> None of us are experts in Rust, and we're all solid at Python.

you don't need to be, you can learn Rust or whatever way-better-than Python language as you use it with an LLM! it's an amazing process.

Right, they run tests too. A compiler is like a quick test before tests. How are you going to cut out that check and let the LLM "write it faster" is beyond me. The compiler catches errors across codebases that today's LLM can't economically or reliably put into context to perform similar checks. They're totally different tools, today.

Also, you can just compile less frequently.

But hey, if LLMs are what drove this person from Haskell to Lisp then all the power to them!

They are not covered in AP chemistry this is just your typical "when I studied differential geometry in high school" HN comment

Pi and sigma bonds fall out of thinking of it from a physical/symmetrical/statistical perspective. There's not too much hand waving in the modeling of atomic and molecular orbitals.

The $20 GPT plan with GPT 5.5 lasted me, somehow, exactly one smallish fixup feature

Totally. My experience as well. After some time with codex you're like come on Claude can you just stfu! Haha. I now almost always instruct Claude with specific length requirements when I ask questions. Otherwise, it just blathers and blathers in the most annoying of ways. "Oppressive" is spot on in my opinion

If you can afford it and you have something to justify the expense, I would get both. they're interesting to run side by side, you can hand things off from one to the other. Pretty neat. Unfortunately now I just want to have both :(

Oh yes, their need to cover themselves is understandable for sure :)

Because if this person was paying enterprise for tokens, they:

1. wouldn't write stuff like "I've only spent a few hundred dollars using gpt-5.5/5.6 and codex"

2. wouldn't think tokens are cheap

It's not understandable IMO, bad guys will still have guns.

Because we pay retail consumer prices (subscriptions). Those same tokens cost many thousands on enterprise billing:/

OP's post clearly described his thought process and experience. What are experience are you basing your assertions on?

> He does sell supplements

Kind of says everything we need to know?

> Since people really snag on the money part

This is the whole part :) it's a good thing to snag on in my opinion
