Today we're launching our first public Poolside models: Laguna M.1 and Laguna XS.2, and we've built ❈Shimmer, an instant-on VM sandbox with Poolside Agent pre-installed so you can try them out.
Go play out our new models for free, and build something fun → shimmer.run

Today we’re releasing Laguna XS.2, Poolside’s first open-weight model.
It’s a 33B total / 3B active MoE model built for agentic coding and long-horizon tasks.
Trained fully in-house on our own stack. Runs on a single GPU. Released under Apache 2.0.

Ruby has `if`, `unless`, and `elsif`. I wish it would be courageous and define `elsless` for the sake of completeness slash rampant confusion

puts "Sure 🙄"
elsless other_thing_didnt_not_happen?
puts "Nice 😎"

An absolutesly staggering, incredible, impressively naive misunderstanding of why someone would use Heroku and the benefits.
This is right up there with “I could build Dropbox in a weekend”.

Since 'Homer Loves Flanders' first aired 27 years ago today, here's the storyboard and script excerpt for the moment that spawned the meme. This was David Mirkin's idea, based on a childhood habit he had of walking through neighbour's hedges (not a 'Terminator 2' reference).

I think it's time to discuss the efficacy of Pull Request Reviews as a way to ensure code quality and shared understanding on software teams. Here's a little thread on some of the experiences I've had in my career, why I think this matters, and what we can do about it.
