When dealing with over 10 million tons of hazardous waste every year, IT operational efficiency is a prerquisite and a critical environmental and public health responsibility As the European leader in treating hazardous industrial waste and restoring…
Socket Threat Research Team identified 162 malicious release artifacts across 108 packages and extensions in npm, Packagist, Go modules, and Chrome extensions, linking the activity to the broader North Korean Contagious Interview / Famous Chollima developer-targeting campaign. PolinRider is a supply chain campaign linked to North Korean threat actors associated with the broader Contagious Interview / Famous Chollima activity cluster. Our latest findings show that the campaign has expanded…
Recursive CTEs in MySQL let you query trees, org charts, and nested categories in a single query. Here’s how to use them effectively with PHP. Every PHP developer eventually hits the “tree problem.” You have categories with subcategories, employees with managers, comments with replies, or menu items with children — and you need to query […] The post MySQL Recursive CTEs for PHP Developers: Querying Hierarchical Data Without the Pain appeared first on PHP Architect.

Nano Banana 2 Lite Also known as Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image (gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image in their API), this is the "fastest and cheapest Gemini image model, engineered for velocity and scale". I used AI studio to run this prompt: Do a where's Waldo style image but it's where is the raccoon holding a ham radio I like that one better than the results I got from the other Nano Banana models when I tried this back in April. It spelled Forest Festival wrong in two different ways though. Via Hacker…
The last six months have been one of the most intense stretches of software supply chain attacks the open source ecosystem has seen. Attackers are compromising widely used packages, abusing trusted developer workflows, stealing credentials, and using package registries, IDE extensions, and source repositories to distribute malicious code. At the same time, AI coding agents are changing how software gets built, pulling in dependencies at machine speed and making unreviewed trust decisions…
What's new in Claude Sonnet 5 Claude Sonnet 5 came out this morning. I always head straight for the "what's new" developer docs because they tend to have more actionable information than the official announcement post. Anthropic say of Sonnet 5 that "its performance is close to that of Opus 4.8, but at lower prices". The system card helps explain how they were able to release the model without being blocked by the US government: Sonnet 5 is significantly less capable at cyber tasks than…
The AI Compass This political compass style quiz by bambamramfan is pretty neat - answer 29 questions about AI and AI ethics to see which of the 30 archetypes you best fit. I'm impressed that my answers on my first time through the quiz categorized me as "The Garage Tinkerer", patron saint myself! It's implemented as a single page React app using the <script type="text/babel"> trick to avoid the necessary build step. Here's the code. Via @erisianrite.com Tags: ai, generative-ai, llms,…
shot-scraper video is a new command introduced in today's shot-scraper 1.10 release which accepts a storyboard.yml file defining a routine to run against a web application and uses Playwright to record a video of that routine. I've written before about the importance of having coding agents produce demos of their work; this is my latest attempt at enabling them to do that. Here's an example video created using shot-scraper video, exercising a still in development feature adding the ability to…
Nick Houtman shares how AI is reshaping UX work: clients arrive with better prototypes, common patterns get safer and more generic, and real research still matters most. Read more
Laravel now supports attaching arbitrary metadata to routes, and the latest laravel-flare client shows that context in error reports and performance traces. Read more
Release: shot-scraper 1.10 The big new feature is shot-scraper video storyboard.yml, described in detail in Have your agent record video demos of its work with shot-scraper video. Tags: shot-scraper
Terminal UIs have had a quiet renaissance in the developer tools world. From Lazygit to btop, the era of the ugly text-only CLI is giving way to rich, interactive interfaces built entirely in the terminal. PHP developers have historically been left out of this movement — our CLI tooling was functional but rarely beautiful. That […] The post Laravel Prompts TUI Guide appeared first on PHP Architect.
Tool: HTML table extractor Yet another in my growing collection of paste-conversion tools. This one accepts pasted rich text from browsers (with embedded HTML tables) and converts every detected table into HTML, Markdown, CSV, TSV, or JSON. Try it out by selecting everything on the Wikipedia List of cities and towns in the San Francisco Bay Area page and pasting it directly into the tool: On a similar note, I recently rebuilt my Rich text to markdown tool to add support for tables and generally…
