After Anthropic doubled daily limits without proportionally increasing weekly limits, Rik hit 92% of his weekly Claude limit by Thursday, illustrating the frustration of power users.
Rik cancelled his $100/month Claude Max plan in real time, reallocating the spend to Cursor ($20), Codex ($20), Claude ($20), and xAI ($20). His logic: you don't need frontier models for most tasks, and diversifying across providers eliminates the frustration of hitting weekly token limits mid-week.
Rik cancelled his $100/month Claude Max subscription live on air, reallocating the spend across Cursor ($20), Codex ($20), Claude ($20), and xAI ($20), with $20 left for video generation.
An Anthropic researcher argued HTML is superior to Markdown for AI agent workflows — more visual, interactive, and human-readable. But Matt tested it and found HTML uses 5x more tokens per file.

Sam argues Discord is 10x better than email for building relationships with younger users who rarely check their inbox.
Sam's monthly operating costs include Cursor ($200), AI image generation ($100), AI video generation ($200), hosting ($100), email marketing ($80), and AI compute ($300–$500).
Sam recommends copying days of Discord chat history into ChatGPT and prompting it to list recurring pain points as a fast, free market research technique.
