Thanks @jasonlk! Lot to do still but: 1) @linear is used by pretty much by all major labs/ai companies out there 2) our MCP traffic grows 50% MoM 3) we have the most agent integrations and active usage than any platform like this (3rd party, in-house agents) 4) our AI revenue (loops, coding sessions) has grown about 500% per quarter 5) we are closing several public companies/enterprises each quarter to help them coordinate their agent work Quoting @HarryStebbings The Bull Case for Linear Being a $100BN Company: "Linear is the clear winner. They have built an agentic product first that allows us to build 100x more software, and that means 100x more features than ever before. Humans cannot keep up with it, and humans still have to work with agents. If every h… MCP Related

„With a bunch of generous assumptions, legitimate requests are only about 2% of https://t.co/kEtDwEFcYq traffic — everything else are scrapers.“ Yeah this checks out. Anyone who has valuable data on their public site will have seen this. It’s horrendous. people.kernel.org

RE: https://mastodon.social/@danluu/111037093079443322 With the discussions of how bot traffic is flooding websites, I was surprised to find that my CDN is "only" using 3.5 TB/mo, up 3x in 3 years. Human traffic is probably down because I haven't been active for the last couple years, so maybe we can call that a 4x to 5x increase due to bots? Maybe my site just isn't very appealing to bots, but from the way people talk, I was expecting a higher ratio. I would've guessed >= 100x from how people are talking; 10x would be nothing in terms of load. Related

if I was stuck in this traffic every day in a car, I would go insane. No amount of self driving would change that. We need ACs, but the US badly needs to warm up to public transportation.

@MisterMoo @delric The thing to complain about isn't that they default to Google. It's that they only include search engines in the list that have paid TAC deals. Only search engines that agree to pay Apple for the traffic are in the list, and there's no option for users to add custom ones. English, from eo @MisterMoo @delric La cosa de la que quejarse no es que por defecto usen Google. Es que solo incluyen motores de búsqueda en la lista que tienen acuerdos TAC de pago. Solo los motores de búsqueda que aceptan pagar a Apple por el tráfico están en la lista, y no hay opción para que los usuarios añadan los suyos propios.

Nothing matches. Show everything
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
