Some businesses don't need to be VC backed though. That is the problem.

As soon as Deno took money from Sequoia, this was bound to happen. So here is what is going to happen: Deno is going to 100% get acquired. Ryan Dahl is obviously rare talent and any company that gets …

As soon as a tool adds pricing, price increases or adds AI that's when it begins to be enshittified. Why does this happen mostly?
comment
You didn't answer my question. Possibly because you're too emotional and raging everywhere and not stopping to think what happens when you think the answer to everything is a complete ban. I…

And banning prediction markets altogether will make this all go away? You are very very naive. I am still waiting to see whether you can find if I explicitly liked it or not. If you can, see you tomor…

> I don't know the motivation behind Astral's approach, but this acquisition does leave a weird taste behind about how serious they were about truly open source software. It was because A…

It would have been fine if the Astral team was acqui-hired and uv, ruff, etc were donated to the PSF or Linux Foundation for further sponsorship and support. But the pressure because they raised VC …
comment
If you don't pay for your tools and support OSS financially, this is what happens. Although Astral being VC funded was already headed this way anyway. Deno, Pydantic (Both Sequoia) will go the sa…

Are you able to point to where I explicitly said I liked it rather than putting words in my mouth to fit your narrative? Maybe you should calm down re-read the thread before you turn red hot with ange…

Where is the particular and specific assassination market that says: "Date on which this journalist will die"?
comment
All you're showing are death threats that humans have made. This has happened for all of time, prediction markets or not. There is a difference. Where is the particular and specific assassinati…

> I just can’t see how Deno moves forward now. The possibility of an acquisition like B*n seems unlikely. They raised VC capital, they have to get acquired by an AI lab. Also, Ryan Dahl is a rare t…
comment
Why did you send in an article that was completely irrelevant that has nothing to do with prediction markets? What you're showing me is a death threat, which has existed for time in humans. Betti…
comment
And you think banning it would 100% work? and where did I say I liked it?
comment
Illegal or not, trying to ban it won't work. You'll just push it underground and it will get even worse. The cat is out of the bag.
comment
AI is 1000%+ far worse to be fair. Cryptocurrency (although I hate it) you don't have to participate, so no harm done. Prediction Markets you don't have to participate, so no harm done. With…
comment
Why does everything you don't like need to be banned? Downvoters: I really doubt that you actually successfully 100% banned anything in the history of technology.

Anthropic and Dario & Co. don’t care that you hate them. In 10 years time when Dario is on his $100M yacht sailing into sunset, this essay wouldn’t come anywhere near his mind. He would be too bus…

The Suits, HR and execs would love this: "Must have a degree or certification in Claude." "Must hold an OpenClaw 2026 Grade II Certificate"
comment
Good idea. The MIT license and other "pushover" licenses was built in the pre-LLM era. I don't think it is fit for purpose anymore since now maintainers are getting burnt out and most c…

Uh what is dogpatch? Are we in a bubble here?

Will my landlord accept these 'compute tokens' as payment if I can't pay my rent in actual cash thanks to AI taking jobs away?

Unfortunately you need to get with the times, or get left behind.

> Part of this is jealousy (yes, I said it) This feels like cope here. They want to get rid of SWE because they are highly paid (in the US especially) and they want them for cheap (e.g. Bangalore, …
