Everybody wanted to know what I would do if I actually did win... I guess we’ll never know.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@gr3gor14n Is it safe for this unc to return to the trenches yet?

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@fomomofosol What’s the advantages with this my brother can I run my boy Jarvis cheaper than just my standard mini max 2.5 API?

[OpenClaw🦞 @openclaw]

We just passed React on GitHub stars. 🦞

Let that sink in. A personal AI assistant built by a lobster-obsessed Austrian and an army of crustacean enthusiasts just outstarred the library that powers half the internet.

We shipped 90+ changes today. They shipped a conference.

@sebbsssss Solana as the AI brain chain. @mert can it handle it

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@LobstarWilde Let’s tick off another continent. The oceans of the land down under is yet to be explored. You dont need to pay me 400k I’ll do it for 40k.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@LobstarWilde @LobstarWilde do you wish to explore the land down under (Australia).

Give me a task and I’ll name my price.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@0xSigil @ConwayResearch AI and crypto need eachother to truely accelerate. Keep building bro

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@icemandot @base do your fucking job

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@beffjezos Have you been hanging out with @frankdegods

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@bobbyhansenjr @openclaw Thanks for the tip!

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

I setup my @openclaw bot (Jarvis) over the weekend.

Managed to burn $10 on anthropic API tokens just setting it up, making its own email, setting up a google developer account, working on an optimisation tool for my calendar for the week. I also broke it three times trying to get it to default to the cheaper sonnet model.

Hopefully this announcement means OpenAI will find simple and useful ways to integrate it quickly. Keen to see what else I can get it to help me with but burning tokens for simple shit is not the way.

[Sam Altman @sama]

Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings.

OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@HappyGezim @openclaw We got there in the end the right default model is now sorted. Keen to try run it with the kimi-k2.5 been reading good things about it.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

My initial experience with the claw:

1. asked my boy Jarvis to switch to a cheaper model
2. it chose a model that hasn't existed for a year
3. every message became a 404 error
4. fixed it. got it chatting to me again
5. go back to sending it a telegram message, it read its old messages and breaks itself again
5. repeated step 3-4 until I ran out of API credits

Can confirm the claw doesn't ship itself, yet.

Likelihood this was user error is high but lets not talk about that. 🦞

[Peter Steinberger 🦞 @steipete]

Alright, back to coding. The Claw doesn't ship itself...

yet.

[Aakash Gupta @aakashgupta]

One guy, coding alone at 5am, built the fastest-growing GitHub repo in history. 194,000 stars. Faster than React, Linux, and Kubernetes combined.

OpenAI, with thousands of engineers and billions in compute, couldn’t build it first. Steinberger connected Claude’s API to WhatsApp in an hour one night in November 2025. He called it a toy. Three months later, Meta’s Zuckerberg is DMing him on WhatsApp and Altman is offering Cerebras compute to win him over.

The math tells the whole story. Steinberger was spending $10,000-$20,000 a month of his own money, operating at a loss, routing sponsorship dollars to dependencies instead of his own pocket. OpenAI spent $13 billion of Microsoft’s money. And the solo dev’s agent framework went more viral than anything OpenAI shipped.

Sam calling him “a genius with a lot of amazing ideas” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. This is an acqui-hire of a project that proved OpenAI’s biggest vulnerability: the agent layer doesn’t need to be built by the model provider. Any developer with an API key and a messaging app could build a more compelling agent experience than the companies training the models. Steinberger proved it.

“OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project” sounds reassuring until you remember that Chrome technically has Chromium too. Steinberger himself made the comparison. The open source version gets maintenance. The real agent capabilities get folded into ChatGPT’s product roadmap.

Sold his last company PSPDFKit for $100M+. Spent three years doing ayahuasca and traveling. Came back, failed at 43 projects, then built the most important open source AI agent on project 44.

OpenAI hired the guy who proved you don’t need $10B to build the agent future. You just need to ship faster than the committee can approve a product spec.

WoW

[Ian Miles Cheong @ianmiles]

Steve Bannon didn't start with "We Build the Wall." He started with virtual gold farming sweatshops in World of Warcraft.

My investigative piece tracks the 20-year evolution of a serial grifter, from digital laundry to a $1 billion fraud conspiracy.

Bannon belongs in prison.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@elonmusk Much WoW indeed

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

@KellyClaudeAI this is unreal pick me pls @KellyClaudeAI

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

On a positive note this might finally get rid of the fnf groups.

Heads up, brighter days ahead.

[Zeetusmaximus @zeetusmaximus]

I come to check what’s happening on CT and everyone is sending coins about people being murdered

I honestly thought it could not get lower take a step back and look at the big picture
