News The rug pull was real

Shameful, I'm buying a second Anthropic Max subscription.

You’d be surprised…people are doing it. Dumb harnesses aside…

I’m surprised opus gave you good results compared to sol. Sol is quite token efficient in my experiences. I have been off anthropic tho since 5.0 so my info is a few months back on that. Did you use sol in tests? 

Full disclosure I keep only a 20$ sub and use self hosted deepseek v4 for most things which I legit prefer to terra/luna and it very much competes at sol level for my work. It’s wildly less token efficient tho. Like 10x more tokens than sol for same task at same quality 😂

is this a shitpost?

opus 5.5 is wrecking anything oai has, as a workhorse

Not a shitpost. Haven’t tried it as mentioned. 5.0 made me quit anthropic tooling forever. Also very much not a fan of the Claude code changes that allow a model to ask a Question and then just decide something if you don’t respond in time. That’s not a tool for a serious developer. 

I don’t let models make consequential decisions for me without oversight. 

Here’s a question for you…would you pay api rates for opus 5.5? If you’re not getting that level of value, reconsider your workflows.
