Just yet another reason to use an open source harness instead of a closed harness.

Where was the outrage when Pelosi and several members of congress were buying and selling stocks and front-running key legislation being passed that directly affected certain stocks in question? That sort of corruption was largely (and deliberately) ignored.

Now we have lead it to the point where corruption like this is allowed because no one was caught in the first place.

To quote what Pelosi said herself when asked about this conflict of interest: "We’re a free market economy, They (law makers) should be able to participate in that.” [0]

Essentially she has green-lighted said corruption, which she and others (except for AOC) have zero integrity even when both Trump and them are just as corrupt.

> as long as there are crazy idealists (like me) who put their time into building things for free, and hope that they will make some random persons life a little bit better.

You are only saying this from the perspective of having an employer paying you for everything.

My point is about developers who don't have that and are doing full time "open source" for free which that is not sustainable in the long term. AI will only just make it less worth it for them to maintain open source software as such, unless companies or a substantial amount of other users / developers pay for support.

I have never seen lawyers, mechanics, surgeons and financial advisors ever reduce their profession to free work or advice.

It now doesn't make any sense to someone to go full time open source (and running on donations) and it is completely thankless of your time anyway. AI has now made it far worse for them.

But the most evergreen part of this is, developers will almost certainly never pay for their own tools and will always build their own and then expect to sell it to themselves, which doesn't work.

So we will more close-sourcing which the author has the right to do.

Once again, if you don't like it stop using Claude Code then.

It is slowly morphing into 2008 but this time the homes (data centers) are for the AI agents, instead of humans.

"Claude found that combining the results from Baluyot, Goldston, Suriajaya, and Turnage-Butterbaugh with the work of Bombieri provides a way to surpass the previous state-of-the-art lower bound proportion of 41.6%, increasing it to 67.2%."

The transcripts, papers, and Claude's explanation are an interesting and a better read than this article, and this is exactly what Anthropic should continue to do and it helps other researchers outside the company as well.

So we are just vibe patenting rubbish and rebranding it with AI?

The US is not the entire world.

Revolut has major banking licenses in Europe, UK and Mexico. That doesn't mean it is not bank.

Wells Fargo does not operate in the UK, but it is still a major bank in the US and it is still a bank.

Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) is a bank in the UK. Just because it doesn't operate in the US, does not mean it isn't a bank.

> Don't be gullible and believe blindly what the marketing departments tell you.

Revolut is still a major bank even if they don't operate in the US (yet).

Yes it does.

> You can gamble with it, but it doesn't let you own or send it.

You can deposit (receive) and withdraw (send) cryptocurrencies there.

"Owning" is a matter at the private key level which of course you use a self-hosted wallet for "true" ownership. But no argument was made on ownership.

My point still stands that Revolut is a bank that allows cryptocurrencies.

No better than recalling a wrong bank transfer or Zelle transaction.

HN really is living in their own bubble.

Well it appears that only the hosting providers are making money out of OpenClaw and want you to waste money on tokens and hosting.

Amazon believes that the AI agents need a new home more than humans do and would rather build homes for these agents than for humans.

But of course, the advantages are obvious to them:

1) 24/7 intelligence when you need it.

2) Tokens can be generated cheaply, meaning lots of work for 1 / 100th of the price of a human.

3) Knowledge can stay with the agent and will never leave the company and the agent has no breaks or weekends.

No wonder Amazon saw something like this, wanted it so badly and ignored humans to build more homes for c̶l̶a̶n̶k̶e̶r̶s̶ AI agents. Such a sad state of affairs.
