<li><strong>CanisterWorm hits npm registry with autonomous propagation</strong>: A sophisticated supply chain attack dubbed CanisterWorm has compromised over 29 packages across the @emilgroup and @teale.io namespaces. Socket researchers report the worm harvests npm tokens from environment variables to autonomously republish backdoors across all accessible packages. The malware establishes persistence via a systemd service and uses an Internet Computer Protocol canister as a dead-drop command center. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/crpaAf7jK" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>OpenAI pivots to enterprise superapp as Anthropic gains ground</strong>: OpenAI is reportedly consolidating ChatGPT, Codex, and its internal ‘Atlas’ browser into a single desktop superapp focused on agentic workflows. This strategic shift aims to counter Anthropic, which is currently winning an estimated 70% of head-to-head enterprise deals. The move signals a transition away from consumer chatbots toward high-value compute users and complex developer environments. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/8DNQjej2h" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>NVIDIA bets 4 billion on silicon photonics for AI scaling</strong>: NVIDIA has invested $4 billion in photonics leaders Lumenum and Coherent to replace copper interconnects with optical links in AI clusters. As copper hits physical limits regarding heat and signal loss, silicon photonics offers a 90% reduction in energy consumption for matrix operations. This hardware shift is expected to be more determinative of AI scaling than architectural improvements through 2028. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/8q86CzGA8" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>NVIDIA NemoClaw is just a GPU sales pitch in a trench coat</strong>: After Jensen Huang called OpenClaw the ‘most important software ever,’ NVIDIA ‘heroically’ released NemoClaw to fix its glaring security holes. Conveniently, this ‘open source’ security runtime is optimized specifically for NVIDIA hardware and pairs perfectly with a $4,000 DGX Spark desktop. It’s a classic move: create the problem (hype dangerous agents) and sell the proprietary cure (hardware-locked security). <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/JhMlhGtCJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>The DLSS 5 lighting lobotomy</strong>: NVIDIA’s DLSS 5 is being marketed as an ‘AI breakthrough,’ but developers are rightfully revolting because it flattens lighting and distorts character geometry to save frames. It’s essentially the ‘motion smoothing’ of the GPU world, sacrificing artistic intent for the sake of AI-generated hallucination. If your ‘graphics’ tool requires rewriting the laws of physics to hit 60fps, maybe the architecture is the problem, not the upscaler. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=BsIJ2t6dP&amp;id=P7dnxxeG8" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Vibe coding is just technical debt with a better UI</strong>: The industry is currently obsessed with ‘vibe coding’ and MCP servers that promise to make developers obsolete by ‘orchestrating intent.’ In reality, studies show experienced engineers are 19% slower when babysitting these agents, and 75% of autonomous codebases break within eight months. We aren’t building software anymore; we’re just generating high-velocity legacy code that no one actually understands. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=IusRVfD2s&amp;id=7sUJFgexb&amp;id=ZlLszXi7m" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
