There was more also going on in that time-frame: several interest rate hikes, no fix for section 174 changes by the end of 2022. Maybe someone will pinpoint whatever had the largest impact in a detailed study.

I still think some sort of shift in trends. Maybe it could have been COVID totalitarianism ending and as such shifting trend in leadership to reduce investments. Lot of headcount decision might not be actual needs, but what in general looks good for stock market. And if there is no more growth expected from WFH, well less hiring and reducing labour force looks better.

One way to gauge is by taking a look at some of the projects submitted for Bolt's contest at https://worldslargesthackathon.devpost.com/project-gallery

Interesting. Are any at the point where they accept payment, i.e. generate revenue?

Not sure, most were probably created just for this hackathon so I'd expect few if any. It's just a good way to see how far one can take it with vibe coding. It's easy to crank out smaller apps these days so marketing and distribution will be more important going forward.

This piece is also covered by a bunch of other cli/tui agents (like codex-cli and opencode) allowing you to switch between Claude and other models (comes in handy depending on the task) so it really all depends on the setup you like. As mentioned in the sibling comment there are ways to get it to work with Claude Code too.

Most likely "In my experience" and "business analyst"

To a non-developer, or no code review, couldn't the AI model also generate buggy code that then made it's way to production and deleted data just the same?

npm package registry definitely down. Happened to be doing a package install and it kept 504'ing

Wasn't there something when this went into effect about the mid-year being the start so it is 10% in years 1 and 6?

Yeah, I just read that. So it's actually 10-20-20-20-20-10, which is both weirder and also slightly worse than my formula above.

That part is not so weird, you didn't pay all salaries on January 1st. But amortizing salaries in general is ridiculous.

Neat. Did you have any thoughts on json5 or hjson?

That raises an interesting question. Are all of these agencies using the build from the Play/iOS stores or is there a build based on the audited public repo?
