OpenCode

Yes, although OpenCode works great with official Claude API keys that are on normal API pricing.

What Anthropic blocked is using OpenCode with the Claude "individual plans" (like the $20/month Pro or $100/month Max plan), which Anthropic intends to be used only with the Claude Code client.

OpenCode had implemented some basic client spoofing so that this was working, but Anthropic updated to a more sophisticated client fingerprinting scheme which blocked OpenCode from using this individual plans.


Protip for Mac people: If OpenCode looks weird in your terminal, you need to use a terminal app with truecolor support. It looks very janky on ANSI terminals but it's beautiful on truecolor.

I recommend Ghostty for Mac users. Alacritty probably works too.


Thank you for this comment! I knew it was something like this. I've been using it in the VSCode terminal, but you're right, the ANSI terminal just doesn't work. I wasn't quite sure why!

Is this still the case? Is Anthropic still not allowing access to OpenCode?

Officially, it's against TOS. I'm told you can still make it work by adding this to ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json but it risks a ban and you definitely shouldn't do it.

    "plugin": [
      "opencode-anthropic-auth@latest"
    ]
  }

Ah interesting. I have been using OpenCode more and more and I prefer it to Claude Code. I use OpenCode with Sonnet and/or Opus (among other models) with Bedrock, but paying metered rates for Opus is a way to go bankrupt fast!

Just like I shouldn't use an unofficial play store client, right? No one would ever do that.

Vast majority on X are silent observers just scrolling, liking and bookmarking.


This is likely true, but that is also true for other platforms. Like Threads that OP shared.


Since a few years ago, you need an account to view what account without a grey checkmark post. This includes realtime delay information from train companies, and outages/incidents from water companies. I know several people who only have accounts for one or both of these reasons, since that information isn't posted elsewhere or as quickly.

Without an account, you either get a single page of random popular tweets from that account or an erroneous message saying they haven't posted anything yet.


I switched over a year ago and all I can say is … it’s been excellent. $25/month per line is perfect and service is just as good as our Verizon postpaid.


Priorities vary across MVNO’s. I’m not an expert but I think USM is on the better end of that priority spectrum.


Good bot.


Normies that are upset with Windows will switch to macOS.

You guys are smoking crack if you think regular people are going Linux.


At this point, I’d just be happy they’re switching off windows out of spite.

I’ve never been a Windows hater like some people in the industry, and have actually enjoyed and appreciated some of the weirdness and quirks from an OS perspective. I’ve also known

But man this Win11 stuff feels so fucking extreme it’s ridiculous. No I won’t use your MS account. I’d have switched over to Linux or BSD if it wasn’t for games/niche hardware (yes, I know of proton, but this is an HN thread so my personal anecdotes override your evidence)


Regular people don’t even know to be annoyed/angered by the login stuff. This is nerd maxxxxxing.


First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they attack you. Then you win.

J/k, but I still love Linux and as a family it admin, people in my sphere get pushed there.


I like Linux too. But also I can read the room.


I largely fit that - switched to macOS after Windows 7. I'm put off Linux because I use Excel all the time.


Switching costs a thousand plus dollars, or you can install this on your existing machine.


If it were only about money, Linux would’ve taken over 20 years ago.


Good thing then no one implied it was only about money. But yes, saving a grand or two is very important to the vast majority of people.


My point is people will either stay on windows or switch to Mac. Switching to Linux will be rare for users whether they have money or not.


Until they get their act together, if ever, of course. Much of Linux looks and functions literally identical to how it did 20 years ago.


And that’s a great thing in general. Innovations like forced online accounts, spying, and hidden UI I want no part of.


I think it’s pretty bad faith of you to assume that what I meant by “the user experience hasn’t changed” is “doesn’t have horrible windows style malware in it”.


If all of the details in this post are to be believed, the vendor is repugnantly negligent for anything resembling customer respect, security and data privacy.

This company cannot be helped. They cannot be saved through knowledge.

See ya.


+1

Yes, even when you know what you're doing security incidents dan happen. And in those cases, your response to a vulnerable matters most.

The point is there are so many dumb mistakes and worrying design flaws that neglect and incompetence seems ample. Most likely they simply don't grasp what they're doing


insert I'm The Captain Now meme

My hot take is that we're in a forced reset period for employers to "re-assert" their control over the labor market. The macroeconomic factors frequently mentioned plus COVID-era policies of remote work/etc are over and the execs, corporations and broader financial markets are letting us know.

This stuff runs in cycles. Nearly everything does. Your guess is as good as mine when we've reached any top or bottom of the bear market. We'll see good times again in the future. Just stick with it.

Cling to yesteryear all you want. Just remember the ship has a new captain.


As much as I'd like to believe this isn't true...


Any conference recommendations? I'm tracking 2024 and 2025 software engineering conferences. There are still several marquee conferences before year end if that's your thing.
