I'm always interested in seeing innovative solutions in the cross-platform mobile space, and Valdi is a treat in that sense 🧑‍🍳 love the documentation plus it was a very well planned release, ton of stuff to dig into, and learn what makes it unique. 🔗 github.com/Snapchat/Valdi

oof this Cloudflare outage is really something uh 🫠

main disadvantage of using a voice-based approach to interacting with my AIs as someone who's not english mother tongue: the amount of miss-transcribed words 🫠 but hey that's also what's great about LLMs, they still understand what you meant even if it types Rektnativ 😅😅😅

who do I know who will be at jsnation or react summit? 👀

so happy to be at #RNLConf2025! So many friends from all over 🥰 And the venue?!? Its so cool! (…i had to take a pic of the ceiling)

ngl kind of hyped for #ReactNativeLondonConf tomorrow! Can't wait to see so many familiar faces 😍

new bio who this 👀 (yes, it really happened) (yes, it's a HUGE deal) (yes, since August) (YES, I'M DOING DOPE S*)

Node excitement 😉 Congrats to @marcoippolito.dev on making it official: type-stripping in Node 25 is now declared to be stable 🎉 You can run: node index.ts The capabilities have not changed since Node 24. This is purely a maturity indicator.

Today is not a big day because it's my first day without fever after what feels like a billion years (read: last wednesday) but because it's an important deadline 😎 Reaching it is a big deal. I'll share more (very) soon.

As someone involved in #oss and #javascript but never directly on Vue/Vite, that community always looked healthy and interesting - at times inspiring I'm looking forward to see how Vite+ project & its licensing approach will succeed 🍿 🔗voidzero.dev/posts/annou...

it's always such a relief to see that there are still creative and fun and silly projects hidden in the corners of the WWW - good stuff 🧑‍🍳 (if you have any that you super like, pls send them my way!) 🔗 50centadjustedforinflation.com

ahhh yes fellow people of culture always thinking about the roman empire too 🤝 jokes aside - this article about Signal’s post-quantum makeover is SUPER interesting. Did I understand everything at a first read? heck no. but well worth the time 🔗 arstechnica.com/security/20...

the fact that as little as 250 documents are enough to poison an LLM is 🤯🤯🤯 Security still need to figure out the right way around AIs, uh? 😅 not concerning at all 🔗 www.anthropic.com/research/sm...

Apple’s App Store gets a new web interface techcrunch.com/2025/11/03/a... And they promptly misconfigured so people could download the source and leak it to GitHub: github.com/rxliuli/apps...

ngl I've been asking this very question myself for quite some time. It's very, very hard to feel joy when using something this messy and inconsistent 🥲 🔗 blog.johnozbay.com/what-happen...

btw not a work thing but I just wanted to give a shoutout to R-Tools Technology for their Data Recovery Software 'cause thanks to it I managed to salvage a 5TB (!) external hard disk that literally none of the other softwares were able to recover 🫡 🔗 www.r-studio.com/data-recove...

add to the list of reasons to never accept homework in hiring pipelines 📝 (on a more serious note, HOLY S*** this is actually a surprising approach to try and hack someone - and with AI all around... YIKES) ...and perfectly spoOOoky 👻 for today 👻 🔗 blog.daviddodda.com/how-i-almos...

at the risk of sounding like one of those life-influencers, I think Eric Barker wrote another post well worth learning from 💎 🔗 bakadesuyo.com/2025/10/how...

Oh wow - given that the latest (early Oct) put the weekly active users in the range of the 800M, this means that 0.15% is over 1M... AI chat companies really need to be on top of their game around this great blog released by OpenAI about their efforts 🔗 openai.com/index/stren...

👋 Hello lovely Blueskyers! Do I (or you?) know any gothic novel fans (or even better, with links to the UK publishing industry)? A student I know is keen to ask research questions about British gothic novels by women authors over the years and their correlation with societal changes. And pls share!

see you there? 👀 can't wait to be back at a #reactnative conference after so long 🤩

fixed that for you

new project that keeps track of inflation with regards to our favorite artist, 50 cent: 50centadjustedforinflation.com

TIL of git format-patch and damn it's cool and so old school #opensource (an email!) 🔗 git-scm.com/docs/git-fo...

aaahhhh yes, the classic error warning error TGIF 🫠

New: The market for Counter-Strike skins fell $1.75 billion overnight -- that's 25%. Investors dumped money into the digital item market amid concerns about the S&P 500 and crypto. Then, last night, Valve pushed a market-breaking update to the game

ok i've tried to give #Codex another stab but I have to say, it super bothers me that it shows the "pre-pending" commands it runs to run the actual things that are relevant

"It's very clear that a lot of the new AI era is about dismantling the web's original design... a new Internet where there's no concept of consent for either users or those who create content and culture — everything is just raw materials, and all of us are fair game."

I think I mentioned this strategy already in the past, but it's good to see that there's more and more signalling that making your AI coding agent write notes outside of itself is an important way to make it effective 📝📝📝 🔗 www.anthropic.com/engineering...

did anyone figure out an MPC or something to get your coding agent to "see" what they work on? let's say I'm doing a website and I need to tweak a button animation/UX/UI - atm imho that's the weak link for coding agents. The day we can easily give them a feed of screenshots 📈📈

so, uhm - now that it's been a few weeks: are y'all people using the new OpenAI #Codex or are still on #ClaudeCode? I gave it a quick go some time ago but didn't find it much better/more useful than CC

always important to have something like Kurzgesagt go deeper into a topic and explain *well* what they found 💎 www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zf...

London is proud to host Japan's Grand Sumo Tournament this week - it's fantastic to see the the teams using our cycling infrastructure to get around.

WOAH Arduino is joining Qualcomm 🤯 I really hope that they will *really* retain their #opensource DNA 🔗 www.qualcomm.com/news/releas...

here's something I started doing lately "by reflex": if I work on something in a codebase, or I'm supporting a teammate in some feature but then I need to hand over the task... I literally send them at least one or two markdowns to feed to their local AI agent 📃 that's new 🧐

I missed this, but HelloFresh has also moved to full #reactnative - well, the way that all bigger/more complex apps are, so brownfield. Super interesting read: engineering.hellofresh.com/hellofreshs...

The #Anthropic's team content around #ClaudeCode is always a chance to learn something - this vid is a bit old but still very interesting that said, I don't get how people can "multi-Claude", I feel that the context switching would 😵‍💫 me www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAQ...

It's #WorldMentalHealthDay once again - and I can't stress it enough: take care of your #mentalhealth. We are living through unprecedented times that just keep on being more and more even just living can feel like a challenge don't give up 🔗 www.mentalhealth.org.uk/our-work/pu...

ICYMI: last week Amazon dropped one of the most 🤯 projects in the #reactnative space, SPECIFICALLY because of this: they have integrated *in the OS itself* common RN components and libs I'm so glad its out of NDA ahaha finallyyyy we can nerd about it 🔗 developer.amazon.com/apps-and-ga...

very interesting talk by @lunaleaps.bsky.social from the second day of react conf about RN threading and virtualizating lists, highly recommend watching

I've been travelling a lot these past few weeks on top of dealing with some quite intense situation and via my Oura ring I've been able to see my resilience 📉📉📉 ...which, on the other hand, made me able to be intentional in bringing it back up and see the results. lets 📈💪

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Sending good vibes to everyone at #reactConf, I hope that the event is awesome! (and pls lmk which talks are worth catching up to! I'm travelling to a different place this week so I'll probably miss everything about it 🙈)

I'm signed up for very few newsletters outside of tech stuff, and "Barking Up The Wrong Tree" is always a treat - highly highly rec 💎 🔗 bakadesuyo.com/2025/09/sca...

more of this please, everywhere all at once 🔗 www.technologyreview.com/2025/09/16/...

I've been using heavily #ClaudeCode for coding over the last month or so, I think I found my groove and approach to make it work consistently decently - here's a quick&dirty graph that shows my current flow: (ofc feedback super welcome 🙏)

kind of wild that #ClaudeCode is made with TS + React + Yoga 🤯 🔗 newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/how-claud...

Sooo... we're in 2025 and noone has solved E2E testing for #mobiledev on CI? 👀 If you know of any successful setups (= doesn't randomly break on CI) that it doesn't involve giga-custom infras, post it down here for every #reactnative (and #iOS, and #android) dev to learn from⬇️

for all the cracked react native devs, please come with with us 🥺
