So far so good. I honestly didn't think using off the shelf LLMs would work.

People like to complain about the price of Macs, but I've always said that if you try to get the same hardware including the quality of the case, track pad, battery, etc. you're not going to find anything cheaper.

My personal machine is a first gen M1 Air and it's still fantastic.

I've seen more bugs in GitHub in the last 2 months than I have in the previous 13 years.

Mostly minor things, but still.

I don't know what it's like there, but I would be over the moon if that happened to me here in the US.

Follow me for more terrible investment advice! 😅

What I have Claude analyze:
⮕ Macro factors (interest rates, inflation, sector rotation)
⮕ Geopolitical risks/opportunities
⮕ Near-term catalysts (earnings, news flow)
⮕ 2-8 week price movements

Basically finding stocks positioned for current macro trends with upcoming catalysts

The approach:
⮕ Focus on swing trades (2-8 week holds)
⮕ Run multiple iterations with Claude until picks converge
⮕ Cross-check with ChatGPT deep research for validation

Currently in 2 gold ETFs, one just hit take-profit this morning, 3 completed trades so far

I don't even want to talk about how much I've spent on it. 😅 My company is ok with the cost though. I was only #4 last week & #5 this week.

I've been using Claude Code for:
・Navigating large codebases
・Creating robust multi-step plans
・Based on the plans, making bulk changes. I audit everything!

We moved to them from Recoil and they are really nice to use. I'm stoked to see them become part of the spec.

Holy shit this is awesome and I can't believe it is real. 🤣🤣

I really wish there was a good alternative. I know there are a couple but they are smaller than BSky by a long shot.

Where else are you going to find a dozen different hobbies rolled into one?
