Ok but when?
We’re renaming our Max plans: Max 5x → Max Max 20x → Ultra Max is still $100/month, and Ultra is still $200. If you’re a subscriber, there’s nothing you need to do. We’re also removing the 5-hour limit for verified Ultra accounts, starting today with most existing subscribers. Newer accounts keep a temporary limit until they’re verified, which helps us prevent fraud and abuse. You'll get an email when it's removed. Weekly limits remain unchanged. View our plans here: claude.com/pricing

Matan and the entire Factory team are the most impressive people I've ever met. Congrats on the acquisition!
Thrilled to welcome @Yoni_Michael, @KostasPardalis, and the @typedef_ai team to Factory. People often over-index on the code generation step. Enterprise agents live or die by the data. Nobody understands that problem better than the Typedef team.

7 PRs already.... Open Source is the way. Wait until you see what I'm cooking next 😈 No software is safe.

At some point it'll be cheaper to burn tokens 24/7 building and maintaining your own software than to pay a subscription fee to SaaS.

What's the right word for the joy feel knowing I don't have to use a company's bloated, over-monetized, garbage software anymore? Is it the same word for when I give my creations to the world for free?

Annndddd Google is in the lead.... Absurd gains from Argon to Carbon.
Introducing Gemini 4 Carbon, it's a big jump over Argon which we released just 2 weeks ago. Gemini 4 Carbon is SOTA on cyber, long horizon tasks, ranks #1 on Artificial Analysis V5, significantly improves on usability in domains like coding, and is more aligned.

Concerning how eager my wife was to splash a bucket of cold water on my face
Insanely fun video to make with channel partner @eightsleep. They didn't pay me to post it here but was proud of the work @ForwardEditor, @The_Alex, and I did for this video so wanted to share it. Btw I'm obsessed with my Eight Sleep and if you care about getting great sleep, you should get one. Use code MATTHEWBERMAN for $200 off the new Pod 6.
