    anybody notice this new thing with claude where it will generate your code, not give it to you and then your time is up for 4 hrs.

    then later you ask for the code and i'm sure it burns tokens again.

    This is known as rate limiting, and it's one of the ways they make money.. They have tiers of usage, and they do that to get people to pay more. This isn't a new tactic..

    I had it do something similar once. I learned to check my session time
    before asking for anything too complicated and, if the time already used is pretty high, I hold off and ask later after it resets.


    ... Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
