Claude recently lets you top up with manual credits right in the web interface - it would be interesting if these were allowed to top up and unlock the max plans.

When you run out of quota it presents you with options to stop, upgrade -- or I added a third option in this blog to connect to a local model until your quota resets: https://boxc.net/blog/2026/claude-code-connecting-to-local-m...

Sometimes quality is worth it over quantity of users.

The free to paid user ratio of both services is worth seeing too.

Personally I find both are growing cleanly into their own areas of strengths and that's actually a good thing because it provides more coverage for solutions.


As much as people are trying to find a standard for agents as a platform or a winner take all, the area itself is still growing and emerging.

The source of it is instructions, most often in text.

Managing how that text relates to the journey of the ultimate result is a new area, while there are pockets of helpful tools and libraries, their relevance can come and go quickly as models can improve just as fast, sometimes maybe even taking inspiration from what the community is working on and then adding that capability to the model.


No one might have lost their money with the collapse of the banks but with the large amount of new money printed, the value of each dollar will continue to erode.

Inflation and hyper-inflation can wipe out debts with future money that's cheaper more easily in some ways. I forget where I had read or learned more about this in other countries that had experienced it.


Exploring the simplest version of this - I wonder if stablecoins are cheaper / easier to financially to transfer that much money.

Indirectly it might provide some more public visibility initally anyways.


I'm not sure datacenters in space have to make suense to everyone, or from the perspective of earth.

Taking a creative step back, perhaps datacenters in space support something with Mars?

As much as that might not seem realistic, I also have to counterbalance it with operationalizing and commercializing SpaceX, Starlink and Tesla relatively quickly when so much stays at the R&D stage for so long.


The concerning thing is how lead, arsenic are being found in things they are not reported in or labelled as being safe.

I wonder how big a factor this is in creating podcast bros/tech bros. Is there actually a pipeline from 'get guy to start working out' to becoming a dumb bro?

Seems to be a regularish occurrence far beyond the podcast/tech crowd in many areas.

Blind doubting of things can be as bad as blindly believing they're safe, if we don't know who's, or if anyone is keeping the safety honest. Capitalism can too often lean towards optimizing profit.

Testing for lead, etc can be done independently pretty easily and consistently enough to get a statistically high enough correlation of what's going on.

I get the stereotypes - but consuming anything in an unbalanced way will lead to being out of balance. Food, caffiene, alcohol, supplements.


Neat tool.

Prolificity (ooh, invented word?) could be more than quantity of words, maybe quality too?


Knowing how they work can be useful when imagining machinations of an algorithm and if the code is really necessary to do all the steps that way. :)

Temporarily see if you can put the blog behind a cloudflare or something using their DNS service.
