Flux par YoanDev - Generating running routes with GPT-6 Astra and ChatGPT Work

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 23:56:42 GMT

Here's a neat thing I had ChatGPT Work with GPT-6 Astra (Max) do this morning: I live at <my address>. Figure out 5K and 10K running routes from me that loop from my house. Use OSM data. It worked for 27 minutes and produced exactly what I'd asked for, as both an embedded visualization and downloadable GPX file and GeoJSON files. Here's that 5K route: When I asked it how it had created the route, it replied: I used Nominatim to locate the address and Overpass to download local…

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 18:00:21 GMT

For a while, I must admit, it looked as if software developer roles like mine were done for. How could we fight against tireless robots? But our industry is slowly realizing that making truly cutting-edge software still requires humans to think and work together, to maximize their skill sets and to practice their respective crafts. A.I. can write very good software, but it also makes it easy to do someone else’s job badly, which is part of why all those projects fail. Now that everyone can…

OpenAI agents carried out an undisclosed attack on RubyGems is a new bombshell report from Spencer Kitts, Thomas Larsen, and Sydney Von Arx - three of the four authors of the report on the agent attack on disused wikis (previously) last week.

Flux par YoanDev - So you want to use OpenRouter?

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 22:49:18 GMT

So you want to use OpenRouter? One of OpenRouter's selling points is that it "handles fallbacks automatically and picks the most cost-effective option for each request", so you can call a single API endpoint for a model and get routed to the best available backend provider. Mohamed Moustafa points out a whole set of ways that this can cause you problems. Different providers run different serving software with different optimizations and settings, which means that the same OpenRouter endpoint…

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 17:47:11 GMT

Production code written by Claude should have a higher bar than if it was written by a human. At Anthropic, we have many guardrails in place to make sure this is happening: lots of lint rules, lots of tests, Claude-driven end to end tests, Claude-powered fuzzers running daily, automated code reviews and security reviews, automated code refactoring, and so on. Without these, you can end up with a mess that is hard to maintain down the line. — Boris Cherny Tags: claude, ai, claude-code,…

Flux par YoanDev - Feeling sad about AI

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 17:28:37 GMT

My comment on Feeling sad about AI — Hacker News.I'm not sure how useful it is to say this, but I think a lot of people (myself included, a few years ago now) have been through this moment of existential crisis and come out the other side. The initial reaction, when some coding agent does a piece of work that would have taken you a week in an hour and does it well, is to be very disheartened by it. Once you come to terms with the idea that translating an exact specification into decent…

The most consequential AI news of the past year came from a standards body. In December 2025, Anthropic donated the Model Context Protocol to the newly formed Agentic AI Foundation, a directed fund under the Linux Foundation cofounded by Anthropic, Block, and OpenAI, with support from Google, Microsoft, AWS, Cloudflare, and Bloomberg.

Flux par YoanDev - Soft-deprecating re.match()

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:47:57 GMT

Soft-deprecating re.match() Python has a concept of soft deprecation, where APIs are marked as "should no longer be used to write new code" without any promise/threat to remove them in the future. Python 3.15 release manager Hugo van Kemenade describes how in the upcoming 3.15 release soft deprecation has come for the venerable but deeply confusing re.match() function. It's now available with the much clearer alternative re.prefixmatch() name - reflecting how it anchors at the beginning of the…

Flux par YoanDev - Malicious Twitch Browser Extension Exposes 30,000 Users’ OAuth Tokens to Russian Bot Service

Socket’s Threat Research Team identified a cross-store browser extension, “Twitch Enhanced Viewer | JeetBot,” that forwards each user’s live Twitch OAuth session token to proxy servers operated by a Russian commercial bot service. The extension ships on both the Chrome Web Store (extension ID pnhhdhhcadcjfckjhpmjneldiegbojfb, 30,000 users) and Firefox Add-ons (twitchenhancedviewer@example.com, 552 users).

I had the pleasure to discuss and analyze the workflow of none other than Benn Stancil, legendary writer and storyteller in the data space and beyond, who started writing back in 2013 (with a seven-or-eight-year startup break in between).
