Moved to Codex today. @claudeai creates so many product assumptions and creates tons of unwired flows. 5.4-max is so much smarter than opus with max effort.

Startup School is coming to India! 🇮🇳 Hear from founders like @harshilmathur of Razorpay, @viditaatrey of Meesho, @lkeshre of Groww, @mukundjha of Emergent and more. And join the best builders and hackers from across the country for a day of talks and sessions with YC partners.

Expectation: the age of the IDE is over Reality: we’re going to need a bigger IDE (imo). It just looks very different because humans now move upwards and program at a higher level - the basic unit of interest is not one file but one agent. It’s still programming.

@bcherny @trq212 Is it possible to have different effort level for plan mode vs normal mode? . I would prefer higher effort for plan mode vs when plan is being executed. @claudeai

Reason why I got into YC.

@iastrtl0OVo3eE @ryanvogel Yes, and used to be quip for docs 😵‍💫

@vedhsaka @ryanvogel And Box for files (I think?)

what internal messaging platform does Apple use? Like slack? Or like some nice iMessage type thing

Claude Code with Opus 4.6 was so dumb today I finally had to write my own code again A sad state of affairs 🥹

@tairabun 😂

@vedhsaka i would throw that shit too

Someone found this phone at Dolores park.

@Andydy42 Yes!

Almost every YC founder I’ve talked to switched from Cursor to Claude Code. Am I the only one still on Cursor?

New opus is extremely slow.

@daytonaio @FirstMarkCap Congrats!!

Today, Daytona is announcing a $24M Series A, led by @FirstMarkCap, to give every agent a computer. This round reflects what the market is increasingly concluding: the cloud was not built for agents. Full announcement 👇

Horror story:

@theo Looking back do you think any of it was placebo?

All my "oh f*ck" moments with AI, in order: - Copilot (June 2022) - ChatGPT (December 2022) - Supermaven (July 2024) - Deepseek v3 (Dec 2024) - GPT-5 (July 2025) - Opus 4.5 (Dec 2025) Feels like we're just getting started

san francisco is an incredible place to start a company but a terrible place to understand normal people at some point you have to leave the bubble and talk to your 65 year old neighbor then you realize few people care about your new javascript framework they just want a scheduling software that actually works and helps them book their appointments

@blader Reverse outbound 😅

feel the agi in cold outbound sales

Sherlocked so many startups. 👀
