Why not make your AI tool do it for you?
meowface · 4 days ago
Because, while I have been a huge AI optimist for decades, I generally don't like their current writing output. And even if I did, it would feel like plagiarism unless I prepended it with "an AI responded with this:", which would make me seem lazy. (Though I did already just admit I am very lazy in my first post, so perhaps that is what I will do going forward once they become better writers.)

only $200/mo…$200 a month is a used car payment.

I guarantee you that price will double by 2027. Then it’ll be a new car payment!

I’m really not saying this to be snarky, I’m saying this to point out that we’re really already in the enshittification phase before the rapid growth phase has even ended. You’re paying $200 and acting like that’s a cheap SaaS product for an individual.

I pay less for Autocad products!

This whole product release is about maximizing your bill, not maximizing your productivity.

I don’t need agents to talk to each other. I need one agent to do the job right.

I could write an essay about how almost everything you wrote either is extremely incorrect or is extremely likely to be incorrect. I am too lazy to, though, so I will just have to wait for another commenter to do the equivalent.

This is actually an aspect of using AI tools I really enjoy: Forming an educated intuition about what the tool is good at, and tastefully framing and scoping the tasks I give it to get better results.

It cognitively feels very similar to other classic programming activities, like modularization at any level from architecture to code units/functions, thoughtfully choosing how to lay out and chunk things. It's always been one of the things that make programming pleasurable for me, and some of that feeling returns when slicing up tasks for agents.

I feel the same, but, also, within like three years this might look very different. Maybe you'll give the full end-to-end goal upfront and it just polls you when it needs clarification or wants to suggest alternatives, and it self-manages cleanly self-delegating.

Or maybe something quite different but where these early era agentic tooling strategies still become either unneeded or even actively detrimental.

you are using it on easy questions. some of us are not.
meowface · 13 days ago
A lot of people are getting good results using it on hard things. Obviously not perfect, but > 50% success.

That said, more and more people seem to be arriving at the conclusion that if you want a fairly large-sized, complex task in a large existing codebase done right, you'll have better odds with Codex GPT-5.2-Codex-XHigh than with Claude Code Opus 4.5. It's far slower than Opus 4.5 but more likely to get things correct, and complete, in its first turn.

I'm googling "bags.fm", everything I can find is about money going to creators. Literally nothing suggesting that you're going to get rich by buying these tokens.

Searching for "bags.fm" on X with keywords like "invest" or "rich" or "moon" also does not seem to return any conversations referring to anyone but the creators getting rich.

I can't find any bags.fm references on 4chan, and searching for gas town instead doesn't seem to bring up anything cryptocurrency related in the archive.

> You're being bamboozled

I don't think so. I suspect the world is so full of crypto scams that when someone does something explicitly non-scammy ("Hey, here's a crypto thing you can use to give me free money!") people still incorrectly view it as scammy because of crypto.

How many memecoin "investors" do you think view these as serious investments? I suspect essentially none of them.

How many memecoin "investors" are degenerate gambling addicts who need treatment? Probably most of them.

Taking money from vulnerable gambling addicts is certainly not ideal, but it's far from scammy.

It's a scam or a pennystock grift or whatever term you want to use.

https://x.com/Fizzy__01/status/1956006313848397861

100% of these things are somewhere on the scam and fraud spectrum. An unscrupulous person creates a token or a platform for creating tokens with the goal of raising the worthless token's price so they can parasitically make millions from something that holds zero value.

The "fund creators" thing is a common ploy. If they actually wanted to do that, they'd make it so you can only donate with dollars or stablecoins.

Look at the dozens of replies to all of Yegge's posts, now: https://x.com/Steve_Yegge/status/2014530592134910215

> There are people who genuinely think crypto is an investment.

Sure! Are those people buying bags.fm tokens? Probably not.

This isn't even marketed as an investment https://bags.fm but a crowdfunding tool for developers with a casino attached.

You don't have to be smart to read the big text on the website.

meowface · 15 days ago
You don't have to be smart to understand they're very, very, very obviously saying it's an investment and using extremely superficial cover. All things like these are exclusively pennystock scams.

You're being bamboozled. Google the name of it. Search it on Twitter and 4chan. Watch any Coffeezilla video.

The difference between bags.fm and pennystock scams is that bags.fm is very obviously not marketed as an investment, but a crowdfunding tool.
meowface · 15 days ago
It's absolutely marketed as an investment, and solely used and referenced by people saying it is an investment. This is like saying those cannabis paraphernalia shops are marketed as only for tobacco.

It's not a scam, there's no misrepresentation. This very clearly isn't marketed as an investment of any kind https://bags.fm

https://apps.apple.com/app/bags-financial-messenger/id647319...

The tagline of the app? "Buy & sell memecoins". Transparently advertised as a crowdfunding mechanism using memecoins.

What? Of course it's marketed as an investment. That's the sole thing it's marketed as. Are you not able to lift the thinnest veil imaginable?

People keep giving him the benefit of the doubt. "He's clearly on to something, I just don't know what". I know what. The hustle of the shill. He has long gone from 'let's use a lot of tokens' to seeking a high score. He disgusts me.
meowface · 16 days ago
What high score?

Because you'd be aiding and abetting a pennystock scam.
