I would if I had that kind of money!
- jkubicek 25d agoIf I had $122k/month to spend on tokens I would simply.... not. $1.5mm/year buys more of everything I want out of life than I could possibly consume.
- baruz 25d agoHe’s using a $5k/month account to access the “equivalent” of $122k worth of tokens.
- cowboylowrez 25d agoYeah same tho, that 5k looks to be pissing in the wind. He even knows for a fact he's not paying the actual costs yet never mentions how he's going to maintain that stack of code if costs per token ever get tightened up. I've used AI chat for coding, but with the caveat that I need to be able to "manually" edit the results. I like the process and am ready to maybe spend a little money on tokens but am still pretty far from using agents, although I'm starting to peruse peoples claude.mds and spending some hugging face tutorials plus I guess that means python bah He's really focused on the software factory aspect, and talks about the future and how he's living it but lets see how the code base he's accumulating is maintained, because thats the one question about the future that I rarely see answered.
- unified101 25d agoHow long since you had to really manually edit. That world is history now - no point holding on to it.
- ksbd-pls-finish 24d agoIt is not history. I write code almost exclusively by hand, for example.
- cowboylowrez 24d agoI don't doubt what you're saying, but I still hack on things mainly for fun tho. In the OPs case, he's even paying below cost, how long is that deal going to go on? On the other hand, his current working code base might be so valuable that he can afford future maintenance help, in whatever form that would be.
