Node.js v22.18.0 (LTS) is out

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.. read more

No, AI is not Making Engineers 10x as Productive

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.. read more

Anthropic Revokes OpenAI’s API Access to Claude, Alleging Violation Ahead of GPT-5 Launch

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 .. read more
