The adjustment is limited to a factor of 4 not 2.

How effective the cache is depends on how the client sends prompts. eg https://www.claudecodecamp.com/p/how-prompt-caching-actually-works-in-claude-code

But i think April/May had some big changes that made targeting anthropic's caching behaviour specifically make a big difference.

I've read that claude code uses context caching better/differently to generic clients which makes a massive difference to claude token usage. I also thought the detection stuff just switched you over to bonus usage even without your subscription being used up.

So flag it?

Wow, I meant to type debian-devel there. My tokens are too quantised.

Self host vs saas. "sudo su" might be worth following. https://x.com/i/status/2054118692657799345

My favourite bit is they'll argue with me about anything whenever I like. It's like bitcoin-dev or usenet in its heyday!

Sounds like a good way to deniably exfiltrate the ips of people working on stuff you might want to hack?

Sounds like you're writing end of chapter quizzes just like textbooks have?

"Why do people think X is going to impact Y"? Surely astrology is a sufficient counterexample to all questions of that type...

Seems like you of all people should be in a bubble where everyone's talking about payments and point of sale availability being key to unlocking exponential growth...

Sounds like the problem is you're listening to the wrong people? Billions "rushing" in is unlikely to happen, and even if it did its effects are likely to be mitigated by billions rushing out as earlier investors take profits. $42k to $70k in two years is also nothing to sneeze at.
