Opus 5.5 praised for fast, eager completion: 'flow state' coding without dumb mistakes
dejavucoder · x · 2026-09-24

Beyond raw inference speed, he credits the model's appropriate eagerness: it finishes tasks properly, avoids dumb mistakes, and rarely asks unnecessary follow-up questions. A firsthand usage observation, without concrete task data.
