Some time in the future, it won’t be hackers vs computers, it’ll be self replicating AI based malware against fully autonomous SOC bots.

@kamilbaranek_ That’s the most moronic thing I’ve ever heard. I have a robot emoji in my profile so that means I’m a bot. You’re truly retarded, Kamal!..

BREAKING: Anthropic is making a massive bet that AI will transform the global economy more profoundly than industrialization, electricity and the internet, per Reuters.

Anthropic reported a net ‌loss of $42 billion in 2025, and plans to spend $518 billion on cloud, computing and infrastructure obligations in coming year, according to the prospectus.

@unusual_whales A guy just DM’d me this morning on LinkedIn about his 4 month old startup that does exactly this. I don’t have the heart to message him back & tell him his startup is dead now…

The company of the future is a person.

A person with a laptop, a niche, and an audience. The overhead is zero. The margins are absurd. The flexibility is total. It took a century of corporate infrastructure to make it possible. It takes one decision to walk through the door.

@unusual_whales When the abysmal sales numbers come after Christmas in Q1 2027, people will no longer be able to deny this is a depression and the economy is being propped up by AI and circular financing.

A simple cheat code for life is to just be easy to work with.

Respond quickly. Do what you said you'd do. Be pleasant.

An alarming number of people suck at all of this.

@jrya7 Reading posts like this from dried up devs that peaked in the 2010’s is like watching the dinosaurs post about the incoming asteroid that wiped them all out.

@Codie_Sanchez This is the part that is harder than most people think. And it doesn’t mean their product is bad, it means that sales and marketing are equally as important as full stack dev ops is.

@matthias_mrc $32 just my cloud server costs. I was smart enough to build with AI, but not dumb enough to bake it into my code. That’s what local models are for! 😂
