I would agree if not for the fact that they just let a $200M contract slip through over it. You could argue it's "safety theater" in itself but that seems like a risky gambit especially with this administration. I definitely

And in reality most of what does need a heartbeat loop can also easily be automated by just asking Claude to set up a cronjob. I think genuinely the most "novel" thing about something like OpenClaw is just that it "feels&quot

I think we are all collectively coasting on a wave of lagging behind the current technology. Yes the new models have been exceptionally strong. But I think it's just because developers are exposed to the ecosystem more that we fear its

Honestly, might try this in my next project. Just code the tests and have AI implement against it.

Is this in line with Anthropic ToS? They cracked down hard on Clawdbot and the like from what I gathered. I guess if you are still invoking CC it might be fine, but isn't that gonna lead to weird behavior from basically doubling up on

Unfortunately it's currently very utopian for (I would assume) most devs to use something like this when API cost is so prohibitively expensive compared to e.g. Claude Code. I would love to use a lighter and better harness, but I would

I think I will try to push at least my more techy friends to a combination of Matrix and Teamspeak (because honestly the Matrix implementation of anything VC/Screenshare/Video is pure ass. A group call on Element right now starts

I mean I understand that you want your business to not fall behind right now, sure. But I don't understand people in management who are audibly _excited_ about the prospect of these developments even behind closed doors. I guess some o

> If writing the code is the easy part, why would I want someone else to write it? Exactly my takeaway to current AI developments as well. I am also confused by corporate or management who seem to think they are immune to AI developments

"If the projects get a lot of stars, they become part of the global training set that every coding agent is trained against, and the utility of the tooling continues to increase." OpenClaw currently has 1.8k issues, 400k lines of

I do see the potential in something like OpenClaw, personally, but more as a kind of interface for a collection of small isolated automations that _could_ be loosely connected via some type of memory bank (whether that's a RAG or just

Yeah I mean idk, my takeaway from OpenClaw was pretty much the same - why use someone's insane vibecoded 400k LoC CLI wrapper with 50k lines of "docs" (AI slop; and another 50k Chinese translation of the same AI slop) when I

Been looking at this over the weekend. It genuinely seems like it could have some really cool use cases. However I just don't trust an AI enough to run unprompted with root access to a machine 24/7, even if it's sandboxed. As

Sometimes when I use a plugin like this I get reminded just how much of a productivity nerf it is to code without an autocomplete AI. Honestly in my opinion if you write a lot of boilerplate code this is almost more useful than something li

If you really want to deliver polished products, you still have to manually review the code. When I tried actually "vibecoding" something, I got exhausted so fast by trying to keep up with the metric tons of code output by the AI.
