I am completely out of usage capability until Weds night when my weekly use rate resets. In the interim, Fable 5 use got extended and I have outstanding compute I need to work on. Here's what I asked in Claude Chat where I still have limited use available, and here's what Sonnet replied with: why is anthropic trying to drive people away from using their ai's? I have tokens available on my max plan but no ability to use them as i've run out of weekly use. I get why this feels frustrating — you're paying for Max and hitting a wall anyway. Here's the actual reason, not a conspiracy: Max isn't a token allowance, it's a usage cap system. Even on Max, Anthropic runs two overlapping limits: a rolling 5-hour session cap and a separate weekly cap. Once you hit the weekly cap, it doesn't matter that your 5-hour window has room or that you "have tokens left" in some abstract sense — the weekly ceiling blocks you regardless. It's not about driving people away — it's compute rationing. Anthropic doesn't have infinite GPU capacity, so usage plans are structured to prevent a small number of heavy users from degrading service for everyone else. This is standard practice across LLM providers (OpenAI does the same with ChatGPT Plus/Pro). If anything, the trend this year has gone the other direction: Anthropic doubled the 5-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans on May 6, 2026, and removed the reduced limits that used to apply during peak hours. Then on May 13, weekly limits were raised by 50%, a promotion that's been running through July 13, 2026 — which is today, so it may be expiring or already reverted. One more thing worth knowing: Pro and Max usage is a single shared pool across Claude.ai chat and Claude Code — heavy use in one eats into the other. If you've been using both, that's likely why you burned through the weekly cap faster than expected. If you want the exact current numbers for your specific plan tier, I'd check your usage dashboard in-app (Settings), since exact quotas aren't published and vary by account. Want me to pull up Anthropic's current official docs on this instead of third-party summaries?

I’m interested in seeing what vibe coding tools are best. I think the best way to test this is with a group of 5 people. Here’s the idea We test 2-3 vibe code tools. We all sign up for them and complete the same project. I can provide a PRD for a simple website or application of our choosing. Nothing super difficult so everyone can do it. Then we use the same prompts as much as possible as we build through the applications on all 3 services and when complete we’ll have 15 versions of the same application. We can share the results on here and on our own networks to grow the channel and get some valuable insight into what worked. The 2 variables are the vibe coding tool and the individuals ability to produce via the tools. Adding 5 people and 3 tools creates enough variance for a simple test to see what’s best. If we market the results well we could even get the winning service to promote the content Let me know who’s interested and I’ll get us all connected

how hard would it be to recreate an app like sweat coin but instead of steps its taking pics of something? (i understand that doesn't make sense but i don't really want to put my idea all over the internet) thank you

When buying tokens on the Nous Portal be aware that unused tokens do not roll over to the next month. Each month starts at ZERO. My bots compared models and pricing between or OpenRouter and Nous and reported that the pricing is identical. Purchases on Open Router roll over at the end of each month so you don't start out at zero. You start out with whatever you had left at the end of the previous month. Post an update if this changes!
