We think we just found the best file transfer tool out there. It's called croc, it's free, open-source, and beats AirDrop, WeTransfer, and scp at their own game. Full breakdown and demo in our latest video.

Google's new LiteRT.js runs AI models directly in the browser, no server needed. We tested it by building a real-time motion capture demo and benchmarked CPU vs WebGPU performance ourselves.

PostgreSQL was rebuilt in Rust, and it already passes all 46,066 official regression queries. psql works, Postgres 18.3 data dirs boot, and threads could reshape performance. Watch the breakdown ⬇️

Webhooks are broken. Vendors DDoS you without meaning to, and nobody agrees on how to handle failures. @alexbouchardd from @Hookdeck explains why he's betting on "event gateways" to fix it. New episode of the Better Stack Podcast is live.

One dev ran Grok's CLI in his home directory. It uploaded everything. SSH keys, password manager, photos. Turns out, it uploaded your whole repo, even if it didnt need to read the files... thats why its opensource now 😅

PocketBase is your entire backend — database, auth, realtime, file storage — as a single file you can run yourself.

We test how FluidVoice compares with Wispr Flow, Superwhisper, and Apple's built-in Mac dictation, including its local voice-to-text performance, privacy benefits, smart punctuation and formatting. You'll also see how FluidVoice uses local AI models such as Parakeet and Fluid

I built the same app in Electron, Tauri, Electrobun and Deno Desktop... and there's one clear winner.

Epic Games built Lore: open-source version control for huge game assets. We see it against Git, Git LFS, and Perforce—and commit a 100MB file locally.

pg_durable puts crash-proof durable workflows right inside Postgres. You can ditch the queue, the worker, and the Temporal cluster ⬇️

Webhooks are the gateway drug to event-driven architecture. One founder got so fed up with broken webhooks breaking the e-commerce business that he built Hookdeck out of pure frustration. Here's the origin story.

@BetterStackHQ great benchmark 🔥 @TauriApps, ElectroBun, @deno_land Desktop vs @electronjs, same screen recorder built 4x. youtube.com/watch?v=ktkDGQ… 1) Repos for the 4 builds would be awesome 2) Comments are full of requests for Wails (Go), Dioxus (Rust), Flutter (Dart).

So @Kimi_Moonshot just dropped Kimi K3. 2.8 trillion parameters, 1 million token context, and third-party benchmarks put it 0.3 points behind Claude Fable 5 on coding. Open models have nearly caught up...

Until now, your programming language was a one-way decision. Bun just proved you can undo it. 11 days to move from Zig to Rust in 6,500 commits, all with Fable 5. The Zig founder was not impressed... 🍿
