    The Spy Who Banned Me

    It's Fallthrough time! In this episode, Kris, Matthew, and Steve get into the time Steve pointed Anthropic's Fable at a side project he hadn't touched since January and watched it shepherd 95 pull requests in three days, the US government export banning Fable and its sibling Mythos, the insanity of Mythos popping a national security agency's boxes in a matter of hours, and why a software engineer that runs 24/7 for anyone with an account is exactly the kind of thing governments get nervous about. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes whether your AI agents should file their bugs in your repo or on a private board where they can make as big a mess as they want, the model that forged itself a cookie to get around a testing problem and what it means for an AI to actually understand being a software developer, Steve's deliberately-out-of-context claim that millennials are the only people who know how computers work, Trump signing a quantum cryptography order while openly asking what the whole thing even is, Kris's year-long sales tax rabbit hole where nobody can agree where a person physically is, and the Diet Coke can math that says one exploding rocket is about one percent of an hour of making aluminum.

    Of Fables and Mythos

    Another week, another Fallthrough! In this episode, Kris and Matthew get into the US government slapping export controls on Anthropic's Mythos and Fable models, the marketing machine that made them sound world-ending, and how much of the AI hype actually holds up. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes whether your phone is already an extension of your mind and the "Clean Talk" cleaning influencers who will happily tell you to mix two chemicals that quietly kill you, the Egyptologist on a date who proves a person is smart but people are dumb, why we throw you in jail for robbing a bank but only fine you for wrecking the economy, a no-holds-barred roast of Claude Code and the flickering bug that still will not die, and why AI in the creative fields is really just Photoshop with no shortcut to doing good work.

    Shall We Play A Game?

    Matt and Kris welcome Fernando Duran, the creator of SAD Servers, the site that drops you onto a broken Linux box over SSH with a timer running and dares you to fix it. They go through what SAD Servers is, the spite-fueled interview story that started it all, how companies use it to hire, and the surprisingly lean infrastructure (plus the tiny Go "checker") that makes the whole thing work. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes why technical interviews are broken and the spite that turned one into a business, taking the number two spot on Hacker News without toppling over and the layers that keep the bad actors out, why three availability zones might just be expensive cargo-culting, the metrics that quietly lie to you (from Google-style error budgets to mean time to recovery versus mean time between failures), and the company that accidentally spent half a billion dollars on tokens.

    Pull the (AI) Lever, Kronk!

    Matt and Kris welcome back Bill Kennedy who's been working on Kronk, AI tooling in Go. They go through what Kronk (and it's dependent library Yzma) is, the power of running models locally, and how they see coding agents and LLMs shaping the future of the industry. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes the message-caching trick that turns seconds into thirty milliseconds, why hybrid models quietly wreck the KV cache, Bill's "thirty billion knobs" explainer for dense versus mixture-of-experts models, why demo day is destroying engineering teams, and the stealth-startup math nobody says out loud.

    Dependencies All The Way Down

    Another week, another Fallthrough! In this episode, Kris and Matthew discuss a personal realization about what AI actually unlocks, their workflow philosophies, local models, a recent hot take from Mitchell Hashimoto, and a thought experiment that would break the NPM ecosystem overnight. Like the previous episode (a pseudo part 1), this episode returns to one question: are you moving in a direction, or just moving fast? Kris argues AI has lifted his coding domain ceiling entirely, while Matthew brings some nuance to the "just submit to the LLM, you're an architect now" take. The duo then turns outward: frontier lab CEOs claiming all white-collar work is automated while posting 300 open roles, the strong case for running local models (free, fast, and available right now), and a GitHub supply chain wake-up call triggered by a malicious VSCode plugin installed by an employee. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes Matthew's Shopify in-store pickup problem and whether building your own cash register on Stripe is actually feasible, Kris going deep on typography after Claude critiqued its own publication designs as screaming AI, the pre-fill versus decode speed gap and what it means for how you write prompts, how the US federal budget actually works day to day and why simple answers are the wrong frame, and Stripe's two-business-day payout model versus merchant of record, plus Rhode Island's ongoing war against Matthew's chocolate shop.

    Terminal Velocity

    Has AI eaten all of tech? Is 600 billion tokens too many use in a single month? On this week's episode Matt joins Kris to talk about some of the current news in the tech industry. From OpenClaw's maintainer burning through $1.3 million worth of tokens to why we need more epistemic markers, to the rather absurd $725 billion that big tech plans to spend on AI CapEx this year. And of course, there are layoffs coming as well. Support content? We've got a whole bunch of that! This week that includes a ZFS war story where a thousand-fold write amplification bug stalls every file write, the case for why LLMs hand you mediocre output by default, today's OAuth and GitHub security incidents traced back to a standards fight twenty years ago, a spicy take on who actually holds power inside big tech, and Matthew hand-writing an HTTP server in Rust just to fight off skill atrophy.

    He Who Controls the Source

    This week we've got Kris and Jamie! They open with the Shai-Hulud worm chewing through the npm supply chain and close on the messy economics of who actually pays for open source labor. And there's plenty of great stuff in between: GitHub's everything-platform creep, the case for LLMs as a way out of dependency hell, and the forge alternatives finally maturing into real options. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes an expansion on Kris's "pull requests as original sin" theory, the everything-platform rant that compares GitHub to Meta Business Suite, a monologue on money, knowledge gaps, and LLMs as a way out of open source debt.

    Forging Ahead

    Steve is back to talk JJ (Jujutsu version control) and the related product, ChangeSet, that he works on at East River Source Control. Kris and Steve trace why the GitHub monoculture is finally cracking, what JJ does that Git can't, and Steve's hypothesis that AI agents are pushing companies toward monorepos. Then the pair discuss the Opus 4.7 regression debate, the shift from "always use the frontier model" to using LLMs as one tool among many, and a quick discussion of the Tim Cook to John Ternus handoff at Apple. We've got supporter content, of course! This week that includes Steve's broader thesis that it's easier to scale a big tool down than scale a small one up, why GitHub's pull request model warped how people use Git, auto-rebase and conflicts as first-class citizens in JJ, AI subsidies, and a Bun being ported to Rust.
