"I also get some programmers are eager to tune it out. The hype drones on, the fantastical claims are still far off, and there's uncertainty where this leaves the profession. But that's not reason to miss out on this incredible moment in human history!" world.hey.com/dhh/promoting-…

Lots of conflicting takes about gpt-oss (yay open-source in the spotlight)!
We’re powering the official @openai demo gpt-oss.com with HF inference providers thanks to @FireworksAI_HQ, @cerebras, @GroqInc and @togethercompute so we have a front-row seat of what’s happening.
Something to remember: inference for new frontier open models isn’t easy, especially with a new format like harmony and the volume of interest that gpt-oss is getting out of the gate.
Early spikes can temporarily affect quality, accuracy, and overall "vibes," particularly just 24 hours post-release when providers are racing against the clock with barely any sleep!
Some advice to avoid forming the wrong opinions:
- If you care about getting vibes as fast as possible, use a hosted setup that gives you a diversity of providers like HF inference providers (huggingface.co/docs/inferenc…) and follow official standard guides (huggingface.co/blog/welcome-…)
- If you can, try it on your own hardware from the HF model pages (huggingface.co/openai) which are usually good sources of truth with transformers and vLLM (keep in mind that you can make mistakes in generation there too)
- Chill and take X hot takes with a grain of salt. Even if the first days can be confusing, the power of open-source is that there’s no cheating so we’ll uncover all the strengths and limitations of these models progressively!
Personally, I think this is a landmark release by the @OpenAI team, the kind we will remember in 10 years because of its implications. Can’t wait to see what the future holds 🚀🚀🚀

Announcing fff.nvim (and standalone fff cli): the file picker you've been waiting all this years.
- typo resistant SIMD optimized fuzzy search
- standalone native binary for file access that is aware of modification/access times
- git status awareness using ABI
- good UX

🚀 Ready to deploy your own Open Agent Platform (OAP) instance?
In our latest video, we show you how to self-host OAP in production—no managed instance required.
OAP is an open-source, no-code platform for building, prototyping, and deploying intelligent agents. With its intuitive web UI, you can:
🔧 Set up Tools and Supervisor agents out of the box
🧠 Plug in your own RAG server for domain-specific knowledge
🔌 Connect to your own MCP server to extend agent capabilities
🤖 Build and manage custom agents—all in the browser
Whether you’re a developer, product manager, or analyst, OAP gives you a full-stack agent platform, powered by LangGraph, with minimal setup.
