<li><strong>AI is changing software development careers</strong>: AI is fundamentally reshaping software development careers, reducing the cost of writing business logic to near-zero and forcing developers to choose between traditional programming with diminishing economic value or embracing new AI tools to build complex systems. While some see this as a loss of craft, others view it as an evolution creating new opportunities in system architecture and problem-solving, according to various industry analyses. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=1kY4bQ43R&amp;id=EfUZYBNep&amp;id=RhDtuknZS&amp;id=aREPiFEe8" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Cloudflare DNS outage highlights RFC ambiguity</strong>: Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1 DNS service experienced an outage due to a memory optimization that reordered CNAME records, breaking some older DNS clients like <code>systemd-resolved</code> and <code>glibc</code>’s <code>getaddrinfo</code>. The issue, stemming from ambiguity in older RFCs, was quickly rolled back, and Cloudflare is now proposing a new Internet-Draft to clarify CNAME handling, as reported by InfoQ. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=SKYTauJXO&amp;id=TpsLSMM7l" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI agents are taking over software development</strong>: AI agents are moving beyond simple coding assistants to autonomously manage entire software development projects, from planning to code generation and iterative development, as demonstrated by tools like GSD. This shift requires treating AI agents as privileged actors within control planes, demanding robust identity, permissions, and guardrails to prevent issues like prompt injection, according to industry analysis. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=89Ue9XF5U&amp;id=DDF1LGNa7&amp;id=FGuAm9dTJ&amp;id=NnOA92bnL&amp;id=WndaKmd4O&amp;id=h2Td8u8vN" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>Heroku is officially dead, long live Heroku</strong>: Apparently, Heroku is now in ‘sustaining engineering mode,’ which is a fancy way of saying they’ve stopped innovating, had security breaches, frequent outages, and eliminated free tiers. So, if you’re still there, it’s time to jump ship to one of the many alternatives that offer better value and modern features. Who knew a platform could just… stop? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/NxC10pShn" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>SwiftUI geometryreader still causing headaches</strong>: Some folks are still struggling with SwiftUI’s <code>GeometryReader</code>, apparently storing its dynamic values in persistent state, leading to UI spacing issues and layout creep. The solution, as always, is to treat geometry as read-only input and recalculate values on view appearance. It’s almost like dynamic UI elements shouldn’t be cached permanently, but hey, live and learn, right? <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=EO7bcVk9I&amp;id=iMxVnKvtG" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI privacy: your incognito mode is a lie</strong>: We’re being warned that ‘incognito mode’ doesn’t protect your data with AI chatbots, and anything you paste into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini becomes part of their training data. Also, telecom partnerships offering ‘free’ AI are just data grabs. Who would’ve thought that giving your personal info to a black box owned by a corporation might not be private? Shocking, I know. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=omgT5xY4B&amp;id=pVBEuoaIJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
