<ul>
<li><strong>TypeScript 6 prepares for a go rewrite</strong>: TypeScript 6 has been released, not as a feature-heavy update, but as a transitional step towards a planned rewrite of the compiler in Go. This rewrite, expected in TypeScript 7, aims to tackle significant performance bottlenecks in large applications. Developers are strongly encouraged to upgrade to TypeScript 6 to prepare for this major architectural shift, which includes enabling strict mode by default and updating module resolution to ES modules, as reported by Bruno Couriol. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/tiMDdyFcG" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Cloudflare R2 launches local uploads for faster performance</strong>: Cloudflare has introduced “Local Uploads” for its R2 object storage, now in open beta, designed to drastically cut cross-region write latency by up to 75%. This feature allows data to be written to the nearest Cloudflare PoP and then asynchronously replicated to the bucket’s home region, making objects immediately accessible. This approach, detailed by Renato Losio, aims to significantly boost upload performance for globally distributed workloads without additional costs. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XbGrpoJDs" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI agent security is a mess</strong>: Recent incidents highlight severe security vulnerabilities in AI agents, with a BBC reporter hacked via an AI coding platform and critical flaws found in the open-source OpenClaw agent, including remote code execution. These agents pose a ‘lethal trifecta’ of risks: private data access, untrusted content ingestion, and external communication, compounded by persistent memory. Traditional security models are proving insufficient, and current regulations have significant gaps, as evidenced by a FinTrust-AI project containing a backdoor. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=1HpSP7L9S&amp;id=1TelNKsBD&amp;id=9xLrRFK2b&amp;id=FuKqPJxtz&amp;id=Jm3weKMWA&amp;id=ZmcjIu8ai&amp;id=em7afQ5sm&amp;id=kdJWfknAe&amp;id=ohhVPexbM" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>OpenAI’s financial woes and altman’s energy claims</strong>: Sam Altman is out here dismissing claims of high AI water usage as “completely untrue” while OpenAI is reportedly facing $44 billion in cumulative losses before 2029 and key investors are pulling back. He also claims AI is more energy-efficient than a human, which is a bold statement coming from a company projecting such massive financial deficits. Maybe focus on the balance sheet before lecturing us on energy efficiency, Sam. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=95MvV75SN&amp;id=mGa3eARS3&amp;id=ogUHau6h0" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Google VP warns against ‘thin IP’ AI startups</strong>: Google Cloud VP Darren Mowry is warning that AI startups building “LLM wrappers with thin IP” are doomed, comparing them to early AWS resellers who got squeezed out. He’s bullish on “vibe coding platforms” though. So, if your AI startup isn’t just a fancy wrapper, but a <em>vibe</em>, you’re golden. Got it. Because a “vibe” is definitely a robust business model. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=8yc6ZDNd6&amp;id=WAm3NKS9B&amp;id=djwfpUzVm&amp;id=gX2zbD1Ji" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Anthropic clarifies ban on third-party tool access to claude</strong>: Anthropic has “clarified” that using third-party tools with Claude subscription accounts is banned, a policy that apparently existed since February 2024 but was widely ignored. This is totally not about protecting their revenue model from users trying to get cheaper tokens. Meanwhile, OpenAI is publicly endorsing third-party tools. It’s almost like one company wants to make money and the other wants to… also make money, but with less pretense. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/vOr3Aub97" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
