Node.js just got spicier. You can now runTypeScript files out of the box—no transpile step, no weird configs. It’s experimental, and only supports a trimmed-down syntax, but still: big move. Elsewhere, it’s tacklingburst fs eventswith AsyncIterator support, tightening upCJS/ESM cycle resolution, an..

AWS ECR is an OCI repository supporting different types of artifacts, from Docker images to machine learning models, allowing for simplified management and unified access. Users can interact with ECR using CLI tools like ORAS, Helm, and Terraform, providing integration with CI/CD pipelines for effic..

High-tech manufacturing used to employ 2.8% of U.S. workers back in 1990. Now it’s down to 1.3%. The sharpest losses hitcomputers, electronics, and aerospace—industries that once defined the future. Onlypharma and med devicesmanaged to buck the trend, adding 189,000 jobs while the rest bled over a ..

A search service (Marginalia Search) gutted its old index internals and dropped memory-mapped B-trees. In their place: adeterministic, block-aligned skip listtuned fordirect reads on NVMe SSDs. It runs on128KB block sizes, usescustom buffer pools, and leans hard onio_uringfor async position lookups..

A dev ditched Electric + PGlite for a lean, browser-native sync setup built aroundWASM SQLite,JSON polling, andBroadcastChannel reactivity. It’s running inside a local-first notes app. Changes get logged with DB triggers. Sync state? Tracked by hand. Svelte stores update via lightweight polling, wi..

A new LLM evaluation framework taps into an"LLM-as-judge"setup—think strong model playing human annotator. It gets prompted (or fine-tuned) to mimic human scores and rate outputs from other LLMs. It runs on a tightly labeledgolden dataset, handles both pointwise and head-to-head comparisons, and sh..

Claims of 10–100x dev speed from AI tools skip the hard parts—code reviews, bug queues, flaky tests. In practice, AI helps with the small stuff: one-off scripts, throwaway glue code, basic scaffolds. But scaling that help across big, messy codebases? Still a pipe dream. Too much context lost. Too ma..

Google’s AI agentJulesjust leveled up—out of beta and into full-on dev mode. It now handlesasynchronous tasks, pushesreal-time code updates, and can spin up pull requests with deeperGitHub integration. Under the hood: it runs on the beefierGemini 2.5 Promodel. AddsEnvironment Snapshotsfor state cap..

Generative AI databases like SingleStore now cramOLTP,OLAP,vector search, andfull-text searchinto one SQL-first platform. Structured, unstructured—it eats both. No ETL. No silos. Just real-time data, ripe for AI models and semantic queries. System shift:Blending transactional and analytic guts in o..

Anthropic just yanked OpenAI’s API access to Claude. Reason? Alleged violations of terms that forbid using Claude to train rival models—like GPT-5. Windsurf, an OpenAI acquisition target, got the boot earlier too. Spot the pattern: tighten access, box out competitors. System shift:APIs aren’t just ..
