Yeah I go back and forth using more or less sessions. Was always a fan of kanban, less WIP better, but some sessions are just slow so I end up starting new ones.

Now I'm spinning up more Claude code sessions (5-10), each with often 1-3 subagents going, as well as using chrome with playwright of claude-in-chrome for debugging/QA/styling.

That combination has really been slowing down my computer lately. I get it, it's a lot of processes and a lot of chrome. I don't like the cloud coding agents cause I often want it to use my own cookies in my browser, or other secrets/setup I've got locally

Curious if anyone else has these issues, and what you're using. Obviously it'd be nice to upgrade to an m5 with 24 or 48gb but that's 4k AUD (or 3200 with trade-in)

You've probably talked about this before, but with AI speeding up product "delivery" (especially prototypes), what changes have you seen to the lean startup methodology? Is it possible to supercharge the build measure learn loop?

And what good uses for AI have you seen to keep teams "building things people want"?

Haven't heard about since ages ago when it was extremely slow

I usually have 5-10 sessions open so am used to getting some investigations going, coming back 5 minutes later and checking recommendations. This time I just got the fixes. Like I said, so far so good with the results, but it's a mental model shift.

Might need to tune claude.mds if it gets annoying

Also this is going to cause serious whiplash when they remove it from the subscription plan in a couple of weeks. I know I'm not going to suddenly move from $200/m to usage credits

to me ladder pulling would be:

- web scraping for model training becomes illegal, with heavy punitive penalties

- training models above a certain compute threshold requires government licensing

- expensive third-party audits are required before deploying models above a capability threshold

to be clear, I'm not saying what they did in scraping to learn was ethical. It wasn't. But I just don't see it as pulling the ladder. The ladder is still there.

if it's 99.9% comparable performance for less money I'm interested, but I'm skeptical it's there

the relationship should be the opposite, the smartest people can write the most readable solutions

edit: nvm was just my library network

but it doesn't match the archetype of a "growth" company. to the commenters talking about the share price, if you want a consistently growing stock, that's not the way to do it (not saying it's right or wrong)
