What are the "stupid reasons"? Are they "regulations"?

Scotts point was that these brands have already declined, and that the only thing left is a very strongly loyal subscription base. That perked my ears up for sure.

No, because most model providers don't have an overt political agenda determined by one person. He literally promises to change specific political responses. Building on top of Grok will ultimately be as useful as buying TrumpCoin

The same critique of those points can be made which was in the article. The cost of switching is minimal. This isn't SAP or a CRM or some other business where workflow = moat.

Move fast and break things isn't a mantra that arose from first principles, it's literally all they know how to do

Unfortunately for boards and ceos, software engineers arent dumb. If they see your bottom line explode while their workload increases and their pay doesn't, they will not give you 10x. Honestly I'm surprised if people are even g

The model | The harness | The harness of the harness?!! This structure doesn't make any sense to me. It's like adding a half leather half shag wrap to your steering wheel. Not to mention the harness itself i

That is insane. I'm sure companies will learn the absolute wrong lesson from this, and attempt to centralize and kneecap token usage.

Just my personal pref with your roadmap, don't waste time on the electron app, I would never use it. A webapp definitely with OpenCode support big on the list as well.

100% second for OpenCode. for a lot of people it's becoming a very important second choice. I use it for cheaper models when my $20 claude code runs out for the day and I get a lot out of it.

I've actually come to believe the overwhelming majority of use cases require nowhere frontier quality so there's that. Much faster execution is just a bonus on top of the much reduced cost

Is it me? I feel like we are entering an era where it has become possible for one of the big companies to fail.

"Don't read to much into this. It's just a key talent, stable and productive, forming relationships with a key partner, gathering experience that you would think would be critical information to another companies valuation.&

Instagram runs on angular doesn't it? They make more money per user than the core FB product... You might want to revisit your criteria for your FAANG journey

Joseph Gordon-Leavitt really stands out, why would he be included here?

It's 100% unbelievable and hysterical that its true. Have they done the simple math on how much labeled data they need to make a model of value?

My favorite one is "NO ACCESS TO PRODUCTION DATA" "it's for agent" "do whatever you want"

This reads like a way to get engineers to quit while they work on something "useful". After losing Yann, I doubt its going to end up being useful.

If its any consolation, it doesn't work. Just from reading about the company and watching its business operating principles and innovation track record, its very clear what is going on inside - at least from someone with experience in

I can only imagine the unintended consequence of this whole fiasco will be for frontier providers to not provide future "warnings" about model capabilities in order to de risk earnings

We're in the Pets.com era of AI for sure. There is 0 guarantee the current providers will be around in 5-10 years. I keep thinking they will have to lean in to government protection to do so.

I think this is capturing the current need - solo vibe engineers that need structured task tracking. Since I pop between machines for various reasons, I tend to keep this info in the project itself, but an MCP server could go a long way.

How much are worktrees benefitting you? If I can describe the work so clearly that it can be done in parallel, I find Claude can typically one shot so parallel work isn't needed.

This might be greatest thing ever, especially if you have any experience with that culture.

Even at a quick glance this doesn't make any sense. The census is literally how they get the data. Where else would it come from? Drones? Every computer being hacked Michael Bay style?

The removal of his name is not performative since we're in the thick of a cult of personality president (at a bare minimum).
