Maybe the Delve founders are genuine psychopaths. Maybe they set out to defraud people from day one. But they're 21. Both of them. Basically kids. More likely: they got into YC, got surrounded by people telling them to move fast and break things, grow at all costs, fake it till you make it, and so on. They wanted to impress their batchmates, their partners, the alumni network, their parents. So they pushed too hard and broke things they shouldn't have broken. YC selects for this. They want young naive founders who are aggressive, ambitious, a little reckless. They celebrate the ones who bend the rules and win. When a 21 year old bends the rules and loses, suddenly it's a "trust" issue and they get a cold three-sentence farewell on Bookface. No mentorship. No "hey, you're heading in a dangerous direction." No community stepping in before it got this far. Just "we asked them to leave, we wish them well." That's not a community. That's a machine that takes credit for your wins and disowns you when you mess up.

While I think what Anthropic does is sad for the ecosystem, I wanna give Boris credit for doing what he can to soften the fallout. Today's release will include some fixes for better cache use, to lower cost for API users.

We're big fans of open source. I actually just put up a few PRs to improve prompt cache efficiency for OpenClaw specifically. This is more about engineering constraints. Our systems are highly optimized for one kind of workload, and to serve as many people as possible with the most intelligent models, we are continuing to optimize that. When you use an API key or overages it should still work. The issue was just subs. If you still want to cancel, we're giving full refunds. We know not everyone realized this isn't something we support, and this is an attempt to make it clear and explicit.

We’re a few weeks away from where there will be no designers or engineers, but a third secret thing
