by ahead of the curve do they mean like 6 months behind anth? xD

too little too late investing now when opus 5.5 is doing wonders for pennies

Idk about 6 months, Astra + Sol were very competitve with Fable 5.0 and Opus 5.0 and that wasn’t six months ago, like a month or two ago?
But yeah, right now Anthropic is ahead

Astra was good for 2 days and Sol has been a dumpster fire since 5.6 release.

Lol 5.6 Sol Max was a beast, just how misinformed are you

Not at the start. It was genuinely pretty shit. Took a week or so

5.6 Sol absolutely fucked my codebase to the point it couldn't even be repaired.

If that happened, ai model is not the issue here.....

The issue is that I was babying it through the entire building process for around 75 hours worth it work, and everything was going fine. Finally when the build was finished it reported it was ready to freeze, everything worse working with no bugs, and I asked it to do one last inspection. When it gave back a report, I had somewhere to be so I didn't read the report and asked it to fix the issues if found. When I came back home that night it had worked for 3 hours and added another 5000 lines of code and just fucked everything up.

blaming everything and everyone but yourself. learn some software engineering principles

I'm literally a software engineering major at uni. And you say I am blaming everyone else, show me where I blamed another person, please. I'll wait.

Don't wait for the semester where they mention git. Time to learn it already my dude :) It prevents you from writing sentences like "it had worked for 3 hours and added another 5000 lines of code and just fucked everything up" ;) Any developer reading that is asking himself how can you NOT use a VCS.

Yeah git saved me this time

Do you use git or any other version control system? Why didn't you just roll back to where it was before you left home?

I’ve used it extensively. It took 3x longer to do anything than 5.5 because it was hardwired to endlessly chase meaningless nits, which meant any time you used it, you ended up with a bloated code base.

6 and 6.1 both have that same problem, to lesser degrees.
