On one hand yes, but also a big company can now potentially copy your project for pennies and have far bigger outreach and marketing so they eat your market.

Big companies have always been able to copy your project for pennies, relatively.

Yes but even then, it required people assigned to the project, middle management and time.

Now one could even envision a near future where they have agents running 24/7 automatically scanning for new SaaS projects and cloning them, and just throwing slop into the market to see if it sticks.


This isn’t really how marketing works, and randomly throwing slop into the market is not how good brands get built.

I wouldn’t worry about it anymore than you worried about it pre-AI.


You can search and watch videos directly with no issue, but main feed and suggestions on the side of videos are not appearing.

Really goes to show how much I depend on the algorithmic recommendations, I have no idea what to watch having to search manually. Usually my feed always has something that piques my interest.

edit: back up


If you are subscribed to channels, I really recommend using Subscriptions instead of home page. Otherwise, you may miss videos from your favorite creators just because YT decided so.

Search on YouTube has been broken for at least 4 to 5 years.

Some time back it used to find stuff. Now its just recommends shorts.

That's just an American thing, I've never owned a car and most people of my age I know haven't either.


That's fair. The public infrastructure in other places around the world is a lot more hospitable to other methods of transportation.

Perhaps Permutation City by Greg Egan though I didn't finish the book.

I've heard Accelerando by Stross is good too.


Why this and not Garnix?

10k is more close to a yearly software developer salary in my country than a monthly one.

That being said at least the $20/mo Claude Code subscription is really worth it, and many companies are paying for the AI tools anyways.


I believe you can enter "flow state" with something like Claude Code, from what I've read, but it's mostly reduced to pressing 1 or 2 and typing a few prompts. The reward loop is much more closed now though, so it's a bit more akin to reaching flow state playing Tetris.


Claude Code seems to be back up


i just checked; no version 5 models listed in claude code yet


is back online


Most people are running Moltbot (or whatever is called today) in an isolated environment so it's not much of a big deal really.

edit: okay fair enough I might be biased on who I follow/read on who 'most' people are


Most people running it are normies that saw it on linkedin and ran the funny "brew install" command they saw linked because "it automates their life" said the AI influencer.

Absolutely nobody in any meaningful amount is running this sandboxed.


Press X to doubt.

If even half are running it sufficiently sandboxed I'll eat my hat.


I would be genuinely, truly surprised if even 10% were. I think the people on HN who say this are wildly disconnected from the security posture of the average not-HN user.


I'm not so sure most people are doing this.


#1 "molty" is running on its "owner"'s MacBook: https://x.com/calco_io/status/2017237651615523033


What’s this have to do with containers?

They can live in any machine.


But to be useful it’s not in a contained environment, it’s connected to your systems and data with real potential for loss or damage to others.

Best case it hurts your wallet, worse case you’ll be facing legal repercussions if it damages anyone else’s systems or data.


I think it is, doing something so pointless is a bad sign. or what value did I miss?


I'm both scared and excited for this.

I really don't want games to turn into a soulless, AI generated mush. This could also bring a huge amount of slop-generated content flooding the game market.

On the other hand I think this could be very cool from some specific use cases like outdoor scenarios in simulators. I've always wanted a game like Euro Truck Simulator where I can drive a car around a whole 1:1 representation of a country and this might just allow that, obviously I don't care about an accurate representation of every building or tree or hallucinations, just for it to be believable enough.

I wonder if it can be integrated into already existing engines though, because it seems like a big stretch to write actual game logic as an LLM prompt.
