@itskpflow None good folks do! The art is to carry it with a smile. :)

@StalwartCoder so cool!

sneak peak of worlds fastest speech to text model

[The Pragmatic Engineer @Pragmatic_Eng]

Pi was built when there were already agent harnesses around. Here’s why Mario Zechner(@badlogicgames), found them suboptimal and built Pi, a minimalist self-modifying agent:

#1 - Mario initially was a believer in Claude Code:

"I was a believer in Claude code because they were the first that packaged agentic search up in a really compelling package. And at the time that fit my workflow really well. Everything around the LLM was kind of nice and tidy and easy to understand.

I was super happy. I was proselytising Claude code."

#2 - Reverse engineering Claude Code highlighted the degradation that Mario felt as a user:

"I personally like simple tools that are stable and that I can rely on. Even if they have non-deterministic parts, all the deterministic parts should be as stable as possible.

That was just not the experience with Claude Code around summer 2025. They would take away your control of the context. They would inject stuff behind your back, which is bad. Then, your workflows stopped working because there's now a system reminder that you don't even see in the UI that would modify the behaviour of the model. They would also do this to the system prompt.

I built a little service where I can track the progression or evolution of the system, prompt and tool definitions and, with every release, it was messing with stuff.

That just messed with my workflows and I don't appreciate that."

#3 - PI was built with an appreciation for simple and reliable tools:

"If I commit to a development tool, I want it to be a stable, reliable thing like a hammer. I don't want my hammer to break a different spot every day. That's terrible.

We need somebody who goes the full velocity kind of way. But I don't want to work with a tool like that."

Quick demo of a (legal) way of using Claude Code subscriptions in Pi. Also a show n' tell of my little slopchop diff reviewer. Enjoy this sweet, sweet taste of Pi.

First thing I did with @claudeai Design XD

[Farhaan Bukhsh @fhackdroid]

@kranirudha @ratatui_rs A looks cute!

[Farhaan Bukhsh @fhackdroid]

@brungarc I couldn't agree more :(

Thank you for reviews @hasgeek @fenil_jain_

Looking forward to speaking at Rust India 2026 on From Types To Trust: Safer API Design in Rust

A big reason this matters: good Rust API design can make invalid states and invalid flows impossible at compile time.

[RustINDIA @IndiaRust]

How do you design a tool that’s as reliable as the language it’s written in? @fhackdroid joins us at #RustIndia2026 to share lessons from building Feluda.

Expect a practical session on enums, typestate patterns, and capability modeling that you can apply to your own libraries and internal platforms.

People of pi. BIG NEWS. I've sold out. Let me know how you feel about this in the comments below.

[Farhaan Bukhsh @fhackdroid]

Feluda v1.12.0 — Chhinnamastar Abhishap — is out. 🚀

Docs got a solid cleanup and restructure, the cache module was overhauled, GitHub license fetching was optimized with better Tokio usage, and dependencies were updated.

[OrionPod @orion_pod]

Hellow World to 𝕏 👋

v0.2.3-beta is now available 🚀

We now have a good onboarding process, as per feedback to improve easier getting started...🦀

Also, added a surprise button to aid in finding models 🎉

[Guido van Rossum @gvanrossum]

I've just released a new version of typeagent, a Python library I've been working on since mid last year --more and more using Claude-- that implements memory for agents.

Not originally my idea, I mostly ported the TypeScript version by Steve Lucco and Umesh Madan. This release was improved a lot by Bernhard Merkle.

To install, use "pip install typeagent". Changelog: https://t.co/5tuMTxthTd

[Farhaan Bukhsh @fhackdroid]

TIL: In @Neovim it's magical to create macros of multiple macros and see it unfold.

Fun part, you will only need this if your regex foo is not fooing !

PS: It's cathartic to use the bare editor feature in the time of agents fr!

[Mario Zechner @badlogicgames]

uhm, guess i never explained the purpose of /tree.

it's pi's built-in "single sub-agent mode". i use this for exploration and context gathering. bonus points: the "sub-agent" gets all the context up to the point you branch off from.
