Good point. Wouldn't be good if there were white hat models being developed by legitimate organizations at this point?

Really dumb question from a software guy. Why aren't the labs burning their frontier models into chips already? Seems like the performance gains and cost per request would be worth it. That said, I understand neither the economics nor the physical challenges to doing this.

Here’s an experiment: purchase an anthropic pro max subscription for $200/m. Now go buy the hardware to run DeepSeek’s equivalent. In a year, who spent more?

It’s not. Do it as a hobby or for privacy but for performance just use a frontier model api. You’re paying less than cost for something that would take tens of thousands to set up locally.

Honest question. Who got to decide to accept this decision on behalf of state and federal citizens? This seems performative rather than punitive and doesn’t seem to match the harm.

My father was a plumber in the 80s and bought our family an Amiga 1000 for $1,200. Today thats about $3800 in inflation adjusted money. I just bought my son a top of the line pc for $2,000. I get that it used to be cheaper, but value is still relatively good for these machines.

When you become a parent, your risk profile changes immensely. I can hire some of the world’s best people tomorrow if i can promise them equal salary, benefits and retirement accounts for a set number of years. Plus the benefit of a large upside if it works. Most startups offer lower salaries and abysmal benefits. Security matters.

Well said. I hope some day to make it and start parent.capital a place where parents can get funding. I believe there are thousands of people out there with great ideas and immense talent who are unable to leave their salary and benefits behind to pursue them.

Thanks for all your open source work. You changed the industry for the better. Are you thinking of building a Github competitor? I would find that very appealing.

If you’re going this far, why even have a cli? Just have your agent grab the openapi spec from the server and set envvars. It can curl its way around happily. Security? I don’t see how this is any more or less secure than any other claude code workflow.

It seems we've round about rediscovered apis.

I tried this with datadog and it can build high quality monitoring notebooks for the pr im working on in a single shot.
