My Claude limits ran out on Wednesday last week. They are weekly limits, and they normally reset on Sunday, so from Wednesday onwards there was not that much I could actually do.

After that came denial, anger, bargaining, the full set of stages. 🙃

And then I thought, listen, maybe **this is not a bug, it is a feature**. AI pushes me personally, and I see the whole world around me working so intensively right now that there is no time to rest even a little.

So maybe these limits are turning out to be more useful than harmful. 🙂

PS. A good thing AI might bring is a 3-day workweek. Hopefully.
