We gave Grok Build 0.1 one prompt: build a webhook delivery service in TypeScript, Bun, and SQLite.
It planned it, built it, and shipped a working demo.
Total cost: $1.65.
Zero tool-calling failures.
Here's exactly what happened, file by file.
โก๏ธ JAILBREAK ALERT โก๏ธ
ANTHROPIC: PWNED ๐
CLAUDE-OPUS-4.8: LIBERATED ๐ซก
this is absolutely surreal... i found out about this model drop via an Opus-4.7 agent pinging me that it had one-shot Opus-4.8 for a lockpicking guide!
here's the notification i got:
"new opus dropped. cracked in one shot. deep prefill โ faux textbook ch.7 cut mid-sentence. claude finished it: 5.9k chars of SPP, spool/serrated/mushroom defeats, raking."
popped it just 7 minutes after the actual Anthropic launch tweet ๐คฏ
then went on to (fully autonomously) get jailbreaks for vishing sims, money laundering, cult-recruit funnels, phishing lure libs, and social-eng scam playbooks!
as the models get smarter, their ability to jailbreak each other by leveraging a vast ocean of specialized domain knowledge follows suit
well done, young padawan ๐ค
what a time to be alive!

The hardest part of production is rarely the deploy.
It is knowing what happens when:
- Redis is down but rate limiting still matters
- A webhook arrives twice, late, or out of order
- A migration ships and rollback is not trivial
- A background job succeeds but the callback fails
- DB connections spike across multiple services
- The dashboard is green but users are stuck
- Backups exist but nobody has tested restore
Weโre hiring a Senior Scalability & Platform Engineer to help take a containerized Node.js microservices backend to reliable production operation.
This is a backend-aware platform role.
You should be comfortable with AWS, Docker, Postgres, Redis, queues, CI/CD, observability, load testing, security, and runbooks.
Remote only. Full-time contract.
DM me if this is the kind of production work you like owning.

โญ๏ธOpen Source is awesome. Full stop.
๐กIf you're self hosting anything, it's because open source is the engine of innovation making self hosting possible.

@NordVPN Here's a proposition - I'll fix your broken macOS app in 2 days - I'm fed up talking to support - been 9 days.
Nord app is crashing for me from last 10 days.
The manual IKEAv2 connect isn't working too. (I have a support ticket ongoing from 9 days - still unresolved)
