🔥 Top post Me doing ML research in 2026 by passing notes between Codex and Claude Code. *switch to Codex's iTerm2 tab* › Thanks! Some notes from Claude: [...] (...wait...) *switch to Claude's iTerm 2 tab* › Thanks! Here's Codex's response: [...] ★ 40

Sure, walkable cities are great, but have you tried having a walkable DOG? Total game changer. ★ 6 One week later, I’ve upgraded my workflow: Before executing complex plans or code, Claude asks a codex subagent to review it. Then Claude keeps fixing and looping (without my input!) until codex approves. I can then focus on higher level… ★ 3 My Claude Max (x20) subscription isn’t just a subscription — it’s an epistemic status symbol. ★ 24 Me spotting typos in my NeurIPS AC meta-reviews, but deciding to leave them in to signal that yes, they're written by a human. ★ 3 I love Eugene, OR, but I wish they didn’t hate all development ever. Amazon distribution center near airport? RAGE! Industrial campus becoming a data center? PITCHFORKS! New housing with above-median rent? PROTEST! ★ 2 > GET FLASK This model's safeguards flagged this message. This sometimes happens with safe, normal conversations. Switched to Opus 4.8. ★ 6 Wow, the new ChatGPT desktop app sucks so much more than I realized at first. Web UI is ok. CLI is ok. Desktop app? May as well be BonziBuddy. ★ 3 Ok, it turns out that Fable likes to write docstrings first and implementations second. Except that sometimes it loses track of things and forgets to write the implementation... ★ 3 Fable, working on the 6th or 7th round of feedback on its plan: “Bank dedup now actually exists (Codex was right that I'd documented it without implementing it)” For shame, Fable! I expected more from you than this. I saw “AI fail” on the grocery list, but it turns out we’re just out of aluminum foil and I have bad handwriting. ★ 5 I wish ants could read so they’d understand that these bowls contain CAT food, not ANT food. Sadly, they cannot. ★ 8

🦋 Handle & authenticity

✅ Domain-verified

@lowd.cc

The handle is the domain lowd.cc. On Bluesky a domain handle proves the owner controls that website — so this is verifiably the real lowd.cc account, not an impersonator.
