Open-source software has become the backbone of modern development, but with that dependency comes a widening attack surface. The npm ecosystem in particular has been a high-value target for adversaries who know that one compromised package can cascade downstream into...
Artificial intelligence and related technologies are evolving rapidly, but until recently, Java developers had few options for integrating AI capabilities directly into Spring-based applications. Spring AI changes that by leveraging familiar Spring conventions such as...
One concern many users have about AI is that often their data leaves their PC and their network, with inferencing happening in the cloud. They have big questions about data protection. That’s one of the main drivers for Microsoft’s Copilot+ PCs; the neural processing...
Microsoft’s planned TypeScript 7.0 release, an effort to improve performance, memory usage, and parallelism by porting the TypeScript language service and compiler to native code, has made significant progress, Microsoft reports. A planned TypeScript 6.0 release,...
Developers using the React 19 library for building application interfaces are urged to immediately upgrade to the latest version because of a critical vulnerability that can be easily exploited by an attacker to remotely run their own code. Researchers at Wiz said Wednesday...

Mistral AI’s latest batch of LLMs, officially released Tuesday, includes Mistral Large 3, a 675-billion-parameter model. It’s the company’s first mixture-of-experts model since the Mixtral series released at the end of 2023, and already ranks among the top open-source...
AWS has released Kiro powers, an addition to the company’s Kiro AI-driven IDE that provides dynamic loading of context and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, with the intent of providing a unified approach to a broad range of development use cases. Announced December...
Enterprises are no longer asking whether they should adopt AI; rather, they want to know why the AI they have already deployed still can’t reason as their business requires it to. Those AI systems are often missing an enterprise’s specific business context, because they...
We all want to be thought competent by our peers—to have them think we know what we are doing. And for the most part, we do, right? But come on, let’s be honest. There are a few things that just make our heads spin. Topics that we kind of gloss over and pretend that ...
Once upon a time, IDEs focused on specific languages, like Visual Studio IDE for Microsoft C++ or IntelliJ IDEA for Java. But now there is a new wave of IDEs dedicated to agentic AI workflows. AWS Kiro has recently become generally available, and now Google has whipped the...
Node.js is one of the most popular server-side platforms, especially for web applications. It gives you non-blocking JavaScript without a browser, plus an enormous ecosystem. That ecosystem is one of Node’s chief strengths, making it a go-to option for server development....
Poetry can be a perplexing art form for humans to decipher at times, and apparently AI is being tripped up by it too. Researchers from Icaro Lab (part of the ethical AI company DexAI), Sapienza University of Rome, and Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies have found that,...

Does AI-generated code add to, or reduce, technical debt? Amazon Web Services is aiming to reduce it with the addition of new capabilities to AWS Transform, its AI-driven service for modernizing legacy code, applications, and infrastructure. “Modernization is no longer...
Amazon Web Services has unveiled a new class of AI agents, called frontier agents, which the company said can work for hours or days without intervention. The first three agents are focused on software development tasks. The three agents announced December 2 include the Kiro ...
Many organizations are experimenting with AI agents to determine which job roles to focus on, when to automate actions, and what steps require a human in the middle. AI agents connect the power of large language models with APIs, enabling them to take action and integrate...
Michigan and Wisconsin are considering proposals that would ban the use of virtual private networks (VPNs) by requiring internet providers to block these encrypted connections. The stated rationale is to control how users access certain online materials, but such a ban would ...
Imagine it’s 3 a.m. and your pager goes off. A downstream service is failing, and after an hour of debugging you trace the issue to a tiny, undocumented schema change made by an upstream team. The fix is simple, but it comes with a high cost in lost sleep and operational...
Qdrant has released Qdrant 1.16, an update of the Qdrant open source vector database that introduces tiered multitenancy, a capability intended to help isolate heavy-traffic tenants, boost performance, and scale search workloads more efficiently. Announced November 19,...

Researchers at Socket have uncovered more details of a sophisticated software supply-chain operation linked to the Contagious Interview campaign attacking developers who rely on packages from NPM. They report finding a “full stack” operation behind the attacks, where...
Success as an independent software developer requires a lot of preparation and hard work, as well as some luck. But as baseball executive Branch Rickey once said, luck is the residue of design. Income for freelance developers varies depending on factors such as location,...
