Episode notes
Davos Security And Frozen Lake Landings
- Dave described Davos security: long Uber rides and 3,000 people with machine guns lining roads.
- He observed drones and radar protecting the airspace and leaders landing on frozen lakes.
Developers Stunned By Code Models
- Salim relayed ex-Yahoo developers' shock at recent code-generation advances and how their minds were blown.
- He noted developers asking, 'How do I get my head around this?' in response to Opus 4.5 effects.
