@artman That’s our biggest hurdle with Linear atm tbh, the rest of the org doesn’t have good insight into product unless we start buying them all licenses to have access or build a custom dashboard with data from Linear. Or possibly there’s something we’re just not getting.

@adjohu @linear Have you guys written anything about how you implemented your dev tools and learnings from it? Considering doing that for our app as well, seems like a nice direction.

@levelsio The “we don’t give up here” hits home. Friction != stop what you’re doing. It means figure it out.

@levelsio It’s an important status symbol for people who have a need for that. Doubt it’ll go away. Also I think Jason is still pretty far from being a billionaire (a few hundred mill iirc)

@tunguz This take doesn’t rly make sense imo. The cost of intelligence keeps decreasing at an insane rate. o1 was very expensive. Now comparable models are very cheap. Labs also have an insane incentive to subsidize use while they work towards AGI.

Try to build as much code as possible over the next few months. The prices you are seeing now for AI will probably not last too long.
Hedgie@HedgieMarkets

🦔Microsoft canceled its internal Claude Code licenses this week after token-based billing made the cost untenable, even for a company with effectively infinite cloud resources. Uber's CTO sent an internal memo warning the company burned through its entire 2026 AI budget in just four months. American AI software prices have jumped 20% to 37%, and GitHub (owned by Microsoft) is dropping flat-rate plans for usage-based billing across its products. My Take The AI subsidy era is ending in real time. The same company that put $13 billion into OpenAI and built the Azure infrastructure powering most of Anthropic's compute just looked at the bill from a competitor's coding tool and decided it was not worth paying. That is not a productivity failure on Anthropic's end. Token-based pricing is forcing every enterprise customer to confront the actual cost of running these models at scale, and the number turns out to be far higher than the flat-rate experiments suggested. This ties directly to my Gemini Flash post yesterday. Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google all raised effective prices in the last six months. Enterprises that built workflows assuming AI costs would keep falling are now watching annual budgets evaporate in months. Two outcomes look likely from here. Either enterprises scale back AI usage to fit budgets, which slows the revenue ramp the labs need to justify their valuations ahead of IPOs, or the labs cut prices and absorb the losses, which makes the unit economics worse at exactly the wrong moment. Both paths land in the same place, the numbers stop working, and somebody has to take the writedown. Hedgie🤗

I really want to love Claude Dispatch, but it’s so confusing to use. No clue what it’s working on, the status of it, etc.

Its sad how reading comments on posts is now useless because 95% are pure AI slop. Also interesting how basic pattern recognition makes it easy to spot even when they try to system prompt it into not being obvious.

@elonmusk Honestly too little too late.. why don’t you aim for the next obvious step rather than chasing Claude code and codex? Build the factory.

@xai I don’t get why Elon is just chasing the other players, and not building the next obvious orchestrator/factory stage. Old Elon would have seen it and done it. Factory + insane usage limits would see huge growth

@solo21jordan @lydiahallie I’m spending way more than the $200 sub on API usage in addition. My point is that the $200 sub gives you back the full cost in API credits plus gives you a 25x subsidized usage of their harness. And you’re all still complaining they’re not giving you enough.

@howitdobe @lydiahallie Because you are using the product in the least productive way. Automating your workflows and stepping out of the loop is where the real unlock is and even Anthropic admits that. In fact I'd argue you are wasting money with the $200 max plan with how you're using it.

To add some clarity: you don't pay extra. It's the same subscription, same price per month. What's new our sub now covers two separate pools: · Interactive → sub limits, unchanged · Programmatic → new $20–$200 included(!!) credit, metered at API rates

Starting June 15, paid Claude plans can claim a dedicated monthly credit for programmatic usage. The credit covers usage of: - Claude Agent SDK - claude -p - Claude Code GitHub Actions - Third-party apps built on the Agent SDK

If any SaaS your business relies on gets bought up by PE, start looking for a replacement ASAP

@anetdotdigital @trq212 I had to switch to Claude desktop version to get the chrome extension to work reliably. Spent a day troubleshooting it in terminal until I just gave up.

Yo @nikitabier the onboarding flow on x is subpar. SMS never arrives, copying the mail OTP from the clipboard fails so need to type it manually. on the view of adding accs to follow, if you scroll down to load more it just reloads the same ones. feels sloppy.

what happened with all the hype of replacing support departments with AI? coding is all the hype now, but Claude Agent to solve tickets and Elevenlabs to handle first line incoming calls could now easily reduce the load by 80%

people buying Mac Minis to run an AI agent really shows you just how dumb most of them are. a good signal for anyone with imposter syndrome lol

a skill that doesn’t seem easily replaceable by AI is product taste. it surprises me how many devs have completely trash product taste. it’s a blocker for most.

one of the biggest blockers for an org to take advantage of AI is the fact 80% of devs hate AI. the winners will be the ones who can inspire their teams to fully adopt it the fastest.

historically, products scale with teams handling parts of the product. why aren’t we thinking like that with agents yet? imagine having a handful of agents responsible for a small part of a product, conceptually similar to a microservice.
