There are 4 weeks in a month.

4 periods of weekly limits, is a monthly limit.

I do believe it's unreasonable. The limits are the limits, you reach them there's no more free lunch after.

Fix the limits, so the limits are reached at a rate that sustains their business.. ? obviously this WILL happen eventually when they need to pay for things.

these subscriptions have limits.. how could someone use $200 worth on $20/month.. is that not the issue with the limits they set on a $20 plan, and couldn't a claude code user use that same $200 worth on $20/month? (and how do i do this?)

Is there any limits to that users 200/month? Why should they not be able to use the limits to the extent from other tools?

If openclaw chews my 200/month up in 15 days... I don't get more requests for free

The secret is there is no path on making that back.

That why they need widen the moat; it appears not giving us access to hardware might be that moat.

They desperately need LLMs to stay rentier and hardware advances are a direct attack on their model.

“If it was up to Stephen [Miller], there would only be 100 million people in this country, and they would all look like him.”

To accomplish things like that, a lot of us are going to be removed. I don't think these are jokes, it's a pattern of statements to condition and normalize. A thing he has done over and over.

It's the servers specifically the parallelization with more cores and better math functions like AVX512.

We won't ever see a 2008 style price drop again. My house was going for $399K before I bought it in 2011 for $199K @ <4%.

Unfortunately we got lucky, the big players in REO weren't ready to 'close' that many packages last time. My first devops role was at a company that was working with big players to make sure next time this exact scenario presented itself the big guys will be able to deploy their cash to gobble these things up.
