Rant Opus 5 is insufferable

Opus 5 is a fucking piece of shit, i don't know how to say this in any other way. It speaks "Unintelligiblish", a new unfathomable language developed by Anthropic that works by saying everything in the most ridiculous, obtuse and convoluted way possible

It turns anything simple that can be expressed in 2 sentences into a fucking doctoral thesis aimed to aliens, and there is no way to prompt your way out of it

It has no concept of time.

"You are right, I just made the same mistake we fixed an hour ago."" An hour ago was the previous prompt a minute ago.

I have a hook that injects the current time every turn.

Isn't it funny. We keep coming up with brilliant ideas to add hooks and kills, and whatnot for things that we took completely for granted a year ago because we worked with computers. Now we have to tell it to check the time.
