I was tempted about applying but that part is everything but nice and I think I'll just pass
There's no non-disparagement clause, so how about you left them use your name etc, and then you can come out in public and say those mean things and shame/embarrass them.
> The current ChatGPT $20/month plan goes a very long way
It sure does and Codex is great, but do you think they'll maintain the current prices after/if it eventually dominates Claude Code in terms of marketshare and mindshare?
I think we'll always have multiple options providing similar levels of service, like we do with Uber and Lyft.
Unlike Uber and Lyft, the price of inference continues to go down as datacenter capacity comes online and compute hardware gets more powerful.
So I think we'll always have affordable LLM services.
I do think the obsession with prices of the entry-level plans is a little odd. $20/month is nothing relative to the salaries people using these tools receive. HN is full of warnings that prices are going to go up in the future, but what's that going to change for software developers? Okay, so my $20/month plan goes to $40/month? $60/month? That's still less than I pay for internet access at home.
> This seems like a "we've banned you and will ban any account deemed to be ban-evading"
Honestly, if faced with such a situation, instead of just blocking, I would report the acc to GH Support, so that they nuke the account and its associated PRs/issues.
If you force it to use chain-of-thought: "Two fathers and two sons sum to how many people? Enumerate all the sets of solutions"
"Assuming the group consists only of “the two fathers and the two sons” (i.e., every person in the group is counted as a father and/or a son), the total number of distinct people can only be 3 or 4.
Reason: you are taking the union of a set of 2 fathers and a set of 2 sons. The union size is 2+2−overlap, so it is 4 if there’s no overlap and 3 if exactly one person is both a father and a son. (It cannot be 2 in any ordinary family tree.)"
Here it clearly states its assumption (finite set of people that excludes non-mentioned people, etc.)
In my case I've had it (Opus Thinking in CC) hit 80% of the 5-hour limit and 100% of the context window with one single tricky prompt, only to end up with worthless output.
Codex at least 'knows' to give up in half the time and 1/10th of the limits when that happens.
The DSi and GBA modes on 3DS aren't emulation, there's an actual Arm7 and GBA/NDS IP blocks in the 3DS. For the parts that do require software intervention (DSi RTC, input remapping, etc.) it's more-or-less hardware virtualization.
If you have a ChatGPT subscription, try Codex with GPT-5.2-High or 5.2-codex High? In my experience, while being much slower, it produces far better results than Opus and seems even more aggressively subsidized (more generous rate limits).
Not the person you are replying to but, even if the technical skills of AI increase (and stuff like Codex and Claude Code is indeed insanely good), you still need someone to make risky decisions that could take down prod.
Not sure management is eager to give permission to software owned by other companies (inference providers) the permission to delete prod DBs.
Also these roles usually involve talking to other teams and stakeholder more often than with a traditional SWE role.
Though
> There are no hiding places for any of us.
I agree with this statement. While the timeline is unclear (LLM use is heavily subsidized), I think this will translate into less demand for engineers, overall.
I think it is important to know that AI needs to be maintained. You can't reasonably expect it to have a 99.9% reliability rate. As long as this remains true work will exist in the foreseeable future.
