The replies are wild. Folks jump straight to the technical part and miss how much mastery goes into knowing what makes a thoughtful scenario, what to emphasize or simplify, and the effort it takes to execute well. Not because you know the recipe means you can cook a 3-star dish.

WHO IS MAING THESE VIDEOS they are so well done. I need to see the process they use to slice up and animate the UI

"AI companies needed human openness to build their models, but will also kill the openness because the relationship is one-sided."

Ok, this is insanely cool.
🚨SOMEONE REINVENTED HOW TEXT RENDERS ON THE WEB AND ITS ABSOLUTELY INSANE. the goated dev behind react, reasonML, and midjourney’s frontend, just dropped Pretext. a tiny typescript library that measures and lays out text 500x faster than the DOM. he trained models against real browser rendering for weeks until the output matched safari, chrome, and firefox exactly. the demos are insane!! hundreds of thousands of text boxes at 120fps. magazine layouts and chat bubbles that actually wrap right. engineers from Vercel, Remix, Figma, and shadcn all cosigned. this is the kind of open source that makes you want to be a better dev. here are some cool demos in the past 24hrs👇

Being part of the staff of #ReactParis from @BeJS_ this year was amazing! So good to see all that energy flowing in the room; I'm really happy for all the friends I've seen and can't wait for the next one! @frontstuff_io @tejask @Una @spontoreau @figma @o_jilla @Aymen_Ben_Amor

Impressive learnings from the Payfit migration from microfrontends to monorepo and platformization. Not just metrics, but the process of earning trust and proving value over mandates. Bravo @beaussan ! #ReactParis

How to share UI and behavior at scale with different data restrictions? Taylor Quinn-Bohmann touches on module federation, and how to treat the frontend as a platform instead of a collection of isolated applications. #ReactParis

Insanely great talk on how to achieve the Apple Liquid Glass effect in the browser 🤯 And this is @KubeKhrm’s FIRST TALK! Way to go! #ReactParis

The quality of AI training data means AI-generated React code can get littered with anti-patterns. @choubari_ goes through them and shares the right habits to adopt to avoid turning your codebase into a nightmare. #ReactParis

Fascinating talk by @gabrielpichot on the problems we keep on having, no matter how modern our stack becomes. Try his domainlint CLI and pass the output to your coding agent to fix. #ReactParis

You can equally be enthusiastic about generative AI, and find it unsufferable that this is all everyone talks about and thinks about.

Coding agents are commoditizing the skills we built our identity on. I wrote about what that means, why it hurts, and what might be on the other side. sarahdayan.com/blog/whats-le…

sent this to the team today everything great comes from being able to delay gratification for as long as possible and it feels like we're collectively losing our ability to do that

"You can’t work with these people anymore." Or maybe you can give people a second to stomach one of the biggest changes of probably their entire career.
I've never seen this before in my career: 28-30 year olds who refuse to use AI coding tools. You show them what they can do augmented (not replaced) with AI and you see in their eyes that they have no damn clue of what's happening. You can't work with these people anymore. Time used to pass over older generations slowly. Now it's passing over us at the peak of our careers. Sadly, adaptability isn't optional at this point.

Prof. Donald Knuth opened his new paper with "Shock! Shock!" Claude Opus 4.6 had just solved an open problem he'd been working on for weeks — a graph decomposition conjecture from The Art of Computer Programming. He named the paper "Claude's Cycles." 31 explorations. ~1 hour. Knuth read the output, wrote the formal proof, and closed with: "It seems I'll have to revise my opinions about generative AI one of these days." The man who wrote the bible of computer science just said that. In a paper named after an AI. Paper: cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/paper…

Dinero.js v2.0.0 is out! 🚀 This is a complete rewrite: TypeScript native, tree-shakeable functions, compile-time currency safety, BigInt support, non-decimal currencies, and still zero dependencies. sarahdayan.com/blog/dinerojs…

Anthropic said no. OpenAI said how much.
