Since Claude is down we probably can see a traffic spike on Pornhub for all the vibe coders.

Apple’s new Liquid Glass: stylish effect with fluid animations - reviving early-2000s Aqua vibes. Critics see issues: accessibility, wasted GPU power, and nostalgia instead of innovation. Apple's goal? Reinforce native apps over web. But real fix needed is App Store economics, not just UI tweaks.

Mistral launched Magistral, a reasoning model. Glad to see a european model provider. A bit sad that only the small one is open weight and that it's lagging far behind Deepseek. The medium one is quite good.

Apple Glas :-) Who of you is old enough to remember Aqua?

OpenAI released Codex; I’ve been underwhelmed by Sonnet lately: I asked an agent to implement Rails/Turbo drag-and-drop, but it produced subpar code with a nasty page reload instead of Hotwire. Only step-by-step instructions yielded an acceptable solution. Let's see how it measures up to Codex.

To all the vibe coders out there. A nice compilations of blindspots that an AI has while developing software:

Google just released their open source Gemma 3 LLM - you can access it easily via Ollama ollama.com/library/gemma3

I've dabbled with a lot of vision models (ChatGPT Vision, LLAMA Vision) to replace our OCR chain (Google Document Cloud and then an LLM to clean and process). Unfortunately they were hallucinating too much or gave suboptimal results.

Mistral OCR looks really promising:

@joshuawood.net kudos to the Honeybadger EU region. Big fans of your service. BTW: Any chance to get on your Rails Starter Kit list?

@rsmwall.dev hello - what would I need to do to get listed in your Rails starter pack?

Yesterday, I released a tiny MCP server that allows Cursor Editor to get up-to-date version information for external Hex dependencies. Someone suggested doing a version for #RubyOnRails, so I built a more generic version that supports Ruby Gems, Hex, PyPI, and NPM.
