DeepSeek is underrated. Basically all Chinese models are good enough for day to day coding at this point.
The 2 trillion dollar ROI on anthropic alone?
Good luck with that.
- Art9681 10d agoGood luck building something of value with "day to day coding". If you're going to compete in the future economy, you're going to compete at the frontier. The low hanging fruit will be of no value. If I can recreate your SaaS with an open weight model at a fraction of the cost, then your SaaS has no value.

- cl-coder 10d agoIf I can recreate your "frontier" SaaS with day-to-day coding, it has no value. Or perhaps the few months' lead was never the deciding factor.
- serf 10d agothe vast majority of successful SaaS offer capabilities or services no where near the frontier. furthermore i'd argue that the success of an saas, or really any startup, has more to do with things aside from the code and service itself. Finance management, social connections and effects, word of mouth, networking -- probably all more important than whether or not the todo app uses a functional language and is formally proven.
- nvme0n1p1 10d agoWhat the hell are you yammering about. Everything in the economy exists at different quality/price tradeoffs, everything from tomato sauce at the grocery store to landscaping services to SaaS. "Compete at the frontier" is some maximalist buzzword nonsense. Do you think Ikea is crying because their furniture is cheap and they're not "competing at the frontier"?
- blizzard_dev_17 10d agoSounds like you suffer from Dunning-Kruger. AI is making a lot of dumb people look smart. A lot of us can see right through it.
