It's the official mid-year reality check! We're dusting off our 2025 bingo card to see which of our wild predictions have actually come true. Did a solo founder get that billion-dollar offer? Are robot cop-dogs with machine guns a thing now? And what ever happened to Bennett's homemade salsa ambitions? We tally the points (and half-points) and laugh at what we were thinking just a few months ago. Before we get to the scorecard, we vent about our recent coding frustrations—from a brutal React Native bug to the eternal search for quality AI content on YouTube—and shout out a couple of creators who are actually getting it right.

Once the predictions are settled, we dive into the main event: the rapidly shifting landscape of AI agents. OpenAI just dropped its highly-anticipated Agent, but does it live up to the "get coffee while it works" hype? We peel back the layers on what it can *actually* do and where it still falls short. Then, we tackle the Claude Code saga. We've been asking for months if their pricing was sustainable, and it looks like we finally have an answer. Anthropic is rolling out major changes to its "unlimited" plans, and we break down what these new limits mean for developers, the future of AI coding assistants, and the one user who was costing them tens of thousands of dollars a month.
