i have been experimenting with coding agents in collaborative swarms, configurations that are less orchestrated, and more self-organizing.

Great day for caching today: @nextjs: just use ”use cache” to handle all sorts of caching and pre-rendering. @sanity_io : no need to cache, it’s live by default.
Replying to @sanity_io
@sanity_io has been suspiciously quiet lately, I got a feeling “use cache” is not the only banger at @nextjs conf today…

Not only will this party be a great time, it's also minutes away from 3 of the best burrito spots in the city. What else could you ask for?

We have two great talks lined up for you! @esthor will discuss how to *actually* write once and deploy React everywhere, presenting a multi-platform UI architecture. @kmelve will talk about React Server Components and how to use them to manage live content that scales.

One of the things I’m most proud of with React Compiler is the design of the HIR. For compiler nerds, it’s a mix of low-level CFG with high-level semantics, allowing us to do precise low-level analysis while producing compact, high-level output.

It's a privilege to be working with the grown ups in the room when it comes to AI tools. @svale's guide to authoring with LLM's is actionable and non-hyperbolic. Can't wait for you to see [REDACTED] next week on May 8th 😅 sanity.io/blog/co-creating-w…

What’s inside Apple’s $129 Thunderbolt cable? We CT scanned one to find out, and compared it to some cheaper cables… 🧵

We think AI will take our jobs. That is… the part of our jobs that we find tedious and tiresome. With Sanity AI Assist, you can reduce the content burdens of your team and let them offload work with simple instructions in plain language. sanity.io/blog/sanity-ai-ass…

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.) It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public. 🧵

This is cool! Spent my lunch break making a little CLI that tells you how many of those you (or someone else) is a maintainer of: github.com/rexxars/npm-high-… npx npm-high-impact-cli wooorm > wooorm is the maintainer of 122 of the top 6039 high-impact packages on npm No pressure! 😅

Did you know that we have an Instagram account where we post normie style “high quality” content? (instead of Hugh mostly trolling his friends from our company Twitter account) For example, here is great content about why we love @sanity_io instagram.com/p/Cicu0AguPuR/…
