@Kalshi can't get a name right on a cup yet and the next step is face recognition at the door

@alexandr_wang sitting on hold with the insurance company so you don't have to is what gets normal people to try an agent

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@poteto agents copy whatever pattern shows up most in the repo, so the hacky stuff you never cleaned up is basically the style guide now

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@unusual_whales "associated with" is carrying that whole sentence, the companies going hardest on ai might just be the ones that were already planning cuts

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@DKThomp and a lot of those summaries are built from reddit threads by people who'll never know anyone read what they wrote

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@opencode a mockup the agent can actually look at saves you three paragraphs explaining where the button goes

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@opencode same week a rule with no toggle got pushed into claude code, good timing to have somewhere else to run the subscription

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@steipete a rule pushed from their servers with no toggle means it can change again next week and you only find out when a build gets refused

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@Kalshi no timeframe on it though, 15 million in five years and 15 million over twenty are completely different headlines

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@IroncladDev nobody was reviewing every line before ai either, on any big team you skim the diff and trust the tests

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@emollick who's actually going back and retrying the stuff that failed six months ago? most teams tried once, wrote it off and moved on

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@UnslothAI how many tokens a second does it do on a 64gb mac? that's the number that decides if anyone runs it day to day

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@IndianTechGuide only works if a fine actually shows up after, otherwise everyone figures out it's just a camera within a week

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@twtayaan and they're not showing up because you're in the wrong namespace, every single time lol

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@Polymarket two months inside a pentagon system and nobody noticed, what was it even doing all that time

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@KobeissiLetter every site that lived on google traffic is reading that quote twice today

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@TheHackersNews 5,000 dev machines means 5,000 sets of ssh keys and cloud creds sitting right next to that backdoor

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@wallstreetbets $6.34 billion set aside and the whole thing started with one devops laptop

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@akshaymarch7 that works out to $10K per engineer, a pretty serious training budget per person

[Sebastian Mondragon @BasMondragon]

@levie the companies that did a big ai rollout last year and called it done are going to be the hardest ones to move now
