So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.
my first @sendcutsend project completed!!! custom angled bracket for a wall mounted bike storage
Here is a little tool I made to hopefully create the same style of multi-color print. The hardest part is arranging the parts together in place with BambuStudio's assembly tool. Make sure to export with "Per-part: ON" so you can reorientate each part.

i have a hunch that we'll create a new way of doing software, something like open source but not really
like if i buy your app i wanna buy your efforts that you put into making it what it is at that point
because i dont wanna vibe it from scratch it would take me time money and tokens to get to *your* point (unless you're making something ultra dumb that cab be oneshotted)
BUT after i buy i wanna fully own it and add my tweaks to it, while also getting "updates" (that an agent merges into my thingie, because my thing would stray away from the original)
idk how define this exactly but we're entering an era of hyper personalized software (at least for the nerds and tinkerers, not for normies)
Every new announcement adds another harness or framework instead of finishing the one they already have. This AI craze led the whole team to produce a sprawling catalog of overlapping tools ... none of them the clear answer a customer actually needs.

If you’re not reading the code, whether explicitly or through agentic inquiry, one or more of these is true:
○ You’re a beginner
○ Software is throwaway
○ You’re prototyping
○ You have no users / revenue
○ You’re taking on debt & risk
○ Your problems are basic
And btw. All of this is fine. But the reality is that models are still not at the “full autonomy” stage yet.
They make rookie mistakes, they go down bad architectural paths. I just had the best model in the world add a nonsensical 700ms delay to “settle” something and it told me “you’re right, I was cargo-culting” 🤨
I am on the camp that this need will diminish more and more. Most code is indeed going to be assembly-like. But we also have the global internet and software infrastructure riding on these models and narrative, and we have to respect that.

Here's a little CSS trick to make your text skeletons line-height aware
demo with @shadcn skeleton and @tailwindcss:

A common API design mistake I see often is making one getter mean two different things depending on the given parameters
Instead of having one method where “no key” means “return everything” and “has key” means “return one value”, split the intent into two methods:
`attributes()` returns all attributes.
`attribute($key)` returns one value.
This avoids a foot-gun: if `$key` is dynamic and accidentally becomes `null` somewhere, you don't unexpectedly retrieve the whole internal array/object
It also makes the code easier to read, because the method name tells you the intent, and each method gets a cleaner return type
Small API split, but much clearer behaviour and intent

📦 For those of you that don't know laravel-query-builder yet, here's the quick explanation: it can transform URLs to Eloquent queries.
In the example below, you allow specific filters, sorts, and includes. The URL drives the rest. Anything else throws a 400.
ALT Code snippet demonstrates Laravel Query Builder to apply filters, sorts, and includes for Eloquent queries, highlighting request handling.

Meet Datatype, my new font that turns text into charts. Available on Google Fonts and of course in Workspace.
Simple syntax like {b:10,25,7,95} turns into sparklines, pie charts, and bar charts that look great in your docs, slides, and sheets.
