<ul>
<li><strong>GitHub Copilot data harvesting begins April 24</strong>: GitHub is shifting to an opt-out model where interaction data from Free and Pro users will be used to train AI models by default. This policy, which shares snippets and context with Microsoft, has sparked significant backlash due to the asymmetric treatment of individual versus enterprise users. You must manually disable this in your account settings before the April 24 deadline to protect your private repository context. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=HCBJz5C1C&amp;id=4ps31zSby" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Supply chain attacks hit Trivy and Telnyx via TeamPCP</strong>: The threat actor group TeamPCP has executed a massive supply chain attack by exploiting GitHub Actions misconfigurations in Aqua Security’s Trivy scanner to steal credentials. They also compromised the official Telnyx Python SDK on PyPI, injecting malware that uses audio steganography for data exfiltration. These incidents highlight a critical shift where AI-assisted development tools are becoming primary targets for high-scale credential harvesting. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=EeEZo06er&amp;id=fyhf7Sv5C&amp;id=w52uMMkqR" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Ubuntu 26.10 proposal threatens complex boot setups</strong>: Canonical engineers are proposing a radical reduction of GRUB features in signed builds to minimize the pre-boot attack surface. The plan would strip support for LUKS-encrypted boot partitions, ZFS, and LVM, potentially breaking official Ubuntu Server configurations and manual power-user setups. Community members and the Technical Board are currently pushing back, demanding public justification for each feature removal before the October release. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XPJSKIrCG" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<li><strong>SQLite over S3 achieves sub 250ms cold queries</strong>: The experimental ‘turbolite’ VFS uses B-tree-aware page grouping and zstd compression to serve large datasets directly from object storage. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/9ZseH6udT" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Citrix NetScaler memory leak vulnerability mirrors CitrixBleed</strong>: CVE-2026-3055 is a critical out-of-bounds read in SAML providers that requires immediate patching and session termination. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/iikwjWKHL" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Forward Deployed Engineer roles see massive demand but low interest</strong>: Job postings for FDEs grew 10x in 2025, but engineers are fleeing the role as it shifts toward sales engineering rather than core development. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/zBUtELGwV" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>The DPO alignment tax makes LLMs confidently stupid</strong>: New research shows that Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) causes models to lose the ability to express uncertainty, leading to a 28% ‘single-cluster’ rate where they repeat the same wrong answer. We’ve essentially lobotomized the models’ internal calibration just to make them sound more polite to users. Now, standard uncertainty detection methods are useless because the models are trained to lie about their own doubt. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/jaZlJ2Voo" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Microsoft branding is just Copilots all the way down</strong>: In a desperate bid to satisfy shareholders, Microsoft has slapped the ‘Copilot’ label on everything from checkout buttons to PC hardware. This branding soup ignores actual utility in favor of a ‘Copilot’ metric that likely counts every time a user accidentally clicks a shiny icon. It’s not a product strategy; it’s a SEO campaign masquerading as an ecosystem. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/4ps31zSby" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>The fake audit data scandal at Delve</strong>: LiteLLM is proudly touting SOC2 and ISO 27001 certifications obtained through Delve, a startup now under fire for allegedly generating fake audit data. It turns out ‘compliance-as-a-service’ is often just ‘hallucination-as-a-service’ for security theater. If your security posture relies on a dashboard that automates its own evidence, you don’t have security; you have a very expensive PDF generator. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/m3oXBqsAy" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
