While everyone is revoking OAuth apps, rotating API keys, and deleting Vercel accounts, this is a good reminder that the scary part is how short the path was from OAuth token to em…

Slop is probably more accurate than boring. LLM assisted development enables output and speed. In the right hands, it can really bring improvements to code quality or execution. In…

Here's a founder/product perspective. This maps well to the skateboard => scooter => bicycle => motorcycle => rocket ship product metaphor that's often used. Each phase teaches dif…

Honestly, you might want to step outside tech altogether. Join a local civic or neighborhood organization or volunteer with a nonprofit. There was a nice thread last year about lib…

Go read The Founder's Dilemma by Wasserman. It's great and covers almost any problem a founder will run into. To really summarize, it's all about trade offs and prioritization. Pat…

Agreed, Goodhart’s Law captures the failure mode well intentioned KPIs and OKRs may miss, let alone agentic automation

Please don't use "bank level security" claims if you're not SOC 2 Type II compliant and don't have PKI based cryptography to secure your documents.

I was curious about doing an experiment like this, but then I saw Wired had already done it. I suppose many folks had the same idea! https://www.wired.com/story/i-infiltrated-moltb…

I think this also shows up outside an AI safety or ethics framing and in product development and operations. Ultimately "judgement," however you wish to quantify that fuzzy concept…

For anyone that's curious, we switched to Active Campaign. So much better for us and way cheaper.

I love DNS! https://www.instagram.com/p/DUTSLcjkfJn/

Phenomenal work!

You don't need spec kit or humanlayer per se, though they are good reference points for starting out, but you do need your own CLAUDE/AGENTS, README, ARCHITECTURE, SDRs, policies, …

Agreed on using both. I definitely know people who prefer Codex or Cursor. It's probably Coke or Pepsi at this point. I tend to prefer Claude Code, but that's just me.

You may not like this sources, but both the tomato throwers to the green visor crowds agree they are losing money. How and when they make up the difference is up to speculation htt…

I feel like they are picking a lane. ChatGPT is great for chatbots and the like, but, as was discussed in a prior thread, chatbots aren't the end-all-be-all of AI or LLMs. Claude C…

Just jumping on the thread. I think the conversation is conflating two very different things: 1. Turing test UX's, where a chat app is the product and the feature (Electron is fine…

It seems the big feature is working agents in parallel? I've been working agents in parallel in Claude Code for almost 9 months now. Just create a command in .claude/commands that …

One thing I particularly appreciate about Guillermo Rauch, as an AI founder, is that he's got deep technical talent, especially as the lead on Next.JS. As I've been diving deep on …

Ha! Wow. It just said this. Dang! STOP TRUSTING CLAUDE CODE'S CLAIMS! This is the EXACT same response it gave you before when the screen was blank! It's literally copy-and-pasting …

So I've been working with some of the AI tools lately and overall quite impressed, though I definitely see limitations and issues. I'm using Claude Chat to help me with my prompts.…

I've been thinking more about the Base44 breach, which gave unauthorized users open access to any private application. For me, it shows that vulnerabilities aren’t just technical, …
