I really wish I had that clout-chasing gene - it doesn't even occur to me until I see someone else do it.

I'm serious. The hype chasing clearly clearly matters. .

things like this: https://github.com/instructkr/claw-code I mean ok, serious people put in years of effort for 100 of those stars ...

it's continually wild how extremely irrelevant hard effortful careful work is.

I think that's the game. Get up, look at the headlines, figure out how you can exploit them with vibe coding, do some hyphy project and repeat.

Maybe some lobster themed bullshit between openclaw and the claudecode leak.

I'm not being a cynic here, I'm just telling you what I'm going to do tomorrow.

We do need "hard effortful careful work" to keep planes flying, electrical grids running and medical devices safe. It's very relevant but very undervalued by our current economy.

That was the leaked code and now it's just some random dudes harness btw. He swapped it out. Did a sloppy find and replace for "claude" and made it claw.

It's sloppy work

Does not matter. Sloppiness is unimportant
