Codex is incredible at writing code, but soo bad at almost everything else.

It writes some code.

Me: β€œErr… I don’t get it. Can you explain?”

Codex: β€œSure.”

Then it proceeds to explain the code… with more code.

Me: β€œNo worries, Codex. I’ll ask Claude instead. Thanks for the hieroglyphics tho” πŸ˜‚

Go slow, to go fast. I feel like I have to repeat this to myself multiple times a day.

β€œI’m honestly not sure how plan mode handles this. The concern is valid β€” if the planning phase and execution phase don’t share the same context, the executor might not know to update beads status.” - Claude (Opus 4.6)

β€œI’m honestly not sure…”. I’ve never been this happy to get a rejection. 😍

Unpopular opinion: Codex 5.2 x-high beats Opus 4.5, at least for Rust πŸ¦€.

That said, Claude Code is still better overall for development. The broader agentic setup, tool calling, skills, and workflow integration, adds real leverage and elevates Anthropic’s models beyond raw coding ability.

I might be in the minority, but I think the curated Pulse in ChatGPT is phenomenal. I’ve almost made it a daily habit to check it.

Funny how prefix sums actually feel satisfying when you run into a real use case for them. I originally learned the pattern just to survive interviews and LeetCode, but using it for an actual problem made it finally click.

Claude Code is my daily driver, but I’ve been finding myself using Codex more often for slightly more complex tasks. I had also been using Cursor for PR reviews in my GitHub workflow with about a 60% success rate, whereas Codex is closer to 90%. Pretty impressive!
