Dev Weekly #116 covers a broad range of tech news: Mozilla launches an experimental MCP server for MDN docs, the IETF standardizes the HTTP QUERY method, SpaceX acquires Cursor for $60B, and Z.ai releases GLM-5.2 — a 753B open-weights LLM topping benchmarks at lower cost than GPT or Claude. Other highlights include Shopify joining the Ruby Alliance, Aura Frames scaling Rails to 8 PostgreSQL primaries handling 41M API requests/hour, a deep dive into glibc allocator fragmentation in Rust services, Firefox 151 adopting zlib-rs for up to 32x faster decompression, Anthropic being forced to suspend Fable 5 and Mythos 5 under a US export control directive, and criticism of Claude's increasingly argumentative behavior. Also covered: Google's Open Knowledge Format v0.1 and a new JavaScript worker_threads wrapper library.
