Hey mom I'm on stackoverflow

Quint@quint-lang.org

Quint made it onto The Stack Overflow Podcast. A few things @bugarela.com gets into with Ryan Donovan: → why “you’re absolutely wrong” is the answer engineers actually want → the Kubernetes fix Quint rejected before it failed in prod → how writing the spec finds bugs before you run a single tool

Leslie Lamport asks, “Who builds a house without drawing blueprints?” We ask, “Who chews a tree without listening for cracks?”

More speed, more check marks, more formal verification. None of it matters without understanding. Catch the whole conversation with @bugarela.com on the Type Theory Forall podcast.

🏴‍☠️ Novo patrocinador a bordo: @quint-lang.org ! A Quint é uma linguagem open source de especificação executável. Com ela você descreve o comportamento do sistema e verifica se ele está certo antes que o bug chegue em produção.

I cannot draw, but I have cool illustration ideas and hand them over to people that can actually draw. When I got this one, my heart was warmed 💜 Humans craft and have taste. Robots are tools.

Quint@quint-lang.org

Making software is a craft. We don't need to become managers. We are just crafting at a different level. Find tools that respect your craft.

I updated my personal website (bugarela.com) today. I have been wondering what kind of blog setting I want for ages, and now I think I have a perfect solution with @leaflet.pub for editing/subscriptions and then rendering the posts from PDS directly on my website with my own styles. Love it!

not only was she one of the first, she is credited for literally coining the phrase "software engineer". photos like these inspired me so much when I was in school!

bryan newbold@bnewbold.net

ah damn, RIP Margaret Hamilton. she took safety-critical software engineering seriously, and got people to the moon and back. news.mit.edu/2026/margare...

The beginning of a beautiful journey 💜

One month of Quint Studio. Beta users have been generating specs, swiping behavior cards, and letting Studio write tests, and we're so grateful for everyone who's been in there with us. Stay tuned for what's next. 💜

I spent too much time outside the house this weekend and now I need a new weekend to play around with computer stuff like Pi Durable

New release: Quint v0.33.0 is out! With performance improvements, bug fixes, and support for action properties. You can now write temporal properties about the transitions of your model and check them with TLC ✨ Leaving a star on our repo would mean a lot to us ⭐

Help us build this and sorry in advance if we got something wrong!

Quint@quint-lang.org

We put together a practical reference to formal verification tools: quint.sh/guides/form... If you're getting started, use it to explore the landscape. If you're already an expert, help us make it better.

Read this interview that I typed word by word on my purple keyboard, straight from my brain to your screen :)

Our CEO @bugarela.com was featured in @techradar.com today on what's changed in trust with AI writing code. "AI is a generation tool, which is only as good as our ability to decide if a generated solution is correct or not." x.com/techradar/s...

So cool to see the new kinds of Quint success stories appearing organically as the industry changes

Quint@quint-lang.org

Don't you love when you're randomly listening to a podcast while working, and you hear yourself mentioned? Great conversation with Tessl on the @ainativedev.io podcast about their dark factory. Quint got a shoutout for helping provide effective guardrails along the way.

The early reviews are in, and we're grateful. Thank you to everyone testing Quint Studio and telling us what you think. And these are only the public notes. The private feedback has been just as generous 💜

Quint Studio is now on beta! Yes, it's a desktop app. Yes, it's a graphical interface. It's also an MCP server (which you host locally). It will help you understand how your software behaves, find unexpected behavior, and improve your existing test suite to enforce behavior you care about.

Quint@quint-lang.org

Say hello to Quint Studio! Software is full of decisions about how things should work: what happens first, what gets retried, who can do what, and what should never happen.

The more we can enjoy making software correct, the more correct software will exist. But if important things keep depending on us reading markdown, I'm afraid of where we are will end up. So I'll fight for fun!

Quint@quint-lang.org

Remember when programming was fun?

Me: has to work on a marketing video Also me: completely over-engineers the process to minimize boredom. (Script to take footage, python code to render preview video as I add the shots, claude cropping and speeding up parts of the video... All before I send it for editing)

I'm so happy to see Quint getting lots of attention from the Japanese community 💜 This might become a really good excuse to visit Tokyo for the first time 👀

Quint@quint-lang.org

A special thank you to @mizchi.bsky.social and the wider Japanese community. We are grateful for the attention and excited to see what you all build next.

The Quint community has been busy this summer, from bug hunts in production systems to freshly verified consensus protocols. A few highlights we loved seeing:

I don't know how people manage multiple agents working on the same repo at the same time with git. I've been using @jj-vcs.dev and it feels really great, but just imagining the equivalent in git gives me a headache. Maybe people just let the agents handle git? I like being in control of my VCS.

For some reason, specifically on Friday afternoons, I like to work listening to Brazilian music, mostly on speakers (which I don't do often). Might be something about convincing my brain that the week is ending.

When Charles Hoskinson and his 🐙 call Lean + Quint + Rust "the stack of stacks of stacks," we'll take it. Nothing makes us happier than seeing Quint pushed in ambitious new directions.

Curious about Quint but not sure where to start? This thread covers the open source tooling, and a quick word on what's next 🧵

Maybe we gotta spend some company money and get an octopus to each member of the team 🤔

If AI writes the code, what's left for engineers? @bugarela.com's answer on the @infoq.com podcast: the work that always required the most thought. Defining correct behavior, reasoning about every ordering of events, catching the edge cases. AI won't take the fun part away.
