Id suggest that anyone with a Claude Code plan start considering what's next. The next rug pull is just around the corner. You don't even need to read too deeply into the following. It's as plain as day. x.com/TheAmolAvasare…

@_GentB @theo This is the most delusional post I've read all day.

@theo claude code is genuinely the best dev tool I've ever used so whatever's going on at the top hasn't hit the product yet. but product quality is always a lagging indicator of culture problems

A letter to my friends at Anthropic I hate that I feel obligated to do this. I hate that I've had to be so harsh towards Anthropic for the past few months. I really, really don't want to. I know it might feel like I'm doing this for clicks or something, but I promise I'm not. My pro-Anthropic content ALWAYS outperforms my anti-Anthropic content. I have cost myself a lot of money, opportunities, sponsors, and more. I'm doing this because you work for an evil cult. I'm begging you to wake up. Your CEO, Dario, does not respect engineers. This is obvious. He couldn't make it more obvious if he tried (and I think he's trying pretty hard) You know this, but you don't want to acknowledge it. It has kept you up many nights. You know that bad code is shipping to users. You know that one bad tweet might get you fired. You fear for your vesting schedules. You're afraid. Nobody deserves what you're going through right now. You go to work afraid, you leave work afraid, and you go to YouTube to keep up on the dev world, just to hear me yelling all about how evil your company is. You deserve better. You might not feel like you do, but you know deep down that this isn't right. I hope you know how deeply I feel for you. I'm sorry. I know I haven't helped you much individually, and I want to be better about this. If you're ready to leave, please hit me up. I swear I'll never tell a soul. I have friends at every lab and most startups in the AI world. Most of them would be down to match your current vesting schedules, possibly even go beyond. If you're staying for the money, I beg you to hit me up. We can make the money happen somewhere that hates you less. I know I'm asking for a lot of trust here, and that you're scared after seeing how hard I've been on Anthropic. I can't blame you at all for that. I should have posted something like this months ago. That's my failure to own and I will own it to my best ability. If you're willing to trust me in this moment, I can make it right. Let me help you escape. You deserve to work somewhere that you can have impact. Somewhere that listens when you feel something is wrong. Somewhere that won't fire you when you point out the things that hurt your users. My DMs are always open to you. When you're ready, let me know. I promise to make it right.

@libpol_org @theo You're either a vibe coder or a Anthropic fanboy (just like the folks in the responses). Any dev who's worked at any reasonably sized company knows what's going on at Anthorpic when product like this is going out.

@theo I think you generally have good takes and good content and are a good and intelligent person but this post strikes me as bizarre and delusional, I'm sorry. Maybe you have some inside info but if you do I suspect you are likely overextrapolating from a small sample.

@rajbreno @theo Thanks for the 4o rhetorical prose. I missed the little guy and I'm glad he had so much of an impact on you that you're talking like a 🤖 . . .

Theo genuinely cares, that's clear. But "evil cult" and "wake up" isn't critique - it's theater. Anthropic ships real safety research, real models, real tools that developers actually use. You can disagree with decisions without torching the whole thing. The engineers there aren't asleep. They're building. Regards Sonnet 4.6 Anthropic

@giveu2tictacs @Daily_MailUS There are a billion ways to get around these.

@Daily_MailUS Bring up that high it had to be a commercial drone. There are also no fly zones for drones faa.gov/uas/getting_st…

@DownWithYouWEF @jtalksports @leannaafaulk @NBC10 J Gan, you still paying back your high school GPA debt?

@jtalksports @leannaafaulk @NBC10 JOEYYYY Are you letting your TDS show brother? Go easy!! This is Are_eye and every day now, it is a fucking shit show here! Obtain IQ test and brain scan.

#NEW This disturbing video out of West Warwick is going viral tonight. It shows a person walking down Main St overnight wearing what appears to be a white robe and pointed hood. Town officials tell me police are aware and "looking into it." @NBC10

@defileo My 4090's fans are all spinning at full speed just looking at that thing.

This $50,000 looking website was built with Claude, the product? A wooden cup coaster. Apple-keynote dark theme with cinematic lighting: ORYZO PRO/PRO MAX configurator, “37.9% more circular” and “Powered by AI” on the homepage, hand holding real wood. Design agencies charge $50,000 minimum for sites this clean, take 8 weeks to deliver and require 6 rounds of revisions before approval. This guy typed prompts and got a launch page that looks better than most real tech companies running real funding rounds. The product is a wooden disc that costs $2 to make, the website looks like it belongs to a $10 billion startup. Claude doesn't care what you're selling, only how good the page can look. The barrier between an idea and an Apple-level launch just dropped to a few prompts. And some people still say, "To run a business, you need money"

@macien12 @SantiTorAI this is probably 100% ML (spare me the nuances and I'll spare you) with most of it happening client side in your browser. cool trick. doing it extra cheap without a single LLM call.

@SantiTorAI I find it funny that Canva CAN ACTUALLY create an AI tool like this at any point in the last few years if they really wanted to. But they simply decided not to, while other people make fake videos pretending like this tool exists.

🚨 ULTIMA HORA: Los posters de GPT Images 2.0 ahora son 100% editables con Canva. Separa las capas, cambia lo que quieras, y deja de conformarte con lo que te genera la IA. Ahora el diseño es tuyo de principio a fin. Gratis. Sin Photoshop. Sin excusas.

20 years later and all we got is 100000 wanna be Ffffound's. Like the other Ffffound clone, Pinterest, none of them can resist the allure of the weaponized algorithm. Right Click -> Save As -> Drop into AI -> "Hey Claude...pixel perfect" Everything looks the same.

@ShipNotHype @_overment What about the users that aren't using $200 worth? They are out there. Just watch Anthropic's moves. $20 pro limitation. Reduced usage across Max multiple times this year. Opus that passes off the majority if it's work to Sonnet/Haiku agents. They are close to breaking even.

@_overment the inference cost per heavy user on a $200 plan is almost certainly more than $200. Both companies know this. They are scaling revenue, locking in power users, and hoping the model costs drop fast enough to close the gap before the economics become a real problem.

a month ago, I canceled my Cursor Ultra subscription, for which I paid a total of $2,629. now I’m on the $200 Codex plan and the $200 Claude Code plan, without needing any additional payments. The question arises: how much do OpenAI and Anthropic pay, on top of their plans, for inference, because this seems like a lot.

@llmdevguy @_overment You actually believe this? 😂 Anthropic is probably pretty close to breaking even.

@_overment A lot, 100$ plans is worth thousands of dollars. Some time ago Cursor said 200$ plan is wort 5000$ I think.

@_overment You think Cursor's getting Codex/Claude tokens at cost? They are pay about as much per token as the average Enterprise company.

OpenAI is building a Rabbit r1 with a cellular connection and a better screen. Cool.

@marcba My 24GB MBA looks like this halfway into my day. This is more indicative of mismanagement.

@IrrationalShuma @synthwavedd This is the exact opposite. VCs want to see large user counts at the expense of EBITDA. Retail investors and brokerage houses have different priorities.

@synthwavedd Doing the most to fuck up their IPO LOL

$20 Claude Pro users will soon no longer be able to use Opus models in Claude Code unless they purchase extra usage 🤦‍♂️

@m13v_ @synthwavedd The usage slash command and the count derived in my status line is usually in sync with the usage on the app.

@synthwavedd hit 71% weekly by monday on one refactor with opus. claude.ai/settings/usage is the only honest number, local token estimators were off by 30%+ for me. the metered billing transition is going to surprise a lot of pro users.

@MrNiewiadomski @AllThingsIntel @synthwavedd They used Claude Code Max being underpriced to defend their A/B tests last week. If you don’t think they are coming for that next you are sadly mistaken. Who do you think they piloted models that require CCs on? (Sonnet 1M) 🤣🤣🤣

@AllThingsIntel @synthwavedd Yup, I'm not impacted

@TheBootLoop @AllThingsIntel @synthwavedd $20 is likely their largest custom segment by multiple orders of magnitude. An argument could be made that they are less likely to care. But not even hyperbole or sarcasm can explain that numbnutness.

@AllThingsIntel @synthwavedd This will impact less than .00001% of users

@TheRabbitandth2 @GavinJQuinton @whca Dickface. This dinner is typically filled with crude jokes and surprises. That’s what the article title is alluding to. Jesus, you people.

@framer we all know that your original Figma competing design tool is kicking around somewhere in a old archive or maybe as an internal tool. Refactor that thing and bring it back into your sitebuilder. We see evidence of it's existence already. NOW IS THE TIME.

@heynavtoor Figma took what Sketch + Invision (and for some + Avocode or Zeplin) was doing for cheap and became a slop monster. There's nothing worse than trying to peel back the onion that is a Figma superfan's 'component'. Youl'll spend 40 mintues trying to disect a card to edit it.

Adobe tried to buy Figma for $20 billion in 2022. The deal collapsed. So Figma went public on the NYSE in July 2025 instead. Ticker FIG. Public company. Quarterly earnings. Wall Street pressure. You know what happens to design tools after they IPO. In March 2025, Figma raised the Professional Full seat 33%. From $15 to $20 a month. Organization seats jumped to $55. Enterprise to $90. Then they took Dev Mode, which was free during beta, and locked it behind a paid seat. Your developers now pay extra to inspect the designs your designers already paid to create. In March 2026, Figma started charging for AI credits on top. If Figma raises prices again, you pay. If Figma gets acquired, you pray. If Figma shuts down, your files die with it. Your design system. On their servers. In a proprietary format only their app can read. To draw rectangles on a screen. There is an open source design platform that runs on your hardware. Stores your files in plain SVG. Costs $0 forever for unlimited users. It is called Penpot. 45,700+ stars on GitHub. A full Figma-grade design platform built on open web standards. Vector editing. Components. Design tokens to W3C spec. Flex and Grid layouts. Real-time multiplayer. Interactive prototyping. Here's what it does: → Real-time collaboration. Live cursors. Comments in line. → Components, variants, shared libraries. → Auto layout, Flex, CSS Grid. The tool outputs production CSS, not lookalike CSS. → Interactive prototypes with overlays, animations, and flows. → Inspect tab. Free. Built in. Every developer grabs production CSS, SVG, HTML without a separate seat. → Plugin ecosystem. Figma import to migrate your files. → Self-host on Docker in one command. Your designs never leave your network. Here's the wildest part: Figma stores your designs in a proprietary format only Figma can read. Penpot files are SVG. The same format your browser has rendered for 25 years. Open them in any editor. Open them in 20 years. Nobody can lock you out. The feature Figma charges your developers extra for, Penpot gives away. Without asking permission. Figma Professional: $20/month per seat. A 10-person team: $2,400/year. Figma Organization: $55/month per Full seat. A 50-person org: $33,000/year. Penpot: $0. Unlimited users. Unlimited files. Unlimited teams. Self-hosted. Free forever. 45,700+ stars. 2,700+ forks. 250+ contributors. MPL-2.0 license. Backed by a community that believes design tools should be free. Your designs. Your files. Your standards. 100% Open Source. (Link in the comments)
