> as always there is a buy vs build tradeoff

it's a nonbinary decision now

Google has a free, open source take on what you are building, looks more mature as well

My comment about Cowork is more about pointing out a different feature set that will crossover with Code. In example they have the Task related things as an affordance, Code has this coming.

I believe there is a difference between an open source framework and a product. You would still have to manage and scale your infra, build the integration layer around it to make it accessible where your teams are, fix bugs etc...

I am not saying that build is always the bad choice, but the tradeoff did not disappear imo

    • I’m newer to knowing and caring about what YC does at all in terms of the companies it funds. The fact that this is YC makes me think the org has forfeited any sense of “taste” at all. Complete scattershot from people who have money to scatter I guess.
