The Ledger
Every statement that passed quotation and attribution checks. Mix any filter with any other: certainty 1/5, debate potential 5/5, or both at once.

Lloyd: Prompt-driven development, not autocomplete, is the future of software
“I don't think autocomplete is the future. So I don't feel like I'm like seeding competitive ground here to Cursor. The future is more like developed by prompt.”
Lloyd: AI deployment will lag technology capabilities over a ten-year horizon
“I think it's more like a 10. I think, like, again, the technology's gonna run way ahead of the deployment of it, just because the deployment of it takes a long time.”
Lloyd: Warp will reach 1M active developer users this year
“I think we'll hit a million active users, active developers this year, and we're, and now obviously we're growing our revenue super duper fast”
