Makes me think about the session start/refresh hook and if you could also programmatically create a masked neon db.

Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition Plans Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.

Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice.

We noticed.

I really want to give the new Codex desktop app a try but it absolutely smashes your battery. We're talking like 1% every couple minutes :(

GitHub - ascorbic/macrodata: Give Claude Code and OpenCode persistent, self-maintaining memory and autonomous scheduling. Give Claude Code and OpenCode persistent, self-maintaining memory and autonomous scheduling. - ascorbic/macrodata

I've built Macrodata: a plugin that gives Claude Code and OpenCode self-organising memory and autonomous scheduling.

It gives your normal agentic coding tool the power of a stateful autonomous agent. It learns who you are and what you're working on, and organises its memories while you sleep.

Instructional diagram about adaptive images on GitHub.
- Method 1 (HTML): A code snippet using `<picture>` with `<source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" ...>` and a corresponding dark version.
- Method 2 (Markdown): Code snippet showing `![Logo](...#gh-dark-mode-only)` and `![Logo](...#gh-light-mode-only)`.
- Visual Output: Arrows point from the code to two versions of the "ariakit" logo—one optimized for a dark background (white text) and one for a light background (black text).

I want this next generation of software development tools to run on my own computer. Vim and Emacs helped democratize software development and made it accessible. We shouldn't allow this AI wave to take us backwards.

I really hope the open source community can keep pace.

I wanted to add transcription to my notes app, but I wanted to do it differently. What if while you're talking, an agent can answer your questions as they come up?

In this UI, we transcribe on the bottom and answer your questions on the top. At the end, we format it all as one nice note ✏️

Pushing Nitro and H3 to their limits!

Full server bundle: 12 KB (~4.5 KB gzip) with 95%+ bare-runtime performance — and still improving.

The Nitro + H3 + Vite stack is nearing a truly seamless, runtime-agnostic full-stack server toolchain.

Vitest 4 comes with a new `expect.schemaMatching` API that uses standardschema.dev behind the scenes. Now, you can use @valibot.dev, @zod.dev, @arktype.io, etc. to test your code! This is huge! 📈

✨ H3.dev now natively supports { fetch } handler format.

This means you can plug in any web-compat framework (like @hono.dev or @elysiajs.com with @nitro.build’s filesystem routing out of the box 🤝

Standards + interop FTW! ❤️

Prettier 3.6: Experimental fast CLI and new OXC and Hermes plugins! · Prettier This release includes several important feature additions that we're excited to share with you.

After running "oxc-parser" against almost 200k files I had on my laptop and reporting tens of issues that have been closed one after the other, you can now use OXC to speedup Prettier 🚀

Thanks @boshen.github.io & many others, it was a fun project!

"How productive are your developers?" or "How easy is it for your developers to do the right thing?"

I bet you've been part of teams that measure productivity with ticket counts, burndown charts, or lines of code, but real productivity in software is about feedback, flow, and focus.

Teacher Fund is a wonderful org, and they're doing a fundraising event to fully support some classrooms for the next school year!

They specifically take care of classrooms/schools in low-income communities and are hoping to support 20 new teachers this next year.
