I'm kind of surprised that Microsoft aren't able to preempt this scenario better, with the amount of money they're pouring into SecOps and surveillance.

Yeah, the dishonesty is real. This is marketing department getting free reigns.

The flagship product is both the cash cow (subsidizes rewrite) AND the labor (amortizes? rewrite).

Vibecession at country scale. Seems like growth feels like instability for many citizens.

I'm using this to evaluate my 'brain'-project.

In most cases, "free us from our labor" does not imply that they want machines to take their jobs so that they will have no means to subsist.

AI scares the crap out of me. I worried about what reality will look like in 2-5 years. The rate of change is pretty bonkers.

I can feel like this sometimes too. And I think it's an interesting discussion to be had in relation to how it is the same tool some use to generate code and build systems.

Maybe HN is tired of LLMs?

Nice to see a real contender in the "revenue stack" space that treats usage metering, entitlements, and checkout as one system instead of a pile of loosely coupled addons.

Cooldowns feel like a solid, ecosystem agnostic way to reduce blast radius from "malicious release goes live and gets auto pulled everywhere" attacks. They do not prevent compromise, but they buy the one thing defenders usually lack: time for humans and tooling to notice before wide rollout.

Always nice to see open source text editors, in my opinion. Textadept's codebase is a fine example.
