alt Hacker News> And my god, $15 of extra credits ended up giving me only 30 minutes of Claude Code before running out.
I've been running into the same thing, and adding separate OpenAI seats for employees rather than paying obscene overages to Anthropic. Thankfully Opus has decreased usage quite a bit, and made this less of an issue as well.
Opus 5.5 is incredibly verbose compared to GPT 6.1. I mean substantially. They are both great generating the code I need. But I wonder how much more this extra vebosity costs me with Opus.
