I feel like with time, 50 is the new 70.

Those numbers make sense to me...120 million input tokens is like 120 sessions of hitting the full context limit, which seems like a lot to me though

Reads like a LOT of tokens to me. What does your usage /workflow look like? I'm v curious because although I do use Claude code, my token counts aren't nearly as much

I want to know if I'm missing something cool!

When you have a general idea of what smells bad vs what's okay...why?

I'd rather get it from the LLM and review

They report an hour less than average sleep time the first 3 months?!

Out of curiosity, what kind of custom harness are you thinking?

I do something tangential. If you can pick out identifiers for these pages with deterministic features (financial pages have the most numbers on the page, or have the word "director", "general manager" and "managing director" on the same page, etc)

Pick those pages out and pipe only those to the llm

Luckily I work with excel w lots of sheets and don't need to do pdf to text conversion etc

I was going to type you a sympathetic message and took a peek at your profile, and...well that's quite a resume you got there!

Accountability. Same reason I want to read human written content rather than obvious AI: both can be equally shit, but at least with humans there's a high probability of the aspirational quality of wanting to be considered "good"

With AI I have no way of telling if it was from a one line prompt or hundreds. I have to assume it was one line by default if there's no human sticking their neck out for it.

Fair enough. I had a hard time advocating for good password flows because "standards" said frequent rotation etc.

And tbh when you apply those standards with context and are faced with people bare-minimum pointing at the standards, you sometimes come off as less knowledgeable - such is the authority of research/standards.

Anyway, I skimmed your profile and learnt a new word, milquetoast - so thanks for that!

Fairly obvious? Or isn't it that way for everyone?
