Past session · Wed, Oct 7

A customer pays once. Your app charges them twice. Nobody told you this could happen.

Myles on the moment real money starts moving through something you built and what happens when a payment gets sent twice by accident, and what you say to someone staring at a spinner, not knowing if their money is gone.

What the hour looks like

No slides read aloud. A feature, built.

The session in three movements — watch it happen live, then do it yourself with the template.

app/api/ai/route.ts
// live: shipping an AI feature
const ai = new Anthropic();
 
export async function POST(req) {
  const { prompt } = await req.json();
  const stream = await ai.messages.stream({
    model: "claude-sonnet-4-6",
    messages: [{ role: "user", content: prompt }],
  });
  return stream.toResponse();
}

Forty minutes of live coding — a real feature on a real Next.js app.
