Here's my 2024 Year in Code Head over to git-wrapped.com

I really like using @upstash.bsky.social services. - Redis - QStash - Workflow These are QOL improvements as a developer to quickly build what I need.

I have been seeing as though almost everyone on Twitter/X are building dashboard designs.

It would be really nice if @anthropic.com can lower the price of 3.7 Sonnet model so that Claude Code will be slightly cheaper.

In this very day and age, the number of exactly the same software wrappers are growing exponentially.

📅 Reminder: Node.js 18 is scheduled to reach End-of-Life on April 30, 2025. We recommend that you update to Node.js 20 or 22 as Node.js 18 will no longer receive security updates once it reaches End-of-Life.

fun little detail on overreacted.io: the color of each post on the homepage is determined by the relative age of the post. so posts written around the same time have a similar hue

okay this is fantastic news actually github.com/vercel/next....

So… @cloudflare-dev.bsky.social announced and released so many things this week. Where do we start from?

Welcoming the era of the World Wide Nextjs

Why does this app keeps logging me out so often?

CI/CD for monorepo is a huge headache

It’s funny how this day and age, your purchase needs to be dictated by strangers on the internet.

In this day and age, at least Audi is making real cars. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQE6...

What if Claude goes down, or hitting rate limit errors? Gemini 2.5 Pro is the alternative for coders.

There is too much “emotional” decisions to the extent people are completely moving codebase due to 1 incident. It’s funny when moving codebase would likely result in more problems instead.

Did not realise that a Vercel cult existed on the other platform (IYKYK)

One of the biggest problem using Next is that their dev server (next-server) completely blows up my RAM usage.

Next.js 15.2.3 includes a security vulnerability patch. We recommend updating to 15.2.3 or backported patches. If you cannot update, we have included guidance for how to protect your application. Apps on Vercel, Netlify, and Cloudflare are not affected. nextjs.org/blog/cve-202...

Seeing some chatter over at Twitter on Claude 3.7 Sonnet Max. It looks like a marketing stunt from Cursor and is not an official @anthropic.com snapshot. Under the hood, the 3.7 Sonnet Max is likely just additional headers to use the extended thinking feature.

Finally Deep Research on the GeminiApp. It is so good because of Google already powerful search engine.

Gemini 2.0 Flash for coding seems to be hallucinating way too much.

10K followers! 💜

We're halfway to 10K! Who isn't testing their apps? 👀

I am definitely excited for the Google’s Gemini App to support Deep Research soon.

Will Claude just stop creating React components for anything related to analysts and charts? WTF

Tesla share price crashed Twitter (X)?

Does anyone know if Claude Code has support for cached inputs?

Apple standing up for Advanced Data Protection is way more important than it seems

I have not joined Vercel

There is something interesting with Claude Code. It switches the model usage dynamically. As per the screenshot, if there are simpler tasks, it switches to the 3.5 Haiku model which is more efficient and also cheaper.

Loving what the new Claude 3.7 Sonnet can do. Prompting right from the terminal with context of my entire monorepo project.

docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/abou... Claude 3.7 Sonnet comes with no extra charge when compared to the previous 3.5 Sonnet.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet is coming!

Ongoing work for @rolldown.rs : - Rolldown-Vite ecosystem CI (~60% passing) - Full bundle mode HMR - Incremental build - Module Federation (built-in support) - oxc minifier improvements (built-in, already with better compression ratio than esbuild and 6-9x faster than swc)

Absolutely love this new feature from Neon Postgres neon.tech/blog/neon-au...

What is LinkedIn? Can eat?

I believe it is called the Gulf of Mexico.

You never really will ever need a 4K monitor as a developer. This is my greatest mistake made in 2025 yet.

Just came to a realisation that the ChatGPT macOS app is NOT an Electron app. That is quite impressive!

Excited to be receiving my new monitor - LG 27UP850K tomorrow to replace the now spoilt Huawei MateView GT 34-inch
