Really don't like that they claim this as it's not true in the literal sense: you loose any included credit with third party models like Claude. Which for folks like me who love Grok but also love using other company models to review things, is a big deal. Be honest.

By that I mean if you use ANY third party model you have to pay extra per token. Nothing included.

Jokes on them. I remember the last time I wrote alert("fuck you") for IE5 and accidentally shipped it to prod.

one day you wrote console.log("here") for the last time and didn't even know it

So Grok Bot is actually pretty sick, even if it's not yet something I use daily. It's done a few tasks for me, but the most noteworthy is it rearranged all my streaming service subscription plans so that I maximize CC statement credits. Saving $380/year plus now I get Hulu too.

Basically it found that by switching some of the streaming plans to monthly instead of annual, and by utilizing promotions like free Walmart+ subscription that includes Peacock for free too, I better utilize the various CC perks I get.

We keep improving performance across Claude, and you may have noticed it starts responding sooner! Claude Code now gzips the conversation it sends on every turn, so it reaches the model faster. Cloud sessions also start up as soon as you start typing.

Goose: my latest programming language. Safer, faster and less memory than Rust/C++ for algorithms where tightly packed, flat data structures matter. It can represent more kinds of data structures as flat, pointer-free bytes than any language I know. github.com/aardappel/goose 1/

Someone used AI to create open source copies of Adobe Creative Suite apps like Photoshop et al in Rust. Best of all they're not only available as native desktop apps but you can also download them as WebAssembly apps and run it in your browser instead if you're worried about security. It also has a CLI and MCPs. getartcraft.com/apps

Blows my mind that YouTube puts 3x playback speed behind a paywall when it's literally built into browsers, they just prevent you from using it from the UI. You can pop open Chrome Dev Tools, find the <video> tag, and set playbackRate = 3 for free.

Kudos to @suno customer service. I could have swore I canceled my yearly sub last year--I remember going through the flow and everything--but it renewed anyway. Emailed their support and they refunded me.

Who knows if it was a bug or it wouldn't surprise me if I didn't make it to the actual last step cause it's one of those multi-step cancelation flows, but the fact that they refunded without a fuss left me definitely feeling like when I have more time to devote to music I'll come back!

Still early but, as my daily driver, thus far it feels like Grok 4.7 is a step backwards from 4.6 and 4.6 was a step backwards from 4.5. So strange. Hoping I'm wrong. I've been using 4.6 enough now that, at least for my use cases, I'm confident it was vs. 4.5

4.7, FOR ME MIND YOU, seems to be skipping very obvious things. Taking shortcuts and half-assing things. It reminds me of why I needed Plan Mode. Which I know flies in the face of what they've *said*, but thus far my experience.

Pure speculation but maybe their drive to try and beat the other top models led to it not being as great of a daily driver; maybe it's better on paper at some things but in practice not good enough to use as the daily driver. I expect my daily driver to do tasks that aren't particularly hard, but aren't just trivial either. 4.5 seems like it's better at that, thus far. Will give 4.7 another couple weeks then switch back to 4.5 if that pattern holds. I was *very* happy with 4.5 as a daily driver. Again, emphasizing this is all highly unscientific. It could just be coincidence.
