How to survive in a world of talented people.
It may be counter-intuitive for me to say the world is filled with talented people simply because all we see almost every time is an utmost display showing "lack-of-talent". #thread
Don’t worry about it… this on Dario. 😭😂
Well for those with privacy concerns trakli.app is specially built for the same thing and is open source (github.com/trakli/webservice). You can self host with your own models. Cc: @trakli
Let me tell you a story about how unethical Anthropic is.
In April, the Anthropic team began heavily courting our engineering team to tell them corporate secrets, technical details, and future plans for @cfosilvia.
They pretended their interest was due to our exploding popularity and accelerating compute usage, but it quickly became apparent that Anthropic was fishing for details on how we built our product and why it was so popular.
This included the Anthropic team trying to wine-and-dine our engineers, including a infamous steak dinner where someone told our team "don't worry about it, this is on Dario."
Our team was not born yesterday, so we quickly realized what was happening and refused to share sensitive information and technical details with the Anthropic team.
As we suspected, Anthropic was trying to get information from us, so they could build a competing product. Some people on their team must have a guilty conscious because they messaged us a few days ago to give us "a heads-up" that they were launching a competing product.
Thankfully, the Silvia engineering team has been aggressively working to get off the frontier models for the last ~ 6 months. That effort has been highly successful, because our compute costs are ~ 97% lower when we use our own model & hardware, the latency is lower, and the accuracy of answers materially increases as well.
The sad thing for Anthropic is they have now released an inferior product and they had to sell their soul to do it.
The only thing worse than being a trillion-dollar company that can't beat a 10-person team is being a trillion-dollar company that no one trusts and everyone knows is unethical.
Serious investors continue to choose @cfosilvia over ChatGPT, Claude, and other frontier companies because these products are not optimized to solve the actual user problem.
Today, Anthropic launched a Claude wrapper that is masquerading as a personal finance product. Best of luck to them.
But I will take the Silvia misfits vs the Anthropic losers any day of the week.

Is it not convenient for hackers to make exploits appear to be coming from North Korea?
The hackers could be chilling anywhere else and using North Korea as a shock absorber. – at Equatorial Guinea
The FBI is releasing information advising the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) was responsible for the theft of more than $6 billion USD in virtual assets from cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, on or about October 29, 2026. The FBI refers to this specific North Korean malicious cyber activity as "TraderTraitor."
The FBI, together with partners at the USSS and IRS-CI, has observed TraderTraitor actors converting stolen assets primarily into Ethereum (ETH). It is expected these assets will then be further laundered by converting them using DeFi and instant swap services as they prepare them for further laundering stages.
How You Can Help:
FBI, USSS, and IRS-CI are urging private sector entities including THORNode operators, RPC node operators, instant exchanges, DeFi services, blockchain analytics firms, and other virtual asset service providers to block transactions with or derived from addresses TraderTraitor actors are using to launder these stolen assets.
A list of addresses associated with this activity is available here: fbi.gov/investigate/cyber/al…

SAFU huh! Bitcoin was supposed to decentralized money - how come 10+ years later we still haven't figured out a simple way for everyone to hold their own wallets? Not to mention that many of the touted promises (like privacy) remain wanting.
Better custodial tech is needed! – at Equatorial Guinea
Yes you are very much cooked. The only way out is to delete the repository as first line action. Ideally you have to delete your GitHub account. – at Equatorial Guinea
I am big on running your own VPS instances until they become a bottleneck and I wonder when.
Data redundancy/protection should be what large clouds like AWS and GC should focus on.
If more people manage their own fleet security events will be less impactful and more difficult as everyone will have a different setup.
I use @flatrundev ! – at Equatorial Guinea
We are currently shutting down Postiz for all customers. We are afraid @Railway has been compromised; they won't tell us.
We have received emails from Anthropic and Stripe that our keys have been compromised.
We are digging into it and will get back to you ASAP!

Every codebase has decisions in it that nobody remembers making. Someone had a good reason, then they moved on, and the reason went with them.
Then an AI agent shows up and "cleans it up." That's the gap we're building SourceAnt to close.

Meet @sourceantai 🐜
We’re writing more code than ever, but keeping track of why it works the way it does is getting harder.
For coding agents, that problem is worse. The code might say a field isn't used. It doesn't say that another repository depends on it, or that the reason it exists is buried in an old Slack thread.
SourceAnt keeps the decisions, requirements, and conventions behind your software and brings them into coding agents and code reviews when they matter.
SourceAnt keeps the why behind your software available to everyone working on it, human or agent.

One of Claude’s new obsessions is to keep referring to types as kinds everywhere including in schemas. Evidence.kind, Requirement.kind found myself catching and correcting this across 3 different codebases. The philosophizing and verbosity is still annoyingly present.
I just launched @sourceantai on @ProductHunt today
We’re writing more code than ever, but for humans, understanding and managing all that code is getting harder.
Agents have a different problem: they can read the code, but often lack the context and intent behind it. They don’t know why things are the way they are, what was tried before, or which constraints matter.
#SourceAnt keeps that knowledge and serves it to developers, coding agents, and code reviews when they need it.
Check us out on #producthunt and feedback appreciated.

to build a cool product now, you really only need two ppl:
one dude with exceptional vision & taste who knows what should exist & can provide the right feedback loops for iteration.
& one dude who is absolutely relentless about making it real no matter what.
that’s it. & sometimes these two are the same.
I wouldn't say it's all that matters but these days the first thing I look for in a diff is whether there's been a change to the schema.
A few others:
- Any unexpected files?
- Changes in folder I didn't expect to be touched?
....
But this is such a useful thing to observe. – at Equatorial Guinea

🔥 Incredible news for the African startup community!
@vp_fund, just raises another $84 million from institutional investors to invest in African startups.
A huge congratulations to @kola_aina @DrDotun and team! 👏🏽👏🏽

Because the loudest among us don't seem to understand what a startup is and the fact we keep outsourcing the risk and then complain about ownership. I hope this puts to end the mental laziness.

Grip builds intelligent robots that pick the trash existing sorting machines can't.
Robotic manipulation just started working. Foundation models can now grasp the deformable, entangled, never-before-seen objects that waste streams are full of, on hardware that's finally cheap enough to make the economics work. We install modular robotic cells and every pick makes the whole fleet smarter.
We start with plastic contamination in organic waste, then expand to every stream where machines still leave the hard objects to humans. Grip is becoming the general manipulation platform for global waste infrastructure.
Founded by robotics engineers from ETH Zürich. Backed by Y Combinator (S26).

Your level of maturity is inversely correlated with how much you want other people to celebrate your birthday.
I have never admired anyone who insisted his birthday was big deal.
