so weird to watch the anti-ai mob continually turn inward and attack people who agree with them on increasingly fine differences of opinion. wonder what's up with that.
you know I hate to admit it but openai is kinda cooking these days at least with agentic coding. 5.5 just does the thing without getting stressed like 4.7/4.8 seem to.
