Why not go direct to the source instead of paying an extra 5.5%? Seems like it'd be trivial to have AI wire up connections to your preferred inference providers and save yourself some money over time.
What really irks me about it is that the palm pilot I had 20+ years ago actually had BETTER hand writing recognition than the software on my devices today!
Huh, looked this up as Acetaminophen is one of the only OTC painkillers I can take. I thought NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) sounded familiar and low and behold I already have some I've purchased as a supplement.
Anyone can buy this stuff, no need to make it sound like it's some controlled substance. I will say if I take to much Acetaminophen I'll just head to the hospital instead of winging it!
I've loved Superpowers right along. I think a lot of what it does has been ingested into Claude Code proper now so I'll be interested to see if this release actually changes things up.
You could have your Coding agent use this to do it for you! Really though it's about using the right tool for the job, and this seems like a better choice to use a tool like this so you don't have your agent burn tons of tokens imperfectly working through all your documents at a slower pace.
Personally I'll be giving this a whirl as part of my note distillation process. I end up with hundreds of pages of PDFs and docx files that I'm sure would be easy to convert with a dedicated tool.
The speed was impressive when I tested it but unfortunately the accuracy left a lot to be desired. Be interesting to do the math on some of my normal workflows to see where the break even is between them, assuming the tasks you have can tolerate a couple of failures.
Just today I was thinking about threading the needle on that and making my own Steam Machine with an AMD BC-250 board. Maybe I still will, it'd be a 10th the price and I do love to tinker.
I actually feel the opposite of what most people are saying here. I thought your writing style was great. It felt like you respected my time as a reader and got to the fucking point.
Not at all! My company has 100s of clients and we track time in 6 minute increments. I feed in my browser history, terminal logs, session scripts, calendar, git commits, etc etc into it and voila it produces a highly accurate timesheet in no time flat.
Automating it has been way better for me than the alternative of breaking my flow whenever I'm switching tasks to chart my time, or logging all my hours for the week in one sitting. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
Local privacy respecting inference can be worth it. I use a local model to log everything I do all week to automate my timesheet. I also have it do a bunch of other data tasks. I won't say that larger SOTA models wouldn't do these tasks better than a local model but PII is a concern and my employer wouldn't approve of me just setting tokens on fire everyday to do what I could do myself.
Awesome, thank you so much for that! I'll have to dig in and get this working for my work machine where I still have to use Chrome. I literally quit using Chrome for personal use over this but I guess it was premature.
I thought these stopped working altogether with the release of Chrome 142? I know you could override it for awhile there, but I've been lead to believe that option is gone.
This is part of what forced my hand and made Firefox my daily driver, at least for personal use.
Yes, it's been a way better deal to go for a subscription than pay as you go for me in the past. I had a month where I burnt through ~3.8b tokens which was somewhere in the ballpark of $8k worth of savings.
Now though I don't dare use spend tokens for basic note taking with Sonnet because I'm hitting the limit over a couple million tokens on the 20x plan, so they've really tightened the purse strings since November.
They must mean by creating a composite image with multiple in focus areas? Otherwise I agree, I can't see anyway that multiple exposures would help, at least from some light reading on Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_exposure
I think some of this comes down to undeclared A/B testing. I've had the worst week of interactions I have ever had using Claude Code. The whole week whenever I have a session that isn't failing miserably I seem to get tapped for a session survey but on any that are out and out shitting the bed it never asks. It has felt a little surreal. I'd love to see a product wide stats graph for swearing, I would 100% believe that it is hitting an all time high but maybe I'm just a victim of a bad A/B round.
