A nasty SQL injection bug in Anthropic’s now-retiredPostgres MCP serverlet attackers blow past read-only mode and run whatever SQL they wanted. The repo got archived back in May 2025—but it’s far from dead. The unpatched package still racks up21,000 NPM installsand1,000 Docker pullsevery week...

Microsoft and academic researchers want to give AI models a new kind of home: theAI Model Virtual Machine (MVM). Think of it like theJVM, but for LLMs—an interface layer that standardizes how models plug into host software. The MVM enforcessecurity,isolation, andtool-calling rules, while also unloc..

Anysphere—the team behind Cursor, the AI coding sidekick—is looking to license user behavior data to the big model labs: OpenAI, Anthropic, and the usual suspects. Why? Training costs are brutal, and this could ease the burn. Strategic Implication:Selling real developer telemetry to model competito..

Anthropic’s sharpening the blueprint for building tools that play nice withLLM agents. TheirModel Context Protocol (MCP)leans hard into three pillars: test in loops, design for humans, format like context matters—because it does. They co-develop tools with agents like Claude Code.

If MCP integration and allow-listedPython executionare on, the document gets auto-pulled, parsed, and runs code. No clicks. No prompts. Justremote code exe..

Logical clocks trackevent orderin distributed systems—no need for synced wall clocks. Each node keeps a counter. On every event: tick it. On every message: tack on your counter. When you receive one? Merge and bump. This flips the script. Instead of chasing global time, distributed systems lean int..

Rich Hickey’s classic “Simple Made Easy” talk is making the rounds again—as a mirror held up to dev culture under pressure. The punchline: we keep picking solutions that areeasy but tangled, instead ofsimple and sane. The essay draws a sharp line between that habit and a concept from biology: exapt..

A fresh CVE (2025-55305) just put Electron apps in the hot seat. The bug? Chromium-based apps fail to treatV8 heap snapshot filesas potential attack vectors. That crack lets unsigned JavaScript slip past code signing and run inside heavyweight targets like Slack, 1Password, and Signal. The heart of..
