Love all systems - Distributed, Operating, and ML systems are all cool!

There is a kind of intelligence in larger models like fable that is lost when distilling down it seems, you lose the "it actually gets it" feel

PaSh finally got a PyPI package (https://t.co/ZKnKQ2NRIV) 🎉

Install with `pip install pash` and start parallelizing your 🫵 shell scripts today!

[Jeff Dean @JeffDean]

We’ve pushed out the Pareto frontier of efficiency vs. intelligence again.

With Gemini 3 Flash ⚡️, we are seeing reasoning capabilities previously reserved for our largest models, now running at Flash-level latency. This opens up entirely new categories of near real-time applications that require complex thought.

It’s available in the API, and rolling out today as the default model in AI Mode in Search and Gemini app globally.

@ai_for_success Far from killed, cursor is sticky and even simple line completions are better in cursor for me.

Over a year ago, I built https://t.co/jDHzDWYCdo, a simple side project that notifies U.S immigrants when the visa bulletin is released. Hopefully no one here will ever need to know what that is.

I used cloudflare workers cron (runs every minute), and pages (Astro). It's been running the whole time with no maintenance whatsoever, except when the mailchannels integration got phased out.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

Hmm, this is tempting me to build a @pocketbase equivalent on top of durable objects.

[Cloudflare Developers @CloudflareDev]

Or, put another way: we've brought zero-latency SQLite storage to every Durable Object.

the @Firebase Data Connect emulator is using:

◆ pglite by @ElectricSQL
◆ pg-gateway by @supabase

... and this is awesome. This is 100% how open source should work. More collaboration helps everyone - many thanks to the Firebase team 🫡

@astrodotbuild needs to slow down. I keep telling new friends why they should use ASTRO but now the list is too long.

[Astro @astrodotbuild]

A constellation of docs features appears ✨

Starlight v0.28 is out now!

@yacineMTB Cause it's fun, especially with AI. The biggest problem I have with AI is that it can cause brain rot. I find myself sometimes trying repeatedly to get the AI to do what I want when the solution is to sit down, read the code, and do it myself.

if you argue “[some language] will replace Python/JavaScript” I feel you need to acknowledge the history that over 30 years, Python and JS have steamrolled over hundreds of other scripting languages and derivatives — many of them promising!

Python and JS are just very good

@levelsio I run it on my rtx 4090 rig and set a cloudflare tunnel to use it from anywhere over internet.

@_swanson Is this just adding foreign keys? Foreign keys don't add index in most dbs by the way, you need a unique constraint or manually create index.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

Why is honojs streaming so slow. It's 4x slower for me than directly `ReadableStream`.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

Both Experienced engineers and noobs use LLMs but the results are worlds apart.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

The amount of garbage code being generated by llms and submitted to GitHub is crazy.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

@yacineMTB Yeah it's terrible. Performs worse than Llama3 for me.

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

@levelsio I'm surprised you found any Airbnb for this price in NYC tbh

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

In what ways is using @sveltejs better than using @astrodotbuild in SSR mode?

Astro seems to have a pretty solid CSR and SSR story. Am I missing any quality of life features by using it instead of sveltekit for interactive apps?

[Tammam Mustafa @tammamtech]

@yacineMTB Yeah Go or Rust is where it's at for my 1 user app
