#mnstr has launched on iOS! https://t.co/xtSeL0NjTe

So freaking happy!

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@Deal_po Wow! This is fucking awesome! I was developing my own for a new game, but this looks so much better!

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@rustaceans_rs Refactoring @mnstrapp server and adding gRPC support

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.

It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

Yes! Love this feel!

[Gothul @GothulPixel]

@radvincen I'll do the same as the goblins did to me with my new bow. Few hours until the next chapter is out!

@ScienceFocusonX Time to get another one!

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@dhh I'm so stuck in my habits, that I installed everything on Omarchy before I even thought of Mise...

Mise looks great though! I'll give it a try on some projects.

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@MjTheHunter Btw, your game looks freaking cool!

If anyone on my feed hasn't seen it yet, check it out!

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

I hear you. I've been there when I was younger.

The thing about abilities is that they grow. If you don't have the best abilities now, keep at it; you will have them over time.

I'm so confident about my abilities because I've had over 30 years to build my base and I've developed the ability to grow new abilities. You can have that too!

While you work on them, do the best you can and acknowledge to yourself that you will do better next time. It's ok to not have met your ideal results. You can improve it with updates and new versions later.

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@ravikiran_dev7 It depends on why you're coding. Are you coding to build things that you want? For things that you think others want? Or to just make money?

Motivations, not tech, decide what's worth doing.

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@orgunbertan Who are you following to get such a glorious feed?

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@dhh I've trusted most of your ideas since Ruby on Rails v1. I'm sure I'll enjoy this too!

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@HowToAI_ Except humanity is not a zero sum game: incentives are not the same for every individual. Some people learn, work, build because they enjoy it. Creatives exist!

This paper does not take that variable into account and the math becomes invalidated.

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

Which makes me wonder. To all y'all programmers, how long have you been coding?

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

This makes me wonder how many people have been coding for over 30 years. It feels like newer coders have different motivations for coding than older coders.

Is this true for the rest of you veterans? How about those newer to programming?

[Samantha Simonhoff @RealProductGirl]

AI is taking the fun out of the build and I think we need to say that out loud.

Building was never just about the output. It was about the people in the room, the late nights, the arguments, the breakthroughs you only reach *together*. That friction? That's where creativity lives.

Now we build alone and in silence. Have we traded collaboration for convenience? I'm not sure we got the better deal. 🤔

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@RealProductGirl Building has never been about collaboration for me. What's driven me to code for over 30 years has been the joy of showing other people my ideas, my clever hacks, and watching them use what I've built.

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@GergelyOrosz This is so stupid! I've been a victim of this kind of layoff more than once in the past couple of years. It's disgraceful

[m3talsmith @m3talsmith]

@rndhouse @dhh I wonder sometimes if people even realize that Ruby has a type system...
