@lain I'm pretty skeptical of the quality of a place with people that only just learned programming on the job and using claude code no matter what he says

@sun i thought only of the guys on his team learned coding on the job. did i misread?

@lain yeah you're right he didn't say everybody.

he's not full of shit, I can confirm everything he said about working with claude code except I can't imagine only spending 50 dollars a month, I can burn through that in a day

@sun yeah that seemed very low to me too.

@lain Elixir costs a lot more than html/javascript. Running it on pleroma I can spend two or three bucks pretty quick

@sun i'm thinking about getting that pro plan or whatever that includes near-unlimited claude code

@lain @sun how much is it?

@arcana @lain I didn't see it there. I burn through a lot in Claude Code so it might be worth it for me too

@arcana @lain Looks like 200 per month. That's an awful lot, but at my current usage that would be saving me money.

@lain @sun $200 a month isn’t bad if you’re productive, you can put it down as a business expense too

@arcana @sun yeah if you actually make money with it it's a no brainer

@sun @lain RIP the entire software QA profession, turning into AI proofreaders

@lain @sun what’s the verdict on Claude Code vs Cursor currently?

@arcana @sun both are very good, but claude is better, more agentic.

@lain @arcana I'm not making money right now but since March I've spent about 800 dollars using it lol

@lain @arcana I've heard very good things about Gemini agent in Cursor but it only supports certain languages. I was told it's a lot less likely to go off changing things you didn't ask for, which Claude does all the time.

@sun @arcana @lain you should try gambling

@david @arcana @lain I do cryptocurrency too

@lain @sun If either of you pick it up please post about it after you spend some time with the pro plan. I am very curious

@david @lain @sun I don’t really gamble out of principle but I turned 2k into 15k in a game of Texas Hold ‘em Poker which was fun

@rain @lain I couldn't figure out how to upgrade it in the menu and so I asked claude and claude isn't aware it has a max tier

@rain @lain it's just /upgrade on their site but it kept redirecting to the query screen lol, I finally got it to show me the upgrade menu.

@lain @rain I just upgraded to Max
