At this rate it’s better to start a company and get aquihired vs applying and getting hired.

How many months until OpenAI no longer feels it?

12-60, but most of the acquisitions I seen executed: the teams are subsumed and the product put on life-support around 18 months in.

#14Earlier quoted context omitted.
absolutely no. Alex is heavily optimized for xcode. If you work on an ios project that has more than 700 files, you'll understand how accurate it captures the context.
If your iOS project has more than 700 files... you might be doing it wrong?

Au contraire, based on their recent hires, they're just beginning their Facebook phase. Expect to see a lot of ads 2 years from now, and expect to see a LOT of money being made by the company a year after that.
If they can maintain runway until then.

In your mind is 700 files a lot or a little? It feels very small to me, and Xcode really ought to be able to handle that tiny scale on modern machines with ease.
I struggle to imagine a team of more than 10 people writing an iOS app with less than 700 files.

Instagram.app likely has 30,000 files for iOS. And it produces 10-figures of revenue. So how is that wrong?

Since time immemorial acquired companies have claimed this sort of thing and then the acquiring companies have shut it down quick. Practically a meme at this point.

I think I am just slow today - but could you please elaborate?

#20makes sense, it kinda not super useful once xcode added native AI coding features
