I wanted to say a huge thank you to the @GitHub and the GitHub Universe team. They do a good job and they care. I have a good BS detector. Obviously they invite people to win them over (the swag was amazing). I got a good amount of time to chat with @Vlad_GitHub and @kdaigle and I was really impressed with their passion. I had time to ask questions and my question was typically, "hey you guys kinda suck." Obviously that's nonproductive, but they gave me the time of day and listened. I want GitHub to succeed, I want everyone too. They have an extremely complicated business and they straddle industries that are diametrically opposed culturally. I'm still gonna complain nonstop about Copilot (and CI in general just ruins my day), but these guys aren't the enemy.

1/ Esta mañana me dio por pensar cuánto me costaría montar una app para monitorizar los trenes de Renfe. Resulta que la posición GPS de cada tren es pública. 3-4 horas después, estaba funcionando 👇

I built a notes app inspired by the 80s, when software felt simple and snappy. It launches in 2.6ms. I've taken notes for 10+ years, first in VS Code, then Obsidian. Sometimes I just want to jot down a thought and get back to work. Here's Noted: noted.computer 🧵

Viendo lo viral que se hizo ayer mi tweet donde decía que creo que en el cine de los 90 estaba prohíbido los finales no felices, he analizado todas las series y películas más populares en EEUU y España desde los 80s hasta ahora y mi intuición no sólo era correcta, es que la caída es mucho más gorda de lo que yo me esperaba... PERO, sólo en las series, no en el cine! En las series de los 90, casi la mitad te daban mucha esperanza en la humanidad, sus personajes quedaban en paz, en armonía y queridos por su familia, sus amigos, su comunidad, su país... Hoy día no llegan al 10% y la tendencia de finales cínicos, sociedades distópicas y tristes sigue en aumento sin parar!! 🧵 Hilo con lo que creo que es el análisis de datos más fascinante e interesante que he hecho en mi vida 👇

Coming soon to the GitHub Copilot desktop app: editable diffs!! ✏️ Agent got you most of the way there? Make those last tweaks directly in the diff, right where you’re reviewing the changes. Co-authored with @lichinlin!

🌌 GPT-6 Astra from @OpenAIDevs is now generally available in GitHub Copilot. This new model is designed for long-horizon, autonomous coding and agentic tasks. Our internal testing shows it plans and validates as it goes, batches diagnosis with verification, and independently confirms its results before declaring a task done. That translated into stronger performance on extensive coding jobs with fewer steps than prior OpenAI models. Try it out in the GitHub Copilot app, CLI, or @code. 🚀 github.blog/changelog/2026-0…

I've always believed video games are the greatest form of art… and few things excite me more than building tools for those who make. I'm joining @XBOX to level up developer + creator tools with studios. Grateful to be working with @asha_shar again. Let's cook! 💚

Cada trimestre, la misma pesadilla: buscar facturas de proveedores en el mail, entrar en 10 plataformas manualmente que no lo envían, revisar los modelos 303/359/111, rectificativas, conciliaciones... En TheirStack lo hemos automatizado TODO con IA + Odoo 🔥 👇
