my 5700xt is still in use, has some instability after it repaid itself with mining but I love this card. newer cards are overpriced anyway

Don't really agree, in my experience the switching context is extremely costly. I personally have trouble having even a couple of sessions running in parallel,Especially when I'm talking difficult hard to solve problems. Of course it's easy for trivial jobs, but it's not always the case. I have been much more successful in making my time worth by taking a look at the model's output and actively participating.It gives me time to think as well.When I have a list of simple tasks I just tell it to the model and it executes one after another.

I have developed five applications for my Mac using claude that I made for myself. I'm perfectly happy with the setup. The projects help me solve daily problems. I could never have had the time or the skill to do them myself.

I have a similar experience. My hobby project was put on hold after a burnout and lack of motivation. I got a big burst of energy back when I started implementing some long desired features quickly with these new models. I was able to get the project to the point of what I consider is maturity. I did in a month during free time the kind of work that would have burned me up in a good six months fulltime.

I am having immense success with the latest models developing a personal project that I open sourced and then got burned off by.I can't write anymore by hands but I do enjoy writing prompts with my voice.I have been shipping the best code the project has ever seen.The revolution is real.

Given the current situation regarding the hardware getting more pricey, I was so fed up with the inconsistencies, the constant micro lagging frame rate drops that I finally bit the bullet on a Mac studio a couple of weeks ago. This happened after 17 years of being a Windows user and having built more than 20 machines unfortunately Linux does not have a lot commercial software that I needed

5900X here with mobo from 2019. Will upgrade my GPU or get a mac if I'm able to setup my wacom pen the way I want. Either way I will keep the current machine
