I only use Claude Code, not the web UI. The window seems to start at first use, but I haven't noticed any problems with this. I tend to write "hi" to Claude first thing in the morning just to get my first 5-hour limit going,

The average rating (status-mood) is unclear imo. Right now it shows "Struggling (40%)" for ChatGPT and "Mid (15%)" for Claude. This suggests that ChatGPT is doing better than Claude (based on the percentage number), when

Ah thats interesting. I only use Claude Code right now and don't have anything in that section you mention. Wonder how/when its applied and if it is also applied to CC...

I'm having good results with similar stuff, but not sure about the best approach. What exactly do you mean by "your global settings"? Do you have a global CLAUDE.md file? Or do you do this via the UserPromptSubmit hook and

Oh, yea I misread that a bit and my "no idea" doesn't really fit there. I agree with your point that the government generally doesn't trust me to pay at some point in the future. Blocking the ownership transfer for a cor

> Pay taxes as if you had sold, even if you keep ownership. Which if you think about it, makes some sense. It does make some sense, yea. The draconic thing is taxing you on a fictitious sale. I wouldn't have a problem with it if it

Lindner was forced to do it. FDP has been under the 5% barrier in polls for months now, down from 11,4%. If they stayed in the coalition until the next regular election, they would most likely not even get into parliament again. At least wi

As another German, I fully agree about the political landscape in Germany being FUBAR. I'm an entrepreneur with a small business and the FDP is closest to my personal views in theory. In reality, they are just a bit lighter shade of gr

We've been hearing this for years. At this point it seems like the classic "debt cycles" are broken and nothing will ever happen about it. See latest student loan relief shenanigans. You need to borrow as much as you can and

Germany's solution for everything is more regulation. It works wonderfully so far, so this will definitely contribute to further economic growth. Wir schaffen das! Has the term "privacy washing" been coined already?

She certainly didn't have a total tax rate of 40% with an entry level job. Maybe a marginal tax rate of 40% for a very small top percentage of her income. You need an income of around 180k€/year to pay 40% total tax rate. That is

Yes, more taxes will solve all the problems. /s The solution is making government significantly smaller, more efficient and stop handing out all kinds of subsidies, welfare payments and other transfers. Let the economy breath again.

Mixed-use is a whole different animal. This is more about short-term rentals like AirBnb or empty second/n-th homes. These create a shortage on the housing market for the local workforce. Not much benefit in having walkable communities

I believe the parent was referring to short-term rentals. If a single family home is rented short-term through AirBnb, that certainly does not satisfy the primary use as a residence, as nobody actually has residence there.

Why is pushing everyone into recession not a good way of doing it? Recessions are healthy for the economy. We need double digit interest rates for ~5-10 years to clean up the past mismanagement. The longer we delay this, the more painful it

Prices will go further up when interest rates go down. Interest rates haven't been raised enough to reign in inflation.
