entire org to use AI for EVERYTHING. So how's it gonna go when they finally wake up to what that actually costs and try to put a governor on it? "Why are you guys using so many tokens?!" "Because you literally threatened my job if I didn't"

    Jokes on you bud, she's just using tokens to automate all of that. Checkmate. This is actually happening faster than I expected. You know, the whole AI drug dealer dilemma. It was always gonna happen, I just figured it would be after some of the bigger players failed and left the space and the...

    Path of Exile 2

    The trials would be a lot more palatable if it was just some side quests you play your character normally through. I'm not sure why they thought turning the side games from PoE1 into mandatory trials was a good idea.

    Vanguard doesn't have actual IPO allocation programs, I'd only be able to buy shares on the open market after it begins trading. That's 100% certain. However, the people at Vanguard made it sound like the ticker won't even be available to trade until a day+ after that, which is what I'm pretty...

    I bought PLTR on day one as well via Vanguard I think these kids are just "cooked" as they say. Couldn't get put in touch with anyone who could give me a solid answer. I really need to move my money to another brokerage.

    Any of you traders have experience with IPOs? Vanguard doesn't offer IPO participation programs but I don't *think* that matters for just setting up limit orders on Friday and waiting until its available for public trading? Or is my money going to be locked out from trading for X period of time...

    Good God this show jumped the shark. "Guys!!! There are cameras all over the inside of the house showing exactly what happened because this guy was a psycho. Let's get rid of all that exonerating evidence, and actually do something criminal!!" And then the rest of the episode is even more...

    And then after all the the hemming and hawing and trying to make sense of the market, everyone realized this is just the entire market creating cash positions to throw at SpaceX.
