A lot of Bun is inspired by Ruby on Rails

Really exciting to see Herb being adopted at GitHub! 🌿

Over the past months, the GitHub team has been running Herb across one of the largest Rails codebases out there where Herb helped uncover real issues missed by existing tooling while also providing invaluable feedback. 🙌

I upgraded my Claude token counter tool to compare different models and Opus 4.7 does appear to use 1.46x times the tokens for text and up to 3x the tokens for images - it's priced the same as Opus 4.6 on a per-token basis so this is actually a pretty big price bump

Is he telling Allies stop using USD for oil too?

GitLab's founder was told he has bone cancer.

No trials would take him. Doctors signed off.

So he went founder mode on his own survival.

- Built his own treatments
- Used AI to analyze his own tumor data
- Open-sourced 25TB of his medical records for any researcher on earth

Relapse-free since 2025.

The system said he was out of options.

He made his own.

Introducing the new dev-browser cli.

The fastest way for an agent to use a browser is to let it write code.

Just `npm i -g dev-browser` and tell your agent to "use dev-browser"

Claude Code will write all my code, but leaves it to me to figure out when 8am UTC is.

@saumil @mistressdivy An ex TM engineer explained to me "management knows its the wrong word but they like it better"

[Dr Nic @drnic]

@saumil @mistressdivy It's ok to have a random selection of who buys tickets next, but do not say "You're in the queue" to someone who waits 8 hours to buy Swift tickets. It's not a queue. Everyone knows how a queue works.

[Dr Nic @drnic]

@saumil @mistressdivy Please don't use the word "queue" unless its a first in, first out queue.

What's the best license to open source macOS & iOS apps so people can fix bugs, add features, etc. but only the company can distribute the binaries? Also business use must be paid, but free for personal use.

Cancelling my OpenAI subscription a month due to “bad vibes of their mgmt” seems well founded from their double speak today

Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network.

In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome.

AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement.

We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only.

We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements.

We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

I discovered Claude code had decided on tabs in a new project. I senior engineered that back to spaces. I didn’t write the code; but I choose the whitespace.
