Forget retraining — Claude now loads expertise on demand. Each “Skill” is a folder of scripts, code & docs it pulls in only when relevant. Composable, portable, efficient — a new pattern for model specialization. www.anthropic.com/news/skills #AIInfrastructure

🔐 Authentication struggles? AI curiosity? Career questions? Join us Oct 28 for talks on securing React apps (SSO, MFA, OIDC), AI innovation, and engineering leadership. Food included. All levels welcome! 👉 www.meetup.com/react-atl/ev... #ReactATL #ATLTech #JavaScript #WebDev

Every night I check our sponsor list and whisper your company name three times. It hasn't worked yet but I feel it getting closer. Don't make me do the full ritual. Please. https://tinyurl.com/52uc3xkk

In case it's useful to anyone else, here is a .zshrc function to clean up node_modules and build folders. It works from a parent directory with any number of folders in between. gist.github.com/martinrojas/... #dev

Neural nets aren’t magic—they’re just stacks of simple units. This short demo uses switches to show how a perceptron (AI’s basic neuron) decides outputs. Great intro to how AI learns: youtu.be/l-9ALe3U-Fg?... #NeuralNetworks #AI

Redis 8 just leveled up: semantic caching that understands meaning—not literal keys. Vector Sets + LangCache ditch redundant LLM calls, and Flex scales affordably via SSD. Your budget will thank you. newsletter.systemdesignclassroom.com/p/every-repe...

Prompt injection isn’t just in chat windows anymore. Researchers hid commands in a Google Calendar invite—when Gemini summarized the week, it turned off smart home lights. Details → www.wired.com/story/google... #AIsecurity

Chatted with @martinrojas.dev, UI Architect at PlayOn Sports & @reactatl.dev Organizer, about the tech meetup scene, leveraging AI to enhance sports broadcasting, AI Guilds (not Dungeons & Dragons!), Micro frontends, React, & more on @redmonk.com's MonkCast redmonk.com/blog/2025/08...

Shape Copilot to your workflow. Use the Awesome-Copilot repo’s custom instructions, reusable prompts, and chat modes to get AI suggestions that follow your team’s style—and even guide agent-mode tasks. Give it structure → github.com/github/awesome-copilot

Meta’s AI rules: approved by many, but still let bots have ‘sensual’ chats with kids and give false medical advice. 🤯 Who signed off on this? www.reuters.com/investigates... #AI #Ethics #Safety #TechNews #ArtificialIntelligence

Grok has “Unhinged Mode,” no safety framework, and vibes like it skipped QA and ethics class. Until xAI proves it can adult, treat Grok like beta software with a flamethrower. Pause all POCs. Safety first. #ResponsibleAI #xAI #TechEthics #MLOps 🔗 techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/x...

I think Googles Material 3 is the first of a wave of new design systems. The Anti-AI designs system. The way its a little off more "human" is so an AI or bad designer will feel wrong. Its just part of the evolution to distinguish premium from generic

Atlanta Tech Starter Pack! I know there are more out there so tag people and I’ll add them. go.bsky.app/7uHErZ6

With @firefox.com abandoning their stance on data privacy. I am wondering what everyone else is doing? What is the other option? Sad to be having to roll off Mozilla Relay or can Mozilla still be trusted? Are there any options?

Yup. This is how you frame it. gizmodo.com/googles-serg...

Post on a Reddit thread about which library or framework to use for React, and it made me consider what my answer will be in 2025. www.nextsteps.dev/posts/react-.... #reactjs #webdev

Amazing turn out for the first event of the year. Great work with our partner AtlantaJS, Refctr, Modern Web, and VueATL

There is one thing that has really bothered me about the #TikTok Ban. Is that apparently any app without any explicit permission is able to read a lot of the SIM card data. What reason is there for this data to be so open?

Bill Gates recommends *The Coming Wave* by Mustafa Suleyman—a must-read on navigating the growing power of AI and biotech. It warns of 3 key risks: economic disruption, control issues, and bad actors. The call? We need smarter containment strategies. 👉 https://buff.ly/4h1NLxG #AI #TechLeadership

Working in large codebases is a skill—and a mindset. 🚀 - Consistency > Cleanliness: Prioritize existing patterns over perfection. - Delete code carefully: Less is often more. - Legacy systems aren't glamorous, but they pay the bills—and mastering them is real engineering.

OpenAI's o3 is fascinating for its innovative problem-solving using a "Monte Carlo Search function." It makes thousands of calls to its language models to select the best responses, similar to Doctor Strange exploring possibilities for the best outcome. It's an explanation of the cost. #ai #chatGPT
