I respect the shamelessness

Jensen Huang: "If that $500,000 engineer did not consume at least $250,000 worth of tokens, I am going to be deeply alarmed. This is no different than a chip designer who says 'I'm just going to use paper and pencil. I don't think I'm going to need any CAD tools.'"

@AviTheDev nope! they're experimental!! but they would work for base use cases(i am dog fooding it for my own use cases and they work fine)
But feel free to break it! And create issues on where it breaks :)

Are they both (Turbo API & PG) ready for prod?

Introducing TurboPG. A Zig-native Postgres client for Python. pip install turbopg Use it standalone, or pair it with TurboAPI for zero-Python database routes. HTTP request hits Zig, Zig queries Postgres, Zig writes JSON. Python never touches the data. 128k req/s on DB routes. ~100x faster than FastAPI + SQLAlchemy.

Genuinely thought this was a parody 🤣

This is CRAZY.
It turns out Jack Dorsey's Block $XYZ spent $68 million on a single party in September 2025, roughly the annual payroll for 200 employees at $340,000 each.
Then 5 months later, he laid off 4,000 people (40% of the company's workforce), citing AI and "intelligence tools" as a reason.
Many people are speculating the real reason is poor planning and overspending, not AI.

BREAKING: We just saw the first major layoff directly because of AI. Twitter founder Jack Dorsey laid off 4,000 people, 40% of the company’s headcount to go all in on AI and agentic workflows. After the announcement, Block stock $XYZ surged 23% in 60 minutes, adding nearly $6 billion to its market cap. Jack said what every CEO knows but won’t admit: “AI paired with smaller teams is enabling a new way of working. And that’s accelerating rapidly.” The new math after AI is brutal: 100 people + AI = 1,000 people

Its pretty dope to see how my hobby project ended up impacting thousands of lives. And best of all is that this is still the beginning 🔥

We* built the first ever Turing-complete Swahili programming language — Nuru. And we just secured a $40,000 contract to bring it to 5,000 learners in Swahili-speaking classrooms. And I know what you’re thinking: Why build a Swahili programming language?Aren’t there already a dozen “better” languages than Nuru could ever be? Yes. “You’re absolutely right!” Now buckle up and hear me out! As AI systems get stronger, the “how” is getting “cheaper” every year. Implementation details are being trivialized. The real advantage shifts to the “what”: knowing what to build, why it matters, and having systems understanding at a high level. The winners won’t be the people who can write the most syntax from memory, they’ll be the people with strong fundamentals and the confidence to build. That’s why we believe the programming language of the future is going to be the one you already speak.... For the millions of us from the so-called “3rd world countries”, that language is Swahili! When we started teksafari.org, one thing became obvious fast: integrating into public schools in Tanzania would be hard. Most technical learning is delivered in English, but for many young Tanzanians—especially outside big cities—English is a third language. We don’t really do excuses. And we couldn’t sit around waiting for policy to catch up to the urgency. So we built the Nuru Playground, on top of the Nuru language that @AviTheDev had been working on, so we could finally deliver our technical programs in Swahili-speaking classrooms without the translation tax. We have already reached hundreds of students with a couple schools on our waitlist.
