Old Xeet, but still a friendly reminder that these are people saying they will make all knowledge work obsolete. They can't even build half-decent software themselves.

Another thing, Anthropic acquired Bun, the JS runtime Claude Code runs on, last year. Keep in mind that Bun is FOSS and they could've just forked it and created their own version of it if they wanted to. Instead, they chose to acquire it because they needed the JS expertise that came with it to improve Claude Code. Why didn't they just let Claude Code recursively self-improve like they claim it does?

Really begs the question, why didn't Anthropic just vibe-code their own Datadog? Or even better, why didn't they just get an agent to spin up a kubernetes cluster of one of Datadog's many FOSS alternstives?
Dario's worst fears are becoming real.

Peter Steinberger has been glazing OpenAI's Codex 5.2 and 5.3 models for the past 2 months - and lo-and-behold, he is now working with OpenAI as of yesterday.

OpenClaw has been an "OpenSource" project riddled with security issues (some natural, and some due to mindless vibe-coding), and always had an escape clause of being a hobby project. Now Sam Altman will be able to build a closed-source agent of his with 100% visibility over users systems considering the level of privileges the harness takes.
