Opus 5.5 built me 184 SwiftUI AgentThinking text animations with Claude Code’s spinner verbs, from Accomplishing to Zigzagging. Each animation is unique and conveys its own meaning. I will share the Xcode project on GitHub, so 🔖 it.

Opus 5.5 is pretty awesome! It helped me build a small paddling game based in Ohrid - Europe's most beautiful place according to Time Out Magazine (in the world, according to me). The level of detail is genuinely impressive. You can try it out here: ohrid.vercel.app.

Every moderation taxonomy I’ve seen started in social media. It includes: 1) Hate speech 2) Harassment  3) Spam 4) Self-harm. …then you build an app for another vertical, and these four barely scratch the surface.

Real-time notifications, out of the box. Likes, comments, follows and mentions arrive instantly, get grouped automatically ("Sarah and 6 others liked your post") and track read/unread for you. One flag. That's it. getstream.io/activity-feeds

Which requires more live chat moderation: the NFL or college football? The answer might surprise you. (It did for me.) College football Saturday produced 23% more flagged messages than NFL Sunday. And 39% more than Monday Night Football. Yes, even those noon kickoffs between two small schools need monitoring 👀

Fourteen games, one Sunday, 38,900 moderation decisions. The number that matters is the last one.
Fourteen NFL games yesterday. One prediction market. 38,900 items into the moderation queue. 32,563 actioned automatically. 1,600 looked at by a person. Zero false positives. That ratio is the only reason any of this works. You cannot hire your way to 38,900 decisions in a day, and you cannot get them wrong either.

Great to see Pratim take the stage at RTC.ON 2026 this week. His talk, "SVC on Android, Debugged," traces a real debugging journey: Android's hardware VP9 encoders accept SVC configuration but silently produce only one spatial layer instead of the promised three, creating a mismatch between what the SFU expects and what actually shows up in the stream. Take a look if you work in video on Android: piped.video/YBOGK3iwzdA?t=10757

Thursday night. Prime time. The whole sports internet is supposedly watching football. In the chats Stream moderates, the loudest minute of the entire day hit at 8:32pm ET — 62 flagged messages in sixty seconds. It was a Shohei Ohtani home run. For the whole 8pm-to-midnight window, baseball got mentioned 14x more than football did.

No deploy, no wait, just run it.
Building a great feed shouldn’t require a deploy every time you want to test an idea. So we built the Feeds Playground. Change the user. Apply a view. Add filters. Tune ranking. Hit Run. See the result immediately. Experiment first. Ship when it feels right 🚀

Shadow blocking is the most common action we take and the least understood one. Lou explains why it beats telling someone they're blocked. Why "you've been blocked" is usually the wrong move.
225,462 shadow blocks last month on one platform we moderate. 89,859 flags. Zero blocks. A shadow block means the message posts normally for the person who sent it and is invisible to everyone else. No error, no warning, nothing to tell them it happened. That's the point. Tell a spammer he's blocked and he has a new account in ninety seconds and you start over. Let him keep posting into an empty room and he stays exactly where you can watch him. Almost nobody who broke the rules last month found out they broke the rules.

One user. 995 enforcement actions in a week. 18.6% of everything Stream caught. @kenziewilsn breaks down what a single repeat offender actually costs a community, and why it's rarely "the crowd."
Of all the moderation activity Stream flagged, one user committed 18.6% of the abuse. That's nearly a fifth. This included 995 enforcement actions in seven days, or 142 per day. Flooding, vulgarity, insults, and 96 separate racist messages. Don't let one person kill the vibe.

Two events, two talks, one very packed week for our DevRel @max_does_tech. Great recap below on how it went, second brains, AI agents, and a surprise 44,000 year detour.
Had an *amazing* time on Tuesday speaking at the @ClaudeDevs Code community meetup in Amsterdam! So many great discussions about improving a second brain system with interesting, engaged people building really cool projects. Doing more talks again recently has reminded me how much I love public speaking as a way to connect with people. And it turns out that "the real second brain was the skills we made along the way" 🤷‍♂️ It was great to discuss what we're doing to help AI agents like @claudeai to help you get the best results when you build with @getstream_io, and even better to take everyone through 44,000 years of second brain history! Thanks Roman for inviting me and to you and Jenny for running such a great event! Can't wait to be back 🙌 #ai #claude #secondbrain #skills

Prediction markets are booming. So are the usual 1% of participants that are there for the wrong reasons. @getstream_io is the #1 infra provider for chat and moderation, and the platform helps make it a great experience for all...

The most matched blocklist entry last week wasn’t a slur. It was the first three letters of one. 👇
16,200 racist messages in six days on one of the platforms we moderate. That number isn’t the interesting part.

Gemini 3.8 Live + Stream Video for SwiftUI = a real-time AI chat, vision, and voice app on iOS. @amos_gyamfi wired it up with our open source SwiftUI AI components: streaming markdown, typing states, composer, speech to text.
Build a real-time AI chat, vision, and voice app in iOS/SwiftUI using Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.5 Transcribe. It is similar to the Gemini Live experience.
