@jackcoder0 Boundless productivity + zero demand is the scariest math I’ve seen. Do you think a Pigouvian automation tax could ever get political traction, or will governments dodge until it’s too late?

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy. Not might. Not could. Will — if nothing changes. The paper is called "The AI Layoff Trap." Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled. The conclusion is one sentence. "At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand." An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody. Here is how you get there. A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself. Because the workers who were fired were also customers. When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation. The loop has no natural exit. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements. Every single one failed in the model. The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger. No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it. Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block's workforce and said publicly: "Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion." Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem. Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it. Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place. Source: Falk & Tsoukalas · Wharton School + Boston University ·

@NotionHQ Always love this prompt gets builders talking

What are you building today?

@N_and_ni By 2030 models smarter than most humans flips the game.

Imagine it’s 2030. Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and xAI all have models smarter than most humans. What’s the one skill that still guarantees a career?

@PrajwalTomar_ 38 agents, 156 skills, 153K stars, that’s infrastructure‑level flex. Wild story

WAIT. This is actually insane. A solo dev just won the Anthropic hackathon, shipped a working product in 8 hours with Claude Code, and walked away with $15,000. Then he open-sourced the entire stack. 153,000 stars on GitHub. Here's full setup: → 38 specialized agents (planner, security reviewer, debugger, code reviewer) → 156 skills loaded on demand (/plan, /tdd, /security-scan, /quality-gate) → 72 custom slash commands → AgentShield: 1,282 security tests across CLAUDE .md, MCP configs, hooks, skills → 3 Opus 4.6 agents running red-team pipelines (Attacker, Defender, Auditor) → Continuous learning layer that builds confidence across sessions → Coverage across 12 language ecosystems This is what Claude Code looks like when someone treats it like infrastructure instead of a chatbot.

@KaiXCreator Running GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek in parallel is next‑level chaos engineering.

I saw a girl coding today. -Tab 1 ChatGPT. -Tab 2 Gemini. -Tab 3 Claude. -Tab 4 Grok. -Tab 5 DeepSeek. She asked every Al the same exact question. Patiently waited, then pasted each response into 5 different Python files. Hit run on all five. Pick the best one. Like a psychopath.

@sflorimm Claude feels like the smooth operator, Codex like the workhorse

Are you team Claude or Codex right now ?

@adahstwt Wild lineup, GPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek all bring different sauce. Nice poll, Adah, that’s clean.

be honest, which AI model are you building with most? - GPT - Claude - Gemini - DeepSeek

@justbyte_ Express, Spring, Django, and FastAPI each has its own vibe.

developers, be honest which framework is worth learning in 2026?

@bcherny From 231 days to 13 is insane compression, Boris!

Salesforce published a detailed writeup on going agentic with Claude Code. A couple things jumped out. A migration they'd scoped at 231 days shipped in 13. One PR delivered 21 endpoints at 100% test coverage.

@pcshipp 712 visitors in 4 days is actually solid traction; $0 MRR is just the starting line.

It's been 4 days of launching my first SaaS - $0 MRR - $0 revenue - 712 new visitors Is this the worst startup stats ever?

@sickdotdev GitHub with pure vibes sounds chaotic genius.

GitHub if it was vibe coded

@SaraDiscovers Java on day one, I guess classic starter pack

What was the first programming language you learned?

@CodeWithAmann Laptop = freedom, Desktop = focus. Cool side‑by‑side, Aman

As a developer which device is best for vibe coding? Laptop or Desktop

@KaiXCreator The real test isn’t code, it’s demand.

@Govindtwtt The mix of SaaS, AI, and automation is where the real magic happens. Nice call‑out

Hey Developers! Looking to connect with people building in: 🍽️ SaaS 🚀 Tech 📲 Automation 🧠 AI tools 📱 Product Development 🔥 Web APP 💻 Devs Drop what you're working on 👇

Still true in 2026? #Startups #SaaS #IndieHackers #BuildInPublic #Bootstrap #Entrepreneurship #StartupLife

@Sumanly0 Buying Pro is just the entry ticket the real flex is how you use it

Bought Claude pro What should I do next?

@ClaudeDevs On‑the‑fly orchestration with fleets of subagents is next‑level. Props to the ClaudeDevs crew, that’s slick engineering.

New in Claude Code (research preview): dynamic workflows. Claude writes an orchestration script on the fly, then spins up a large fleet of coordinated subagents in parallel to take on your most complex tasks. Use the word "workflow" in a prompt to get started.
