If you look at a release like Astra I feel like you can only draw the conclusion that cool shit is happening. So far we haven't really slowed down with what these models do and I don't think it's going to stop right now. 13.5K views · 300 likes · 10 reposts · 9 replies 03 Sep 2026 @mitsuhiko Mandatory email confirmation for each sign-in is actually the worst 419 views · 3 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 03 Sep 2026 Sometimes things are unlaunched 9.1K views · 103 likes · 2 reposts · 6 replies 03 Sep 2026 @mitsuhiko the saddest part is i got like 4 google titan keys from google as part of some oss maintainer program, and they don't work with this openai thing because they're outdated and don't support whatever storage protocol they're using 😭 1.2K views · 2 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 Web components are in such a sorry state still. Now would be the moment for them to shine with all the agents wanting to build UI. 8.8K views · 66 likes · 4 reposts · 5 replies 03 Sep 2026 @mitsuhiko You can use 1p + Apple Passwords and avoid the hardware key altogether. 14.6K views · 50 likes · 1 reposts · 9 replies 03 Sep 2026 I will say the pairing of mandatory passkey + yubikey as second factor is hilarious. 35.3K views · 135 likes · 2 reposts · 17 replies 03 Sep 2026 BTW. I'm in no way completely surprised about this. In fact, that general topic has been part of my talk at PyAI this year: https://t.co/ODOsAuLmaN 15.9K views · 29 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 04 Jul 2026 @mitsuhiko God I can feel the frustration during debugging in every line of the blog 1K views · 15 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 04 Jul 2026 Also thanks @_can1357 that gave me some more input that pushed me down that rabbit hole. 14K views · 31 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 04 Jul 2026 I had some vibes that Opus 4.8 was performing worse than older ones for some of uses that are off distribution and now I have the receipts. Latest Opus/Sonnet are causing tool invocation failures on Pi's edit tool when older ones did not! I wrote about it. https://t.co/96Qd8zfdVc 324.6K views · 836 likes · 72 reposts · 54 replies 04 Jul 2026
