It's still the same thing, you can ask it to do a full on report give explanation and details be thorough and then go do something else, another task a lunch break whatever and it will be done when you're back

At 5 tokens per second and unknown prompt processing speed, you may need a very extra long lunch break depending on your codebase.

How do you maintain a flow state during a lunch break? I'm looping with Claude on a scale of minutes. While you're waiting, I'm iterating.

This is like comparing a hammer to a screwdriver and feeling smug because you can hammer nails faster than someone else can drive screws.

These are fundamentally different tools for entirely different applications. They only look similar to people who don't understand the tools or their purpose.

This thread started with me saying "we clearly have different goals" and then being told that I just need to hold the screwdriver differently...

You don't "maintain flow." You eat lunch.

I swear, tech culture has gotten people wanting to work for the machines, rather than the other way round.

This was a discussion about LLM usage patterns. I'm not opposed to lunch breaks. I'm opposed to being required to take the equivalent of 12 lunch breaks a day while I wait for slow responses.

Right? Tech should make my work easier. Not have me stressing out even more.

Let the machine do its work while I relax, I’ll check up on it later.
