Personalized meme :)
Today I notice that #Google is displaying a (1st-party) ad in both Gmail and Google Docs, something they have never done before. Ads are now in the last products of theirs I use.
Cost-saving tip for #aicoding: Use an agent harness with a short system prompt. My Claude Code setup uses ~30k tokens, 30% of my target max 100k convo length. Pi by contrast only uses ~1.5k out of the box.
My favorite #aicoding models in July 2026:
- GPT-5.3-Codex (moderate-high intelligence, high independence, moderate-low cost, BUT no vision),
- Claude Opus (high intelligence, moderate independence, high cost),
- Claude Sonnet (moderate…
Cost-saving tip for #aicoding: Use less expensive/powerful models for simpler problems. -- Note especially the model's "cache read/hit" price, which affects convo cost quadratically. The "input token", "output token", "cache write" prices …
Cost-saving tip for #aicoding: Manually "compact" multi-step conversations after completing each step by rewinding the convo to the start of the step and say "- Step N complete". Keeps convo length short. Retains full convo history fidelit…
Cost-saving tip for using AI coding agents: Use short conversations. Token usage increases quadratically with conversation length, because each new message must replay all previous messages. I try very hard to stay <100k tokens (<10% of a …
Today I broke my main branch by committing a "comment change" but I used the wrong comment character for the language of the file. Full-stack web dev problems :)
Concision is not a strength of current generation Claude models. I always have to cut down commit messages and code comments. Maybe I should try other vendors more. #aicoding
I’m thankful to be living in an age of “thinking machines” (for multiple definitions of this term)
AI prediction: (1) Local models will become as capable and usable as the frontier models of today (July 2026). (2) But local models will NOT actually be run locally commonly (>25%) by engineers even in rich markets like the US due to the h…
