Ask HN: Anthropic changing billing for third-party harnesses for Teams Accounts?

qdot76367 — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 23:25:04 +0000

We just got an email from Anthropic about Claude Teams Accounts:

---

Hi Claude Admin,

We're offering your team a one-time credit of $200 to your Team plan. Redeem it for your team by April 17. Once claimed, it’s good for 90 days across Claude Code, Claude Cowork, chat, or third-party harnesses connected to your account.

You’re also now able to pre-purchase bundles of extra usage at up to 30% off. If your team regularly runs past subscription limits, this is the easiest way to keep them going.

One note: starting April 4, third-party harnesses like OpenClaw connected to your Team account will draw from extra usage instead of from your subscription. If your team doesn't use them, nothing changes. If they do, the credit and bundles above have you covered.

Thanks for building with Claude.

Specifically calls out Openclaw, but what about opencode, pi, etc?

New comment by qdot76367 in "Why sex with robots does not have appeal among women"

qdot76367 — Sun, 23 Feb 2025 21:53:29 +0000

Ugh, continuing the dialog of Levy, Pearson, and Realbotix, all of whom are violently overquoted at this point. Levy’s original thesis was boring and heteronormative when it was published almost 20 years ago, and is worse while not having been redeveloped at all now. Pearson is also well know for “women will implant ipods in their breasts” and what not, he’s the futurist you can get to say anything for a good daily mail quote. Realbotix basically exists to get press at CES and that’s about it.

Glad that the article does take the whole subject to task but I’m just kinda ready to move on to something more useful. It’s a continued media engagement over things that were vacuous to begin with.

(Granted I work in the industry so this is also a case of massive overexposure heh.)

There’s interesting stuff happening in sex tech, but sex with robots sure ain’t it.

Akili Interactive, who made the product this 2020 report is about, eventually SPAC’d their way public but ended up being sold off to private equity in March 2024.

I mod games to add buttplug.io support.

Most of my users seem to agree that yes, it is more reward than just playing the game.

> With repos titled "buttplug-rs-ffi" and “buttplug-xamarin-apps,” it seems like you're trying to make sure every platform knows just how much you care about "intimate hardware control," but really, are you just trying to make it impossible for anyone to look you in the eye?

> Keep doing you, Buttplug; just remember, the internet is forever, and so is that awkward curiosity about your profile!

This isn’t a roast, it’s just correct

Android Bluetooth is a constant nightmare for me as a basically solo open source developer. I really don't want to buy a bunch of phones to test, and remote hardware testing is $$$.
