Interop 2026: Continuing to improve the web for developers | Blog | web.dev https://web.dev/blog/interop-2026
We've already seen significant, targeted harassment campaigns online, where a small group of individuals control hundreds of unsophisticated sockpuppets. What does an AI agent-driven harassment campaign look like? This was just one runaway bot. https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me-part-2/

Meta Wants to Scan Every Face You Walk Past 👓🔴
Meta plans to add facial recognition to Ray-Ban smart glasses. An internal document says they timed launch during political crisis so civil society wouldn't notice.

I maintain pypandoc — 14M downloads/month, used by Adobe, Google, Microsoft, Apple, OpenAI and many more.
I just overhauled my sponsorship pages. If you or your company depend on open source infrastructure (you do), here's how to help keep it maintained:

Open source has a free-rider problem. You can be part of the solution.

- Lack of representation in software design.
Most FOSS is made by whoever is able to spare unpaid work and has the right tech skills to build it.
This often leaves FOSS devs under-resourced and thankless, rationing their time to deal with an avalanche of reported issues, prioritising what to fix with very limited resources.
If there was better representation of vulnerable groups in FOSS development and prioritisation, it might lead to better safety tools in software.
🧵 Thread - Part 2 of 7
- Users not being able to control who can reply to their posts
The Fediverse having thousands of independent servers is one of its greatest strengths (https://fedi.tips/why-is-the-fediverse-on-so-many-separate-servers) but also causes whack-a-mole problems when trying to block hate.
If users could pre-emptively restrict who can reply to their post, e.g. followers-only, this would prevent hatemongers from random unblocked servers posting nasty replies.

New Episode: How Fast is Fast?
Ben interviews Matt with a deceptively simple question: make my program go fast. 44 minutes later, robot dogs are falling over, Grace Hopper's wire makes an appearance, and Matt still hasn't gotten the job.

This is a very detailed and engaging read. The perfect combination of imparting knowledge and providing entertainment.
@m4ilerm4iler the Saboteur 
is a highly skilled penetration tester - a hacker and a burglar.
A company needed their building security tested and they didn't want to wait for an actual intrusion and break in. So they hired m4iler and his team to test it for them.
Nobody but leadership knew he was doing this. The guards didn't know he wasn't an actual bad guy. The cleaning lady didn't know either...
If you ever wanted to know what a real heist - not a movie heist - A real heist looks like... heck, if you ever wanted to learn how to do a heist yourself...
