It's hard sometimes because say it's something that I wrote but someone else posted to HN, I've just had a lot of people's opinions foisted on me.

I'm relatively immune to a lot of things, but we're also entering a world where a lot of people can build and might not expect to have potentially millions of people critiquing their work to the level they do.

I think we still skew back to an insanely high input token ratio when you consider agentic loops. For example, when I see the tools I use do a web fetch or a search or other tool use, it's an incredibly high number of new input tokens.

I don't want to say Yes... but... given all of these tools are mostly built with JS and wrapped in a TUI we could probably go some way to having it run in the browser. There are fewer and fewer Node based APIs that haven't got a way to run in the browser.
