Check out Macroscope, I'm really liking this tool: https://jetty.to/macroscope So there have been a lot of layoffs lately citing AI as the reason. Block laid off 4,000 people and blamed AI. Snap cut 1,000. Oracle, 21,000. Cloudflare's CEO quite literally wrote an op-ed titled "How I Choose Which Cloudflare Employees to Replace With AI" after laying of 1,100 employees. And there are many more examples of this. But the fact that Cloudflare made their announcement on earnings, Block was insanely bloated from pandemic overhiring, and Snap just hasn't been doing well, and they all say these layoffs are because of AI?? Yea, that doesn't add up. So I went ahead and read the filings, the 10-Ks, the memos, the shareholder letters, the activist investor letter that showed up two weeks before Snap's layoffs, and everything else I possibly could. And my hunch appears to have been proven right, but I'll let y'all come to your own conclusions based on that info. A portion of this video is sponsored by Macroscope.

I really like Depot, you should try it: https://jetty.to/depot Anthropic just dropped Mythos to the public in the form a Fable 5, which is a heavily safeguarded version of Mythos. And that's putting it lightly. I know I'm late on this one, but I wanted to be thorough in my testing and understanding of how this model actually codes. I used it to scan for vulnerabilities and remediate them on a TS codebase. I had it code a few features on a TypeScript codebase and a Rust codebase. I also had it run for 1+ hour to create different apps. I showcase a few of these, but not all of them since my analytics show most of y'all skip much of the code portion. But there is so much more when it comes to Fable 5, like Anthropic's insane need to try to control every aspect of it with safeguards that are very trigger happy to the point that it's sometimes completely unusable. They say the safeguards prevent you from working on anything cyber security or biology or LLM development, but it blocks much more than that. Anyway, hope y'all enjoy the video! Here's the previous video all about Mythos and Anthropic's handling of Mythos (definitely worth the watch, imo... but I'm biased): https://youtu.be/UYbZo6UuMMY A portion of this video is sponsored by Depot.

Try out PostHog, it's genuinely awesome: https://jetty.to/posthog About two months ago, Anthropic said Claude Mythos was way too dangerous to release to the public. So they didn't. Instead, they performed an amazingly effective marketing campaign that pulled in many of the top companies in the world to gain exclusive access to this model to ensure their software was safe. But now they say they're rolling out Mythos-class models to the public. And to clarify, this video was made before they released the Mythos-class model Fable 5, which is a heavily safeguarded version of Mythos. This video is about the entire story of Mythos up until this point: 0:00 Mythos is way too dangerous 2:05 Project Glasswing & Campaign 3:25 I don't believe Anthropic's fear mongering 6:53 Mozilla Firefox Mythos Results 10:47 cURL Mythos Results 13:01 Mythos is actually good, but... 14:54 The Mythos Conspiracy If you're a developer, sign up to my free newsletter Dev Notes 👉 https://www.devnotesdaily.com/ If you're a student, checkout my Notion template Studious: https://notionstudent.com Don't know why you'd want to follow me on other socials.

Check out Greptile, the best AI code reviewer I've ever used: https://jetty.to/greptile So Bun just ported their entire Zig codebase to Rust, and they did it with AI. This is absolutely fascinating, on both accounts! So I decided to dive into how they did it, what the Rust code actaully looks like and if it's good or AI slop, what the original Zig codebase looked like, why Bun did this, and a whole lot more. This was a fun one!

Kotlin is a really good programming language, try it! https://jetty.to/kotlin (sponsored by JetBrains) Everything at Netflix is built on Java - from the backend to the server racks at your ISP. Java Champion and Staff Software Engineer at Netflix, Paul Bakker, has talked about how Netflix uses Java at scale for at least three years in a row. We went over all of that last year: https://youtu.be/sMPMiy0NsUs This year, however, there's a new twist: AI. Netflix has a few very interesting ways they use AI to help them with Java at Netflix.

Depot really is that good, you should try it: https://jetty.to/depot GitHub is falling apart. I am sad to see it happen, and I am mad at how Microsoft is running GitHub into the ground and lying about the actual reason. To elaborate/clarify: So y'all may notice in the video where I added some segments after the fact (after I shaved lol) because I wanted to really clarify my intent with this video, which wasn't to simply dunk on GitHub, but that I want GitHub to actually fix these issues... but I may be quickly changing my mind. I was gonna record even more today to address and emphasize all of these new things, but figured I'd just leave it here as a comment. The way they've been going about controlling the narrative around this whole thing is really pissing me off. They're trying to push the idea that this is solely due to GitHub facing unprecedented scale from AI agents, so we must cut them slack. And so many others are parroting this idea. I'm tired of it. These issues started LONG before this started happening (see image at 18:15). What about all of the downtime last year? Or the year before that? Or almost every single year since Microsoft acquired GitHub? Can't use the same excuse and expect grace. There's no denying the fact that they are facing unprecedented scale, but there's obviously a bigger issue here that needs to be fixed. So GitHub, stop gaslighting the public into thinking it's simply due to increased traffic. It's not. And I don't think there would be as much blow back if Microsoft and GitHub weren't on the "AI can do your job" train, laying off thousands of devs, then saying "oh no, AI is the reason our product isn't working." Because wait a minute, I thought AI was supposed to FIX all of these issues, not cause them. So which is it? ALSO, GitHub is being intentionally deceiving in their chart from their post-mortem by using the good ol' Anthropic trick. You're telling me there were nearly 0 PRs merged, commits, and new repos in 2023? Of course not, but I guess that's why y'all left out the y-axis. I absolutely hate deception like this. I know I somewhat mentioned these things in the video, but I really wanted to emphasize just how ridiculous it all is. And address the fact that I re-recorded a few clips to try to ensure I wasn't just simply dunking on GitHub because I felt bad about doing that. But I don't anymore. They deserve the criticism. With that said, I will still be using GitHub for now lol. I know, I'm a hypocrite in this regard, but I WILL be actively searching for alternatives, and I sure hope Depot, or anyone else for that matter, can make one that's actually good. Also, at 15:23, there is an error listed under "Pull Requests" for April 23rd, so maybe that's addressing the merge queue issue. But I honestly don't know. There are so many issues with GitHub now, that it could be any number of things.
