Why would Anthropic do this? Seriously, why?

AI is proving that the number of lines an engineer can write in a day was never a proper measuring stick.
Some of the most expensive manufacturing processes involve creating single-purpose (sometimes single-use) tools to produce a single unique physical item. The design, development, and fabrication costs are what make the item so expensive.
What if that item is software—a single-use, perfectly designed piece needed only once to do one thing? No one would ever do this, right?
What if it cost $0.12 and you could have it in 12 minutes?

And it works! 😊
I've now been able to make all these DOS games work in their original DOS versions in multiplayer with my own local area network (LAN) emulator:
- Quake 1
- Duke Nukem 3D
- Doom 1
- Doom 2
If you go to pieter.com and start a game, you get auto matched with another player if available, and a little LAN is created between you two over the internet and via my server (over Websockets)
It works remarkably well if you think about all the steps involved
🛜 Remember LAN parties? I do
LAN means "local area network" and it was essentially the internet but locally only in your home or company in the late 90s and early 2000s
So you could connect to other computers to play games or share files, kinda like Airdrop but via a cable and 30 years ago, people would even meet up at some person's house and bring their entire computer (back then a big PC tower, CRT monitor, keyboard and mouse) and everyone would connect to each other
Which is were you'd get all the WaReZ games, MP3 music, etc. cause nobody had internet yet, or if you did it was super slow, so LAN was much faster to transfer files
I know Windows 3.11 did have support for LAN networking via NetBEUI and it "should" work, but of course on pieter.com I don't have a network cable that goes to an Ethernet network hub to other computers
But...we could just act like we do?
I asked AI to build a virtual Ethernet hub (a hub routes traffic) that acts like a local LAN, but instead of connecting physical computers in a home, it connects other browser sessions on the internet that have pieter.com running Windows 3.11 open at any time, and with DHCP it can assign an IP to every browser session dynamically, so they literally all become part of a local LAN on the internet!
It runs on a virtual NE2000 network card that sends its network data not to a network cable but via Websockets to wss://pieter.com
And it works, well kinda, I just started and its' not perfect, but I'm able to PING in MS-DOS from one tab to the other!
Next is setting it up inside Windows 3.11!

Super cool build! A fully pneumatic seven-segment clock — no LEDs, just vacuum-pulled silicone membranes that latch in place using air-powered transistors. 🔥
Arduino drives the solenoid valves, four digits multiplexed with shared data lines — same logic as electronic displays, but running on air. All 3D-printed and cast in silicone. @hackaday
What would you build with pneumatic logic gates?

I wish someone told me this two years ago:
Have you used a harness you built from scratch?
If you hesitate for a second, then ask the following question to your favorite model. If you do not understand or have not done any part of what it says. Stop and do it now. Here is the question.
How can I build my own harness to talk to you?

PSA: I am not github.com/piclaw. I need to add a disclaimer to the actual github.com/rcarmo/piclaw README. No idea who that is, if you know @-me because it's getting confusing, please RT /cc @badlogicgames

People of pi, github.com/rcarmo/piclaw/rel… is out. John Malkovich is John Malkovich is John Malkovich is John Malkovich after @badlogicgames's latest release.

we as software engineers are becoming beholden to a handful of well funded corportations. while they are our "friends" now, that may change due to incentives. i'm very uncomfortable with that.
i believe we need to band together as a community and create a public, free to use repository of real-world (coding) agent sessions/traces. I want small labs, startups, and tinkerers to have access to the same data the big folks currently gobble up from all of us. So we, as a community, can do what e.g. Cursor does below, and take back a little bit of control again.
Who's with me?
