I think the funniest thing is this whole cost thing you mentioned is like, we've seen this in the code space, right?

Cursor had to pull away the unlimited cloud code.

Initially they have this super expensive plan and it had like unlimited rates and then they were only like a weekly rate limit.

Now they have like hour based rate limits.

And I saw the craziest like thread on Twitter where this guy said he changed his sleep schedule.

right?

Modeled after like how sailors in the bay, if you're sailing, you can't sleep, right?

Like solo sailing, they'll take like power naps when they get to the right spots so that they can like still be safe.

Well, but like they can't sleep uninterrupted, right?

And so because

Anthropic had to put rate limits that are like not just week-based, but like a number of hours based.

And like, he like basically sleeps multiple times a day, but small chunks just so he can maximize the usage.

And there's also a leaderboard on Reddit where people are like competing to see how many tokens they're using through their subscription.

And there's like a dude spending like $30,000 a month.

I mean, but it's clear like people are taking advantage of the negative gross margin, like sort of subscriptions that are offered.

How much do you think the, like, customer capture and stickiness for these code products is?

I'm curious what you think on that, right?
