  • Is Open Source Software Infrastructure?
    GitHub is advocating for a European Union Sovereign Tech Fund to help pay the open source software developers building and maintaining software relied upon by economies and societies just like any other necessary infrastructure like roads and bridges.Apple gets called out by the Open Web Advocacy group saying its technical rules and restrictions are blocking other browser vendors from successfully offering their own search engines to iOS users in the EU.Last episode we talked about Amazon’s new AI coding editor Kiro, and this week, we learned about a feature called Agent Hooks which let users write automation tools that agents can use within the IDE to do predefined actions like maintaining code quality, checking for security vulnerabilities, standardizing and enforcing team processes, and more. Think of it like pre-commit hooks but with AI behind them!Timestamps:0:51 - GitHub is advocating for an EU tech fund9:21 - An update on non-WebKit browsers on iOS15:30 - Kiro’s agent hooks26:28 - Kilo Code28:35 - eslint-config-prettier got hacked33:15 - @media(hover: hover)36:05 - What’s making us happyLinks:Paige - GitHub is advocating for an EU Sovereign Tech FundJack - Kiro’s Agent HooksTJ - An update on non-WebKit browsers on iOSKilo Code - open source AI agent VS Code extension (not to be confused with the Kiro fork)Popular npm package eslint-config-prettier got hacked@media(hover:hover)Paige - Relax Meditation appJack - Physical books like the Annihilation seriesTJ - Apple Watch series 10Thanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

  • Windsurf’s 72-Hour Power Shuffle
    There are so many headlines about AI IDE Windsurf as of late, but we’ll try to catch you up. First, OpenAI wanted to buy Windsurf for $3B, but the deal fell through due to Microsoft. Next, Google hired Windsurf’s top execs and researchers to work on its AI products, but didn’t buy the Windsurf IDE, for $2.4B. Then, Cognition bought the remainder of Windsurf’s IP (and its staff) to integrate into its own products like Devin. And did we mention this all happened in the span of 72 hours?Amazon released its own AI-powered IDE called Kiro, and it claims it will bring structure to vibe-coding with "specs" to appeal to the enterprise companies. Kiro transforms prompts into structured specifications, technical designs, and implementation plans complete with testing.Next.js 15.4 debuted with a few notable highlights like 100% integration test compatibility for its new Turbopack bundler, and an experimental feature flag called `browserDebugInfoInTerminal` that will forward browser console output to the local terminal so CLI coding agents and AI IDEs like Cursor can see (and fix) client side errors. That sounds super useful.Timestamps:1:07 - Windsurf drama explained11:28 - Amazon’s new Kiro editor26:29 - Next 15.433:33 - Figma’s new glass effect39:19 - Lee Robinson leaves Vercel41:09 - What’s making us happyLinks:Paige - Next.js 15.4, including `browserDebugInfoInTerminal` flag for AI agentsJack - Kiro AI IDE for spec-driven developmentTJ - OpenAI’s Windsurf deal falls through - and Windsurf’s CEO is going to GoogleLee Robinson leaves Vercel after 5 yearsFigma has Glass EffectPaige - The Will of the Many novelJack - Ninja Single Serve coffee maker and SF Bay Coffee compostable K-cupsTJ - Tabletop shuffleboardThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

  • Vercel Acquires Nuxt and Nitro
    Tech companies continue the acquisition spree of the summer when Vercel announces it’s hired the creators of NuxtLabs, the folks who build metaframework Nuxt and server runtime Nitro.Figma returns to the newscycle with the introduction of its Dev Mode MCP server. This server allows agentic coding tools to pull in design context directly from Figma designs. Think: getting code, image, or variable context for a specific design selection or even porting over Figma designs directly into a code base for use.The AI browser race heats up as both OpenAI and Perplexity make news with announcements and early access for their own AI-powered web browsers. Details are limited but both companies are putting their AI search engines front and center to try and steal some Google Chrome’s market share.In this week’s Lightning News, there’s a new framework for building and shipping MCP applications called Xmcp. Focused on developer experience, Xmcp claims you can bootstrap an MCP server from scratch or plug it into an existing Next.js or Express app with one simple command. Finally, the Fire Starters section is back this week with the debut of CSS conditional if() statements in Chrome v137. Out of the box, if() works with style(), media(), and support() queries, and unlocks things like state-based styling with very straightforward syntax that uses a series of condition-value pairs, and even allows for an else statement at the end.Timestamps:1:13 - Vercel acquires NuxtLabs5:54 - Figma releases an MCP Server13:41 - OpenAI and Perplexity announce browsers26:08 - Xmcp framework29:06 - CSS conditions with if()33:05 - What’s making us happyLinks:Paige - NuxtLabs joins VercelJack - Figma Dev Mode MCP server TJ - Upcoming web browsers from OpenAI and Perplexity. Xmcp framework for building MCP applicationsCSS conditionals with if() statementsPaige - Somebody Feed Phil TV seriesTJ - MurderbotThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

  • Cloudflare Drops the Hammer on AI Crawlers
    The big tech company conferences continued this summer with Vercel hosting Vercel Ship 2025. As you’d expect there was lots of talk about AI and Vercel’s AI Cloud: tools, infrastructure, and platform enhancements to build AI agents and help AI agents use Vercel.On July 1, hosting platform Cloudflare declared Content Independence Day, and changed its settings to block AI crawlers by default unless they pay creators for their content. While we absolutely support this move, Cloudflare’s future vision of a marketplace where content creators and AI companies come together and compensation is based on how much content “furthers knowledge” seems idealistic, but we’ll have to wait and see.Serverless Postgres database company Neon has a new product called Neon Launchpad that can create an instant Neon database with zero configuration or account creation. Users get an automatically generated connection string, 72 hours to claim a new database, and even automatic database seeding with SQL scripts for schema and data initialization.Timestamps:2:13 - Vercel Ship event updates7:49 - Cloudfare declares content independence day16:12 - Neon Launchpad20:03 - Figma IPO22:24 - Deno v.

  • Battle of the AI CLIs: Jack Tests Them All
    The field of AI coding agent CLIs is crowded and getting more so by the day, and our co-host Jack has tried them all so you don’t have to. The big four are: OpenAI’s Codex, Anthropic’s Claude Code, Google’s Gemini Code, and Amazon Q, along with some lesser known CLIs like AmpCode, OpenCode, and (the already shut down) Anon Kode. After trying everything, Jack says Anthropic’s Sonnet models and Claude Code are still the best.Google’s quietly been working on new LLM-powered web APIs that rely on Google’s Gemini Nano model to power browser features like language detection and translation, and writing and proofreading, and Mozilla is concerned devs will create apps based on Gemini’s behavior.Less than two months after Figma’s big Config conference, it shared it's acquired OS headless CMS Payload. Continuing the effort to make Figma a central hub for digital product creation, Figma’s adding a CMS to the mix so marketers and designers can more easily update website content as needed.Timestamps:1:01 - Jack’s AI tool roundup10:34 - Mozilla’s concerns about Google building AI into Chrome19:16 - Figma buys Payload24:22 - Firefox gets vertical tabs27:15 - Jack’s macOS 26 experiment goes wrong30:36 - Anthropic destroys millions of print books38:06 - What’s making us happyLinks:Paige - Figma buys CMS PayloadJack - State of the AI CLIs: Codex, OpenCode, AmpCode, Gemini Code, Claude Code, Amazon QTJ - Mozilla’s concerns about Google building AI into ChromeLightning News:Firefox v140Jack's MacOS 26 upgrade gone wrongAnthropic destroyed millions of print books to build its AI modelsWhat Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - Rock Paper Scissors novelJack - Tamolitch Falls and Final Destination movie seriesTJ - Watkins Glen State ParkThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.
