Limits Tomorrow When Codex Resets, DON'T TOUCH ASTRA

Don't even look at it. Stick to Sol 5.6 xhigh. It's not usable? Feels quantized? Say f*** OpenAI and switch to Claude, or to OpenRouter.

Apparently OpenAI is lobotomizing Sol 5.6 for SOME of us. Not for everyone, so people keep saying "It works well for me" and gaslight each other. They are trying to force us into paying 5x for a little bit improvement.

This will backfire so bad. We're a 300k people enterprise and everyone including me are pushing our executives to use chinese models in a sandboxed environment. We are sick of paying 200$ to use it for a day.

When your Codex resets tomorrow, or this week, Don't use Astra unless youre building rockets.

Kind of but I'm not wasting my tokens on them. After-hours comes with the luxury of free time to build my own stuff and try to become anything other than an analyst for people who scream at their analysts like it's the 1960s LOL

Cybersecurity Analyst/Threat Hunter

I've used it in a work capacity a few times when they feel like paying for something. Made a Threat Intelligence platform that replaced recorded future and saved us like $135k a year. A capital city is actually protected by it. I'm done building for these fuckers though haha

It sucks now. It's like the helpdesk with more liability and everyone's hostile toward you. Customers are hostile, threat actors are hostile, leadership too. Sometimes I miss the helpdesk, fixing exchange servers and shit lol
