Knowing very little about how to run these, how close are we to medium or larger businesses starting to buy hardware to run models like this to keep the models local?

It’s expensive, and not as capable as the frontier models, but would have some pretty big benefits around privacy and agency.

I don’t really follow what you’re saying. You mention the 5 hour limit. Is your expectation that they have enough capacity so that everyone can hit their 5 hour limit all the time? Or you are proposing that’s how they limit capacity for a subscription?

Do you have an example of how this is how they have advertised or sold the plan? I don’t recall ever seeing any advertisement that their plan is simply pre paying for tokens.

You may be right about taste, but I think it takes a different dimension in the future.

"Dear Claude, please make me a clone of <fancy new saas> but make <these changes specific to my tastes>".

For many things, it's probably not "select the one of 100 that fits my taste", it's probably going to be to just make your own personal version that fits your taste in the first place. And, probably, never share that anywhere.

This has to be a bot account, right? 2 days old.

Yesterday "I don't know about you, but I benefit so much from using Claude at work that I would gladly pay $1,500-$2,000 per month to keep using it."

The interesting part about that is both of those things require some sort of time to start.

If I launch a new product, and 4 hours later competitors pop up, then there's not enough time for network effects or lockin.

I'm guessing what is really going to be needed is something that can't be just copied. Non-public data, business contracts, something outside of software.

I can't tell if this is genius or terrifying given what their software does. Probably a bit of both.

I wonder what the security teams at companies that use StrongDM will think about this.

It is: https://azure.status.microsoft/en-us/status

"Impact statement: As early as 19:46 UTC on 2 February 2026, we are aware of an ongoing issue causing customers to receive error notifications when performing service management operations - such as create, delete, update, scaling, start, stop - for Virtual Machines (VMs) across multiple regions. These issues are also causing impact to services with dependencies on these service management operations - including Azure Arc Enabled Servers, Azure Batch, Azure DevOps, Azure Load Testing, and GitHub. For details on the latter, please see https://www.githubstatus.com."

I've been keeping my eye on this one, it's very interesting.

Feel free to ignore this, but, what's your long term plan here? I see you have Enterprise plans (especially that allow different licenses). From what I can tell you're the only contributor, but, I assume that if you accepted contributions there'd be a CLA?

I'm not familiar with this at all. But at first blush, it seems like the Readme is far more interested in being angry with Anthropic than actually telling me what this is or why I care.

I see "Multi Agent Orchestration", but, scrolling through this I still have no idea what I'm looking at.

Part of me says that that could be handled with licenses, though for that to work the code probably no longer qualifies as open source either.

Also, I'd guess, the sort of people who are comfortable with asking an LLM to build the premium features are, uh, morally flexible enough to not care about licenses in the first place.

It's almost always locking some features behind subscription.

Obviously, SSO is the best choice for most deployments. Enterprises (who will probably pay the most) will require SSO.

Open Source is the "free taste". Everyone knows, uses, and likes Grafana. When your company is looking for something, you'll recommend it because you're familiar with it. Your company will want things like SCIM or similar, and pay them for it.

It's harder for products that are trying to sell to smaller companies/individuals, but it still applies.

I'm no lawyer, but this part

"You are hereby granted a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under Broadcom’s copyrights to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software in source code or binary form for use in connection with Broadcom products."

Feels like it's saying you're only allowed to use it in the future if you use it in relation to some Broadcom product.
