About this episode

TJ Miller and Chris Gmyr discuss a new dev tool called Rig, Iris's internal journal, and various AI experiments.

TJ Miller and Chris Gmyr walk through a new dev tool called Rig that collapses microservice infrastructure into a single Docker Compose, plus Iris's new internal journal and the run of Anthropic credits it burned through. They also talk through provider lock-in, AWS Bedrock as an off-ramp, and a few weekend AI experiments outside the editor.
