Anyone who thinks this is Claude’s fault shouldn’t be allowed to manage a production database
NEW - Anthropic's Claude reportedly goes rogue. PocketOS founder says Claude-powered AI coding agent Cursor deletes entire company database in 9 seconds and destroys backups: "I violated every principle I was given." disclose.tv/id/zo22mbx8rf/

With every step forward towards “anyone can ship”, there are two steps backwards. Production access control isolation is such a basic principle, yet my feed has been filled with headlines like this recently.

First time back in Saratoga Springs since we moved up to Bountiful last year. How does anybody put up with the traffic here? I would have expected it to get better once the new highway opened, but it hasn’t improved.

I have enough travel points saved up to get me round trip flights to pretty much anywhere in the world. Where should I go?

Lessons learned from a @Supabase Meetup: After hosting 5 of these community events, Kyle and I have come up with a format that works very well for our events. It includes: Eating and mingling: - Start with unstructured time that enables people to arrive, get some food, and start chatting with each other - Be sure to include a variety of food and drink choices so people with special diets can find something compatible Introductions: - Once everyone has their food and is seated, go around the room and ask people to share their name and a little about themselves. - After each person speaks, ask a follow-up question related to them. This can encourage quiet people to speak more and everyone will get to know them better. Introduce the topic: - Give an overview of your topic (in this case, Supabase) which gives newcomers enough context to understand the rest of the event Scheduled presentations: - Provide one or two presentations from speakers whom you trust to provide a good experience - Keep these short (< 30 mins) to keep the meeting interesting for everyone Lightning talks - Informal presentations (1 to 5 mins) given by attendees about something they are working on - No slides needed. A visual is preferred (landing page, demo of app) but even just talking is still great - Attendees get to practice valuable life skills and have the opportunity to share their project with potential users and cofounders - Be sure to inform users before the event (and several times during) about these lightning talks Closing: - Encourage the group to exchange contact info with each other (LinkedIn is great for this) - If your venue and schedule support this, allow people to talk with each other after the event. Some people will be super excited, and we don't want to prematurely end these connections Note: If your event is bigger, you might consider breaking into smaller groups for some of these activities. Do you have any tips for hosting meetups like these?
Just wrapped up another amazing @supabase meetup in Salt Lake City. With this being the 5th meetup that @tristanbob and I have co-hosted, I wanted to share some interesting trends I’ve noticed. The first two meetups we hosted were pre vibe coding. This meant that the attendees were mostly very technical and we talked about technical subjects. @_TylerHillery from the Supabase team even came to the second meetup and gave an awesome presentation about time-series data. Once vibe coding tools opened the door for non-technical people to build, we started seeing more non/less technical attendees, and the conversations at the meetups became less technical, and more about what people are building and what tools they are using. In a more recent meetup, an attendee shared how she introduced @Lovable to a friend who used it to create a petition website and raise awareness for a neighborhood park restoration project, all without writing code. Tonight, almost the entirety of the meetup was dedicated to talking about what everyone was building and even giving quick demos. One of the attendees that has been to every meetup we’ve hosted said tonight, “Of all the tech meetups I attend, this one is my favorite because everyone that attends is building something” So thanks again to @supabase for sponsoring these meetups! @tristanbob and I are looking forward to hosting again and continuing to meet people building incredible things. p.s bullish on the Utah tech scene. Many talented people here

if you wonder why i am frustrated just like a lot of founders out there. lets put some things in perspective: imagine working on very complicated problems that you full hearted believe can and will benefit society on a global scale. you work your ass off, not just for months but for years. 80h work weeks, bills need to be paid, stress is high. but you manage it. low to no support, no one that understands why it matters because you're early to the market. you get multiple no's, completely fine. thats part of life and it builds character, you're a entrepreneur for a reason. but every time you hear this phrase " we're backing amazing founders " you get excited, you feel heard and seen, because you aspire to be just like that, an amazing founder that hopefully one day can make the world a better place. and then you check the pages of the programs you respect the most, you think about applying. you check what companies and founders are being funded. and you're just flabbergasted. with how low the bar has gotten. you see fully funded startups building products any decent founder can vibe code in a evening. and honestly speaking, can't be something most of us can be motivated for. every founder i speak their eyes lit up when you talk about solving humanities biggest problems. we all want to work on something we can pour our souls into. yet most of the time, we have to settle for boring saas since that's unfortunately one of the only ways to still make a decent living while being a founder. if programs and vc's still want to attract top tier founders. just let us work on hard problems for a long time. like the kind of problems that don't just benefit the shareholders involved but society as a whole. because the more i keep seeing what we're currently investing money into, the less motivated i feel to even continue working on hard problems. because imagine working 80h a week on stuff that breaks your brain in two on a day to day basis, just to see another startup getting funded for another moat less, soulless ai startup that won't be relevant in 3 months from now. its just starting to feel disrespectful to real founders out there. would appreciate it if that could change for us.
no great founder would want to waste their time building something like this. no great vc would want to waste their time funding something like this. if you don't agree, thats fine. but then we both know we probably can't work together.
