It’s possible, Marcus Aurelius said, to not have an opinion. You don’t have to turn this into something, he reminds himself. You don’t have to let this upset you. You don’t have to think something about everything.

If you think that in the future all companies will start to vibe code their own tools instead of using a SaaS you’re disconnected from reality because when a company buys a product what they’re really paying for is the certainty and safety that things will just work without any

I'm not presently hiring, but I think a really effective engineering interview would be to explicitly ask someone to use AI to solve a task, and see how they navigate. Ignore results, the way AI is driven is maybe the most effective tool at exposing idiots I've ever seen.

Maybe AI was just some elaborate ploy to get engineers to finally write tests and documentation

I went from entirely hand-coding to getting high volumes of useful AI generated code in less than a month, with only extremely rare and manageable hallucinations, though just one change to my programming practice. Which I will now describe. 1. Write and maintain a context file

Starting a software company is not the same thing as building a software product. On a relative basis, one is extremely easy, the other is extremely hard. I'll let you figure out which is which.

Dear Generalists, 70%+ of commercial SaaS code is free open source. Multi-billion $ moats have been built on top of free software for decades If your thesis is cheaper/faster dev cycles kills SaaS, you’re 15 years late. The product isn't the code

Claude Code loves tests and good organization. If your project is a mess, good luck getting anywhere with Claude Code. AI is a huge magnifying glass. It makes good code better, and bad code even worse. I learned this the hard way.

Also known as, “please watch this cutscene, we worked really hard on it, but we know you don’t care”

TL;DR - solve problems you have

If you're a business owner talking about Claude Code on Twitter, I have a genuine question. Don't you have a business to run? I use Claude Code every single day. Our team builds with it constantly. But I would never make a post about it, because my audience isn't people

Dear Vibe coders. The obstacle to building a 9 figure SaaS/Software was never code. It was focusing on 1 thing and refining it for years. Which is why you have created 50 apps and a Open Claw that can do your taxes but have zero actual results.

People giving OpenClaw root access to their entire life

In Time 2, the sequel.

One legal point: The DoW "supply chain risk" designation applies to DoW *contracts,* not generally. DoW can tell suppliers "don't use Anthropic when performing DoW contracts." But DoW can't, legally, tell its contractors "don't use Anthropic even in your private contracts."

Finally a sensible take. Unfortunately the feed is 95% flooded with the stupidest takes on anything since… well yesterday probably.

This is not a tax on income… This is the government saying you must give 5% of your assets, your property, to the state.

Devs are acting like they didn’t write slop code before AI.
