Two months in. On a plane. ✈️ Hugh Durkin built a brand-aligned partner page mid-Atlantic using Netlify Agent Runners. No code. ~15 prompts. Async tasks finished on bad Wi-Fi. Nearly 100 partners pre-registered since launch.
hot take: if your class has no mutable fields and no constructor args, it's not a class. it's a namespace wearing a trench coat pretending to be an object. convert it to a module a pure function and move on. 
We will work in the open as we develop the Open Warehouse Architecture and the broader Postgres + Analytics vision

converted 3 classes to pure functions. no this, no new, no constructor, no state. just data in, data out. turns out the classes were already stateless - they were just cosplaying as OOP. 
added another one to the "nature of the job" collection:

full collection:
petemillspaugh.com/the-nature-of-the-job deleted every else from an entire module today. no else, no switch, just if guards and early returns. code reads top to bottom now like a checklist not a maze. your codebase mostly doesn't need else, you just think it does. 
i hope this is not subtweeting my prs 😂
Claude Sonnet 4.6 is now available in Netlify AI Gateway and Agent Runners.
If you’re using the Anthropic SDK, switch to claude-sonnet-4-6 and go.

Didn't try out Rolldown yet?
You should as it entered RC recently and is 10-30x faster while being compatible with Rollup's excellent API.
rolldown.rs If you're a library author adding `@__NO_SIDE_EFFECTS__` to your code, know that your users will only see the full benefit with a bundler that understands it before splitting.
This matters for libraries like shadcn, Radix, or any component library using the annotation. Your route-level bundles can actually get smaller from it!
But @rolldown.rs handles this. It tracks which functions are marked `@__NO_SIDE_EFFECTS__` across your entire app. When it sees a call to one of those function, even from a different file, it knows the call can be safely dropped if the result is unused. If your bundler only checks the annotation during minification, it's too late The minifier only sees one file at a time Which means it sees the call to the function but has no idea that this function was marked as side-effect-free before 🚨 The annotation does nothing exactly where it matters most!
Most apps use code splitting: Your code gets split into multiple files (chunks) to load less unnecessary JavaScript. When that happens, the annotated function might end up in one file and the call to it in another.
Did you know about the `/*@__NO_SIDE_EFFECTS__*/` annotation? It tells bundlers that a function has no side effects so every call to it can be tree-shaken if the result is unused. Most bundlers and minifiers support it today. But there's a nuance most people miss 👇
Clip from our internal showcase: Sahn Kim-Kuo took a prospect call recording → fed it into Claude → used Netlify Agent Runners + brand guidelines → built a custom webpage follow-up.
First one took ~6 hours. Now it’s a ~30 min rebrandable template.

"Vibe coding" isn't a meme. It's how people are actually shipping now.
Describe what you want. AI writes the code. You iterate, deploy, and learn along the way. Here's the full breakdown of what it is and where it breaks down.

Coming in tomorrow's release: granular per-tool permission settings for Zed's Agent. Configure regex patterns for any tool to always allow, deny, or ask. Your agent. Your rules.
this whole discussion is about vibes, the initial question is why people associate ai with crypto and don't like it, that's the thing we're talking about, that is the topic
when people get laid off from their jobs and the employer states "it's partly because of ai" the people getting laid off are going to blame ai because their employer blamed ai, there is no need for 3D chess here
my partner's electric bill has gone up 250% and two friends have been laid off, yes
for crypto, lots and lots of people losing money, especially middle class people and Black people were the ones who suffered from crypto scams. for ai, people losing work, bosses demanding more, and right now, paying higher electricity bills. that has been extremely polarizing.
