    CodeSOD: Contains Some Bad Choices
    While I'm not hugely fond of ORMs (I'd argue that relations and objects don't map neatly to each other, and any ORM is going to be a very leaky abstraction for all but trivial cases), that's not because I love writing SQL. I'm a big fan of query-builder tools; describe your query programatically, and have an API that generates the required SQL as a result. This cuts down on developer error, and also hopefully handles all the weird little dialects that every database has. For example, did you know Postgres has an @> operator? It's a contains operation, which returns true if an array, range, or JSON dictionary contains your search term. Basically, an advanced "in" operation.

The upgrade took a long time, too, as some countries were using the Julian calendar over 300 years from the official changeover, famously featured in the likely aprochryphal story about Russia arriving late for the Olympics. At least that change didn't involve adding any extra months, unlike some of the Julian reforms, which involved adding multiple "intercalary months" to get the year back in sync after missing a pile of leap years. Speaking of adding months, Will J sends us this "calendar" enum: enum Calendar { April = 0, August = 1, December = 2, February = 3, Friday = 4, January = 5, July = 6, June = 7, March = 8, May = 9, ...

    It's always good to think through how any given database operation behaves inside of a transaction. For example, Faroguy inherited a Ruby codebase which was mostly db.execute("SOME SQL") without any transactions at all. This caused all sorts of problems with half-finished operations polluting the database. Imagine Faroguy's excitement upon discovering a function called db_trans getting called in a few places. Well, one place, but that's better than none at all. This clearly must mean that at least one operation was running inside of a transaction, right? def self.db_trans(db,stmt) db.execute(stmt) end # self.db_trans Oh.

    Jon supports some software that's been around long enough that the first versions of the software ran on, and I quote, "homegrown OS". They've long since migrated to Linux, and in the process much of their software remained the same. Many of the libraries that make up their application haven't been touched in decades. Because of this, they don't really think too much about how they version libraries; when they deploy they always deploy the file as mylib.so.1.0. Their RPM post-install scriptlet does an ldconfig after each deployment to get the symlinks updated. For those not deep into Linux library management, a brief translation: shared libraries in Linux are .so files. ldconfig is a library manager, which finds the "correct" versions of the libraries you ha ...

Researchers from the Bank for International Settlements and the European Investment Bank used an instrumental variable strategy that matched EU firms to comparable US firms by sector, size, investment intensity and other characteristics, then used the AI adoption rates of those US counterparts as a proxy for exogenous AI exposure among European firms. The productivity gains, however, skewed heavily toward medium and large companies. Among large firms, 45% had deployed AI, compared to just 24% of small firms. The study also found that complementary investm ...

    Ohio Newspaper Removes Writing From Reporters' Jobs, Hands It To an 'AI Rewrite Specialist'
    Cleveland.com, the digital arm of Ohio's Plain Dealer newspaper, has removed writing from the workloads of certain reporters and handed that job to what editor Chris Quinn calls an "AI rewrite specialist" who turns reporter-gathered material into article drafts. The reporters on these beats -- covering Lorain, Lake, Geauga, and most recently Medina County -- are assigned entirely to reporting, spending their time on in-person interviews and meeting sources for coffee. Editors review the AI-produced drafts and reporters get the final say before publication. Quinn says the arrangement has effectively freed up an extra workday per week for each reporter. The newsroom adopted this model last year to expand local coverage into counties it could no longer staf ...

    Andrew Yang Warns AI Will Displace Millions of White-Collar Workers Within 18 Months
    Andrew Yang, the former presidential candidate and longtime Universal Basic Income advocate, published a blog post this week warning that AI is about to displace millions of white-collar workers in the U.S. over the next 12 to 18 months, a wave he has taken to calling "the Fuckening." Yang cited a conversation with the CEO of a publicly traded tech company who said the firm is cutting 15% of its workforce now and plans another 20% cut in two years, followed by yet another 20% two years after that. The U.S. currently has about 70 million white-collar workers, and Yang expects that number to fall by 20 to 50% over the next several years. Underemployment among recent college graduates has already hit 52%, and only 30% of graduating seniors have landed a job ...

    Linus Torvalds on How Linux Went From One-Man Show To Group Effort
    Linus Torvalds has told The Register how Linux went from a solo hobby project on a single 386 PC in Helsinki to a genuinely collaborative effort, and the path involved crowdsourced checks, an FTP mirror at MIT, and a licensing decision that opened the floodgates. Torvalds released the first public snapshot, Linux 0.02, on October 5, 1991, on a Finnish FTP server -- about 10,000 lines of code that he had cross-compiled under Minix. He originally wanted to call it "Freax," but his friend Ari Lemmke, who set up the server, named the directory "Linux" instead. Early contributor Theodore Ts'o set up the first North American mirror on his VAXstation at MIT, since the sole 64 kbps link between Finland and the US made downloads painful. That mirror gave developers ...

    Vermont EV Buses Prove Unreliable For Transportation This Winter
    An anonymous reader writes: Electric buses are proving unreliable this winter for Vermont's Green Mountain Transit, as it needs to be over 41 degrees for the buses to charge, but due to a battery recall the buses are a fire hazard and can't be charged in a garage. Spokesman for energy workers advocacy group Power the Future Larry Behrens told the Center Square: "Taxpayers were sold an $8 million 'solution' that can't operate in cold weather when the home for these buses is in New England." "We're beyond the point where this looks like incompetence and starts to smell like fraud," Behrens said. "When government rushes money out the door to satisfy green mandates, basic questions about performance, safety, and value for taxpayers are always pushed aside, ...

    Microsoft Says Bug Causes Copilot To Summarize Confidential Emails
    Microsoft says a Microsoft 365 Copilot bug has been causing the AI assistant to summarize confidential emails since late January, bypassing data loss prevention (DLP) policies that organizations rely on to protect sensitive information. From a report: According to a service alert seen by BleepingComputer, this bug (tracked under CW1226324 and first detected on January 21) affects the Copilot "work tab" chat feature, which incorrectly reads and summarizes emails stored in users' Sent Items and Drafts folders, including messages that carry confidentiality labels explicitly designed to restrict access by automated tools. Copilot Chat (short for Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat) is the company's AI-powered, content-aware chat that lets users interact with AI agents. ...

    Leaked Email Suggests Ring Plans To Expand 'Search Party' Surveillance Beyond Dogs
    Ring's AI-powered "Search Party" feature, which links neighborhood cameras into a networked surveillance system to find lost dogs, was never intended to stop at pets, according to an internal email from founder Jamie Siminoff obtained by 404 Media. Siminoff told employees in early October, shortly after the feature launched, that Search Party was introduced "first for finding dogs" and that the technology would eventually help "zero out crime in neighborhoods." The on-by-default feature faced intense backlash after Ring promoted it during a Super Bowl ad. Ring has since also rolled out "Familiar Faces," a facial recognition tool that identifies friends and family on a user's camera, and "Fire Watch," an AI-based fire alert system. A Ring spokesperson tol ...

    WordPress has started rolling out an AI assistant built into its site editor and media library that can edit and translate text, generate and edit images through Google's Nano Banana model, and make structural changes to sites like creating new pages or swapping fonts. Users can also invoke the assistant by tagging "@ai" in block notes, a commenting feature added to the site editor in December's WordPress 6.9 update. The tool is opt-in -- users need to toggle on "AI tools" in their site settings -- though sites originally created using WordPress's AI website builder, launched last year, will have it enabled by default.

    From the official Pytorch blog: We’re excited to share that PyTorch now leverages Pyrefly to power type checking across our core repository, along with a number of projects in the PyTorch ecosystem: Helion, TorchTitan and Ignite. For a project the size of PyTorch, leveraging typing and type checking has long been essential for ensuring consistency and preventing common bugs that often go unnoticed in dynamic code. Migrating to Pyrefly brings a much needed upgrade to these development workflows, with lightning-fast, standards-compliant type checking and a modern IDE experience. With Pyrefly, our maintainers and contributors can catch bugs earlier, benefit from consistent results between local and CI runs, and take advantage of advanced typing features. In th ...

    So recently Elon Musk is floating the idea that by 2026 you “won’t even bother coding” because models will “create the binary directly”. This sounds futuristic until you stare at what compilers actually are. A compiler is already the “idea to binary” machine, except it has a formal language, a spec, deterministic transforms, and a pipeline built around checkability. Same inputs, same output. If it’s wrong, you get an error at a line and a reason. The “skip the code” pitch is basically saying: let’s remove the one layer that humans can read, diff, review, debug, and audit, and jump straight to the most fragile artifact in the whole stack. Cool. Now when something breaks, you don’t inspect logic, you just reroll the slot machine. Crash? regenerate. Memory corr ...

    What does your "frontend" work actually look like day to day now?
    I've been doing "frontend" work for about 6 years now and I've noticed that what I actually do on a daily basis looks almost nothing like what it did even two years ago. Back then it was mostly React components, CSS, maybe some Redux, and calling REST APIs that the backend team built. Pretty clear line between frontend and backend. Now I'm writing server components, setting up edge functions, configuring middleware, dealing with database queries in my "frontend" framework, thinking about caching strategies, and recently even having to consider how AI agents will interact with the sites I build. Half of what I do would have been called "backend work" not that long ago. I'm not complaining, it's genuinely more interesting. But I'm ...

    Is anyone else having an exceptionally slow year?
    I've ran a web agency for 4 years now. This is the first year where I've been absolutely dead at the start. Normally I get flooded with referrals but nothing this year. I've run multiple ad types on facebook, and loads of clicks but no submissions to the lead magnets or anything at all!

    How do freelancers find their clients?
    Hi, I‘m trying to freelance right now but struggling to get clients. I just recently graduated my degree in computer science. Some of you may know that the graduate job situation in the UK is really fucked up right now. Right now I’m working at a warehouse, it’s the only job I could get. But I’d really like to be able to work as a web dev. I made a relative‘s website (spa services) for free and made my own personal website, so I have a small portfolio. I’ve been calling around local businesses offering my services , so far I’ve had two “maybe later”s and 50 rejections. (I’m trying to offer a subscription model because a lot of the local businesses said they can’t afford a website right now. My price is £50 a month with 6 months minimum.) I’d be really gr ...

I’ve applied to 50+ internships/junior roles over the past week but haven’t received responses yet only a few rejection mails and a few of them didnt move ahead with your application messages. I’d really love some feedback on my resume, specifically whether the issue might be my project quality or resume structure or maybe the volume of applications is too low...

    Best email platform for smtp vs api sending
    I got so many different answers that it's driving me crazy and I really need to figure out the best email platform depending on whether you send via SMTP vs API. I'm working on a product that sends a mix: transactional emails (password resets, alerts, receipts) some light bulk emails (onboarding, notifications) Is sticking with SMTP fine or fully moving to API sending make a big difference in: deliverability (inbox vs spam) reliability at scale debugging when things break rate limits / throttling surprises I see a lot of providers support both but what are you using in production and why? Are you still using SMTP for simplicity? Did switching to API really improve anything? Any platforms where SMTP was solid but API was better (or worse)? submitte ...

    Over 260k people installed fake AI assistant Chrome extensions that steal your data
    saw research on 30 Chrome extensions posing as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini helpers that actually exfiltrate your data. They use remote iframes to bypass Web Store reviews and can silently update behavior server-side. The Gmail ones are particularly nasty, they extract email content and send it to third-party servers (yeah its messed up). Several were even featured by Chrome Store. At this point I think they should just rebrand it to malware store. If you have any AI assistant browser extensions, i think its time to audit what you are running. submitted by /u/dottiedanger [link] [comments] ...

    Why Stripe webhook signature verification fails (and how to debug it properly)
    I've seen a lot of confusion around webhook signature failures. The error usually looks like: "Webhook signature verification failed" "401 Unauthorized" But the real causes are often: - Express body parser modifying the raw body - Timestamp outside tolerance window - Using SHA-1 instead of SHA-256 (GitHub) - Wrong webhook secret - Base64 encoding differences The most common issue I’ve seen is middleware mutating the body before verification. If you're using Express, make sure you're using: express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }) instead of express.json() for the webhook route. Curious: what's the most confusing webhook failure you’ve debugged? submitted by /u/navierstokes88 [link] [comments] ...

    Auto redirect tool for changing blog permalinks?
    I'm working on a client that has a super confusing link structure, and so many cannibalized links. I am hoping to update their blog permalink structure to include "/blog/" so that Google can differentiate the content from the services. Problem is, I tested this on a smaller client using the RankMath and Redirection plugins and it didn't catch the URL change to auto-create the redirects. This client has over 400 blogs to redirect. Any tools or recommendations for automating this work instead of manually running all 400 redirects?? TIA! submitted by /u/Inside-Gur-3001 [link] [comments] ...

Media

About all this

  • What's this page about?
  • This is a basic start page for my own personal use. Search, random links, lots of rss feeds all aggregated into one.
  • This looks awfully like Popurls!
  • As it should. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and this case is no different. I am not trying to reinvent the wheel, nor taking credit for anything which I do not have due.
  • Then why?
  • This was all an excerscise to further flex my knowledge and tinker with something new.
  • What was flexed?
  • Attempts were made at making a site which thought a bit about usability (although, probably an overload of information at this point) while being fully W3C valid XHTML 1.0 Strict, CSS which is W3C valid (except the hack used in the YUI Reset!), JQuery to drive the fancy stuff, and Python behind the scenes. At least... that was the goal.
  • The page uses skeleton.css along with media queries to give different viewing experiences for wide browsers("desktop")vs small viewing areas ("mobile"). Media queries were selected so one could easily jump between different modes. Some javascript has exceptions to not or to trigger when viewed on "mobile" browsers.
