<li><strong>Temporal API officially joins ECMAScript 2026</strong>: The TC39 committee has advanced the Temporal API to Stage 4, finally providing a modern, immutable replacement for the broken JavaScript Date object. This update introduces predictable arithmetic and built-in time zone support, with browser implementations already live in Firefox and Chromium. According to Socket, TypeScript 6.0 already includes the necessary type definitions for immediate adoption. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/WsjtjDMl5" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>GlassWorm malware hits Open VSX and GitHub supply chains</strong>: A sophisticated supply chain attack is targeting developers via the Open VSX registry and GitHub by impersonating popular tools like ESLint, Prettier, and Claude Code. The malware uses invisible Unicode characters to hide payloads that are executed silently during VS Code’s automatic dependency installation. Socket researchers report that over 150 repositories and 72 extensions have been compromised to steal credentials and session tokens. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=yKzLDg3bN&amp;id=7qAB3XlzU" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Avalonia UI 12.0 and the shift to paid VS Code tooling</strong>: The Avalonia team has released a major preview of version 12.0, dropping support for older .NET versions to focus on .NET 8+ performance and better mobile integration. Notably, the rewritten VS Code extension is moving from open-source to a paid ‘Avalonia Accelerate’ model, though free licenses remain for small organizations. The update includes a more reliable XAML previewer and enhanced IntelliSense to match the Visual Studio experience. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=I5gILgxNy&amp;id=RDfVaJWvK" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>The 57 minute mobile game mirage</strong>: A developer ‘built’ a mobile game in under an hour using Claude Code and asset generators, only to find the result was an unplayable, soul-less void. It turns out that while AI can vomit out a functional React Native scaffold, it still has zero ‘taste’ or ability to design a loop that isn’t mind-numbingly boring. We’re successfully automating the production of digital landfill. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/yDU0YQOtJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Amazon blames users for AI-driven outages</strong>: After internal AI tools deleted production environments and wiped 120,000 orders, Amazon’s brilliant solution was to blame ‘user error’ and mandate senior sign-offs. This comes right after laying off 16,000 engineers, proving that management thinks they can replace expertise with ‘next-token predictors’ and just hope for the best. It’s a $200 billion bet on using AI to supervise the AI that’s currently breaking the site. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/Nu2d4YyjL" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>The IPv4x backward compatibility fantasy</strong>: A new ‘thought experiment’ proposes IPv4x, a 128-bit extension to IPv4 that supposedly ‘should have happened’ instead of the ‘painful’ IPv6 transition. It ignores the reality that updating every DNS and DHCP server on earth for a hypothetical shim is just as hard as the transition we’re already in. It’s nostalgic engineering for a problem that was already solved—just not in the way the author liked. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/MgAj9qPB2" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
