Claude Opus 4.5, and why evaluating new LLMs is increasingly difficult
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.5 this morning, which they call “best model in the world for coding, agents, and computer use”. This is their attempt to retake the crown for …

This Banana Pro model by Google is pretty good at turning docs into visuals, here by the example of the Claude Agent SDK overview page platform.claude.com/docs/en/agen...

Tried a couple of things today across gpt5.1, sonnet 4.5 and Gemini 3 in their respective web UIs - Gemini 3 was quite a lot better in matching my expectations for the given prompts and might become my daily driver for non coding tasks.

2 minutes into using Antigravity - on a Gemini Ultra plan 🤔

Too many ideas of what I'd like to build, and the question is shifting from "can I build this" more towards "do I wanna support this" - to which the answer is no almost always no :D

"Google Antigravity is so advanced, it's setting up my account in a different dimension. I've aged 5 years and I still haven't reached the next dot. At this rate, the Gemini model will have finished writing its own sequel before this loads. " - Gemini 3 about the Google Antigravity loading screen

The ultimate unlock... Gemini 3 + Gemini CLI has arrived 🚀🚀🚀

Now to avoid melting too many TPUs we're going to be iteratively rolling out the support (it's quite epic). See blog post for more details: developers.googleblog.com/en/5-things-...

#GeminiCLI #Gemini3 #OSS #Gemini

See it in action 👇

I created a MVT Tileserver based on DuckDB and the spatial extension:

github.com/tobilg/duckd...

Just create a new DuckDB database with one or more tables with a geometry column, and use it when starting the server.

Or, create a view that points to a remote dataset, e.g. a GeoParquet on S3.

Scribe v2 just flexed: true live ASR that actually keeps up.

ElevenLabs positions Scribe v2 Realtime for agents, meetings, and any app needing instant speech→text. The pitch: state‑of‑the‑art accuracy at low latency, robust in noise, and broad language support with enterprise‑grade compliance.

Trying a claude skill in claude.ai to interact with Google Drive apis or GCP apis, but it seems like thats blocked for some reasons. Other apis / urls seem to work though, a bit weird. Maybe that's more Google itself blocking the requests, I guess.

Mainmatter is looking for an experienced Rust developer to join one of our projects as a freelancer.

We're migrating a database from C to Rust. The project is complex and performance-sensitive. That's what makes it fun!

If you're interested, send an email to the address in the screenshot.

I just launched github.com/tobilg/sql-w...

It's a tiny (<10kb gzipped) wrapper around @duckdb.org WASM that can run queries interactively, and be embedded in plain HTML websites, as well as all other mayor frontend frameworks...

It's an early version, feedback warmly appreciated!
