Hey Anthropic - this is a pretty misleading asterisk given that Claude Code is quite a significant component of "Everything in Pro" Maybe put a much more obvious bullet point below saying "x Claude Code is excluded" instead of only at the bottom of the page.

So what worked for me is to run the right combination of gcloud auth login, gcloud auth application-default login, gcloud config set project and gcloud auth application-default set-quota-project commands. Oh, set GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT, and of course unset GEMINI_API_KEY. Trivial.

Anthropic staff realized they could ask Claude to buy things that weren’t just food & drink. After someone randomly decided to ask it to order a tungsten cube, Claude ended up with an inventory full of (as it put it) “specialty metal items” that it ended up selling at a loss.

You don't need privacy because the good guys are in charge and they will remain kind and benevolent always and they will keep you and your data safe from the Bad Guys tm

Refreshing to be back to a news cycle where headlines are all about celebrities I know nothing about doing things I don't care about. Hopefully it lasts.

Quitting programming as a career right now because of LLMs would be like quitting carpentry as a career thanks to the invention of the table saw.

I'm not only tired of reading connecting ideas separated by an em-dash that don't quite connect — I'm frustrated by disjointed thoughts.
