Hoy mi primera aplicación para IOS fue aceptada y publicada en el App Store.
Today my first IOS app was accepted and published on the App Store.
What a historic day!

Which AI models do developers actually use?
Benchmarks can't tell you. Usage can.
Introducing Rankings on TokenMaxxer: real tokens from real coding sessions

after 2 years in nyc, i've learned to optimize for one small thing: timing my walk so i get to the station right as the train pulls in.
so i built a tiny mac app for it.
introducing stand clear, a native menu bar app that finds your closest subway station and shows live arrivals for the lines you ride, straight from the mta's feeds.
free and open source, give it a try and send over feedback :)
Everyone thinks they’re the heaviest AI user on their team and company until they see the leaderboard
i had no idea how many tokens i burned this year, so i built a tool that tracks token spend across all my coding agents
introducing tokenmaxxer, your home for ai spend
- reads 17 coding tools and 74 models straight off your machine
- ranks you against every other dev on a global leaderboard
- syncs automatically all your usage
- your prompts and your code never leave your computer
find out how much you have burned!

9,533,721,323 tokens burned. $8.66K of AI usage. Across 5 AI coding tools and 26 models.
Printed out, your pages would stack 2.9 Burj Khalifas tall.
Track yours on TokenMaxxer 👇 tokenmaxxer.xyz/@ivansmb
there's now a global leaderboard that ranks developers by AI tokens burned
i built it. i'm not even top 10
tokenmaxxer tracks 17 coding tools and 74 models straight off your machine. your code never leaves your computer
i would like to see if anyone can make it to the top 3

6B tokens and counting, $6.21K of AI usage
s/o to @SYM1001 for coding tokenmaxxer.xyz
Give it a shot! Feedback is appreciated.

I've used 33 different AI models for coding in the last 12 months
Not on purpose. I just said yes to every new one and kept using the ones that got the job done
Then I actually measured all my usage:
Opus 4.8 — 54%
Fable 5 — 20%
Opus 5 — 10%
The other 30 models — 16%
22 of the 33 didn't even crack 1%
If new models come out this week, I'll try them too. But I'd bet I'll probably gravitate right back to Claude
i just parsed every AI token i've burned in the last months
3B tokens. $3,586. across claude code, codex, cursor & antigravity
92.6% of it was cache reads — the model re-reading context it already paid to write
actual code output: 0.66%
full breakdown:
cache reads 92.6%
cache writes 4.3%
input 2.4%
output 0.66% 👈 the actual code
also $1,327 of the total went into building the tool that told me this
i tokenmaxxed to build tokenmaxxer.xyz/
Im surprise no one is talking about this gem
