🚨🚨🚨 Last call to register for Boston Code Camp 40! Registration closes on Wednesday March 25 at 6 PM. For more information check our website: bostoncodecamp.com/CC40/info Click on the green "Attend" button to sign up!

You can register at bostoncodecamp.com - I hope to see you there!

Can't wait for Boston Code Camp next week! I'll show you how to run AI locally on anything from a Raspberry Pi to a 128GB workstation, how to run Claude Code and Github Copilot locally, how to access AI models from code and write agents that call MCP servers.

@abrakjamson Also noticed em dashes are becoming more popular

I've started noting whenever a human says, "You're absolutely right." Two in two days.

One of the coolest uses of @lmstudio and @AIatAMD is using LM Link to have a Framework Desktop be a remote inference server for a laptop, including something little like Framework Laptop 12. It feels native on the laptop, but gets the desktop’s performance.

You're debugging an LLM integration. Requests are getting rate limited. Token counts seem off. Something's consuming more than expected. You need detailed, analyzable data. Not real-time dashboards. A log you can grep through. Dev Proxy's OpenAIUsageDebuggingPlugin writes every LLM request's usage data to CSV: { "plugins": [ { "name": "OpenAIUsageDebuggingPlugin", "pluginPath": "~appFolder/plugins/DevProxy.Plugins.dll" } ] } Every request gets logged: - Timestamp - Status code - Prompt tokens, completion tokens, cached tokens - Remaining tokens and requests in rate limit window - Retry-after values when throttled time,status,prompt tokens,completion tokens,remaining tokens 2025-01-21T10:15:30Z,200,150,75,9850 2025-01-21T10:15:40Z,429,,,0 Open it in Excel. Analyze in Python. Find patterns. Identify the expensive prompts. Complements OpenAITelemetryPlugin: use telemetry for real-time monitoring, CSV for offline debugging. Which prompts are hitting rate limits? Which ones consume the most tokens? The data tells you. How do you debug unexpected LLM token consumption?

@ivproduced @sergio_noodles If you're open to running Windows or Linux, consider this option: frame.work/desktop?tab=ma… 128GB of unified memory, x64 instruction set, for about half the price. I'm having a great time with this!

@sergio_noodles 100% I always do this to myself get just what I need an end up going back and going balls to the wall smh

I want the $5k MacBook Pro. Problem is…as my momma would say I don’t have $5k MacBook Pro money

'We'll refactor after we ship' = We'll never refactor. 'We'll write tests later' = We'll never write tests. 'We'll document it when it's stable' = We'll never document it.

💡 Curious how Microsoft 365 Learning Pathways is built under the hood? Let @spdkp walk you through the architecture; GitHub content catalogs, multilingual JSON schema, #SPFx + React, tenant config, and the (cont) msft.it/l/6015Q52Gt

Everyone talks about MCP (Model Context Protocol)! But do you know what MCP is? Have a look to this short video and don’t miss the Copilot Dev Camp for more hands‑on insights: 👉 msft.it/6019QedWU #Microsoft365Dev #CopilotDevCamp #AI #Developers

Many thanks to Progress Telerik @telerik for their Silver sponsorship of Boston Code Camp 40! Their support helps us keep the conference free for all attendees, offering a full day of learning and networking to the New England developer community.

🚨 Registration is now open for Boston Code Camp, the legendary free developer's conference on March 28th in Burlington, MA. Check out the site for a full list of sessions an speakers. Click the green "Attend!" button to register! bostoncodecamp.com/CC40/info see you there! 🚨

New Copilot Dev Camp lab! 🚀 Learn how to add communication capabilities to your Custom Engine Agent using the Agent Framework + Microsoft Graph. Start building smarter agents 👉 msft.it/6018Q1QvY #Microsoft365Dev #CopilotDevCamp #MicrosoftGraph

I'm excited to announce that I'll be presenting "Look ma, no cloud: Developing with Local AI" at Boston Code Camp. I'll show you how to host your own AI models and use them to build agents. You'll even learn how to use local AI as a coding assistant! Hope to see you there!

💡 Want Copilot in your own app? Let @paolopia show how Copilot APIs (Retrieval, Chat, Search) can power custom UX, agents, and grounded answers with Microsoft 365 data; secured via Entra ID. 📺 Watch → msft.it/6013Qkiud
