Something tells me the test suites won't be human written, for most of them. They probably won't be fully human reviewed even.

Sqlite has become the standard? I've been out for a couple years but this is news to me. What does it mean though? Standard for what?

It drives me bananas. This post is so triggering.

This resonates as I'm trying to do this more, especially since I'm historically more people-pleasey.

Any resources you suggest?

Muggle question... I don't fully understand what moves the needle further for these frontier models.

Is the training data more valuable ? The training process ? The harness ?

I know they are all important but where are they (all the frontier labs) really pushing to get incremental gains?

Nice. Curious about your views on SolidJS?

Aside: I used to love reading qz. Anyone remember when it was a chat/imessage style mobile app? The news was super short and quirky.

Then they sold out and most recently literally sold out to this software company from my neck of the woods. Every single article now feels like it's written by an LLM optimized to write like a crypto/AI bro.

I used to use it daily and now not at all.

There's also a new player called diversion (diversion.dev) which I think may be a YC startup? Anyway it takes a different approach of being more like Google drive but bringing in VCS behavior making it more indie and designer friendly.

Today your statement is a little too ambitious but I agree with the overall point that the inherent effort based moat in SaaS is mostly gone and now it is really about personalizing your own.

The most common counter-argument that I've seen here is " Yes, but no organization wants to manage all of their different operational tools. They would rather just outsource that responsibility to third-party entities".

I'm not sure I fully agree with that counter. Because agents can be viewed as third party entities in some sense. If not today then maybe soon.

I'm not convinced that "actual logic and thought" aren't just about inferring what comes next statistically based on experience.
