Because opus 5.5 is no contest. It’s just better at coding.

Or rather, information architecture.
I might think to myself “I gotta tie my shoes” but it doesn’t mean I have to think of every step to do it.

I think about it quite often. Then it’s weird how many of the cities hosting them burned catastrophically, coincidentally.

How do you do this?

What’s this mcp oracle thing?

Cough, that’s what crypto markets are. Plus it incentivizes more gpu which is the life substrate.

What public stats say otherwise?
What are better defaults for 2026+?

It’s actually sad you’re downvoted. Oh well. Thanks for sharing an honest alternative.
Immediately my first thought as well. I still keep coming back to Erlang/Elixir/OTP as the best possible choice all things considered. I should use it more.

Thank you for sharing. I never played with Clojure before but I’m very intrigued by this repl driven workflow from an agentic perspective given it changed the nature and relationship to the program/code.

I’ll look into the links and mentioned programs. Thank you.

As someone who hasn’t felt that magic with a repl and LLM’s, how do you integrate the two? Does it have to be in emacs and every buffer is accessible by a LLM?
I mean? Many of them are…
This definitely happens. Perhaps more on a state actor level of sophistication but yeah. I’ve seen it. It’s wild.

You don’t have to trust the recommendations, you can analyze the reasoning behind their decisions and argue that. In this case the risk being at the engineering and hardware side and also denial of service. In addition to the trusted relays. Those are valid disputes.
Would love to learn more on how you do it. The various skills, tasks, workflow. If you have time and can share it. That would be valuable. :)

Erlang is a beautiful example of not having to deal with function coloring/creep. Any other language?
I think Erlang/Elixir is ripe for this.
Sorry can you expand on that? I have a Gemini subscription from a Google pro account but never used it much. I can use it with Claude Code?? Hmm. I’ll look it up. Thanks!

Cool project.
What’s the best local coding model these days?
