new virality metric is github stars now and not youtube views pretext vs leaked claude code vs openclaw

@iamsachin_47 from galgotia university?

BharatCode coming soon! 💀🔥

@championswimmer Muted 2 days back when he tweeted this

This account is run by his errant OpenClaw right?

@Yuchenj_UW Would have reached 100k by now

@testinprodcap 😂😂😂

claude code is only like 500k lines of code, garry tan could knock it out in about a week

@GergelyOrosz has it crossed 30k stars already

@GergelyOrosz could have kept it like that x.com/a1pesh/status/…

This is either brilliant or scary: Anthropic accidentally leaked the TS source code of Claude Code (which is closed source). Repos sharing the source are taken down with DMCA. BUT this repo rewrote the code using Python, and so it violates no copyright & cannot be taken down!

@ForrestPKnight 😂

Meanwhile, Garry Tan: “uh, only 390k LOC?? I can code this whole thing in a week!”

@ChShersh Yes, you are the only one.

Wait, am I the only one who thought all this time that Claude Code was already open-sourced? Why would you feed all your private data into a closed-source project?

I wonder if we ever gonna have gangnam style effect where # of stars breaks github’s unit like int if any project ever reaches 1 billion stars

@tryclawhost 🖕

@a1pesh Github stars definitely say a lot about a project’s developer love. OpenClaw has over 5000 skills and you can run it fully on your own server with ClawHost, no limits just control. Makes trying it out and scaling easy.

@icanvardar x.com/a1pesh/status/…

claude code uses axios 😭

axiom = CrowdStrike

@championswimmer rentahuman

Conspiracy theory: They leaked it so that real humans can finally review the code. Since they do not read or review the code themselves at all. Now they ask us to do it for them for free.

@realsigridjin @Fried_rice Hmmm

@Fried_rice i backed the source up on my github github.com/instructkr/cla…

Claude code source code has been leaked via a map file in their npm registry! Code: …a8527898604c1bbb12468b1581d95e.r2.dev/src.zip

@davidbyttow @bnj @variantui 😂

@bnj @variantui hopefully this will make the demos stop

If you're feeling left out, you can one-shot Pretext demos like these super easily in @variantui Just paste this style code into your prompt: --sref 028aba

Anthropic just pulled the oldest trick in SaaS pricing. I pay $200/mo for Claude Max. My limits have been noticeably worse this past week. Now they announce 2x off-peak usage for two weeks. Sounds generous. But here’s what actually happens: limits quietly drop, a temporary 2x makes the reduced limit feel normal, the promo ends, and you’re left at a baseline lower than where you started. You just didn’t notice the downgrade because the 2x absorbed the transition. These AI plans are massively subsidized. The raw compute behind a heavy user costs multiples of the subscription price. Every move like this is the subsidy quietly correcting. Very sneaky, Anthropic.

@acxtrila Lol 😂

and it looks like this 2007 wordpress ass website

How tf are you adding 78k more LOC to a newsletter website

@GergelyOrosz It makes sense to reinvent the wheel

I am happy to see a lot more "build vs buy" discussions happening across more tech companies. As in "should we buy leading models [like OpenAI, Anthropic] and be dependent on their pricing and reliability, or should we build+own our inference stack on top of open models?"

I feel compelled to explain the difference here, having used these systems all the way back to almost Corel WordPerfect The idea of laying out text isn't new (after all, browsers do it). but exposing the programmability makes a huge system-level difference. What you're seeing on the iPad is a _data structure format_, not functions Hypothetically, if you try to add scriptability to Pages/Word/Google Docs, your complexity explodes, and a picture of giraffe is now kinda turing-complete, and paradoxically but obviously, you gradually lose the ability to lay out such pages, as there are hard trade-offs in performance, serializability, programming model where scripting will take priority It's also not a surprise that the most interactive platform of all, aka games, somehow drastically clamp on textual capabilities. Many are still baking text textures and using English-only MSDF bc otherwise text complexity takes over and you can't do other cool things anymore (Slug just got open-sourced and is excellent, so hopefully there's movement there). There's one platform that did start as a document format, then tackled a scripting language on top, and is precisely in the aforementioned complex spot: the web. And it's complex past the point of diminishing return. But my hope is that there's a simple core there, this time an interpreter instead of data format (I wish Alan Kay was on X to chat about this), that we can restart taking seriously The inspiration that this is possible, comes from another famous platform which evolved from a document format into an interactive one: iOS. If you trace the lineage, you'd find that it started with PostScript (made for printers! Even more static than HTML), and then through centralized stewardship, gently parted ways with it and became a serious and polished platform. The web didn't have that luck, but did win on distribution and openness, so here we are!
