Glide OS is almost here.
It is an entirely new way to Glide.

@mitsuhiko @badlogicgames @antirez What tasks do you find that model useful for?

[Glide @glideapps]

Hey everyone, @markprobst here 👋 I'm Glide's Co-Founder, and also the co-creator of Fling. Claude Code's missing 'Publish' button.

Glide's other Co-Founder, @jassmith87, and I built Fling over about 2 months on the hunch that giving @claudeai Code an easy-to-use “Publish” button would unlock it for a larger group of users.

When you use Claude Code, you describe what you want, and Claude writes the code. But publishing your software to the web requires a whole lot of additional work.

Fling handles all of that extra work: bundling, deployment, databases, cron jobs, storage, secrets, and routing. No infrastructure knowledge is required when you're 'Flinging'.

Want to try fling for yourself?
It's free to use (for now) for up to 5 projects:

Looking forward to hearing what you think about Fling!

@IceSolst @steipete We don’t write tests and do the other things to guard against bugs in the compiler. The analogy is completely wrong.

People of pi, I present pi-current-pr

A super simple extension that shows the current PR you're on.

@mitsuhiko I agree and yet I use it. Would love to have a better alternative!

@chribjel Nobody knows what a MiB of GiB is. It'll be MB and GB, and they'll be powers of two until I retire. Then you can change it all.

@exQUIZitely And to think that the Atari 2600 had 128 bytes of RAM, and ran games like this (River Raid)!

We're orders of magnitude away from using today's hardware efficiently.

Banking was a software business before computers and software existed.

[markprobst @markprobst]

@badlogicgames Is it? They're doing a very good job at making it look like it's based on spans, at least.

[markprobst @markprobst]

@ianjanicki It’s a kit, that’s all you get. But of course it can call other services. No paid tier for now.

[markprobst @markprobst]

@ianjanicki You just tell Claude Code to build and deploy an app, no infrastructure worries. Comes with database, storage, cron jobs, email send/receive, Slack/Discord bots.

@mitsuhiko Can they agree that 0.3333… = 1/3 ?

@aboodman @geoffreylitt Congratulations!!!

@carlsverre We switched from Daytona to Modal because of reliability issues. Happy to chat.
