| By "here", certainly you don't mean HN? HN feels muted and honestly, I haven't been on here because it's quite stale by the time it gets here, and people have just been vocal about not getting it. > AI.com was sold for $70M This news is everywhere elsewhere, and it's still going on in my WhatsApp groups. I can't even find the active HN thread. This was more because people were surprised about the actual owner of ai.com which everyone assumed was OpenAI or Sam Altman or something. > OpenClaw/Moltbot/Clawdbot This has been everywhere elsewhere too, and Clawdbot hit HN a few days late, after people have already set up videos on it. It's a security hole, but it's the first legitimately good automation tool we've had from AI. Moltbook is more fascination with moltbot+MCPs rather than something interesting in itself - it meant you had a tool that could use the internet from a CLI and such. It's a bit like the Wright Brothers' plane - nobody expects to fly to Japan on it, but it meant flight was possible. > GPT-5.3-Codex and Opus 2.6 were released I think the only real news was Opus 4.6. I love it. It's like a PB&J sandwich. It's cheap. It's the combination of technology people take for granted. It's also something usable in daily life. Opus 4.6 had better parallel command use - meaning it would search for all the files at once instead of 1 at a time. And it was better at going deeper. It helped me pin a bug by going into Android source code and finding the exact line causing a bug, then all the functions that were called by this bug. Most people don't need to look at the source code of the thing they built something on top of, and the people who are vibe coding don't care much for code. Nobody benchmarks how crunchy the peanut butter is. gpt-5.3-codex benchmarked better, but I'm not seeing this translating to useful code. It failed with the first few requests I gave it. Maybe it's just me and my repo. |
