Deployments that Vercel automatically skips in a monorepo no longer count against your deployment rate limits. Teams with monorepos now get more deployments from the same limits. Vercel skips a project's deployment when its source code and internal dependencies haven't changed, using Turborepo's package graph and lockfile analysis to determine which projects a commit affects. Skipping is enabled by default for new monorepo projects. You can turn it on for existing projects under Build and...

eMudhra Intermediate CA Compromise This is very, very bad news: The private keys of eight eMudhra intermediate CA certificates have been compromised. They chain to roots trusted by the Mozilla, Microsoft, Apple and Chrome root programs and by many downstream trust stores. Any software that bundles a list of trusted certificates needs to be updated. This site is tracking software updates via this GitHub repository - Linux distros need to update their ca-certificates packages. In Python world...

What does the rise of AI agents mean for plugin development? And what new tools and APIs can help you build better plugins for JetBrains IDEs? These are some of the topics we’ll explore at JetBrains Plugin Developer Conf 2026, taking place online on November 10 at 1:00 pm UTC. Join us for a free […]

WebSocket support in Vercel Functions is now generally available. Since the public beta launched in late June, Vercel CDN has served 300 million WebSocket connections, and now serves 15 million per day. Customers use WebSockets for AI chat, streaming, and realtime multiplayer apps. WebSockets also power AI Gateway's realtime models. WebSocket connections follow the same limits and pricing as other Function invocations. With Active CPU pricing, CPU is billed only for the time spent processing...

My latest vibe coded game experiment is a Command & Conquer style RTS (Real Time Strategy) game called Battle Drones (play it here). Unlike my previous experiments, this one is actually fun to play. I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit that I got there by telling Claude to "Make it a LOT more fun". It also supports multiplayer between nearby devices using audio to synchronize game state! Here's what I've built so far, and some of the things I learned along the way. Battle Drones How I built...

Today we’re excited to announce the beta release of TypeScript 7.1! npm install -D typescript@beta Let’s take a look at what’s new in TypeScript 7.1! Support for Import Attributes in Ambient Modules Import attributes are metadata that are attached to import statements. Typically, they’re meant to instruct runtimes and bundlers on how to interpret the […] The post Announcing TypeScript 7.1 Beta appeared first on TypeScript.

What is Small Talk? Small Talk is our short Q&A with founders from the JetBrains Startup Program. They answer a handful of questions in their own words about what they’re building, why they started, and what they’ve figured out along the way. No pitch, no polish – just a two-minute read to meet the person […]

This is a charming and funny book all about the various ways humans have promoted fake medical cures in exchange for money. Despite the grim (and occasionally distressing) subject matter, the tone remains light and poppy throughout. There are lots of snarky asides (especially about the fake medical practitioners) and a real appreciation for the bizarre. It's fun the whole way through, although …

Mike Jackson wants the blind men and their elephant retired as a lesson in systems thinking, and his reasons are good. The parable's flaw is its narrator, who stands outside the world he describes and always has.

Left: SWE-Bench Pro, where each task is a single user message, almost always a new feature or a bug fix. Right: the first five developer messages in sessions of software engineers working in JetBrains IDEs, counting only sessions with at least three messages. Each column is a message position, colored Cblocks are request types, and […]

I’ve been mulling this over for about a year now. The developer landscape has shifted to the point where you can’t scroll past the news without seeing someone declare “I never open my IDE anymore” or “I do everything in the terminal.” And those workflows genuinely work for some people. But not for everyone. I […]

Cowbirds fascinate cow-bird watchers-and-listeners for in many ways. This 2012 study focuses on some of those ways in some of those cowbirds: “Effects of Habitat and Urbanization on the Active Space of Brown-Headed Cowbird Song,” Megan D. Gall, Kelly L. Ronald, Eric S. Bestrom, and Jeffrey R. Lucas, The Journal of the Acoustical Society of […]

With my previous post on “using the platform”, I was surprised that the comments on Hacker News and Lobsters tended to veer toward web components. This surprised me because I didn’t mention web components at all in the post. I was less surprised when I did some research and found that the entire…

Token Pass now includes DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, alongside Kimi K3 and GLM 5.3, each accessed through its preferred provider, with more models to come. The DeepSeek model uses the latest weights (1017). Token Pass is a $30/month subscription on Pro teams that grants $80 in monthly credit and runs through AI Gateway. Use it with any coding agent such as fx, Pi, Cline, Command Code etc. or build your own with the AI SDK, with Zero Data Retention enabled by default. Add DeepSeek V4.1 Flash from the...

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's almost Halloween! What're you going dressed as, if you celebrate? I'm going dressed as PHP code. (Terrifying!) We've got a ton of stuff to dive into this week, so let's get right into it. a nice article by Craig Walls called on no build MCP services with Spring and JBang Another nice post by Craig Walls: Decomposing Answers into Claims for Fact-Checking In last week's installment of A Bootiful Podcast, I talked to...

Open Liberty 26.0.0.11-beta adds workload identity injection and JWK rotation settings to the JWT Builder, makes the server quiesce timeout configurable on the server element, and previews a Netty-based HTTP transport.

My obituary for programming Jeremy Scheff poignantly captures the key loss caused by coding agents for career programmers who enjoyed the puzzle of developing code: Programming turned into one of the greatest jobs you could imagine. You got paid to work on tricky little logic puzzles. The trickier the puzzle, the more you got paid. But even pretty simple puzzles were worth a lot of money because regular people just couldn't do it! No, they needed us. They would give us a problem and we would...

Something funny happened a little while ago: I read about FreshRSS, and it sounded nice, so I installed it on a server and started using it. That would not have happened a year ago, but then again, a year ago I didn’t have any NixOS servers. For the past few years, my RSS feeds have lived locally on my phone only. There was a good idea behind that, but it never quite worked in practice. For one, many things are easier to read on a larger screen. But it was also brittle to trust a phone app...
