Hello everyone! The long-awaited TypeScript 7 was finally released the other day. And the new features it brings are truly astonishing. Several months ago I already wrote an article on this topic, but today I would like to write again about this event in programming. Well, let's get started! First o

HTTP Just Got Its First New Method in 20 Years. Here's Why You Should Care.

If you have ever written this, this article is for you: // a "search" that is actually a POST axios.post('/api/search', { category: 'shoes', maxPrice: 100 }) Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode Or the vanilla version: fetch('/api/search', { method: 'POST', body:

Use Fable 5 where it pays for itself

Claude Fable 5 is the model I reach for in Claude Code when a task is ambiguous, long-running, or full of tradeoffs — planning across steps, untangling a messy goal, weighing a design choice, keeping a long session pointed in the right direction. It's genuinely good at the hard parts. Which is exact

GLM 5.2 isn't free: not even my US$4,000 Spark can run it

GLM 5.2 is open source and free to download. Running it is another story. At best it needs around 240 GB of memory, and that's only in its most compressed version. I have a US$4,000 DGX Spark dedicated to this, with 128 GB, and it doesn't have enough to even start. This isn't opinion, it's arithmeti

The new HTTP method : QUERY

You work with REST APIs? You know GET, POST, PUT, DELETE... But did you know that a new HTTP method was standardized in June 2026? It's called QUERY and it solves a problem developers have been working around for 16 years. It's the first new standard HTTP method since PATCH (2010). Yes, you read th

Ponytail: The AI Coding Skill Taking GitHub by Storm — And the One Question Nobody's Answered Yet

If you've been anywhere near GitHub or the AI coding community in the last two weeks, you've probably seen the name Ponytail pop up. It hit ~44,000 stars in under 9 days, trended #2 on GitHub, got cited by Chinese tech press, and sparked full-blown debates on Hacker News and Reddit. So what is it? I

7 New JavaScript Features (And 2 I'm Still Waiting For)

Remember how I promised you (or rather myself) two weeks ago that from now on I'd only write light, easy posts? Well… I broke that promise 😅 Last week I published a huge article about one of the least sexy topics imaginable: legacy applications. Somehow, despite that, the DEV editorial team liked i

Stop Making Your AI Coding Agent Grep Your Whole Repo — Try codebase-memory-mcp

If you use an AI coding agent — Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Zed, Aider, whatever — you've probably watched it burn through tens of thousands of tokens just trying to figure out who calls a function or where a route is defined. It greps, it reads files, it greps again, it reads more f

Building an agentic PR reviewer with Antigravity SDK

As announced in this blog post on June 18, 2026, Gemini CLI and Gemini Code Assist IDE extensions will stop serving requests for Google AI Pro and Ultra, as well as those using it free of charge using Gemini Code Assist for individuals. Google is unifying its AI terminal tools by transitioning the c

The most popular AI coding skills right now

Introduction It's crazy to me that some GitHub repos, that were just created in the last year, have more stars then some of the most popular programming frameworks out there. At the time of writing, Superpowers, is around 226,000, ahead of the Vue repo and way ahead of Next.js. A separate repo bas

Run GLM-5.2 Locally: The Open Model Nobody Can Ban

On June 9, Anthropic shipped Claude Fable 5 — the most capable coding model the industry had ever seen. Three days later, the U.S. government ordered it offline for every user on Earth. No warning. No transition period. One directive, and the frontier vanished overnight. 📖 Read the full version wit

My daughter asked if developers used to write code by hand, but it was the follow-up question tha...

My daughter, who's 11, has been doing some vibe coding. The other day she looked over my shoulder at my IDE and asked: "Dad, was there ever a time when a developer had to write each one of those characters by hand?" "Yes. Twelve months ago." "But... how did you know what to write?" Which was a weir

Ollama Cloud Free vs Pro — Usage Limits, Pricing & What You Actually Get (2026)

Originally published on DevToolHub, where I keep this guide updated every time Ollama revises its limits. Ollama Cloud is one of the most searched topics in the local AI space right now — and the number one question is always the same: what do you actually get on the free tier, and is Pro worth payi

Headroom: Cut Your LLM Token Usage by Up to 95% Without Changing Your Answers

If you're building AI agents or running LLM pipelines in production, you already know the pain: tool outputs, logs, RAG chunks, and conversation history pile up fast. Before you know it, you're burning through tokens at a rate that makes your billing dashboard uncomfortable to look at. Headroom is a

PewDiePie built an open-source AI workspace, and the point is bigger than the hype

PewDiePie launching an open-source AI project sounds like one of those internet headlines you have to read twice. But it is real. Felix Kjellberg, better known as PewDiePie, has released a project called Odysseus through the GitHub account pewdiepie-archdaemon. The repo describes it as a self-hosted

MarkItDown: Microsoft's Tool for Converting Almost Anything to Markdown

If you've been building LLM-powered applications, you've likely run into the same problem: your data lives in PDFs, Word documents, Excel sheets, and PowerPoint decks — but your AI pipeline expects clean text. Copy-pasting doesn't scale, and most conversion tools either strip too much structure or p

Free Model Providers to Use with Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent by NousResearch is an open-source AI agent that does something most frameworks do not: it learns from experience. It creates skills during use, refines its memory across sessions, and supports parallel subagents and a built-in cron scheduler. You can run it on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, o

Using Google's New AI Command-Line Assistant: Antigravity CLI (agy) and YOLO's No-Confirmation Mode

With generative AI entering daily development, the AI assistant in the terminal has also ushered in an epic update! If you are a loyal supporter of the original Gemini CLI, you may already know that this tool will be officially retired on June 18, 2026. Taking over the torch of this era is Google's

cmux: The Native macOS Terminal Built for Running AI Coding Agents in Parallel

If you have ever run three Claude Code sessions at the same time in a stock terminal, you know the pain. Notifications are generic ("Claude is waiting for your input" — every single time), tab titles blur together, and there is no good way to tell which agent needs you without clicking into each pan

Antigravity CLI: A Hands-On Guide to Google's Terminal Coding Agent

The AI coding agent space has been reshuffling fast. Anthropic has Claude Code, OpenAI has Codex CLI, xAI has Grok CLI, and now Google has retired Gemini CLI and replaced it with something bigger: Antigravity CLI, a Go-based terminal agent that shares its engine with the Antigravity 2.0 desktop appl

Open Source Toolkit for Building AI Agents in 2026

It used to take a lot of effort to get your first PR merged in open source. Now you can ship something real in a weekend thanks to coding agents like Claude Code. But that also means the noise went way up. I saw the wave of openclaw repos a while back but the ratio of hype to actual maintenance is q

This post was originally published on my Substack publication as I Tested 6 AI Plans to Find What $5, $10 and $20 Get You. A little while ago, I built a multi-step workflow in Hermes to generate a ten-page report that would get stronger each time it passed through the document. It checked the latest
