This is exactly what I mean. You’re thinking about the abstract conditions and not what it would take to secretly stage something like this.

Wish people crying “marketing” would think about what it is they’re claiming.

Think about what you’re saying. If Jarred does it because he wants to, what does marketing have to add? How do they “cash in on it”?

Both!

I don’t understand why anyone thinks management of any kind was involved in this at all. It seems much more plausible to me that Jarred just does what he wants. He has said as much.

I think we actually are seeing an app explosion, just not a consumer app explosion.

This reads to me as fully written by LLMs. Pangram agrees. Note the (alleged) author misHQ’s comments on this thread are getting downvoted as obvious slop. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48706307 Even if it were writt

That message is obviously aimed at the government. See the other thread.

All we can say is empirically this is not true. Plenty of people whose full time job is managing rack infra are sick and tired of the customizability of commodity hardware, of the many custom bugs in commodity software, and of the customiza

He has said every month for the past three years that there is no technical progress left to be made in LLMs and that there is no more room in the market for inference spending to grow. Here[0] is a fun selection of excerpts from his July 2

Jane Street’s profit per employee ( profit , not revenue) in 2025 was high single-digit millions per employee.

Yeah, I agree — not a big difference for me between the Opuses. I really just meant Opus 4.x.

Claude Code (or Codex, or OpenCode, or Pi, or Amp — whatever) can do this out of the box without any skills or special tools. The most important thing for making results like this easier to achieve (in any harness) is using the best current

They are metered. That's why their ARR went from $9B to $45B in 6 months.

I must have thought I wrote something that I didn't actually write in the previous comment — I can't figure out what "as I said" is supposed to be about. In any case, maybe I was too subtle. I was talking about Mythos, a

And there's a whole lot more evidence than that!

I think we have quite good reason to expect more. As I said, we already know (caveat with your level of irrational skepticism toward the overwhelming evidence) that the best existing models are better than the ones publicly available.

Judging from the fact that the Opus 4.5 inflection point was not really anticipated, and we still don’t really know what threshold was crossed that suddenly made agentic coding accessible to so many more people, I think it’s safe to say we

1. Global IT spend is $6T per year 2. Where does this $5T number come from? If they make $4T in revenue over the next 5 years instead, what happens?

I don’t think “Usage has plateaued except for coding” is compatible with lab ARR at $80B and still growing exponentially. https://www.theinformation.com/articles/anthropic-openais-sh...

Weird is far too generous. It’s a travesty of thinking.

It’s not deviating up and down. It’s deviating upward. It is necessarily going to wildly overstate the previous 12 months’ revenue while wildly understating the next 12 months’ revenue. There is no way to describe exponential growth in a si
