#3Must be nice to have unquota’ed tokens to use with frontier AI (is this the case for Anthropic employees?). One thing I think is fascinating as we enter the Intellicene is the disproportionate access to AI. The ability to petition them to do what you want is currently based on monthly subscriptions, but will it change in the future? Who knows?

Not sure about all Anhropic employees, but that must definitely be the case for Boris Cherny.

It would be funny if the company paying software engineers $500K or more along with gold-plated stock options was limiting how much they could use the software their company was developing.

Why is that funny? What company gives you unlimited resources? That doesn’t scale. Google employees can’t just demand a $10,000 workstation. It’s reasonable to assume they have some guardrails, for both financial and stability reasons. Who knows… if it’s unlimited now, will it stay that way forever? Probably unlimited in the same sense as unlimited pto.

#7Great list of useful tips.
It's interesting that Boris doesn't mention "Agent Skills" at all. I'm still a bit confused at the difference between slash commands and Agent Skills.

If it takes a lot of back and forth it between lots of people it is more like a $12000 workstation or more after the labor for requesting and approving.

#9I don't understand how these setups scale longterm, and even more so for the average user. The latter is relevant because, as he points out, his setup isn't that far out of reach of the average person - it's still fairly close to out of the box claude code, and opus.
But between the model qualities varying, the pricing, the timing, the tools constantly changing, I think it's really difficult to build the institutional knowledge and setup that can be used beyond a few weeks.
In the era of AI, I don't tink it's good enough to "have" a working product. It's also important to have all the other things that make a project way more productive, like stellar documentation, better abstractions, clearer architecture. In terms of AI, there's gotta be something better than just a markdown file with random notes. Like what happens when an agent does something because it's picking something up from some random slack convo, or some minor note in a 10k claude.md file. It just seems like the wild west where basic ideas like additional surface area being a liability is ignored because we're too early in the cycle.
tl;dr If it's just pushing around typical mid-level code, then... I just think that's falling behind.
