Codex has been the perfect tool
inerte on Hacker News
80% of the time I ask Claude Code a question, it kinda assumes I am asking because I disagree with something it said
In the thread “Shall I implement it? No”
Helped: Codex follows strict orders and maintains large context.
Got in the way: Claude Code freestyles and assumes disagreement.
… Codex, on the other hand, will follow something I said pages and pages ago, and because it has a much larger context window (at least with the setup I have here at work), it's just better at following orders. With this project I am doing, because I want to be more strict (it's a new programming language), Codex has been the perfect tool. I am mostly using Claude Code when I don't care so much about the end result, or it's a very, very small or very, very new project.
