Representatives from the community, the core contribution team, and sponsors comprise this team to provide guidance and insight into the Foundation's objectives and initiatives. After a unanimous decision, we are incredibly pleased to be adding Anne McCarthy, Architect and Open Source Director for Automattic, to our Board as a…

Don't be a meat proxy

Don't be a meat proxy Niklas Gruhn coins an excellent new term - meat proxy - for people who blindly copy and paste the output of AI systems to their peers. By all means, prompt AI. But don't just relay the output. Read it, understand it, validate it, and then write a response in your own words (a decent certificate that you've done the prior steps). Making that effort is value you can add. Via Lobste.rs Tags: definitions, ai, generative-ai, llms, ai-misuse

Devtools must be open source (exe.dev)

My comment on Devtools must be open source (exe.dev) — Hacker News.One of the arguments for open source software for end-users has always been the freedom to examine and modify how that software works. The reality for most people - even expert programmers - has been that the freedom is more about being able to lean on other people to do that. Most people can't justify the time commitment needed to read and then modify the code for tools they use very often. I think LLMs have changed that…

condense-json 1.1

Release: condense-json 1.1 After shipping condense-json 1.0 I started integrating it into LLM, and found there were some desirable new features already: Replacements object can now include values other than strings. These will be identified and used as structural replacements by condense_json() and uncondense_json(). #8 Objects can be used as the basis for merge operations. condense_json() will identify if there are objects that are a close match and will store instructions for keys to update…

Kicking off the PHP Onboarding Initiative Special Interest Group

Kicking off the PHP Onboarding Initiative Special Interest Group

One of the most common pieces of feedback we hear from the PHP community is that the newcomer experience could use some improvement, and that we may be losing new users because of it. This is something that we as a community can address, and it's why The PHP Foundation made it part of our strategy document for the rest of 2026. Improving that experience matters a lot to us, because a better new user experience means more community growth and retention. We are launching the PHP Onboarding…

condense-json 1.0

Release: condense-json 1.0 I'm trying to get braver at releasing 1.0 versions. This little library is a year and a half old now - I've applied some sensible and non-disruptive fixes and shipped the big 1.0 for it. Here's an example of what it can do, lifted from the README: { "foo": { "bar": { "string": "This is a string with foxes in it", "nested": { "more": ["Here is a string", "another with foxes in it too"] } } } } Combine that with a replacements object: {"1": "with foxes in it"} And…

Open letters about AI development

Open letters about AI development I wrote this summary of the past few weeks of open letters as a section of my sponsors-only newsletter but I've decided to share it here as well. Open Weights and American AI Leadership was shepherded by Microsoft, dated July 24th, and signed by 235 AI-adjacent companies including NVIDIA, Amazon, Y Combinator, The Linux Foundation and (a later signer) OpenAI. It's clearly an argument designed to counter any instincts by the current US government to ban or limit…

Quoting Greg Brockman

at openai, many people hook their chatgpt up to slack. people really don't like when a coworker's chatgpt contacts them asking for help with a task, even when they'd be perfectly happy doing that same work if asked by that coworker. reinforces how much people care about human relationships and helping each other, and want AI to give time back — or enhance time together — rather than become a layer separating people. — Greg Brockman, President and Co-Founder, OpenAI Tags: ai-ethics,…

datasette-apps 0.2a0

Release: datasette-apps 0.2a0 Changes that improve Datasette Apps when created and edited using Datasette Agent: New app_debug() tool allowing agent to open an app (invisibly) and test it using JavaScript. #33 New app_list() tool for listing apps the user has permission to edit, so the agent can edit them. #36 The app_debug() tool is pretty neat: it works by displaying the app in a opacity: 0 iframe with pointer-events: none (so it can't be seen or interacted with) and then executing…

Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science

Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science A few days ago it was Anthropic discovering cryptographic weaknesses with Claude using Mythos Preview, spending $100,000 on tokens and with prompts that included "again we are not looking for low hanging fruit, we want proper research to find genuinly hard findings." Now it's OpenAI's turn to flex. They set "an internal version of Astra, our next major model" on finding solutions to ten mathematical problems that "have seen no…
