Should Europe leave frontier AI to the Americans and the Chinese?
The idea has gained ground in Europe. It is a fundamental mistake.
Build or surrender: for now, the choice is still ours.

As you invite more agents to our work, and create software factories to be more productive than ever, you’ll soon outsource everything to an agent, even the thinking.
The work you will do will feel frictionless, it will feel amazing on the surface, but once you go a bit deeper, it’ll feel extremely shallow. It won’t reflect the struggles you went through, your decisions, and ideas.
It will no longer remind you of you and the work you aspire to.
You will turn into just another extremely efficient producer of things, but not a creator like you were before.
Invite friction to your work.

I'll continue to die on the hill of "magic directives are bad API interfaces". They're not type-safe, they're not extensible, no native runtime control, they're just strings.
... I can't believe I'm saying this, but I would rather debate @ directives. Pls rewind history.

Got to admit: Microsoft absolutely nailed its developer agent positioning.
Other startups: "we built an AI Engineer" - suggesting to leadership that it will replace developers (and thus worth paying $$$ for)
Microsoft: "a peer programmer" - suggesting it needs devs (it does!)
I think we've become accustomed to seeing back-to-back announcements by major AI players: Google launches X, OpenAI announces Y. But where's Apple?
You have to wonder how they can be so far behind with all the resources they have.

Aujourd’hui nous créons le premier compte courant français rémunéré au taux de la BCE sans conditions... Mais ce n’est pas tout !
Avec @vincent_ard nous vous expliquons tout 👇 !
Bienvenue en 2025 ❤️ !
Avec plus d'un million de clients en France, nous localisons entièrement notre application pour répondre aux besoins des Françaises et des Français. La succursale française de Trade Republic est opérationnelle.
Nous lançons donc :
-un Compte Courant avec un IBAN français, rémunéré en permanence au taux de la BCE (3% brut actuellement) sans conditions et sans plafond ;
-un Plan d’Épargne en Actions (PEA) avec la fonctionnalité des plans d’épargne sans frais de courtage
Nous allons également désormais prélever à la sources les impôts relatifs aux intérêts ou dividendes reçus sur le compte.
Nous sommes également très heureux d’annoncer que @traderepublic sert désormais plus de 8 millions de clients en Europe et gère désormais plus de 100 Milliards d’euros globalement.
Avec notre directeur France, Vincent Grard nous vous expliquons tout dans une vidéo Youtube de 20 minutes. Vous avez sans doute beaucoup de questions ? Nous avons essayé d’y répondre !
Vous retrouverez le lien de la vidéo en commentaire !
Également en commentaire, le communiqué de presse publié ce matin.
Un immense merci aux équipes de Trade Republic qui rendent ce lancement possible 🚀.
Et à vous toutes et tous pour votre confiance qui nous honore 🙏.
En avant
Et pour une fois, je peux écrire juste pour aujourd’hui :
Vive Trade République ! 😅

The best time to start learning React Native was in 2015. The second-best time is now.
The New Architecture is here!
React Native 0.76 enables the New Architecture by default:

How is this website so fast?
I take a look behind McMaster-Carr and detail all the techniques they are using to make it fast.
They are doing it all — prefetching HTML, inlined CSS, fixed images, pushstate — and all on a stack with 15 year old tech.

Our friends at @krakenfx just published an article on their migration to the New #ReactNative Architecture.
They are early adopters, so they faced several challenges, but thanks to them we solved those issues for everyone else!
Enjoy the article!

Why we wrote Docker in Go instead of Python:
Here's why we did it:
1. A compiled binary that didn't require installing a language runtime and therefore didn't trigger tribalism. Devops teams back then were fragmented across Python, Ruby and Java. Every tool written in one language would instantly get cloned in the others. So we wanted to avoid that.
2. We were all Python/C programmers and Go gave us the best of both.
3. The syntax was "mainstream" without too many niche or radical concepts. We thought this would help build a large contributor community.
4. We had a nerdy gut feeling that it was cool and new, and we wanted to play with it. We felt that other engineers would also feel that way, and Docker would benefit from that aura.

Thanks for tuning to my @ViteConf talk - here are the slides: docs.google.com/presentation…
The question is: what happens when money stops flowing or misalignments appear between the business & the open source project? You better wish the community is big enough & organized to self-support itself.
