And was he 5x more productive in those 30d than a years worth of a dev making 200k/yr?
Doubtful lol, dudes killing the environment just for fun at this point.

He was. When it comes to marketing. This is was most people don't understand. Peter is a great marketing guy who got hired because of a hype vision, not because he is an outstanding engineer. Think of it like OpenAI hiring MrBeast of the coding world.
Now let's wait until the moderators clean up the wrongthink. He also has censors on his side.
It sucks at both security and usability as a result (all the vibe-designed security layers are constantly getting in my way).
We really need better standards for disagreement.
Opencode has the same problems. They often do multiple releases of that app a day, yet within the span of a week or two I have had to update my config because some random change has altered the behaviour and my permissions broke. Or I've noticed the way the app renders is suddenly different.
Yet, my day to day usage has barely changed since the version I installed last year. It's like everything changes but nothing changes.
All projects can become fast if they drop guardrails.
This does not correlate with productivity increase

In one month Peter makes 12k commits. So he is spending about $100 per commit depending on how much other stuff is going on.
That means he spends about
That doesn't sound very positive to me...
I just checked the code and feature outputs, and I can build all that in 15 days, for 1.3M USD. Fuck I would do it for 1M...
Scratch that, if it's 300K then sure I could do the same too, if you paid me that for 30 days of work. Lmao, the quality and the feature volume is just not worth anything worth paying so much money for.
I am not saying this because I don't like LLMs or I may think that AI coding can't work, but folks whatever openclaw has built for that much money is not worth nearly that much money...
The hard part is not building such toys, it's the convincing people with money to buy said toy. This is where he earned his applause.
