Coding 40h/week but your public GitHub graph is completely empty? @swyx.io as the guy who literally wrote the book on "learning in public", how do devs prove their worth when 90% of their actual startup work is locked in private repos? www.gitpulse.dev/profile/swyx...

@xgranade I'd suggest at least using 100 bytes to look great everywhere: https://www.swyx.io/css-100-bytes, Xess Classic is based on that: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Xe/Xess/refs/heads/master/classic/xess.css

we'll have #ElasticON SF next week. I'm especially excited to have convinced @swyx.io to join us for the closing keynote on "the year agents ate search" — let's see how much we can all agree or disagree here :D www.elastic.co/events/elast... (and we still have a couple of free slots available)

AI Engineer Summit recap Great conference! High powered legit speakers. Go if you have a chance I don't yet see the youtube videos, i imagine @swyx.io is still editing, should be here soon: www.youtube.com/@aiDotEngine... Big themes: * RL envs * AI coding bsky.app/profile/timk...

Anthropic has had a Head of Developer Relations role open for the last 4 months, despite offering $385-460k salary dx.tips/devrel-is-back This is my attempt to explain why, after kind of dying out last year, DevRel is So Back, thanks to prompting from @phillvdm.bsky.social and @pedramnavid.com
DevRel is -Unbelievably- Back
and we're not sure why

Host of Latent Space and AI engineering master @swyx.io is joining us at Sync Conf 2025. Tastemaker, product builder, and voice behind AI Engineering Summit.
Following on with more info for @swyx.io @mackuba.eu maintains sdk.blue The ATProto Touchers Discord discord.atprotocol.dev is great for all the newest launches & troubleshooting. Soon @slices.network will be a couple of clicks to make a new backend & aggregator for ATProto data.

Boris@bmann.ca · 10mo agoHey @swyx.io! Yeah, it's just a pile of tech talks, the conference & some events, and it's me and a handful of other folks from the #ATCommunityFund, not a developer hub! There are no paid devrel or ecosystem roles by anyone yet! Lots more community infra needed.

Interesting post about this from @swyx.io and crew: www.latent.space/p/why-mcp-won It seems like the next step up from llmstxt.org I think the usefulness really depends on if you want repeatable output from your LLM or if you use the LLM to build repeatable process (like terraform for config).

Fascinating to hear evolution of behavioural engineering in the context of generative AI models. Always useful to hear what @swyx.io is up to and their views. The Agent Reasoning Interface: o1/o3, Claude 3, ChatGPT Canvas, Tasks, and Operator —with Karina Nguyen of #OpenAI www.latent.space/p/karina

github.com/r002/r002.gi... PS. I'm also a huge fan of artifacts (Seth even blogged ab this today! (seths.blog/2025/01/the-...) For me, I ❤ leaving a "learning exhaust" (h/t: @swyx.io) of screenshots whenever I build things. Later, you can then look back on them all to see how far you've traveled.
2 pieces of content on the topic of LLM powered agents that I'd recommend: - The latest Latent Space episode by @swyx.io with @simon.fedi.simonwillison.net.ap.brid.gy - highly recommend! - The GoEX research paper. Late to the party on this one but the contents of it is more and more relevant today
@swyx.io pitched the "React distro" thesis a few years ago: www.swyx.io/react-distros I think it's a reasonable take / mindset. The issue is that the React team has effectively stopped supporting the way half the ecosystem uses React, docs/guidance-wise.

React knows which component instance it's rendering based on the current Fiber instance. That gets saved as a module-scoped variable in the hooks impl file, and the hook functions iterate through the list of hooks in a field on that Fiber. See @swyx.io 's "build hooks" talk: www.swyx.io/hooks
