<li><strong>Google’s Gemini AI faces IP theft and nation-state exploitation</strong>: Google blocked over 100,000 attempts to extract proprietary reasoning capabilities from its Gemini AI model, which it considers intellectual property theft. Simultaneously, Google’s threat report indicates nation-state actors are integrating Gemini into attack operations for social engineering, vulnerability analysis, and phishing. New malware families like HONESTCUE are even embedding Gemini’s API to generate and execute malicious code, bypassing safety filters. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/OQLlwLpSw" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>TypeScript 6.0 beta is the last JavaScript-based release</strong>: TypeScript 6.0 beta is the final version built on JavaScript, as TypeScript 7.0 will transition to a Go-based compiler. This move aims for performance improvements, while the 6.0 beta adds a <code>--stableTypeOrdering</code> flag for migration, <code>es2025</code> target support, new Temporal API types, and consolidated DOM library declarations. The production release of TypeScript 6.0 is slated for March 17, 2026. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=62kNn8zlZ&amp;id=vVvcWvIPI" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Linux 7.0 kernel integrates quantum-resistant crypto and performance boosts</strong>: The Linux 7.0 kernel is bringing significant performance boosts, including memory management optimizations, expanded audio support for Intel Nova Lake S, and hardware monitoring for ASUS motherboards. It also integrates ML-DSA, a quantum-resistant signature algorithm, for module signing, replacing SHA-1 support. The XFS file system gains autonomous self-healing and improved parent pointer performance. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=6DJe6t3uU&amp;id=Ukr75F53X&amp;id=Vay0ocYOF&amp;id=Vh5TboDqs&amp;id=m5L4rWAXQ&amp;id=ppwBwOuN5&amp;id=uGdXnDZH4&amp;id=xVcPYGmKq&amp;id=jIFDa9NtZ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>AI is making junior devs obsolete and turning seniors into ‘agent bosses’</strong>: Apparently, AI tools are eliminating routine coding tasks, making junior developers obsolete and turning senior engineers into ‘agent bosses’ managing AI assistants. Anthropic engineers claim a 50% productivity boost, and Spotify’s top devs supposedly haven’t written code manually since December. Because, you know, complex software engineering is just a matter of delegating to a chatbot, and human creativity and problem-solving are totally overrated. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=0wFgrbFqP&amp;id=78oOrNVDz&amp;id=B3N2Icy7Y&amp;id=BKJ8NHw6d&amp;id=DcSKM9BQA&amp;id=GManH4sq3&amp;id=GnwSkM7qk&amp;id=HHMxTl4yN&amp;id=JgHE2Ywe8&amp;id=MPMZLgvp3" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI hype continues despite 95% corporate failure rate</strong>: AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are accused of setting ‘impossibly high expectations’ with hyperbolic claims, leading to widespread disappointment and a mere 35% public trust. Corporate AI adoption has a 95% failure rate in generating measurable value, with hallucinations affecting 82% of legal queries. But don’t worry, Sam Altman predicts GPT-5 will be 2x smarter and 100x cheaper by late 2027, because past performance is definitely an indicator of future results, especially when it comes to AI hype cycles. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=1ssjvObXV&amp;id=6C3DC1GxE&amp;id=7qf6CcnTl&amp;id=KBiI9wOrx&amp;id=NO2cmpN4i&amp;id=PTlBRJtuz&amp;id=PryOnuBPQ&amp;id=Sfm1OU6it&amp;id=ZJJH0MAGc&amp;id=mcpWOltJw" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Hackers turn bossware against the bosses</strong>: A new threat actor is exploiting employee monitoring software and remote management tools to deploy Crazy ransomware and steal crypto. They’re ‘living off the land’ by using legitimate apps to evade detection, gaining initial access through compromised VPN credentials. So, instead of building sophisticated malware, they’re just using the tools you already have. Genius, right? Who needs zero-days when you can just use the boss’s spyware against them? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/ZxyPtzJpI" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
