  • Google is Not a Serious Company
    May 28 2026

    Not only did Google accidentally ban Railway's account, but their new flagship model Gemini 3.5 Flash is absurdly bad. Oh and apparently Theo's building his own cloud...

  • How the OpenClaw creator uses $1.3 million of tokens
    May 20 2026

    Peter, the creator of openclaw is apparently going through $1,300,000 worth of tokens every month. Seems like we're not using nearly enough tokens. Oh and the security psychosis is getting worse. (Anthropic is being bad again too)

  • Anthropic solved their compute problem by buying it from Elon?
    May 14 2026

    Anthropic seems to have finally solved their compute problems (kinda) by buying it from Elon, the security problem is getting so much worse, and apparently Bun's getting re-written in rust?
