the world is so screwed

so my gen-z coworkers i noticed they say words wrong all the time or they'll mix up 2 similar sounding words is this a thing

engineers bias towards conservative approaches to business everyone loved when dario said he didn't want to overinvest because if he was wrong the whole business would die but you look at a lot successful companies and at some point they had to make the all or nothing bet

it is very hard to be both a platform and a product company it feels ok to compete with your users a little bit but you eventually run into problems you never could imagine ahead of time

how much can you jack up your salary if you quit cloudflare and join vercel and then quit vercel and join cloudflare in a loop

i've never ever seen a good external analysis of big startups so many writeups about openai or anthropic and all of them are basically entirely wrong happens with every generation of companies, why do people waste their time on producing this stuff

there are like 5 people in tech that understand marketing and of those 5 probably 0 have actually pulled it off, they just understand it correctly and are trying the right things so it's funny to see all the takes on TBQN acquisition, every single person is wrong

why has no one vibed up really good local otel tooling i want to be able to look at all these traces during local dev

some thoughts on figuring out how to keep producing good work

idk how people manage infrastructure anymore every service has their own bespoke cli / config file and they don't support terraform well anymore your system is never just one provider so do people just have a mess of these smashed together?

the amount of misinformation out there is crazy right now you can see this with the cc leak - people point their llm at it and it tells them some bullshit and they post about it with extreme confidence this is happening everywhere, impossible to keep up with and correct

there's always people arguing that most people can't notice quality to rationalize infinitely cutting corners they might not be able to articulate why but people can definitely feel when something is great

what if we gave you unlimited tokens for free and we also paid you

the hardest part about having a remote team is you can't hit your employees

1 month later 6,500,000 monthly actives

we will NOT be participating in the pagan holiday of april fools a day devoted to to ritualized deception and spiritual corrosion opens a pathway for the devil to do his work

you're going through the claude code source when the real action is going down at github/dmca

working on a new project and once again i do not understand how people use agents at the start of the project i didn't even think to, just naturally went around defining interfaces to think through what i'm doing agent comes later

claude code source is 512K lines opencode is 118K we're getting LOC mogged

do ai bots respond to posts with obscenities in it like if we end each post with fuck bitch asshole fuck will they still reply

people often ask if OpenCode Go will have a higher tier than $10/month we'd like to but let me explain what makes this complicated subscription plans need to offer more than spending the same amount on pay per token 1/4

we see a lot conspiracy theories claiming models on OpenCode Go ($10 plan) are served differently we're using the exact same providers you use when you go direct all providers are constantly tweaking things and sometimes there are bugs but it's pretty minor

if you're working on making something cool accessible to more people there will be a crowd of people who absolutely hate you

we all live in a big ecosystem that all feeds into each other - frontier labs push the bar on what's possible - opensource labs build off of that and make their own discoveries - inference providers make huge capex investments to serve these models 1/3

man you guys already got to all the good domains and npm packages and you don't do anything with em

am i the only one still on Xorg

right now everything in the world is telling you to go faster, ship more, add that feature, start another project so i'm actively working on feeling ok not doing any of that

every time i look in discord

he's on his way to a full recovery!

if you are high up at a company you probably miss the days when you coded and shipped features you feel a crazy amount of exuberance now that coding agents return some of that back to you it's a huge mistake to think this is somehow relevant to people working day to day

everyone made a big commotion about skills, a bunch of secondary tooling got built, standards got established and the majority of users have never installed a skill i wish everyone would chill out, most ideas are bad, restraint is more important than ever

is it legal to make your employee get a neuralink

there's a lot of new products right now that are all competitive with each other and at the surface they all roughly look the same but if you zoom in man some of these teams are 100x better and the the difference will eventually be obvious

one place where i always need the smartest possible model is to resolve merge conflicts smartest model for the dumbest work

man the responses to the new claude max limits are crazy everyones expectations are so out of whack it's kind of embarrassing to get this mad, i'd just be like damn ok i'll cancel were you guys depending on this shit to keep your grandma alive i don't get it

any tips on getting your team to take your suggestions more seriously?

we're doing a lot of introspection on our product process i really think you should be too. the default place for our new coding agent abilities to go to is to work on the wrong things products going from good to bad faster than ever

my dog got out and got hit by a car today both front legs broken - they're checking to make sure it's nothing else and hopefully he'll fully recover hug your puppies!

saw some comments saying our team sucks because we use ai too much unfortunately that's not why, we just suck for normal reasons

LLMs have made clout chasing spam so hard to deal with people spinning up entire official looking websites with made up security or privacy issues misinformation spreads and gets repeated and we waste our time dealing with it

.well-known so hot right now

it's lame to see all the people saying "ha called it i knew sora wouldn't work" yeah duh, everyone thought that including the people who were working it. they probably learned a lot trying to make it work anyway 1/2

bun related segfaults have decreased quite a bit

hi harrison

mfs making a one line code change by writing a sentence into their agent and then posting about 10x productivity gains while it runs and bills them

the infra we have right now is barely enough for today's ai inference demand the options are demand goes up, stays flat, or goes down everyone seems to be certain that building out more capacity is "bubble fomo behavior" they're that certain demand is going down?

we made his dreams come true

what's it like having free cash flow

everyone's interpreting this as proof of a bubble but the only information here is these companies are saying they'd rather die than lose this race

so many replies like "see i told you it was a bubble" well if you're so smart mf how come you can't grab an extra milly or two with the amount of money flying around
