  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 is updated almost multiple times daily. I'm sure these framework authors are keeping tabs on the harness of the harness performance for every release of the harness.

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

A lot of companies seem to not do consistent raises for inflation

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.

Man I loved this game. My friend and I would split responsibility and share the keyboard. One did the firing other the navigating

"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"

    the new normal for our industry

Not really. This level of toxic is definitely just Meta.

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 the overall tech industry.

Giving retail traders a reason to turn their life savings into exit liquidity

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. Tracking this project

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).

100% agreed. I saw it somewhere else that the tech industry has burned all the transformative good will it had earned over the years and is now seen as the key villain in joblessness, societal discord and loneliness. What the fuck did happen? Edit: this isn't just an old man thing, this is the new generation saying this

Which they should. I've been lucky enough to work at places that had great non-technical managers that promoted based on great execution, as well as highly technical managers that also promoted based on great execution.

Now I'm at the other kind of place and it sucks. They'll fire the performative engineers though during layoff season. It's almost like they like playing politics until it really matters.

I am definitely for services respecting customer privacy, but I can't help if this is different. I recently saw a thread where a person was bragging that frontier providers were blocking their attempt at what looked like to be social media de-anonymization and blackmailing app.

Maybe this isn't different than using something like Google Sheets to keep a list of people to dox and blackmail, but the leverage certainly makes it feel different.

Not nearly enough animated gradient dropshadow. Check out googles AI Mode button and the same loading button status thing while waiting for responses in AI Mode. Please add it so I don't have to prompt for it - I can't tell if I'm joking.

How about product only CTOs who quietly hate engineers because they don't know what they do, and they constantly feel threatened

The brutal reality being its probably most capable in that domain. They'll freely admit they're not "the never the smartest guy in the room" and their decision record proves it
