The PHP critical remote exploits details and patches are out: php.net/index.php#2026-10-20… Under version 8, you can reduce your exposure with some settings but it's far from ideal

Here's a smart home demo with @typesafeai and super nice explanations by @allietheicon They call the pattern shown in this video Speculative Fan-out: Send a long list of questions, get the answers in one go. It's fast and typed so you can use the response in your code with confidence. I can’t wait to get my hands on it, well done guys!
After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free) • Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution

One chat to drive all your coding agents Starting with Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor and OpenCode.

Having diffs in Slack was not on my bingo card
Don’t code alone. Slack Code is live. Humans and agents. Same channel. Same work. Launching today with agents from @AnthropicAI, @github, @Cognition, and @vercel. This is real multiplayer coding. See it at @Dreamforce #DF26

I've run 25+ events for @anthropic this year, but this one is not one of them: Buzz London 01 - Burger edition. @Hello_World @tlongwell_bzz : Do you know any beekeepers living in London? luma.com/xc82392r But why am I buying burgers for strangers out of my own pocket?🧵

When should you use Gemini 3.6 Flash or Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite? ... In a fantasy world where DeepSeek V4 and GPT 5.6 Luna don't exist?

When OpenAI is shipping your last week's features... ...but you can plug in any model, including your local favorites 🙌 Whether with Alter or ChatGPT, you'll love the picture-in-picture mode. It's the best way to stay in control while an AI agent works on your behalf on your computer. This is especially useful when exploring Computer Use capabilities. Stop it immediately and steer it before catastrophic failures happening.
OpenAI upgraded Computer Use for ChatGPT Work with picture-in-picture mode and faster execution. So users can see what it is doing 👀 h/t @AriX

Understanding the code is ownership. This is a great writeup on patterns a dev can use to avoid drowning in diffs. On my side, I have two scheduled actions: 1. At the end of the day, a wrap-up of the most significant things that happened in the codebase 2. The next morning, a quiz to ensure I fully grasped the changes and their meaning. If I'm wrong, I'm quizzed again the next day until I get it. My previous flow was generating HTML reports with charts, but the micro-worlds idea is much better. Well done @geoffreylitt!
Hot take: I think it's still important to understand the code that our agents write! In this mega thread (based on my AIE talk today), I will explain why that's the case, and show some ideas for how to efficiently understand code. Alright, let's dive in. 1/

Guys, if you want both the perfect monitor for your mac device and the perfect AI assistant for macOS, you know what to do. We partnered with BenQ to offer 3 months free of @alterhq_ if you buy the new MA320UG monitor, a 32" 4K matching your macbook colors. Thanks @BenQAmerica !
