<p>I've built something quite similar, actually. It's quite a powerful workflow. Integrating multiple agents into chat with freeform comms is pretty fun, but I do find that you lose fidelity of what the agents are doing in terms of seeing actual changes, tool uses, and other things. The moat here does seem quite small, though.</p>

<p>I think copying a website like this is very poor taste regardless. If I see you doing this, I immediately lose trust in your product and will immediately leave.<p>If you can't put the effort into the face of your product, how can I trust you to put effort into the product itself? Shitty behavior, with a shitty justification self-affirmation blogpost.</p>

<p>Terrible fix but it's a fix that's minimally-invasive and addresses a bug that causes a disproportionate annoyance to the fix. I can imagine your cursor lagging is something that is extremely annoying over time.</p>

<p>Wonder why they chose to stick with the portafilter form factor rather than something custom for the method. Perhaps it just fits the task well and they don't need to change, or they want to preserve the look of an espresso machine. Though, if the water is room temp, they only really need the pressure, which doesn't need the entire machine. Seems pretty cool.<p>Edit: The article shows that they chose this method specifically to use the basket, and the basket allows for the vibrations they need. The other conveniences of the basket form factor also come into play; reloading, cleaning, etc. and don't need reinventing or retraining. Cool stuff. I wonder whether they'll remodel the machine around the basket and remove what's not needed if this becomes a product.</p>

<p>I've seen this happen a bunch too, though fortunately it hasn't been _that_ common. More often is managers that don't understand things using AI tools to try to understand them, mostly failing, and then regurgitating the LLM output during a meeting. Added as a link on my blog, too, since I have a similar article.</p>

<p>Monthly subscriptions for software like this confuse me. The website also obscures that it's paid at all - the first option is "download for X", then the next option is a red button to "unlock". No pricing link/page, nothing. Aimed at getting you to download and use it, then fork up later.<p>References mentioned all going on about productivity etc. Red flags all-round.</p>

<p>VPNs aren't anonymous, no, despite people pretending they are. Nonetheless, the findings in this report do highlight some things that make user identification easier than you'd expect it to be.<p>I'd not throw the report out just due to what you argue here. These findings are valid nonetheless.</p>

<p>The price doesn't seem bad, though this case smells of some sort of greater internal shift that's, at least for me, indicative the Bitwarden is being turned into a profit-machine-at-any-cost rather than providing a good service for money.<p>This new CEO is a massive red flag. Literally nothing about anything relevant to the product or industry, though he's apparently good at private equity and selling orgs.<p>Probably worth jumping ship now before it mutates into another shitty corporate org, except this one is keeping your passwords.</p>

<p>Seniors aren't layoff-proof, yeah, or anyone really.<p>I think the point I made in the article is more aimed at AI advancing into being able to do the jobs that people currently say they won't/can't do.<p>When ChatGPT appeared, not long ago, people said that it wouldn't be able to code well because it lacks the reasoning ability. Well, here we are.</p>

<p>Changed back or not, this demonstrates that they're either willing to make sweeping changes like this that hurt a massive number of users, or that they're incompetent to the point of not realising the impact of the first change. They'd have had to just blindly make the change, since the original PR was approved and merged within the same minute by the original author (no additional eyes, at least that we can see), or ignore user complaints and make it anyway. Both cases demonstrate terrible stewardship of VSCode.</p>
