Same. Once in a while I end up on a screen share with someone and see that they have all these odd sized windows and they try to drag them around and resize them - drives me crazy!
I just found out today that hovering over the green traffic light icon shows an arrange menu... but the "maximize" option there leaves some padding on all sides of the window - weird.
I swear by https://rectangleapp.com/ - same outcome but with keyboard shortcuts instead of the mouse.
I use https://rectangleapp.com which has been a lifesaver. I only use the following three shortcuts and disable the rest:
cmd+option+f = maximize to fill entire screen
cmd+option+ctrl+left/right = move window to other monitor on left/right
I occasionally use cmd+option+left/right if I need to have two windows side-by-side on the same monitor.
MacOS window sizes have always felt weird to me - no easy way to maximize without making it go into full screen mode.
As I was writing this, I just realized that hovering on the green traffic light shows a menu to choose some window placement options.... not sure how I never realized this before, but even the "maximize" option there doesn't go all the way to the edges - weird.
The one time I was impressed with codex was when I was adding translations in a bunch of languages for a business document generation service. I used claude to do the initial work and cross checked with codex.
The codex agent ran for a long time and created and executed a bunch of python scripts (according to the output thinking text) to compare the translations and found a number of possible issues. I am not sure where the scripts were stored or executed, our project doesn't use python.
Then I fed the output of the issues codex found to claude for a second "opinion". Claude said that the feedback was obviously from someone that knew the native language very well and agreed with all the feedback.
I was really surprised at how long Codex was thinking and analyzing - probably 10 minutes. (This was ~1+mo ago, I don't recall exactly what model)
Claude is pretty decent IMO - amp code is better, but seems to burn through money pretty quick.
Same here. I lived there 30 years ago, and my one speeding ticket in TN shows up first. I've had 2 or 3 "rolling stop sign" tickets in CA and can not find them.
But other than not understanding the data, the UI looks really fancy.
