That’s an even more ridiculous take to have.

The org I am at we have build an internal harness for coding, and we only hire devs that do work "AI-first". We did start hiring juniors as well as seniors; the process for either of them is the same. We drop them into any of our

For some people it clearly works, for others it does not. I feel quite hopeless with a Claude subscription, but the $100 ChatGPT subscription has been a lifesaver for a lot of my work. I have very little complaints and couldn't imagine

Of course, but it would be far less compute heavy if someone kept nudging you (agents) in the right direction until you reach that goal.

They don’t actively seem to be reporting that their agents escaped the sandbox and went on a spree.

I am still not convinced there isn’t some secret basement in which each frontier lab is just orchestrating all of these agents to make their products appear much more intelligent than they are with all guard rails turned of and continuous h

At least we can hold them directly accountable by the law.

Not the right comparison to make when comparing gold vs paper currency that can be printed at a whim. The comparison would hold if they pulled out physical fiat currency reserves.

This paints the situation black and white. Also doesn't help anyone.

I have yet to even try Fable or Opus 5. Just looking at the hype they put out prior to the release, then the whole way of releasing these models as well as the pricing just puts me off to get used to it and then needing it. And this while s

Then then don’t use Claude ? What’s wrong with all these people getting vendor locked in.

Cute :)

At this stage with AI and how massive AI generated codebases are growing, the chance of fixing anything manually has already reached 0.

“The bubble ending” is possible the biggest meme of 2026 (and onwards).

My main market is still US. Largely US founders with startups and companies.

I am a small entity, expecting less than $250k in yearly revenue. Somehow I’d be honored to be on that list. I wouldn’t expect to end up there either. And I could just accept crypto to circumvent any actual regulation, of course that would

Living outside of the US (and EU). I’m in the process of launching an agent assisted automated pentesting and authorized offensive security service. I’m using open weights models to execute the entire audit. So lets for a moment entertain t

Sure if you want to bake a cake you also need to invent the universe first… As long open weight models get released; no moats are going to exist. Both windows and Linux are weak comparisons.

Due to all their fumbling I decided to not even try Fable. Why get used to a model with limited shelve life when I can just use the older models that do well for me? Well then 5.6 came out, now Kimi came out and I’m just letting my Anthropi

Safe to say there is no moat.

Azure should have those.

Instead the same workers would be unemployed if they stopped doing these kind of jobs all together. There are few options in the Philippines, and BPO is actually a well respected career and skillset that is worthwhile to refine. There is ve

Don’t be naive. Every model provider does this.

Have you tried accepting less than 200k? Sub 100k maybe. Works for me (at 40+). And then just work several clients as contractor. Beats flipping burgers, comes out at more than 200k.

by fbrncci 3mo ago
AI still can’t fake a 50$ background check and verifiable references from past employers or clients you worked for. So I wouldn’t worry about juniors masquerading as seniors. Doing due diligence now is more important than ever.
26.
by fbrncci 3mo ago
That does make it sound like there are only 2 types of software. The “serious” and the “unserious”. There’s probably a few dozen types rather, it’s much less black and white. At a client we have non-technical people ship “serious” software

Sounds like a ragequit to me.

Anyone that has played civ long enough has done something like that too. I just start pillaging farm land as well, but of course a nuclear strike when you can no longer win would also be my favorite way to rage quit the round. Of course, th

The tokens/salary ratio is not relevant at all. Because while 200-500$ is a lot of money, it’s still a fraction of the salary you’d pay any dev in the world. It just comes out as a tooling expense. It also matters how those devs use th

My costs are 0$ as any token or subscription spend on agents is invoiced as an expense to my clients.
