Hacker News Reader

I have like 15 concurrent sessions I leave up for weeks, 50% Codex 50% Claude Code, even though I know they work better with fresh context. Then again I also always have least 200 browser tabs up. I probably just have a mental illness.

lol after reading your first sentence I literally thought to myself "this sounds like the type of person who never closes their browser tabs"

Most of the time it's when I want to go back and have a skill made for future reuse, but with remote control I've had some sessions open for remote diagnostics and it just works better than starting from scratch - even having lessons learned to create memories and update Claude.md.

I know it's wasteful but often I've got a surplus of tokens and not enough of my time - so it's a trade off I've been fine with.

I'd use it if I hit the 5 hour quota mid-change and then came back later in the day in a new terminal (depending on the input/output ratio of my now un-cached context, of course).

I spin up a lot of agents and don't always get back to them same day, so it helps a lot if my laptop restarts to install updates automatically.
