A pet peeve of mine is people who think DevRel is where you stash your bad engineers, so you can away with paying them less as well. A DevRel is an engineer, plus a bucket of additional skills like speaking, writing, videography and product. You pay them *more* than a plain engineer.

lol. Such good advice though! OpenAI and Anthropic are clearly following it.

There is no "AI doomer sex cult". Everyone in tech in the bay is in some kind of polyamorous sex arrangement, that's just how it works out here, it has nothing to do with their alignment on the AI issue.

This notion of bigoted beliefs being a protected characteristic like gender or race is just absolutely barmy. Those of us who’ve experienced genuine discrimination for who we are know there’s no comparison, and the political and legal collusion on this stuff is disastrous.

They are the other end of the spectrum to the AI god worshipper people. Some people just take extreme positions absent supporting facts.

Never has anyone ever wanted something to fail as much as Ed Zitron has wanted Anthropic to fail. Churchill had a mild preference by comparison.

Anthropic's revenue grew 1000% year on year and no retail investor is going to care about any other number. The pop on opening day will be crazy.

The people talking about that lesbian bar in Massachusetts have apparently never had an argument in a social-justice space before. It is a completely normal leftier-than-thou competition exactly the same as a thousand others.

Remember when Aaron Swartz downloaded some PDFs he was legally entitled to access and they literally hounded him to his death? Anyway.

They also re ran the study and couldn't get good results because developers refused to do the tasks without AI help.

Good thing all this unauthorized computer access is somehow not illegal and magically nobody is criminally liable for it or it would be really expensive and professionally damaging! www.axios.com/2026/09/26/openai-ant…

There are people out there who are still clinging to the idea that developing software with LLMs only *feels* faster, and isn't actually faster, and I want them to explain how that works when the LLM is writing a language I do not know and will never learn.

My capitalism simulator has reached 100,000 people and Claude had decided it's time to rewrite from TypeScript to Rust. Bon chance, Claude.

One of the cutest things about devrels meeting each other is how routinely they are star-struck by each other. Every famous devrel thinks some OTHER person is The Famous DevRel.

I saw an article that said "Muse is having a moment" and... I see no evidence of that. Muse is desperately waving for attention in a room where nobody cares.

Interest rates are lower now than they were in 1997.

Laurie Voss @seldo.com · 25/09/2026

And ANOTHER way it's like 1997 is that people are saying "X will happen in the next 2 years" and those things actually took 20 years to happen. The future is very unevenly distributed and human systems do not change at AI speeds. That can be disappointing or reassuring depending on your perspective.

Laurie Voss @seldo.com · 25/09/2026

But the OTHER way it's like 1997 is that it's clearly a bubble but the bubble is going to last way longer than you think it can. Betting against a bubble mid-bubble is risky work.

The thing about a "this changes everything" technology is that it changes *everything*, so your reference points and assumed constants do not hold. Nobody knows where this thing is going to go or what the new steady state will look like.

Laurie Voss @seldo.com · 25/09/2026

The analogy is: in 1997 it felt like the internet had really arrived after exploding in 1994. We felt like we'd got a handle on what it was going to do, what was going to change, and how long it would take, and we were extremely wrong about all of it.

Laurie Voss @seldo.com · 25/09/2026

I have discovered a problem with my "AI now is like the internet in 1997" analogy which is that half you fuckers weren't even born in 1997 and so have no idea what I'm talking about.
