Not sure what to make of this. React is missing entirely. Or is this report also assuming that React is the default for everything and not worth mentioning at all? Just like shadcn/ui's first mention of React is somewhere down the page or hidden in the docs?

Furthermore, what's the point of "no tools named"? Why would I restrict myself like that? If I put "use Nodejs, Hono, TypeScript and use Hono's html helper to generate HTML on the server like its 2010, write custom CSS, minimize client-side JS, no Tailwind" in CLAUDE.md, it happily follows this.

I just got an incredible idea about how foundation model providers can reach profitability

There are vibe coders out there that don't know anything about coding.

I found it a remarkable transition to not use Redis for caching from Sonnet 4.5 to Opus 4.6. I wonder why that is the case? Maybe I need to see the code to understand the use case of the cache in this context better.

I didn't read the report just the "finding" - but at least for launchdarkly it's nice that it chose a roll-your-own, i hate feature flag SaaS, but that's just me

This is funny to me because when I tell Claude how I want something built I specify which libraries and software patents I want it to use, every single time. I think every developer should be capable of guiding the model reasonably well. If I'm not sure, I open a completely different context window and ask away about architecture, pros and cons, ask for relevant links or references, and make a decision.
