Software engineer. Ran software innovations agency for 4 years, got acquired in 2024. Now I share what I learned. No hype, just the real stuff.

My company got acquired. So now I'm going to teach.

4 years running a software innovations agency → a lot of hard-won lessons about building software that actually works.

This account is where I share them. No fluff. Just the real stuff.

Now, what's most amazing about LLMs is this!

I asked Codex to hand-craft an Arm-Mac assembly version to match the functionality of https://t.co/gPIyhUqXXE... and the result is super awesome and elegant.. instead of the 3.5MB resulting assembly via Cython-generated C, we have a beautiful 60-line Assembly file.. see image in reply 👇

OpenAI 🤝 Cloudflare.

super excited for this to roll out even more widely.

@withmantle Coops are the best!!

This is a great recap. The most important takeaway, true in pre-AI era as much as post: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞

Guys, MCP is awesome but you don’t need an MCP to communicate with an IMAP server. You don’t need MCP to communicate with an API server.

Worth a read for security aware developers https://t.co/L3Rjjp5Hnl

Turns out Gemini and Google Maps (and other services) share the same API keys... but Google Maps API keys are designed to be public, since they are embedded directly in web pages. Gemini API keys can be used to access private files and make billable API requests -@simonw

@madsf88 Like riding a bike or skiing, by doing! But also “put on a helmet” and start slow:
- isolated VM or VPS
- only private/paired Telegram BOT
- no access to your email or socials, if you must give it a dedicated/separated email

OpenAI WebSocket mode shines when a workflow needs lots of model‑tool round‑trips (e.g., agentic coding or orchestration loops).
By keeping the connection open and sending only incremental input each turn, it cuts per‑turn overhead and slashes latency:

Introducing WebSockets in the Responses API.

Built for low-latency, long-running agents with heavy tool calls.

Firefox 148 ships with an AI kill switch: One toggle to turn off all AI features.

This highlights an important fact: AI integrations are rolling out faster than user trust is being earned.

The best way to learn software development is by building! So grab your laptop, grab a cup of coffee, park yourself for a couple of hours somewhere nice and focus-inducing and go through this tutorial!

1. Stripe’s minions now ship ~1.3k PRs/week with zero human-written code. They run in devboxes (10 s spin-up, caches hot) so every agent gets a clean workspace without touching laptops.

[Integral Software @ask_Integral]

3. Cursor/Claude rule files plus their internal “Toolshed” MCP give each minion scoped best practices and a curated tool belt. Super interesting read for folks interested in coding agents infrastructure. 👇

@sajalshlan I like this one. If you want an extra challenge do them in C instead of Python: https://t.co/wascJE14vk

@arorachakit Absolutely. Perfection is the enemy of progress!

[Integral Software @ask_Integral]

@Prathkum Yes. And I came across traces today which let’s you see/share your convo. This one made me smile (it was such an unlock moment for me!) https://t.co/FzCmgaA3Ch

@andrewchen it’s beyond that actually. I never imagined being able to do this over the course of many weekends, let alone in an hour with CC: building a native Mac app for easy video cropping!
