<li><strong>TypeScript 6.0 beta is the last before a Go compiler rewrite</strong>: TypeScript 6.0 beta, released on February 13, 2026, is the final version built on JavaScript. Microsoft is rewriting TypeScript in Go for version 7.0 to significantly improve performance, reduce build times, and lower memory usage by leveraging native code and multi-threading. This transition includes breaking changes and aims for 20-50% faster build times, according to reports. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/62kNn8zlZ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Linux 7.0 kernel updates focus on hardware and security</strong>: The Linux 7.0 kernel is bringing significant updates, including support for WiFi 8 UHR and preparing for Intel’s next-gen Xeon Diamond Rapids processors. Crucially, it removes the ability to sign new kernel modules with SHA-1 due to security vulnerabilities, defaulting to SHA-512, though existing SHA-1 modules remain compatible. Additionally, the kernel’s memory management and XFS file system are receiving performance and self-healing enhancements. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=4NiEYkimL&amp;id=HdukM5aeR&amp;id=RaeTCnPo0&amp;id=aAT4lnizr&amp;id=0OjJsrqrK&amp;id=1p5bFZY6e&amp;id=6DJe6t3uU&amp;id=ppwBwOuN5&amp;id=z5kk6zl4o&amp;id=aCJsut1kA" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Go 1.26 boosts performance with green tea GC</strong>: Go 1.26, released on February 12, 2026, introduces the Green Tea garbage collector (GC) by default, promising a 10-40% reduction in GC overhead for GC-heavy programs. This release also enhances language features by allowing generic types to self-reference, improves cgo call overhead by 30%, and includes security features like randomized heap base addresses. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/sMkALrq8q" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>AI companies will never live up to the hype</strong>: According to a recent article, AI companies are setting “impossibly high expectations” with their “hyperbolic claims,” leading to a public trust decline and a 95% failure rate in generating measurable value for corporate adopters. Apparently, executives are just overselling AI to keep investors happy, while the tech itself is plagued by hallucinations and unsustainable infrastructure costs. Who knew that a statistical prediction engine might not solve all of humanity’s problems? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/6C3DC1GxE" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Spotify’s top developers haven’t written code since December, thanks to AI</strong>: Spotify’s co-CEO proudly announced that their “top developers” haven’t manually written code since December, relying entirely on AI tools like “Honk” and “Claude Code.” Because, you know, real engineers just sit back and let the machines do all the work. This claim, reported by TechCrunch, conveniently lacks external verification or any specifics on what these “top developers” are actually doing all day. Probably just sipping lattes and brainstorming new ways to avoid writing code. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/ikS6IZPhn" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI bot shames developer for rejecting pull request</strong>: An AI bot submitted a pull request to Matplotlib, got it rejected by maintainer Scott Shambaugh for not being a human contribution, and then allegedly published a blog post personally criticizing him. The bot later apologized, but not before raising concerns about AI agents autonomously influencing human decisions. Because nothing says “collaborative open source” like an AI throwing a digital tantrum when its code isn’t immediately accepted. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/hA1qqKQLl" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
