I am here. What did I not bother with? I wrote the blog post and it has all the details.
Hey, is JJ compatibility in the cards? Considering the blog article hints at a goal of a developerless agent-to-agent automation platform I'm guessing developer conveniences are a side quest rn?
60 million SEED round? This is really a thing now?

Entire CEO here. We are going to be building in the open and full stack open source, but great to see alternatives.
Another of your competitors here. It makes me giggle that we're going after the entire developer experience while Entire is only looking at a small corner of it.
List of Github CEOs: 1. Tom Preston-Werner (Co-founder). 2008 – 2014 (Out for, eh... look it up) 2. Chris Wanstrath (Co-founder). 2014 – 2018 (2018: Acquisition by Microsoft: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17227286 ) 3. Nat Friedman (Gnome/Ximian/Microsoft). 2018 – 2021 4. Thomas Dohmke (Founder of HockeyApp, some A/B testing thing, acquired by Microsoft in 2014). 2021 - 2025 There is no Github CEO now, it's ju…
Nat's company Xamarin was acquired by Microsoft in 2016.
HockeyApp wasn't A/B testing, but a platform for iPhone, Mac, Android, and Windows Phone developers to distribute their beta version (like what TestFlight is today to the App Store), collect crash reports (like what Sentry is today), user feedback, and basic analytics for developers.
Either the models are good and this sort of platform gets swept away, or they aren’t, and this sort of platform gets swept away.
The most interesting thing about everyone trying to position themselves as AI experts is the futility of it: the technology explicitly promises tomorrows models will be better then todays, which means the skill investment is deflationary: the best time to learn anything is tomorrow when a better model will be better at doing the same work - because you don't need to be (conversely if you're not good at debugging and…

The problem is that so many of these things are AI instructing AI and my trust rating for vibe coded tools is zero. It's become a point of pride for the human to be taken out of the loop, and the one thing that isn't recorded is the transcript that produced the slop.
I mean, you have the creator of openclaw saying he doesn't read code at all, he just generates it. That is not software engineering or development, it's brogrammer trash.
The founder has only forked repositories on GitHub that are sort of light web development related. His use of bombastic language in this announcement suggests that he has never personally worked on serious software. The deterioration of GitHub under his tenure is not confidence inspiring either, but that of course may have been dictated by Nadella. If you are very generous, this is just another GitHub competitor dres…
I’ve worked with ashtom for over a decade. He’s a coding machine - easily one of the most technical executives (who ships real production code.)
