People can’t understand you can’t have both protecting the poor and not enforcing laws against the poor at the same time

Honestly, just try it. I used both and there's no reason to not try depending on which model is superior at a given point. I've found 5.4 to be better atm (subject to change any time) even though Claude Code had a slicker UI for awhile.

I will be coming back and taking over a lot of the engineering work as well as operations. This is especially time sensitive because we are trying to figure this out for Demo Day.
