Hack the World: Why hackathons are still the best place to learn to build (opens on the source site)
The barriers to building software have collapsed. Today, anyone can build. Hackathons are a great place to start learning. The post Hack the World: Why hackathons are still the best place to learn to build appeared first on The GitHub Blog.
Why In-Person Tech Conferences Still Matter (opens on the source site)
As we get prepared to meet again in Stockholm for the Nordic APIs Summit (this will be our ninth Summit), I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the importance of in-person events. Especially the importance of in-person technology conferences that get real humans together to talk shop. We all know the excitement, energy, ...
Are Standards Still for Humans or Agents? In Conversation With Lorna Mitchell (opens on the source site)
Ahead of her Nordic APIs Summit 2026 talk on API standards for agents, TM Forum’s Lorna Mitchell joins us to talk about how — or whether — agentic has changed what good API design looks like. There are those who believe that the rise of agentic API consumption will change what software development looks like ...
uv Python cheatsheet: what changed in 0.12 and what still trips you up (opens on the source site)
uv 0.12 changed several defaults that Python developers rely on—from how `uv init` structures projects to how hash checking and lockfiles behave. This practical cheatsheet tests the differences across versions and highlights the command-line traps most likely to surprise you.
Website monitoring in the AI era: What's changed, what's fixed, and what your team should still be watching (opens on the source site)
AI-driven website monitoring doesn't wait for thresholds to break; it learns what normal looks like and catches drift before users do. Here's what that shift means in practice.

Our CEO Eric Johnson and Caroline Fairchild on why humans still matter in the age of AI (opens on the source site)
For the launch of Today’s SurveyMonkey, our CEO, Eric Johnson, sat down with journalist and On New Terms Media founder Caroline Fairchild to explore one question: as AI becomes more central to how we work, what happens to the humans on the other side of our decisions? Here’s what stood out to us from the conversation – watch the full session below. SurveyMonkey research found that 83% of small business owners say customer feedback is useful, yet only 54% collect it more than once or twice a year. Belief isn’t the barrier, it’s time and process. Companies that never collect feedback are four…
Why a 40-Year-Old Database Is Still Winning in the AI Era (opens on the source site)
Why Postgres wins in the AI era: 40 years of reliability, extensibility, and an open ecosystem. Agents need trusted foundations, not fragile architectures.
Meet Today’s SurveyMonkey: AI-powered for a world where humans still matter (opens on the source site)
Humans still matter. Listen to them. This belief has guided SurveyMonkey since we launched in 1999, when we democratized human feedback. A self-serve platform with an approachable wide-eyed monkey logo, it replaced expensive paper surveys and telephone polls. For the first time, teams of any size could get feedback and better understand their key constituents at scale. Today, that belief is more urgent than ever. There is a growing expectation among company leaders that AI can solve their hardest problems. Teams are asking it what products to build, what advertising will work, how to increase…
Are REA’s Architecture Principles still relevant in an AI-assisted world? (opens on the source site)
Introduction At REA, we use a set of architectural principles to guide how we build and evolve the systems behind our products. My colleague Shane previously shared these principles in the article Scaling technology with architectural principles. Every year we review these principles, not because we expect them to change every time, but because we want to test them against the environment we’re working in now. This year, that review felt particularly important as AI-assisted development became a more visible part of software delivery. AI-assisted coding has quickly become part of day-to-day…

Should we still design code for humans? (opens on the source site)
A few weeks ago I attended the Future of Software Engineering event in Engelberg, Switzerland. As you might expect from an event that happened in the middle of 2026, many conversations revolved around AI engineering practices and coding agents. I encountered a range of points of view at the event. Some spoke about preferring to keep agents on a tight leash, reviewing their output line by line to make sure it’s maintainable, well-partitioned and everything else we’ve come to associate with good software craftsmanship. Others claimed they'd rather delegate the majority of the software…
Developers who move fast still need to do it together (opens on the source site)
At MS Build, Ryan is joined by Cassidy Williams, Senior Director of Developer Advocacy at GitHub and former Stack Overflow Podcast host, to discuss how agentic coding is shifting dev work towards higher-level strategy while increasing decision fatigue; why human taste, community feedback, and mentorship are becoming more essential than ever for developer careers; and the new GitHub Copilot announcements coming out of Microsoft, including the new GitHub Copilot app.
Symlinks Are Still Scary (And Yes, You Can Commit Them to Git) (opens on the source site)
Snyk ·
A harmless-looking symlink in a Git repo can redirect a tool into reading or writing anywhere on your machine. That old trick is now showing up in AI coding assistants, with nasty results.
AI RPG Migration Can Compile and Still Break Business Logic (opens on the source site)
AI-assisted RPG migration tools report high compilation success rates while silently failing on behavioral equivalence — packed decimal truncation, activation group persistence, and cycle logic. The benchmarks show why, and what a real accuracy test looks like. The post AI RPG Migration Can Compile and Still Break Business Logic appeared first on Strumenta.
Are tech speakers still relevant in the AI era? (opens on the source site)
Criteo ·
Author: Diana CibuPublic orators have played a major role in spreading knowledge and driving progress since the early days of oratory in Ancient Greece. I’ve always been fascinated by speakers’ unique ability to catch an entire audience’s attention and how they turn messages into valuable takeaways that stick with you long after their speech is done.If there’s one thing I’ve learned throughout my journey as a tech speaker is that knowledge doesn’t just depend on the message you want to deliver; Knowledge happens when you get people to hear it. This is even more true in today’s world. Current…
AppSync subscriptions: waiting for start_ack can still result in missing events (opens on the source site)
It seems like that when AppSync returns a start_ack message in response to a subscription start it won't necessarily mean that all future events will be delivered. Subscriptions are the mechanism to deliver real-time events from AppSync. It is based on WebSockets and its protocol is documented here. In the protocol, a client needs to send a start message with the GraphQL query to start receiving updates. Then AppSync responds with a start_ack if everything is OK and then sends data events whenever an update happens. Reading the documentation my impression was that start_ack is the moment when…
Human coders are still better than LLMs (opens on the source site)
Antirez ·
This is a short story of how humans are still so much more capable of LLMs. Note that I'm not anti-AI or alike, you know it if you know me / follow me somewhere. I use LLMs routinely, like I did today, when I want to test my ideas, for code reviews, to understand if there are better approaches than what I had in mind, to explore stuff at the limit of my expertise, and so forth (I wrote a blog post about coding with LLMs almost two years, when it was not exactly cool: I was already using LLMs for coding and never stopped, I'll have to write an update, but that's not the topic of this post).…
The Roottrees are (still) Dead (opens on the source site)
Last year I broke my elbow. This meant that I had to take a break from programming for about six weeks, and The Secrets of Skellig, my indie game, was put on hold. After a couple of weeks, I recovered enough to do some basic keyboard and mouse movements, and I stumbled on a free game called The Roottrees are Dead by Jeremy Johnston. It was exactly my kind of thing: a thinky game where you have to use your brain to fill in a family tree, based on results from a search engine. It was Her Story meets Return of the Obra Dinn meets The Case of the Golden Idol, and it consumed my free time for…
Nonsensical Maven is still a Gradle problem (opens on the source site)
There was a time when I used Maven heavily, but today all the libraries I work on build with Gradle. Even though I'm publishing with Gradle, consumers can use Gradle, Maven, Bazel, jars in libs/ (but please don't), or anything else. That's a huge JVM ecosystem win! In general, I don't have to think about what build system someone is using. I'm not here to debate subjective pros and cons of one versus any other. There is one notable exception, however. Maven's dependency resolution strategy is objectively bonkers. And if we want to support Maven consumers, we need to think about it. If you…
