Sad to see the end of BioWare - a lot of fond memories playing KotoR and ME. The TOR and ME2/3 soundtracks are still focus session staples. So today, let's remember Mass Effect's central theme: together, we can accomplish what no one could achieve alone youtube.com/watch?v=wRoCX6TI…

It has been a day. I think I'm finally done with allowing my team to use environment variables for credentials.
Lock your doors, folks. It's going to keep getting worse.

Working on new docs for @mongoosejs 👇 Existing Mongoose docs overemphasize the API reference section, which were the most viewed pages pre LLMs. Now we're spending less effort on API docs and more on guidance and recommendations.
Adding a new guide about using indexes in production to mongoosejs.com Covers: - When to add indexes and when not to - autoIndex in production - syncIndexes in production And a whole lot more. Take a look and let us know what you think: github.com/Automattic/mongoo…

Getting some good use out of that Mongoose Studio Vercel MCP integration The script UI also comes with a Dry Run mode for added confidence - run the whole script in a transaction then abort.
Secure MCP access to production with final user review for scripts that modify data. Directly from your agent.😎

It works! Hardest part was navigating the distinction between Vercel API router (/api) and Next.js pages router deployed on Vercel (/pages/api) Client uses Vercel API router but most docs are for pages router. Plus API router doesn't support route params

We ran the latest Open Market pod with @joe_zappa and @ericfranchi through our animation AI to explain itself in a 2 min highlight reel. It clips! It slops! It's tip-top clip-slop!
Opus 5.5 is bringing "CTV advertising for SMBs" much closer to reality. But you still need adtech to get the ads right. @This_Liss and @BishPlsOk walk @ericfranchi and me through it on Open Market today. Check it out.

Goal for today: @mongoosestudio_ MCP working on @vercel 👍
Big news: Mongoose Studio v0.6.0 comes with a built-in MCP server. Give agents access to MongoDB with RBAC, OAuth, query timeouts, and script review URLs. Learn more 👉 mongoosestudio.app/changelog…

Performance optimization often boils down to searching for unnecessary work Then I wonder which kook wrote that code, check git blame... yep it was me `Array.from(arguments)`... probably trying to ensure consistent array but also support Node v4? github.com/mongoosejs/kareem…

Huge news! First time a former MeanIT Software client acquires another one 🎉
Experts from Oso have joined Temporal to accelerate our work on AI agent security. Welcome to the team! As agents move money and call other agents, access decisions have to hold at every handoff, even through crashes and retries. Read more: pulse.ly/mvto9zp5me

Considering switching Mongoose from Sift to Mingo for MongoDB query implementation. Sift looks to be unmaintained. On the other hand I found a small bug in Mingo - good test to see how active Mingo's maintenance is 👀github.com/kofrasa/mingo/pul…

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to @acutmore from @TechAtBloomberg on advancing the Composites proposal to Stage 2 at @TC39 today 🎉 Composites are objects that are compared by value instead of identity. They are an evolution of Record & Tuple proposal.

Cooking up a custom-scoped MCP integration. Explicitly tell Mongoose Studio what permissions you want to give your LLM.

Controversy around computer-generated math proofs has around for many decades Four color theorem (1976) is the classic example - still debated today But the first prominent case of someone disproving a conjecture via computer program happened in 1967 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common…
