Good luck to you if the prompt is written by health insurance.

next year bro, I promise, now give me 60 billion more in funding

You are confusing the job with a subset of tasks. Some tasks can be automated, some won't. That doesn't mean LLMs, which cannot tell how many r's are in strawberry, will replace anyone.

This program was brought to you by the private equity engagement pod.

Try Opencode or Comrade. Both OSS and working great with OSS models too.

not a full AI stack. Training still runs on NVIDIA chips.

I designed Comrade to have a "common sense" engine, where each plan/action goes through a filter before being suggested to the user to be approved. This is particularly enforced when the agent goes on a web page. It will always be aware of the source of the prompt, and if it's different from the Electron app where the user can interact with the agent, it will drop that instruction altogether.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks a lot!

I have created my own engine for testing the simulations in TypeScript. There is no external logic circuit library under the hood.

The simulation itself is tick-based with a light event-driven flavor. Each tick I compute an evaluation order using a topological sort of the circuit graph (based on wire connections). Then I iterate through components in that order, gathering inputs from connected wires. Each component runs an evaluate() function, producing outputs and a nextState. Outputs propagate through wires immediately within the same tick.

Thank you so much! I have this on my list, so I will try to add this tonight.

In the article I have also talked about a different game as well that teaches players how chips work. I have added that here too: https://select.supply/game/chipbuilder.

I revived Encarta's Mindmaze and added a new game teaching how to build chips on my affiliate website select.supply. The games are 100% free and no account is needed. I used to spent lots of hours on Mindmaze and just wanted to relive that experience again.

My bet that this is just a model with a slimmer safety alignment which yields results in 100 agent running in parallel configuration.

clanker != luxury, quite the opposite

If he's breaking the law and there is proof to that, then he will and should be arrested.

I hate them too, but arresting them for something that they simply cannot prevent due to technical limitations, since they cannot scan in realtime all the conversations happening on their platform, is Russian-style government action, not rule of law.

How is the ceo responsible for operating under the current legal framework which allows his platform not to require KYC? Unless they are breaking the law, why should anyone arrest him?

It's the responsibility of the lawmakers to make them illegal or force them to do kyc.

If you fantasize about China or Russia way of doing things you should move there.

it's a hyperbole dude. It accelerates the moral decay of a society, and the barriers for entry are very low. The one you mentioned is straight illegal and punishable in any jurisdiction across the globe.

yea just throw the CEO of microsoft in jail too because illegal transactions are set via Xbox live.

I talk about this at length in one of my previous posts here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39963058. I definitely share your opinion and I think this will be exacerbated by vibe coding and having LoC as the main KPI for engineering teams.

Honestly this story got too much attention IMHO. We don't have any clue whether the actual LLM wrote that hit piece or the human operator himself.

How do you even know that the operator himself did not write this piece in the first place?

Got super inspired by this story and (sorry for the plug) decided to build comrade, a security-focused AI agent: https://github.com/LaurentiuGabriel/comrade. I might be biased, but in my tests it managed to complete coding tasks (creating web apps from scratch) with less tools, which means less tokens, lower costs than openclaw.

What I am missing is distribution. It seems impossible to get traction nowadays on social media, regardless how good your product is.

Any feedback is much appreciated.

An AI agent was prompted to write a hit piece on an OSS maintainer, or worse, a human did that. That's the story.

When companies claim that AI writes 90% of their code you can expect that such a system can find obvious issues. Expectations are really high when you see statements such as the ones coming from the CEOs of the AI labs. When those expectations fall short, it's expected to see such reactions. It's the same proportionality on both sides.

By people in tech you mean the tech bros that do not actually code, just emit opinions on the Internet, right?

“Overkill for 85% of people” is a vibes statistic, not an argument.

Also you're generalizing some things to the whole sector like every software provider now is useless and the new features they add are not bringing any values. How can you make such generic statements about a sector that is so diverse?

I start to suspect some of you are just private-equity-sponsored accounts trying to push Anthropic propaganda over the Internet.

so many conditions need to be met to have Figma "cooked". Plus you forgot that the underlying LLMs need to get exponentially better, hard to do that without infinite VC money.

Where are all these 1000 competitors coming from?

You need to have tremendous agency/will to start competing with a public company. Plus, you need to have a lot of distribution channels, competing with sales people that do this for a living since ages, and marketing budgets that are higher than your annual Claude spending.

Regular people do not press 10 clicks daily to track their calories, and you're saying that they will start competing with Salesforce and the like?

What the authors of this kind of doomer-type articles do not realize is that B2B software companies have the data that their customers pay for, and they also have access to the AI tools themselves, meaning they can accelerate in adding new features to their products, making them more competitive.

It's a fallacy to consider the bad performance of software stocks as a definite sign that AI is going to replace them. One needs to factor financials into the equation to explain a downtrend. Take Figma for example, spending 109 mil on AWS bills, cutting through their margins. Investors know that such costs do not simply go down due to the vendor lock-in companies experience when using cloud services.

Claude Code is good, but definitely far away from being able to vibe code Figma.
