Fitbit air next

[Bennett @b_nnett]

23.5 hours later... there's an app and it's open source.

It tracks activities & sleep. It has full sensor support: HR, SpO2, HRV, Temperature, Motion, etc.

The whole Anthropic kerfuffle would have gone much smoother if they had been upfront about it.

"Hey, we know this is unpopular, but we are moving programmatic access to API pricing. To easen the transition, we are giving API credits that match your subscription value. We also expect this change to increase capacity, so we are doubling the limits throughout Claude products for the next 2 months".

The reason they made it sound like an upgrade was because the announcement was not for developers. It was for investors and enterprise customers. Impacting devrel is just collateral damage, which is on par for a company which believes coding is going away any time now.

And this is extremely disapointing because they want to position themselves as a company that we should trust. But if they can't be honest about pricing changes, it is really hard to believe them on anything else.

@ClaudeDevs so a distraction from the bad dev relations. Everyone is switching to codex now

[Will Sentance @willsentance]

posted on this back in march, but this will eventually become a study in a biz school somewhere. claude had the upper hand for the last two quarters due to their harness + model quality showing breakthroughs for production grade coding. they lost that lead almost overnight. heres why:

1. they treated their model as the moat, which wasnt sustainable as all OAI had to do was tune for code and release. the real moat for power users(the main consumer base + source for coding data) is price/perfomance and UX of the harness. OAI holds all compute and a comparable model so they get the price floor, simple as.

2. for some reason, anthropic decided to release a PR stint around Mythos with the implication that devs weren't to be trusted with such power, and its clear at this point it really was an attempt to declare their pivot away from the consumer to enterprise. this was also interpreted as a signal that anthropic wont be releasing SOTA to the consumer anymore, so users switched. OAI released a comparable model anyway and the world didn't implode, so, theres that too.

3. OAI bought all the talent for the harness they could over the last 12 months, Alex app, etc all got folded into one thing: make codex the best ever. All efforts in the company went towards this, instead of silently abandoning Claude Code users for enterprise like Anthropic is probably doing.

4. The claude code team is faced with hard choices, report the churn as a price/perfomance issue and take that up with execs, only to be told they cant budge, or try to find core UX issues that might win back some users. both choices are suboptimal and wont solve.

core lesson: if you plan to abandon your core customer, be really careful how you execute that or you may end up in a canyon you cant cross

[Danila Poyarkov @dan_note]

There is a language. Of course, Elixir 😅

Okay, I’ll spoil what I’m working on right now

[Andre Carrera @andr_ec_]

@rudrank What I’m really looking for is a cloud free way to get Fitbit air data without it going to Google

[Andre Carrera @andr_ec_]

@_philschmid @googlehealth how about doing this without fitbit air hitting google's servers?

[johan @elitasson]

I love Neon Postgres and its branching feature, but last month we spent 58% of our total bill on network traffic. That’s unsustainable.

Will make https://t.co/QR1KvP8Y0M production-ready and move off Neon this month.

@superdoteng can connect to an ssh session yet?

Ai generated prs be like

[Andre Carrera @andr_ec_]

@nbaschez down to look at it

[Andre Carrera @andr_ec_]

I'm sure security is a reason, but I think a huge reason is the possibility of a slop fork of the enterprise features.

[Bailey Pumfleet @pumfleet]

Open source is dead.

That’s not a statement we ever thought we’d make.

@calcom was built on open source. It shaped our product, our community, and our growth. But the world has changed faster than our principles could keep up.

AI has fundamentally altered the security landscape. What once required time, expertise, and intent can now be automated at scale. Code is no longer just read. It is scanned, mapped, and exploited. Near zero cost.

In that world, transparency becomes exposure. Especially at scale.

After a lot of deliberation, we’ve made the decision to close the core @calcom codebase.

This is not a rejection of what open source gave us. It’s a response to what risks AI is making possible.

We’re still supporting builders, releasing the core code under a new MIT-licensed open source project called cal. diy for hobbyists and tinkerers, but our priority now is simple:

Protecting our customers and community at all costs.

This may not be the most popular call.

But we believe many companies will come to the same conclusion.

@haveanicedavid @superdoteng My team and I use ash exclusively so I’ll keep an eye out

@JJEnglert Method 4: the whole team has a nixos vms. The config is set there in a GitHub repo and rebuilt automatically. Overengineered but already had the infra
