@claudeai Europe be like

OpenAI is bringing its frontier AI models, including GPT-6 Astra, and its Codex coding tool to Google Cloud in the coming weeks.

It’s a major shift: OpenAI’s models were long available to cloud customers mainly through Microsoft’s Azure. Now its biggest rival in AI, Google, will sell access too.

@Kedeodev Opus 5.5 all day 🚀

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@jevlorde Thank you, Jev! Are you team native android or cross platform? Also, which model are you using for coding ?

[Martin @justSoloDev]

At this burn rate, I wonder how much longer the monthly plans will remain available..

JUST IN: Anthropic recorded a staggering $80,000,000,000.00 net loss in the first half of 2026.

3 steps to becoming an actual software programmer

1. Build personal software
2. Build internal software (for a select group of people)
3. Build public-facing software

If you've only ever built personal software you're not qualified to build public-facing yet.

As you climb the rungs the stakes get higher, your constraints get tighter, and you need to QA harder.

So my advice for anyone who's never built an app is this:

Find a small group of testers (even 1 is great) that will actually use an app you built in their real lives.

The feedback you'll get will blow your mind. It'll show you how forgiving you are of your own crappy product. You'll begin to focus on process and quality.

It'll be frustrating, slow, and hard work.

That's programming.

@jevlorde Hey Jev, connected 🤝 what are you building at the moment?

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@tecstoic The old school way, contacting businesses that would potentially use the product

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@OliverBugar Are you using them side by side at the moment? I am thinking of doing the same but need to compare them first

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@samuel_yostt Congrats! Keep up the good work 🚀

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@MapleZireael First word was baguette 👌😂 UI is looking good. I would only change the onboarding to not be a pop-up but more like a wizard with next button

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@MapleZireael Thank you!
Is the game live? Would love to try it 🙌

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@orendev_ Thanks for the shoutout, Oren! Really appreciate it 🚀

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@optimalfocus Congrats! I am just starting the journey at 0$.
Lets connect 🤝

[Martin @justSoloDev]

@adel_ljaljic Thank you! It is in the to-do list. Do you think that there should be a "skip onboarding" option for users that don't want to go over the whole flow?
