If you are attending @wasm_io today do make sure to drop by mine and @bcamerongain's talk at 13:50 in the auditorium around @HelmPack v4 and @extism

For the last 3 years, I've joined @wasm_io for a yearly ritual in March. Though this year, despite having a talk, I won't be able to present in person. But you can still catch me presenting virtually with @bcamerongain in person, covering extending the @HelmPack plugin ecosystem with Wasm and @extism.

I've experienced something that makes me want to stop all my AI agent coding use: 1) I see elevated "Overloaded" and 529 errors from Anthropic. 2) I check and, yes, Anthropic is down. I then legitimately feel like I can't do anything. Crippled. And before you reply "har har skill issue!", I'm ex-faang, have nearly 10+ years of experience building cloud and infra technologies, successfully exited a startup last year, and I maintain open source software you rely on every single day. And yet, I feel crippled when I can't rely on the big ol "agent do a thing" button. Over the last 2 months, building a new company with my co-founder, I've leaned in: like, REALLY leaned in. Probably 90% of what we've been shipping has been AI generated - it's not all perfect but it's been a really good way to go from 0 to 1 and get early validation in the market. But, if I can't rely on tokens, if I feel crippled by a lack of inference providers, where does that leave me? Have I outsourced my thinking and abilities to AI and, at worst, companies who want to sap my intelligence for a chance to keep me dependent? This is no different with open weight models on local hardware: what happens if a GPU falls of the rack (and trust me, this hardware dies all the time, back when we operated a whole T4 GPU inference RAG pipeline, these would die and get dropped from the cluster all the time)? Open weight models also aren't open source: I can't study the model or its training data, I can't reproduce it, I can't make modifications, ad the licensing is anything but free (as in freedom). This is like having an IDE that has a very very steep price to pay AND is dependent on cloud services to be "on". I don't think this is a good paradigm for the industry at large.

I still haven’t seen OpenClaw do anything that impresses me. It’s just a wrapper around Claude Code or any LLM provider, what’s the big deal?

I can't believe @sergialmar fell for it! This year I'm honored and humbled to be on the @wasm_io stage for a panel! Come and watch me blabber and stutter, while @oscar_spen, @juntao and @d_philla actually say something smart about… 🥁 "Running AI in Wasm"

@evacchi It’s a shame you didn’t ship it earlier. You gave up the first-mover advantage to GStack.

sorry, no, I'm not just writing text in a box, it's called "tweet engineering"

A lot of people say that vibe coding burns them out more than a regular programming. It's because of the toxic anti-zone that you get into by constantly pulling the lever. You get in a state similar to that of gambling addicts. It fries your brain. Real flow state is energizing and rewarding, because it makes you truly deeply understand the system you're working on. You have real control, and your brain feels safe.
