Is it not a viable strategy for them to only focus on developers? This seems like something I would let Google spend their infinite money on and Anthropic could focus on what they do best and what we already appreciate them for.
I guess not though, otherwise they wouldn't be doing this.
As someone working in bioinformatics, to me it makes sense. Arguably their lead is not in “development” but agentic tool use more broadly. Opus does not have the most up-to-date knowledge despite its training cut-off in my testing, but excels at complex multi-tool calling. The life sciences have a ton of structured data, knowledgebases and some of the most complex use cases for running specialized software, fetching data from dozens of sourcing and contrasting and remixing it. So it fits agentic applications very naturally. Notably, Anthropic is not going into consumer health like OpenAI but rather pitching itself to all the big pharma companies (already partnering with some of them, including Novo).
Bloom Energy is a growing company which is just shifting towards profitability and positive free cash flow and earnings. Those stocks are expected to have silly P/E ratios. They haven't had 2 years of declining sales.
I think this is the only comment that captures the message of the article. I feel for everyone who is priced out of life, those are very serious problems, but it wasn't what the article is talking about.
If I was seeing lots of comments say something like "The cost of life is preventing me from pursuing my dreams" then the article would be relevant to that.
Maybe this post has a narrow intended audience. Not every post has to be targeting all readers. If it's not true for you then it's not, y'know? Absolutely no need to lash out and HN is not a place for venting. Besides I think they're basically writing about themselves. By the upvotes and comments, it looks like some people do relate.
* Americans will get their first taste of extended range EVs (full EV powertrain with a tiny ICE that charges the battery) and they explode in popularity. It's the perfect vehicle for the US and most investment in EV charging stations will decrease.
* Oral GLP-1s hit the market and the market shares doubles
* Both OpenAI and SpaceX IPO
* Charlie Kirk's shooter will be executed after being on death row for less than a year. 50/50 chance that it's televised.
* Luigi is also executed
* Seattle causes an international incident with Egypt and Iran when they don't reschedule the Pride Parade to not be on the same day as the world cup game. Trump sends in the troops.

This happened, it was called the Chevy Volt. Nobody bought it.
I totally agree that you can make the argument that people didn't buy them because they weren't sexy. Post-2008, new cars became luxury items almost exclusively. So given that, there's no reason they would catch on now unless somebody makes a sexy one.
Oh that's interesting, I didn't know that. In this case I am talking about the Ram 1500. I think this one will make a splash. A truck with almost 700 miles of range. Americans think they hate EVs but they really hate the lack of EV infrastructure.
There aren't that many UEFI shells and the ones that exist are certainly not modern. Anything new is helpful, especially if its written in a popular language like Go.
