Someone said that they feel Claude Code (Directly with Anthropic) works better than Claude Sonnet 4.5 through Github Co-pilot - they said that Sonnet 4.5 through copilot feels like a nerfed version. Has any one else felt the same?

They used AI to build that blog post ..!
Me: so what? How stupid will you look if you said -
They used WordPress to build that site.
They used Photoshop to build that graphic, figma to design UI for that app.

Thanks to #TATA to take over #AirIndia. My trip from Bali to New Delhi has been a wonderful and amazing!
Everything was awesome! The fact that they are using #Vistara takeover to improve the international flight experience is a masterstroke.
And the complimentary inflight wifi was a cherry on top.

I am not a Trump or Elon musk supporter but clearly it wasn't the Nazi salute.
And let's assume that it was, then he literally did it on purpose (I still think he didn't) to trigger some idiots who are easily triggered by people even breathing.

2025 is a perfect square:
45² = 2025
This will happen again in 2116.
It's also the sum of the cubes of all single digit numbers:
0³ + 1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ + 5³ + 6³ + 7³ + 8³ + 9³ = 2025.
45² = 2025

Something interesting you might not have realized: a number of words in English are nouns when you stress the first syllable but verbs when you stress the second.
"Your CONduct is better when you conDUCT yourself appropriately.”

That's my buddy who left me 2 years ago. Google photos just gave me a blast of the past and I am glad they did.
This was a thing that Tedu did. He would want to play the fetch without letting me get the ball 😂 I miss him a lot but I know he is in a better place!

So we all know that the holidays are coming and miscreants are trying to use rather misuse technology and trap people who struggle with technology. Just got a text saying that Amazon will refund money but it clearly was a spam and a stupid attempt at phishing.
Please be safe!
