Got a chance to try Aider with gemini-2.5-pro-exp-03-25 this weekend - very impressed! This is the first time I've been able to use Gemini models successfully to vibe-code a project from scratch (with some help from grok as PM). Kudos to the Google team. Need. More. Quota. :-)

🎉 Big milestone alert! 📷Our Hughes Hallucination Detection Model (HHEM) just hit 2 MILLION downloads on @huggingface! Launched last Nov, we hit 1M downloads 3 weeks ago, and now we hit 2M downloads. This recent acceleration is a clear leading indicator that the #RAG AI Assistants/Agents market is maturing and moving into more production use cases where accuracy is paramount. Thank you to our amazing community for making this possible! 📷bit.ly/4h1f8sy 📷 #NLP #HallucinationDetection #MachineLearning #RAG

I recently changed role at Slack, to focus on the HHVM runtime that executes so much of our product code. This is the first time I’ve worked primarily on a compiler and VM, so had to get myself up to speed. Here are some fantastic resources that have helped me do so *quickly*.

Excited to announce Stemma's launch today. It's been 3 years since Lyft's data catalog - Amundsen was born. It's enabled Lyft and many others like Instacart, Square & Brex to be more effective at data-driven decision making. We are excited to bring the same to the broader market.
