@robelestifanos_ @convex How can this be cheaper than S3+CloudFront that is basically free?

Or R2+cloudflare CDN?

@justfly1984 @kentcdodds have you seen the memes about gpt 5.5, it goes well over the line where it's reasonable, it wants to do runtime type and null checks of every single variable

@legen_eth you should have just bought sandisk and forget about it :P

PRs are a bureaucratic tax, they exists only to let review agents run (as long as that is needed for technical choices), who understands this will fly.

[Theo - t3.gg @theo]

I underestimated how cool this workflow is.

Had Codex go through a bunch of stale PRs last night. Closed all the useless ones, revived all the out of date ones.

Each "revived" pr got a thread to build it and a 2nd to review it.

In 2026 the position in tech of Europe is dramatic but things can get much worse ⬇️

@mikeysee @midjourney plot twist

shoes becoming AI
AI becoming SPA

What if convex becomes a fast food chain tomorrow?

[Ray Thurn Void @raythurnvoid]

Trusted people like @webdevcody asking if today as a junior does it even makes sense to learn code

I think yes but

When I was learning to write code, we used to write it occasionally on paper and we did a lot of flowcharts

That part was absolutely useless, on the other hand we also learned about how the CPU the network and the memory allocation works, that was useful even without being a low level software developer

Today junior MUST use agents, it sucks that AI for them is basically a tax on learning, hopefully local models will come to the rescue there, but they also have to learn about the CPU, network, RAM and the peculiarities of the tech stack they pick to become actually good

To not care is also an option, we did not had to wait for AI to get developers that were horrible at programming and did not udnerstand the most basic things, AI gives to this people the illusion they can ship like a good dev, they can't, they never will because they do not care

@TheCodingSloth1 Not coding but it's quite handy to open it from Android, i use it only from mobile.

[akira @realmcore_]

Almost officially agentmaxxing

And the code is good

Because I read all of it and am pedantic during the review process

[React Router @ReactRouter]

React Router v8 is now available!

- All v7 future flags are now the default (Middleware, Vite env API, Split Route Modules, etc.)
- ESM-only
- New baselines: node 22+, React 19+, Vite 7+
- Easy upgrade from v7

[Charlie Marsh @charliermarsh]

At OpenAI, we're continuing to bet on Rust as the future of systems programming.

I'm proud to announce that we're making a $600,000 commitment to the Rust Foundation, which combines our Platinum membership with additional support for maintainer efforts across the Rust ecosystem.

Anybody remember this $BIRD ?. it's flying.

@ryolu_ What if Composer 3 is Fable 5 level intelligence?

@arthurmensch Does it makes mistakes?

A top interview with a top guest, must watch

We can call this interview "AI beyond the hype: what actually works"

[Jan-Niklas Wortmann @wordmandotdev]

@reillyjodonnell @benln I actually like prop drilling, it makes explicit what a component needs and is passing down

[Ray Thurn Void @raythurnvoid]

The Fable case should make you think how hard european countries are failing, we only think ways to screw each other to get some more money from EU central bank each year, we fumbled MERCOSUL, 28th regime, EU Army. In the most critical moment european countries failed to change.
