I don’t know about this. It’s very interesting that they used to charge a lot of money and now they’re open source. οΏΌ

Grateful for the feedback on SwiftDocX!

I released my first Swift package for Word docs (.docx). Pure Swift, no C++, no paid SDKs.

People asked how to support my work. I set up GitHub Sponsors:

Deploy app servers close to your users Β· Fly

Heroku costs don't scale.

Paying $20/month for 3 apps. We have more ideas to deploy but can't justify the cost as we grow.

Need auto-scaling without managing our own VPS.

Stack: Next.js and Vapor apps

Looking at Railway and Fly.io

What are you using to deploy multiple apps cost-effectively?

I'm curious if there are any #Austin #Tech enthusiasts out here on Bluesky. I've been living in Austin for over 20 years, and I would really love to be a part of local tech based events if things are going on. I've been to a few over the years, but it doesn't seem that there are as many these days.

Claude code is way better. However, at least there’s something built into X code. οΏΌοΏΌοΏΌ

CES 2026 should just be called RoboCES.
Atlas on stage. Hyundai says 30,000 robots by 2028. Nvidia powering humanoid AI.
The robots are here.

I would support iOS 26 for AI apps or other things that require it. And for things that can run I would I would Support 18 as well

Unpopular opinion: You should at least learn the basics before you start vibe coding. You need to know when the AI is giving you garbage.
Am I wrong?

We need to do is have these small models being trained for specific use cases like swift and swift imagine how good that could be. οΏΌ

I will need to check this out. I’ve been really looking into MLX as well. The foundation models do have usefulness. They may not be as good as ChatGPT. οΏΌ
