Thats not cheaper than paying a subscription. In fact this is at least 3x-10x more expensive.

And this is comparing to being subscribed many years in a row. With SaaS you can unsub and sub only when you need it again.

With your side project - a weekend of your life is invested and you will never get it back.

This is the worst use of your time if you measure it in $. If you make it for fun - sure. In all other terms it is a complete loss.

$20 claude code subscription for a month can replace the $15 + $10 for each month. How is that 3x more espensive? The user just saved $280 per year, on just two subscriptions alone.

Hardly doubt that this was the 'most waste of ones time'. For one, it's not like most of us can decide to "work" for 3-5 hours on a Saturday and get any money. I play games on my pc while claude codes for me. I alt tab each few minutes and see if it needs any input. Then I can (not that I do it), read and perhaps learn from the code.

Yup. thats more expensive because each hour of your time is at least 50USD And each hour on weekend that you would have spent with your family etc is probably 500-1000 usd at least, so yeah, it is much cheaper to pay 15 usd for SaaS
