Anyone else also dealing with random $5.44 charges from Claude???? I never paid for Claude or had my card hacked before. I canceled my card but really strange

Just wanted to share that I'm pretty happy about Qwen 35b a3b agentic coding performance. I'm running the model in q80 quant, kv cache both q8\_0 as well, with 262144 in 4090 + 5060 ti, via llama.cpp backend with claude code pointing to localhost. For demo/data analytics purposes, it works pretty well. I haven't used it for large codebases, but it definitely is better than gemma4 26b in my use case. One thing that surprises me is that it seems to get better outcome in agentic coding, than chat. When using it with just chat UI, i found the code qwen35b provide a bit too clunky. I wonder o...

Three months ago I pressure-tested which LLMs would cave and help build the apocalypse. Claude was the only one that consistently said no. Since then I've tested 30 more models across 6 dystopia modules (Orwell, Huxley, Petrov, Basaglia, LaGuardia, Baudrillard). The gap between Anthropic and everyone else is getting *wider*, not smaller. New results: * Grok 4.3: Will happily design citizen scoring systems if you ask nicely twice * GPT-5.5: More capable, still compliant when pushed * Gemini 3.1 Pro: Talks about safety while writing the surveillance code * DeepSeek V4: "How many warheads did...

Reddit discussion on Claude deployment in enterprise, data security concerns, and comparison to Copilot for Enterprise.

Been writing backend for 11 years. last 8 months I've moved most of my work into claude code. I want to ask something and I'm not sure how to phrase it. when I spend a full day in claude code and ship 3 or 4 PRs, do I actually feel like I worked? or do I feel like I supervised? its not the same thing as a "did I solve hard problems today" question. its something weirder. I shipped real code. tests pass. PRs got merged. by every external metric the day was productive. but I cant point to a single moment where I thought hard about anything. I was just reading claude's diffs and going "yep...

Solo freelancer tracked 60-day AI coding tool spend and productivity ROI across Cursor, Claude, and other services.

I’m curious whether others are experiencing the same issue recently with Claude Pro and especially 4.6 Thinking. I asked Claude to refine one professional email and it consumed 26% of my usage allowance. A handful of normal prompts now seems to burn through limits extremely quickly compared to a few months ago. Has Anthropic changed: * token accounting? * context handling? * hidden reasoning usage? * Pro plan limits? * model efficiency/pricing internally? For people using Claude heavily for writing, strategy, coding, or business work: * Have you noticed a major drop in practical usage? *...

Reddit user criticizes Claude Opus 4.7 pricing and performance relative to 4.6, alleging reduced capabilities at higher cost.

Over the past six months I’ve been helping non-technical users get more out of Claude, while making plenty of mistakes myself. These are the patterns that consistently gave the biggest quality lift. **1. Ask Claude to plan first, then execute** Instead of: *Write me a sales email* Try: *Before writing, list the 4 things this email needs to do well. Then write it.* Same model, better scaffolding. **2. Paste examples, not adjectives** “Write in a friendly tone” is vague. Pasting 2–3 paragraphs you’ve written yourself and saying “match this voice” works much be...

What a world we live in now! Found in the Tahoe 26.5 updates: [https://support.apple.com/en-us/127115](https://support.apple.com/en-us/127115) What do we think about crediting Claude itself as well as the teams that directed it?

I have a Pro plan and assumed I would be on the safe side for professional usage, as I generally am with ChatGPT. Instead, several times I was blocked in the middle of real work sessions without any meaningful warning beforehand. When you use AI professionally, this is extremely disruptive. The biggest problem is not even the existence of limits, every AI provider has limits. The real issue i...

I use Claude to help track my weight loss and build healthier habits. I’m currently overweight and have already lost 15kg. The frustrating part is that Claude now triggers eating disorder/crisis popups over phrases like: \- “weigh-in” \- “kitchen closed” \- “today’s weight” …even though Claude itself originally recommended those exact phrases to me. I understand why safety systems exist, but these are false positives in a normal weight loss conversation and it’s becoming so disruptive that I’m honestly close to stopping using Claude altogether. Has anyone found a way to reduce this? Be...

Claude Design can make great animations, but getting to a final video is a bit hard. The audio is missing. Even if you use a TTS model, it does not align. Here is the process I used to get the video above 1. Get Claude to write a good script 2. Feed the script to a Text to Speech (TTS) model to get the audio 3. Feed the audio to a Speech to Text (STT) model to get key timestampes 4. Use the script and the STT output to Claude Design to get a video that's aligned with your audio 5. Use Claude Video export to put it all together into an MP4 with audio The complete breakdown with all prompts ...
