POPULARITY
You drop into an iMessage quick tip and quickly branch into a whole toolkit for running your Apple life smarter. You learn faster ways to edit messages, how Slack's up-arrow muscle memory carries over, and why platforms limit your edit window. From there, the show rolls into clever NFC and QR workflows for appliance manuals, Time Machine fixes over SMB on Synology, and a deep dive on spam and email hygiene: Fastmail's undelete safety net, SaneBox's smart filtering, Apple Mail's categories, plus when to reach for SpamSieve or even your own chatbot to watch junk folders so you Don't Get Caught losing important mail. The crew also compares real‑world email providers, DNS setups (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9), and router‑level changes that stabilize your network. You get a reality check on legacy cruft—Trip Mode, MacFUSE, ancient launch agents—still loading after years of Migration Assistant, and how tools like Lingon and CleanMyMac help you audit what's secretly running. On the fun-and-productivity side, you hear honest impressions of Apple Vision Pro: tabletop-style multiplayer games like Demeo, surprisingly usable virtual desktops, the importance of dual straps and decent cases, and when to skip hotel Wi‑Fi in favor of hotspots or a UniFi travel router so your Macs, iPads, and headsets all “think” they're at home. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1131 for Monday, March 2nd, 2026 March 2nd: National Banana Cream Pie Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Enter to win a copy of SoundSource from Rogue Amoeba!

De retour à cinq dans l'épisode, les cast codeurs démarrent cette année avec un gros épisode pleins de news et d'articles de fond. IA bien sûr, son impact sur les pratiques, Mockito qui tourne un page, du CSS (et oui), sur le (non) mapping d'APIs REST en MCP et d'une palanquée d'outils pour vous. Enregistré le 9 janvier 2026 Téléchargement de l'épisode LesCastCodeurs-Episode-335.mp3 ou en vidéo sur YouTube. News Langages 2026 sera-t'elle l'année de Java dans le terminal ? (j'ai ouïe dire que ça se pourrait bien…) https://xam.dk/blog/lets-make-2026-the-year-of-java-in-the-terminal/ 2026: Année de Java dans le terminal, pour rattraper son retard sur Python, Rust, Go et Node.js. Java est sous-estimé pour les applications CLI et les TUIs (interfaces utilisateur terminales) malgré ses capacités. Les anciennes excuses (démarrage lent, outillage lourd, verbosité, distribution complexe) sont obsolètes grâce aux avancées récentes : GraalVM Native Image pour un démarrage en millisecondes. JBang pour l'exécution simplifiée de scripts Java (fichiers uniques, dépendances) et de JARs. JReleaser pour l'automatisation de la distribution multi-plateforme (Homebrew, SDKMAN, Docker, images natives). Project Loom pour la concurrence facile avec les threads virtuels. PicoCLI pour la gestion des arguments. Le potentiel va au-delà des scripts : création de TUIs complètes et esthétiques (ex: dashboards, gestionnaires de fichiers, assistants IA). Excuses caduques : démarrage rapide (GraalVM), légèreté (JBang), distribution simple (JReleaser), concurrence (Loom). Potentiel : créer des applications TUI riches et esthétiques. Sortie de Ruby 4.0.0 https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2025/12/25/ruby-4-0-0-released/ Ruby Box (expérimental) : Une nouvelle fonctionnalité permettant d'isoler les définitions (classes, modules, monkey patches) dans des boîtes séparées pour éviter les conflits globaux. ZJIT : Un nouveau compilateur JIT de nouvelle génération développé en Rust, visant à surpasser YJIT à terme (actuellement en phase expérimentale). Améliorations de Ractor : Introduction de Ractor::Port pour une meilleure communication entre Ractors et optimisation des structures internes pour réduire les contentions de verrou global. Changements syntaxiques : Les opérateurs logiques (||, &&, and, or) en début de ligne permettent désormais de continuer la ligne précédente, facilitant le style "fluent". Classes Core : Set et Pathname deviennent des classes intégrées (Core) au lieu d'être dans la bibliothèque standard. Diagnostics améliorés : Les erreurs d'arguments (ArgumentError) affichent désormais des extraits de code pour l'appelant ET la définition de la méthode. Performances : Optimisation de Class#new, accès plus rapide aux variables d'instance et améliorations significatives du ramasse-miettes (GC). Nettoyage : Suppression de comportements obsolètes (comme la création de processus via IO.open avec |) et mise à jour vers Unicode 17.0. Librairies Introduction pour créer une appli multi-tenant avec Quarkus et http://nip.io|nip.io https://www.the-main-thread.com/p/quarkus-multi-tenant-api-nipio-tutorial Construction d'une API REST multi-tenant en Quarkus avec isolation par sous-domaine Utilisation de http://nip.io|nip.io pour la résolution DNS automatique sans configuration locale Extraction du tenant depuis l'en-tête HTTP Host via un filtre JAX-RS Contexte tenant géré avec CDI en scope Request pour l'isolation des données Service applicatif gérant des données spécifiques par tenant avec Map concurrent Interface web HTML/JS pour visualiser et ajouter des données par tenant Configuration CORS nécessaire pour le développement local Pattern acme.127-0-0-1.nip.io résolu automatiquement vers localhost Code complet disponible sur GitHub avec exemples curl et tests navigateur Base idéale pour prototypage SaaS, tests multi-tenants Hibernate 7.2 avec quelques améliorations intéressantes https://docs.hibernate.org/orm/7.2/whats-new/%7Bhtml-meta-canonical-link%7D read only replica (experimental), crée deux session factories et swap au niveau jdbc si le driver le supporte et custom sinon. On ouvre une session en read only child statelesssession (partage le contexte transactionnel) hibernate vector module ajouter binary, float16 and sparse vectors Le SchemaManager peut resynchroniser les séquences par rapport aux données des tables Regexp dans HQL avec like Nouvelle version de Hibernate with Panache pour Quarkus https://quarkus.io/blog/hibernate-panache-next/ Nouvelle extension expérimentale qui unifie Hibernate ORM with Panache et Hibernate Reactive with Panache Les entités peuvent désormais fonctionner en mode bloquant ou réactif sans changer de type de base Support des sessions sans état (StatelessSession) en plus des entités gérées traditionnelles Intégration de Jakarta Data pour des requêtes type-safe vérifiées à la compilation Les opérations sont définies dans des repositories imbriqués plutôt que des méthodes statiques Possibilité de définir plusieurs repositories pour différents modes d'opération sur une même entité Accès aux différents modes (bloquant/réactif, géré/sans état) via des méthodes de supertype Support des annotations @Find et @HQL pour générer des requêtes type-safe Accès au repository via injection ou via le métamodèle généré Extension disponible dans la branche main, feedback demandé sur Zulip ou GitHub Spring Shell 4.0.0 GA publié - https://spring.io/blog/2025/12/30/spring-shell-4-0-0-ga-released Sortie de la version finale de Spring Shell 4.0.0 disponible sur Maven Central Compatible avec les dernières versions de Spring Framework et Spring Boot Modèle de commandes revu pour simplifier la création d'applications CLI interactives Intégration de jSpecify pour améliorer la sécurité contre les NullPointerException Architecture plus modulaire permettant meilleure personnalisation et extension Documentation et exemples entièrement mis à jour pour faciliter la prise en main Guide de migration vers la v4 disponible sur le wiki du projet Corrections de bugs pour améliorer la stabilité et la fiabilité Permet de créer des applications Java autonomes exécutables avec java -jar ou GraalVM native Approche opinionnée du développement CLI tout en restant flexible pour les besoins spécifiques Une nouvelle version de la librairie qui implémenter des gatherers supplémentaires à ceux du JDK https://github.com/tginsberg/gatherers4j/releases/tag/v0.13.0 gatherers4j v0.13.0. Nouveaux gatherers : uniquelyOccurringBy(), moving/runningMedian(), moving/runningMax/Min(). Changement : les gatherers "moving" incluent désormais par défaut les valeurs partielles (utiliser excludePartialValues() pour désactiver). LangChain4j 1.10.0 https://github.com/langchain4j/langchain4j/releases/tag/1.10.0 Introduction d'un catalogue de modèles pour Anthropic, Gemini, OpenAI et Mistral. Ajout de capacités d'observabilité et de monitoring pour les agents. Support des sorties structurées, des outils avancés et de l'analyse de PDF via URL pour Anthropic. Support des services de transcription pour OpenAI. Possibilité de passer des paramètres de configuration de chat en argument des méthodes. Nouveau garde-fou de modération pour les messages entrants. Support du contenu de raisonnement pour les modèles. Introduction de la recherche hybride. Améliorations du client MCP. Départ du lead de mockito après 10 ans https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/3777 Tim van der Lippe, mainteneur majeur de Mockito, annonce son départ pour mars 2026, marquant une décennie de contribution au projet. L'une des raisons principales est l'épuisement lié aux changements récents dans la JVM (JVM 22+) concernant les agents, imposant des contraintes techniques lourdes sans alternative simple proposée par les mainteneurs du JDK. Il pointe du doigt le manque de soutien et la pression exercée sur les bénévoles de l'open source lors de ces transitions technologiques majeures. La complexité croissante pour supporter Kotlin, qui utilise la JVM de manière spécifique, rend la base de code de Mockito plus difficile à maintenir et moins agréable à faire évoluer selon lui. Il exprime une perte de plaisir et préfère désormais consacrer son temps libre à d'autres projets comme Servo, un moteur web écrit en Rust. Une période de transition est prévue jusqu'en mars pour assurer la passation de la maintenance à de nouveaux contributeurs. Infrastructure Le premier intérêt de Kubernetes n'est pas le scaling - https://mcorbin.fr/posts/2025-12-29-kubernetes-scale/ Avant Kubernetes, gérer des applications en production nécessitait de multiples outils complexes (Ansible, Puppet, Chef) avec beaucoup de configuration manuelle Le load balancing se faisait avec HAProxy et Keepalived en actif/passif, nécessitant des mises à jour manuelles de configuration à chaque changement d'instance Le service discovery et les rollouts étaient orchestrés manuellement, instance par instance, sans automatisation de la réconciliation Chaque stack (Java, Python, Ruby) avait sa propre méthode de déploiement, sans standardisation (rpm, deb, tar.gz, jar) La gestion des ressources était manuelle avec souvent une application par machine, créant du gaspillage et complexifiant la maintenance Kubernetes standardise tout en quelques ressources YAML (Deployment, Service, Ingress, ConfigMap, Secret) avec un format déclaratif simple Toutes les fonctionnalités critiques sont intégrées : service discovery, load balancing, scaling, stockage, firewalling, logging, tolérance aux pannes La complexité des centaines de scripts shell et playbooks Ansible maintenus avant était supérieure à celle de Kubernetes Kubernetes devient pertinent dès qu'on commence à reconstruire manuellement ces fonctionnalités, ce qui arrive très rapidement La technologie est flexible et peut gérer aussi bien des applications modernes que des monolithes legacy avec des contraintes spécifiques Mole https://github.com/tw93/Mole Un outil en ligne de commande (CLI) tout-en-un pour nettoyer et optimiser macOS. Combine les fonctionnalités de logiciels populaires comme CleanMyMac, AppCleaner, DaisyDisk et iStat Menus. Analyse et supprime en profondeur les caches, les fichiers logs et les résidus de navigateurs. Désinstallateur intelligent qui retire proprement les applications et leurs fichiers cachés (Launch Agents, préférences). Analyseur d'espace disque interactif pour visualiser l'occupation des fichiers et gérer les documents volumineux. Tableau de bord temps réel (mo status) pour surveiller le CPU, le GPU, la mémoire et le réseau. Fonction de purge spécifique pour les développeurs permettant de supprimer les artefacts de build (node_modules, target, etc.). Intégration possible avec Raycast ou Alfred pour un lancement rapide des commandes. Installation simple via Homebrew ou un script curl. Des images Docker sécurisées pour chaque développeur https://www.docker.com/blog/docker-hardened-images-for-every-developer/ Docker rend ses "Hardened Images" (DHI) gratuites et open source (licence Apache 2.0) pour tous les développeurs. Ces images sont conçues pour être minimales, prêtes pour la production et sécurisées dès le départ afin de lutter contre l'explosion des attaques sur la chaîne logistique logicielle. Elles s'appuient sur des bases familières comme Alpine et Debian, garantissant une compatibilité élevée et une migration facile. Chaque image inclut un SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) complet et vérifiable, ainsi qu'une provenance SLSA de niveau 3 pour une transparence totale. L'utilisation de ces images permet de réduire considérablement le nombre de vulnérabilités (CVE) et la taille des images (jusqu'à 95 % plus petites). Docker étend cette approche sécurisée aux graphiques Helm et aux serveurs MCP (Mongo, Grafana, GitHub, etc.). Des offres commerciales (DHI Enterprise) restent disponibles pour des besoins spécifiques : correctifs critiques sous 7 jours, support FIPS/FedRAMP ou support à cycle de vie étendu (ELS). Un assistant IA expérimental de Docker peut analyser les conteneurs existants pour recommander l'adoption des versions sécurisées correspondantes. L'initiative est soutenue par des partenaires majeurs tels que Google, MongoDB, Snyk et la CNCF. Web La maçonnerie ("masonry") arrive dans la spécification des CSS et commence à être implémentée par les navigateurs https://webkit.org/blog/17660/introducing-css-grid-lanes/ Permet de mettre en colonne des éléments HTML les uns à la suite des autres. D'abord sur la première ligne, et quand la première ligne est remplie, le prochain élément se trouvera dans la colonne où il pourra être le plus haut possible, et ainsi de suite. après la plomberie du middleware, la maçonnerie du front :laughing: Data et Intelligence Artificielle On ne devrait pas faire un mapping 1:1 entre API REST et MCP https://nordicapis.com/why-mcp-shouldnt-wrap-an-api-one-to-one/ Problématique : Envelopper une API telle quelle dans le protocole MCP (Model Context Protocol) est un anti-pattern. Objectif du MCP : Conçu pour les agents d'IA, il doit servir d'interface d'intention, non de miroir d'API. Les agents comprennent les tâches, pas la logique complexe des API (authentification, pagination, orchestration). Conséquences du mappage un-à-un : Confusion des agents, erreurs, hallucinations. Difficulté à gérer les orchestrations complexes (plusieurs appels pour une seule action). Exposition des faiblesses de l'API (schéma lourd, endpoints obsolètes). Maintenance accrue lors des changements d'API. Meilleure approche : Construire des outils MCP comme des SDK pour agents, encapsulant la logique nécessaire pour accomplir une tâche spécifique. Pratiques recommandées : Concevoir autour des intentions/actions utilisateur (ex. : "créer un projet", "résumer un document"). Regrouper les appels en workflows ou actions uniques. Utiliser un langage naturel pour les définitions et les noms. Limiter la surface d'exposition de l'API pour la sécurité et la clarté. Appliquer des schémas d'entrée/sortie stricts pour guider l'agent et réduire l'ambiguïté. Des agents en production avec AWS - https://blog.ippon.fr/2025/12/22/des-agents-en-production-avec-aws/ AWS re:Invent 2025 a massivement mis en avant l'IA générative et les agents IA Un agent IA combine un LLM, une boucle d'appel et des outils invocables Strands Agents SDK facilite le prototypage avec boucles ReAct intégrées et gestion de la mémoire Managed MLflow permet de tracer les expérimentations et définir des métriques de performance Nova Forge optimise les modèles par réentraînement sur données spécifiques pour réduire coûts et latence Bedrock Agent Core industrialise le déploiement avec runtime serverless et auto-scaling Agent Core propose neuf piliers dont observabilité, authentification, code interpreter et browser managé Le protocole MCP d'Anthropic standardise la fourniture d'outils aux agents SageMaker AI et Bedrock centralisent l'accès aux modèles closed source et open source via API unique AWS mise sur l'évolution des chatbots vers des systèmes agentiques optimisés avec modèles plus frugaux Debezium 3.4 amène plusieurs améliorations intéressantes https://debezium.io/blog/2025/12/16/debezium-3-4-final-released/ Correction du problème de calcul du low watermark Oracle qui causait des pertes de performance Correction de l'émission des événements heartbeat dans le connecteur Oracle avec les requêtes CTE Amélioration des logs pour comprendre les transactions actives dans le connecteur Oracle Memory guards pour protéger contre les schémas de base de données de grande taille Support de la transformation des coordonnées géométriques pour une meilleure gestion des données spatiales Extension Quarkus DevServices permettant de démarrer automatiquement une base de données et Debezium en dev Intégration OpenLineage pour tracer la lignée des données et suivre leur flux à travers les pipelines Compatibilité testée avec Kafka Connect 4.1 et Kafka brokers 4.1 Infinispan 16.0.4 et .5 https://infinispan.org/blog/2025/12/17/infinispan-16-0-4 Spring Boot 4 et Spring 7 supportés Evolution dans les metriques Deux bugs de serialisation Construire un agent de recherche en Java avec l'API Interactions https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/01/03/building-a-research-assistant-with-the-interactions-api-in-java/ Assistant de recherche IA Java (API Interactions Gemini), test du SDK implémenté par Guillaume. Workflow en 4 phases : Planification : Gemini Flash + Google Search. Recherche : Modèle "Deep Research" (tâche de fond). Synthèse : Gemini Pro (rapport exécutif). Infographie : Nano Banana Pro (à partir de la synthèse). API Interactions : gestion d'état serveur, tâches en arrière-plan, réponses multimodales (images). Appréciation : gestion d'état de l'API (vs LLM sans état). Validation : efficacité du SDK Java pour cas complexes. Stephan Janssen (le papa de Devoxx) a créé un serveur MCP (Model Context Protocol) basé sur LSP (Language Server Protocol) pour que les assistants de code analysent le code en le comprenant vraiment plutôt qu'en faisant des grep https://github.com/stephanj/LSP4J-MCP Le problème identifié : Les assistants IA utilisent souvent la recherche textuelle (type grep) pour naviguer dans le code, ce qui manque de contexte sémantique, génère du bruit (faux positifs) et consomme énormément de tokens inutilement. La solution LSP4J-MCP : Une approche "standalone" (autonome) qui encapsule le serveur de langage Eclipse (JDTLS) via le protocole MCP (Model Context Protocol). Avantage principal : Offre une compréhension sémantique profonde du code Java (types, hiérarchies, références) sans nécessiter l'ouverture d'un IDE lourd comme IntelliJ. Comparaison des méthodes : AST : Trop léger (pas de compréhension inter-fichiers). IntelliJ MCP : Puissant mais exige que l'IDE soit ouvert (gourmand en ressources). LSP4J-MCP : Le meilleur des deux mondes pour les workflows en terminal, à distance (SSH) ou CI/CD. Fonctionnalités clés : Expose 5 outils pour l'IA (find_symbols, find_references, find_definition, document_symbols, find_interfaces_with_method). Résultats : Une réduction de 100x des tokens utilisés pour la navigation et une précision accrue (distinction des surcharges, des scopes, etc.). Disponibilité : Le projet est open source et disponible sur GitHub pour intégration immédiate (ex: avec Claude Code, Gemini CLI, etc). A noter l'ajout dans claude code 2.0.74 d'un tool pour supporter LSP ( https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#2074 ) Awesome (GitHub) Copilot https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot Une collection communautaire d'instructions, de prompts et de configurations pour optimiser l'utilisation de GitHub Copilot. Propose des "Agents" spécialisés qui s'intègrent aux serveurs MCP pour améliorer les flux de travail spécifiques. Inclut des prompts ciblés pour la génération de code, la documentation et la résolution de problèmes complexes. Fournit des instructions détaillées sur les standards de codage et les meilleures pratiques applicables à divers frameworks. Propose des "Skills" (compétences) sous forme de dossiers contenant des ressources pour des tâches techniques spécialisées.

IA et productivité : bilan de l'année 2025 (Laura Tacho - DX)) https://newsletter.getdx.com/p/ai-and-productivity-year-in-review?aid=recNfypKAanQrKszT En 2025, l'ingénierie assistée par l'IA est devenue la norme : environ 90 % des développeurs utilisent des outils d'IA mensuellement, et plus de 40 % quotidiennement. Les chercheurs (Microsoft, Google, GitHub) soulignent que le nombre de lignes de code (LOC) reste un mauvais indicateur d'impact, car l'IA génère beaucoup de code sans forcément garantir une valeur métier supérieure. Si l'IA améliore l'efficacité individuelle, elle pourrait nuire à la collaboration à long terme, car les développeurs passent plus de temps à "parler" à l'IA qu'à leurs collègues. L'identité du développeur évolue : il passe de "producteur de code" à un rôle de "metteur en scène" qui délègue, valide et exerce son jugement stratégique. L'IA pourrait accélérer la montée en compétences des développeurs juniors en les forçant à gérer des projets et à déléguer plus tôt, agissant comme un "accélérateur" plutôt que de les rendre obsolètes. L'accent est mis sur la créativité plutôt que sur la simple automatisation, afin de réimaginer la manière de travailler et d'obtenir des résultats plus impactants. Le succès en 2026 dépendra de la capacité des entreprises à cibler les goulots d'étranglement réels (dette technique, documentation, conformité) plutôt que de tester simplement chaque nouveau modèle d'IA. La newsletter avertit que les titres de presse simplifient souvent à l'excès les recherches sur l'IA, masquant parfois les nuances cruciales des études réelles. Un développeur décrit dans un article sur Twitter son utilisation avancée de Claude Code pour le développement, avec des sous-agents, des slash-commands, comment optimiser le contexte, etc. https://x.com/AureaLibe/status/2008958120878330329?s=20 Outillage IntelliJ IDEA, thread dumps et project Loom (virtual threads) - https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2025/12/thread-dumps-and-project-loom-virtual-threads/ Les virtual threads Java améliorent l'utilisation du matériel pour les opérations I/O parallèles avec peu de changements de code Un serveur peut maintenant gérer des millions de threads au lieu de quelques centaines Les outils existants peinent à afficher et analyser des millions de threads simultanément Le débogage asynchrone est complexe car le scheduler et le worker s'exécutent dans des threads différents Les thread dumps restent essentiels pour diagnostiquer deadlocks, UI bloquées et fuites de threads Netflix a découvert un deadlock lié aux virtual threads en analysant un heap dump, bug corrigé dans Java 25. Mais c'était de la haute voltige IntelliJ IDEA supporte nativement les virtual threads dès leur sortie avec affichage des locks acquis IntelliJ IDEA peut ouvrir des thread dumps générés par d'autres outils comme jcmd Le support s'étend aussi aux coroutines Kotlin en plus des virtual threads Quelques infos sur IntelliJ IDEA 2025.3 https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2025/12/intellij-idea-2025-3/ Distribution unifiée regroupant davantage de fonctionnalités gratuites Amélioration de la complétion des commandes dans l'IDE Nouvelles fonctionnalités pour le débogueur Spring Thème Islands devient le thème par défaut Support complet de Spring Boot 4 et Spring Framework 7 Compatibilité avec Java 25 Prise en charge de Spring Data JDBC et Vitest 4 Support natif de Junie et Claude Agent pour l'IA Quota d'IA transparent et option Bring Your Own Key à venir Corrections de stabilité, performance et expérience utilisateur Plein de petits outils en ligne pour le développeur https://blgardner.github.io/prism.tools/ génération de mot de passe, de gradient CSS, de QR code encodage décodage de Base64, JWT formattage de JSON, etc. resumectl - Votre CV en tant que code https://juhnny5.github.io/resumectl/ Un outil en ligne de commande (CLI) écrit en Go pour générer un CV à partir d'un fichier YAML. Permet l'exportation vers plusieurs formats : PDF, HTML, ou un affichage direct dans le terminal. Propose 5 thèmes intégrés (Modern, Classic, Minimal, Elegant, Tech) personnalisables avec des couleurs spécifiques. Fonctionnalité d'initialisation (resumectl init) permettant d'importer automatiquement des données depuis LinkedIn et GitHub (projets les plus étoilés). Supporte l'ajout de photos avec des options de filtre noir et blanc ou de forme (rond/carré). Inclut un mode "serveur" (resumectl serve) pour prévisualiser les modifications en temps réel via un navigateur local. Fonctionne comme un binaire unique sans dépendances externes complexes pour les modèles. mactop - Un moniteur "top" pour Apple Silicon https://github.com/metaspartan/mactop Un outil de surveillance en ligne de commande (TUI) conçu spécifiquement pour les puces Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4, M5). Permet de suivre en temps réel l'utilisation du CPU (E-cores et P-cores), du GPU et de l'ANE (Neural Engine). Affiche la consommation électrique (wattage) du système, du CPU, du GPU et de la DRAM. Fournit des données sur les températures du SoC, les fréquences du GPU et l'état thermique global. Surveille l'utilisation de la mémoire vive, de la swap, ainsi que l'activité réseau et disque (E/S). Propose 10 mises en page (layouts) différentes et plusieurs thèmes de couleurs personnalisables. Ne nécessite pas l'utilisation de sudo car il s'appuie sur les API natives d'Apple (SMC, IOReport, IOKit). Inclut une liste de processus détaillée (similaire à htop) avec la possibilité de tuer des processus directement depuis l'interface. Offre un mode "headless" pour exporter les métriques au format JSON et un serveur optionnel pour Prometheus. Développé en Go avec des composants en CGO et Objective-C. Adieu direnv, Bonjour misehttps://codeka.io/2025/12/19/adieu-direnv-bonjour-mise/ L'auteur remplace ses outils habituels (direnv, asdf, task, just) par un seul outil polyvalent écrit en Rust : mise. mise propose trois fonctions principales : gestionnaire de paquets (langages et outils), gestionnaire de variables d'environnement et exécuteur de tâches. Contrairement à direnv, il permet de gérer des alias et utilise un fichier de configuration structuré (mise.toml) plutôt que du scripting shell. La configuration est hiérarchique, permettant de surcharger les paramètres selon les répertoires, avec un système de "trust" pour la sécurité. Une "killer-feature" soulignée est la gestion des secrets : mise s'intègre avec age pour chiffrer des secrets (via clés SSH) directement dans le fichier de configuration. L'outil supporte une vaste liste de langages et d'outils via un registre interne et des plugins (compatibilité avec l'écosystème asdf). Il simplifie le workflow de développement en regroupant l'installation des outils et l'automatisation des tâches au sein d'un même fichier. L'auteur conclut sur la puissance, la flexibilité et les excellentes performances de l'outil après quelques heures de test. Claude Code v2.1.0 https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#210 Rechargement à chaud des "skills" : Les modifications apportées aux compétences dans ~/.claude/skills sont désormais appliquées instantanément sans redémarrer la session. Sous-agents et forks : Support de l'exécution de compétences et de commandes slash dans un contexte de sous-agent forké via context: fork. Réglages linguistiques : Ajout d'un paramètre language pour configurer la langue de réponse par défaut (ex: language: "french"). Améliorations du terminal : Shift+Enter fonctionne désormais nativement dans plusieurs terminaux (iTerm2, WezTerm, Ghostty, Kitty) sans configuration manuelle. Sécurité et correction de bugs : Correction d'une faille où des données sensibles (clés API, tokens OAuth) pouvaient apparaître dans les logs de débogage. Nouvelles commandes slash : Ajout de /teleport et /remote-env pour les abonnés claude.ai afin de gérer des sessions distantes. Mode Plan : Le raccourci /plan permet d'activer le mode plan directement depuis le prompt, et la demande de permission à l'entrée de ce mode a été supprimée. Vim et navigation : Ajout de nombreux mouvements Vim (text objects, répétitions de mouvements f/F/t/T, indentations, etc.). Performance : Optimisation du temps de démarrage et du rendu terminal pour les caractères Unicode/Emoji. Gestion du gitignore : Support du réglage respectGitignore dans settings.json pour contrôler le comportement du sélecteur de fichiers @-mention. Méthodologies 200 déploiements en production par jour, même le vendredi : retours d'expérience https://mcorbin.fr/posts/2025-03-21-deploy-200/ Le déploiement fréquent, y compris le vendredi, est un indicateur de maturité technique et augmente la productivité globale. L'excellence technique est un atout stratégique indispensable pour livrer rapidement des produits de qualité. Une architecture pragmatique orientée services (SOA) facilite les déploiements indépendants et réduit la charge cognitive. L'isolation des services est cruciale : un développeur doit pouvoir tester son service localement sans dépendre de toute l'infrastructure. L'automatisation via Kubernetes et l'approche GitOps avec ArgoCD permettent des déploiements continus et sécurisés. Les feature flags et un système de permissions solide permettent de découpler le déploiement technique de l'activation fonctionnelle pour les utilisateurs. L'autonomie des développeurs est renforcée par des outils en self-service (CLI maison) pour gérer l'infrastructure et diagnostiquer les incidents sans goulot d'étranglement. Une culture d'observabilité intégrée dès la conception permet de détecter et de réagir rapidement aux anomalies en production. Accepter l'échec comme inévitable permet de concevoir des systèmes plus résilients capables de se rétablir automatiquement. "Vibe Coding" vs "Prompt Engineering" : l'IA et le futur du développement logiciel https://www.romenrg.com/blog/2025/12/25/vibe-coding-vs-prompt-engineering-ai-and-the-future-of-software-development/ L'IA est passée du statut d'expérimentation à celui d'infrastructure essentielle pour le développement de logiciels en 2025. L'IA ne remplace pas les ingénieurs, mais agit comme un amplificateur de leurs compétences, de leur jugement et de la qualité de leur réflexion. Distinction entre le "Vibe Coding" (rapide, intuitif, idéal pour les prototypes) et le "Prompt Engineering" (délibéré, contraint, nécessaire pour les systèmes maintenables). L'importance cruciale du contexte ("Context Engineering") : l'IA devient réellement puissante lorsqu'elle est connectée aux systèmes réels (GitHub, Jira, etc.) via des protocoles comme le MCP. Utilisation d'agents spécialisés (écriture de RFC, revue de code, architecture) plutôt que de modèles génériques pour obtenir de meilleurs résultats. Émergence de l'ingénieur "Technical Product Manager" capable d'abattre seul le travail d'une petite équipe grâce à l'IA, à condition de maîtriser les fondamentaux techniques. Le risque majeur : l'IA permet d'aller très vite dans la mauvaise direction si le jugement humain et l'expérience font défaut. Le niveau d'exigence global augmente : les bases techniques solides deviennent plus importantes que jamais pour éviter l'accumulation de dette technique rapide. Une revue de code en solo (Kent Beck) ! https://tidyfirst.substack.com/p/party-of-one-for-code-review?r=64ov3&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true La revue de code traditionnelle, héritée des inspections formelles d'IBM, s'essouffle car elle est devenue trop lente et asynchrone par rapport au rythme du développement moderne. Avec l'arrivée de l'IA ("le génie"), la vitesse de production du code dépasse la capacité de relecture humaine, créant un goulot d'étranglement majeur. La revue de code doit évoluer vers deux nouveaux objectifs prioritaires : un "sanity check" pour vérifier que l'IA a bien fait ce qu'on lui demandait, et le contrôle de la dérive structurelle de la base de code. Maintenir une structure saine est crucial non seulement pour les futurs développeurs humains, mais aussi pour que l'IA puisse continuer à comprendre et modifier le code efficacement sans perdre le contexte. Kent Beck expérimente des outils automatisés (comme CodeRabbit) pour obtenir des résumés et des schémas d'architecture afin de garder une conscience globale des changements rapides. Même si les outils automatisés sont utiles, le "Pair Programming" reste irremplaçable pour la richesse des échanges et la pression sociale bénéfique qu'il impose à la réflexion. La revue de code solo n'est pas une fin en soi, mais une adaptation nécessaire lorsque l'on travaille seul avec des outils de génération de code augmentés.

Reactions to ChatGPT's voice mode disappearing from the macOS app, debates about why it happened, and how it impacts their use are provided by Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Mark Fuccio, Web Bixby, and Jim Rea. Whether voice is the future, and if OpenAI's “code red” priorities played a role are examined. Then, the panel also review the new “Tech Force" that is tapping talent from major tech firms for government initiatives, raising questions about goals, oversight, privacy, and long-term maintenance. The discussion wraps up with a Pennsylvania court ruling allowing police access to certain Google search data without a warrant. MacVoices is supported by CleanMyMac from MacPaw. Get Tidy Today!

Hablamos en profundidad de iOS 26, iOS 27 e incluso iOS 28, y de cómo Apple está planificando el futuro de su software con cambios importantes que podrían transformar la experiencia del iPhone, iPad y Apple Watch.Comentamos las filtraciones que apuntan directamente al desarrollo del iPhone plegable, el esperado AirTag 2 y nuevos dispositivos que Apple aún no ha anunciado oficialmente. Además, repasamos las pistas sobre un iMac Pro con chip M5 Max, el posible Apple Studio Display 2 con ProMotion a 120 Hz, HDR y un nuevo chip A19, y cómo encajan estos productos en la estrategia profesional de la compañía.También hablamos de novedades más inmediatas, como iOS 26.3 y su nueva función de reenvío de notificaciones para wearables de terceros, y de un leak temprano de iOS 26 que deja ver decenas de funciones que llegarán próximamente.Ponemos el foco en la inteligencia artificial: OpenAI lanza ChatGPT Images con un objetivo muy claro, plantar cara a Google y a Nano Banana Pro, en una batalla cada vez más agresiva por el dominio de la IA creativa.

Qué tal, queridos amigos, queridos Curiosinautas. En este CuriosiMartes nos metemos de lleno en algo que ya vengo anticipando hace semanas: la burbuja de la inteligencia artificial está a punto de estallar. Vemos caídas de servicios críticos, decisiones políticas desesperadas, fusiones millonarias y una guerra brutal entre las grandes empresas de IA por tu atención… y por tu mente.Analizamos el éxodo de ejecutivos de Apple hacia Meta, el fracaso del metaverso, la presión de gobiernos como Rusia e India sobre la tecnología, la caída de suscriptores de ChatGPT frente al avance de Gemini, las demandas por copyright contra empresas de IA y algo todavía más delicado: chatbots que pueden cambiar opiniones, influir decisiones e incluso reemplazar el duelo con bots de personas fallecidas.Pero también hay lugar para la esperanza: te muestro avances increíbles en salud y biotecnología, como córneas impresas en 3D, tratamientos robóticos mínimamente invasivos contra el cáncer, la reversión del Parkinson con células madre, IA que analiza radiografías y un brazo biónico conectado directamente al sistema nervioso.Y, por supuesto, en medio de todo esto, anunciamos al ganador de la licencia de CleanMyMac, con el clásico sorteo en vivo entre los comentarios del canal.
This discussion dives into the debate over affordable computing for students and families, comparing Chromebooks, iPads, and the possibility of a new low-cost Mac from Apple. Chuck Joiner, Marty Jencius, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Eric Bolden, Jim Rea, Web Bixby, and David Ginsburg compare performance, device lifespan, security, and management tools, asking how Apple can compete in price-sensitive school markets without sacrificing the user experience that defines its hardware.

En este episodio del iSenaCode Live, analizamos a fondo cómo será el esperado iPhone Fold según las últimas filtraciones: un diseño sin pliegue visible, una bisagra rediseñada y tres funciones clave que podrían convertirlo en el dispositivo más ambicioso de Apple desde el primer iPhone.También comentamos una de las noticias más potentes de la semana: la integración de Apple Health con ChatGPT, un movimiento que puede transformar la salud digital y abrir la puerta a un asistente realmente personal.Además, repasamos la llegada del nuevo sistema AirDrop entre iPhone y Android que por fin resuelve la eterna barrera entre ecosistemas.Minchu nos trae la Apple Collection con curiosidades irresistibles, Oscar reflexiona sobre alternativas profesionales de Apple y Albert nos guía por la evolución de los chips de Apple hasta hoy. Cerramos con la clásica sección de Gamba o Chuletón, con una historia que conecta Pluribus con Breaking Bad.Un episodio redondo, lleno de análisis, humor y pura pasión por la tecnología.“Mucho de lo que damos por sentado hoy, ayer era ciencia ficción.” Mantente siempre un paso adelante.
En este episodio del iSenaCode Live, nos adentramos en un momento decisivo para el futuro del iPhone y de Siri. Las últimas filtraciones dibujan un panorama sorprendente: Apple podría acelerar el ritmo de lanzamientos, replantear parte de su estrategia de producto y, de paso, abrir la puerta a asistentes de terceros en el propio botón lateral. Todo esto mientras el Mac Pro parece quedar en pausa y el papel de Tim Cook empieza a mirarse desde otra perspectiva más compleja de lo que parece.Conversamos sobre lo que significan estos movimientos, hacia dónde apunta realmente Apple y cómo podría cambiar nuestra experiencia diaria con el iPhone en los próximos años. Entre reflexión y reflexiones, se suman las secciones personales del equipo: Víctor nos envuelve en “El Encuentro”, Rafa fantasea con el iPhone Air y Minchu rescata la historia casi olvidada de la PiPPin. Un episodio lleno de momentos divertidos, opiniones sin filtros y esa mezcla entre análisis y pasión que nos define.“Quien entiende el presente, anticipa el futuro”.
