Practical tips, tech insights and developer thoughts from the world of the modern web.
Here's the first post on the TerraCode blog: not reworded press releases, but what we actually use and try out ourselves.
OpenAI released GPT-6 Astra: superhuman-speed at computer use, but also the first of its own models to cross the 'Critical' cybersecurity risk threshold.
Anthropic released Fable 5.1 alongside a restricted-access sibling, Mythos 5.1: same headline pricing, but 75% cheaper cache reads and significantly stronger coding/research performance.
Google released 3.7 Flash just three weeks after 3.6 Flash: at an introductory price half the previous rate, tuned specifically for coding and agent workflows.
Anthropic shipped Claude Design in April, turning prompts into prototypes. We tried it on real TerraCode work, and found exactly where it stops, and where a designer has to take over.
