I didn't know about this limitation from openrouter, and I thought plenty of users were using it to quickly switch as needed without incurring such a penalty. Why does there seem to be so many users then? Are some folks just fine payin

I think you're referring to covered calls, but you can sell naked calls as well, meaning without owning the underlying.

Regarding the multi-tasking induced by this new way of working (agentic coding), I've moved from quick and short iterations to a longer ideally one-shot prompt, optimizing for less reviewing and less context switching. I used to send a

Both of these are wrong. Non-EU means it's harder to get a permit, especially without working experience, but it's not impossible either. Housing is difficult in cities like Zurich but calling it impossible is stretching it, espec

I would try to learn some new tech. Definitely not something you can do in a vacuum with no goal for months in a corporate setting, but e.g. learning more about a programming language you already use, or some libraries, some tooling, you ca

Not sure what you mean by spec and design, but around me, that's always been paid more than simply coding. If you have a clean technical spec that's detailed enough, the code naturally flows and is often left to more junior engine

On which operating system? That wouldn't surprise me on Android, a bit more on other platforms (and worth filing an issue).

Same here, music is too important for me to give up this kind of control. I probably miss out on the discovery system of streaming services, but there are enough other sources (e.g. radio paradise).

I sure envy you if this qualifies as "catastrophic", because hard drive can and do fail.

If "things go catastrophic" your hard drive is not usable at all anymore. At the very least some files can't be recovered at all. So you need backups in any case. Once you have backups, you might as well encrypt your hard dri

Nobody cares about costs until they pay them themselves. Regarding code quality and tech debt, it's sensible not to care if it doesn't lead to anything observable. Do you really care of some "bad" code somewhere that has

I don't follow why you'd run uncommitted non-reviewed code outside of the sandbox (by sandbox I'm meaning something as secure as a VM) you use. My mental model is more that you no longer compile / run code outside of the

As a passenger, I really notice the difference, and I wish more drivers (including professionals) would learn as you did. It probably saves energy as well, especially when driving in cities, although I guess it's marginal.

This is even more relevant in the context of generated code, where most of the time is spent reviewing rather than writing the code. Abstractions, by allowing the code to be more concise, help. With LLM code, I'd rather have higher-lev
