That's not how I'm reading it. More like, given the past 3 years development, why wouldn't AI be able to do that in the not-so-distant future?

Also clinging on to my 12 mini in spite of decreasing battery capacity.

If there was a 15+ mini, I would’ve upgraded a long time ago.

Thanks for sharing. Remarkable story. Can't help but wonder how many more lives would've been saved if they had not been warned of going down.

I worry that AI will find a way to control some country's nukes and use them to achieve some arbitrary goal it was instructed to reach.

If you don’t understand how the sausage was made, do you even know if it's sausage?

He's the manager - that's like corporate root privileges

His AI experience is $10 of DeepSeek - but I think he is right anyway in the main points.

You can most definitely ship crap much faster than you used to. It's obvious to anyone when you're shipping crap. And it seems everywhere I look people are shipping crap. Both software and writing.

The hardest part of shipping quality software is not and has never been "writing the code". The hard parts are product taste, architecture and ensuring your product actually solves the problems it should in an efficient and secure manner.

If you don't have an intuition of those, you will likely still be shipping crap. Just faster.

Maybe it’s not needed. But why not just use React anyway?

What’s wrong with the existing bank notes? I like their design

You're forgetting all the supervillain stuff.

I agree. Software engineering as we know it is dead. Wonder what it'll evolve into.

In the blink of an eye you'll be 60, looking back thinking where the last 20 years went. Make them count :)

That, combined with the recording of Gemini 7 [1] and the debriefing of Apollo 11 crew (Armstrong, Aldrin, Collins) [2] is also what find I most compelling.

These are highly trained astronauts, engineers and fighter pilots. In the case of Apollo 11, they went straight to a press conference and stated that they saw nothing out of the ordinary, basically lying to the public.

60 years later, and we still (presumably) have no clue what they saw, except that it was important enough to keep classified.

So... what if you are a contributor to OpenClaw and like using Claude Code? Simply not allowed?

My guess is she wants to respond to all feedback and questions but doesn't have time to do it all by hand.

Cool idea. But is anyone actually building real stuff like this with any kind of high quality?

Every time I hear someone say "I have a team of agents", what I hear is "I'm shipping heaps of AI slop".

Don’t worry - that will certainly change in the future if they have any kind of success :)

OpenAI also worked like this last time I used it - not sure if that's changed.
