🦆 Announcing DuckDB 2.0.0 LTS “Cinnamon Teal” We are proud to release DuckDB 2.0.0, named after the cinnamon teal (Spatula cyanoptera), a striking reddish-brown duck found in the western Americas. 🌎 DuckDB 2.0.0 is the biggest DuckDB feature release so far. It ships a polished version of the Quack protocol, which turns DuckDB into a full-fledged server. It improves performance and lowers costs through supporting asynchronous I/O, a first-class VARIANT type, and a dedicated “agent mode”. It also empowers extension developers with a new SQL parser that allows adding new statements, clauses, and keywords, a new API to build on, and a new mechanism to distribute extensions more easily. In our announcement blog post, we summarize the highlights and then walk through the key changes and give guidance on how to migrate to 2.0. For the complete release notes, see the release page on GitHub⁠. duckdb.org/2026/10/21/announ… #DuckDB

Rails + Text-only Bedrock KB: cheap and worked great. Upgraded my Rails + Bedrock app to multimodal search. Added a 2nd KB with OpenSearch Serverless for image processing, worked amazingly: Unexpected bill! 😅 ​Always check idle costs! 💡 😭 #aws #developerlife

Elon Musk flips a vehicle upside down and everyone claps and cheers. But when I do it, suddenly I'm "recklessly endangering children" and "unfit to be a school bus driver".

I translated my article introducing RubyGems/Bundler 4.1 into English. Part 1 covers override, which rewrites or drops gem dependencies from your Gemfile, and prune, which strips caches from the bundle path. Both are in 4.1.0.beta2. dev.to/hsbt/whats-new-in-rub…

Ruby 4.1.0dev on Windows (mswin, not mingw) is getting faster. On the ruby-bench headline benchmarks, the 4.1 dev build runs 1.32x faster than 4.0 without a JIT, and 2.19x faster with YJIT, which now works on mswin. Stay tuned for the 4.1 release.

The windows port nr 2. In Matz's spinel is coming along well. It compiles, but the code has to be cleaned up a bit more so it doesn't touch too many other files. I'm hoping to get there this week.

A framework is an intelligence cache. You could waste tokens reinventing the ORM, cache, queues, auth, routing, etc, or you could just pick a world-class framework.
Max Schoening
@mschoeningSep 30
I don’t know if I agree with this take. Good frameworks are intelligence caches. The production of verifiable high-quality code has a cost to it (insert for now caveat). Frameworks can lower this cost as long as they don’t get in the way of agents.
