I feel for the startups sweating each one of these frontier lab releases. How many more are thinking “am I next?”
Yeah, I’m happy I gave up, it’s just not possible to compete and the constant stress to try to keep up is not worth it. (I built https://nelly.is as a solo founder without funding)

But there's a real class of user — technical, working on actual production code, security-conscious — for whom "my workspace lives on my machine, in my git repo, under my version control, works for my other non-openai tools" is a hard requirement, not a preference.
