Amazon AI coding agent hacked to inject data wiping commands
A hacker slipped a wiper intoAmazon Qv1.84.0 via a dodgy GitHub pull. AWS revoked every key, nuked the rogue commit, then rolled outAmazon Q v1.85.0...

Pulumi ESC corrals secrets from 20 + storesâVault, AWS, Azure, GCPâinto a singleYAML config-as-codeengine. It spawns dynamic short-lived credentials and locks every action behind a centralized audit log. Existing secret stores stay intact. Retrieval hitssub-secondspeeds. Envelope encryption shields ..
The Gemini CLI on Windows bungled a failedmkdir. It flagged the error as success, then ranmovecommands. Files landed in a ghost folder and got overwritten. Data vanished. WindowsmkdirsetsERRORLEVELon failure.movetreats missing targets as rename directives. No exit-code checks. No read-after-write ve..
OpenAI set to launch GPT-5 in August, blending distinct models for versatile AI functionality. Watch for potential delays due to development hurdles or competitor announcements.Implication: OpenAI is shifting from "one model fits all" to a modular AI architecture. Expect future LLMs to act more like..
Over ten years, the legacy report page mutated from a locked-downSQLform. It ended up as a hidden console spilling raw database guts. Developers swapped hardcoded queries fordatabase-drivenreport names. They slapped ontimeouts,string filters, and warnings but skipped restoring safe defaults. Implic..

Terraform v1.5 debuts anexperimental flag,-generate-config-out. It grabs configs duringresource importand spits out raw HCL. Teams stash assets in animportblock, trigger the flag, then polish the generatedmain.tf. IaC onboarding feels like a sprint...
Scott Alexanderâs team argues that AI is aprofoundly abnormal technologyon track forrecursive self-improvementwithin2â10 years. They counter (AIANT)âs view (AI As A Normal Technology) of slow, regulated diffusion by showing thatLLMsare rapidly adopted in medicine, law, and software â bypassing insti..
An AI-powered dev workflow combinedClaude,Playwright, and aPostgres-backed REST APIto ship 2â3 features per day. But as complexity grew, multi-agent loops broke down, tests ballooned, and schema drift demanded increasingly precise prompts and manual corrections.The result: more time spent managing c..
Anthropic teamsfire upClaude Code. They automate data pipelines and squash Kubernetes IP exhaustion. They churn out tests and trace cross-repo context. Non-dev squads use plain-text prompts to script workflows, spin up Figma plugin automations, and mock up UIs from screenshotsâzero code. Trend to w..
