Story points in the agentic era: 1 point: Agents works for 6 hrs. I review the PR. 3 points: Agents works for 2 hrs. I make 4 decisions. 5 points: We need to figure out what we're actually building.

What does it do that is actually useful?
It is becoming f*cking dangerous A 23-year-old dev from China just ran 300 Claude Code agents in parallel and hooked them to a verification layer so none of them could bullshit him He opens the live dashboard: - 300 agents writing and checking at the same time - Every output verified against the source in ~100 ms - Three passes over 100 company profiles → zero errors left - Everything dumped straight into an Obsidian vault The trick is the split: one model does the work, a cheaper one decides if the claim is actually true. The loop doesn’t stop until everything checks out An analyst team would bill weeks for this. He got it in one run Same kind of Second Brain + swarm setup that keeps circulating.

And the Agent comes with built in cliffhangers: “There is one more thing, and it signals the end of the world…”
Replying to @hrushb
the agent still asks you to rephrase the question three times

“Agent” is hopium for “Chatbot”.

Don’t feed the pigeons, Chandra. Keep doing what you do, you’re great.
Maybe you have reading comprehension issues. That's obviously not what I said. Also I don't sit in some studio

Lovely. Please keep us posted on how this holds up. Maintaining and debugging software is fun like you never seen…
There’s something wrong with Zoho’s product. A friend of mine got a freelance client whose pain point was that Zoho wasn’t customizable enough to meet their needs. So, they wanted to build their own website and app. People are starting to think it’s better to make a one-time investment in a developer to build a website or app which has become much cheaper with AI rather than keep paying for a Zoho subscription.

Zero understanding of basic economics. Marginal value. Marginal utility. If all rich people are this stupid, then this stupid statement is worth something.
Why is nobody making more boring stuff for rich people. Why isn’t there a popular brand of $5k fridges and $10k dishwashers , and $20k washing machines. I’m sure enough people would happily pay There are tonnes of people who need help spending money.

Some people are just genius. How did he need only two years and untold millions in investments to figure this out?
Replacing LLM calls with deterministic code is a no brainer and also results in better code that better matches what users want

Next, the banks are going to require that you take your device to the branch and use only their secured WiFi to access net banking.
When foreign banks work fine with a username and password (and that too via a password manager), why don't Indian banks? Why do Indian banks require a captcha + otp + specific browser + no password managers + (on mobile: access to GPS location + no developer perms + no USB)?

Thanks, but, no thanks.
Cancel your Adobe subscription ASAP. Everything Photoshop can do, running free inside a single browser tab. ImageFlow will be launching in 24 hours.

The real problem is that models are improving past the point of relevance. And without fixing what was broken in the previous model.
a weird inversion with LLMs is the models improve faster than the tinkerers when i see people with custom workflows and setups they're all addressing problems that don't exist anymore the person naively using vanilla codex is more likely to be experiencing state of the art

Quick edit: “go to war *for* them”. Clearer.
I love my founders And will proudly go to war with them anytime ⚔️

This is a legitimate question with unnecessary noise in the comments. It’s no different from Google getting permission to scrape sites, but disallowing any scraping of Google.

Can you help me understand why you don't make various Anthropic resources available via MCP? Maybe I'm missing something.

It’s what VCs call “pattern matching”. Then they reward it with piles of money.
underwhelming ai product launches - feels like everyone is doing the obvious follow-on strategy without thinking of the users from first principles considering ai usage is technically still abysmal beyond coding …and considering its capabilities.

Thank you @helloanand. I still remember the fun we had with burrp tv :)
I’d second that @hrushb and/or @surdattack - not just designers but product builders

Thank you @viveklath. Honestly it was a result of two things: 1. A world-class team 2. A founder that truly cared about design as opposed to pretending to care. Without both of those, the craft will be lost.
Replying to @hrushb @subodhkolhe
Hrush - a 2009 cleartrip will beat almost all consumer products from today’s India across all aspects of ux/ui. The work you guys did back then was world class. I wonder where that craft is lost.

Steve Yegge was 100x more productive before he started using AI.

It’s just email. What had you turned it into in your head?
I hate to say this because I'm a Google shareholder but Gmail is becoming a dumb pipe for my agents
