<li><strong>AI coding tools are a double-edged sword for security and productivity</strong>: AI coding assistants like Cursor are seeing massive adoption, with Salesforce reporting 90% adoption among its 20,000 engineers and double-digit improvements in cycle time and code quality. However, this speed introduces new security challenges, as AI-generated code often bypasses traditional AppSec controls, creating traceability and compliance gaps, as highlighted by Security Boulevard. Experts recommend a pre-commit governance model to enforce policies at the point of AI code generation, ensuring audit trails and real-time visibility. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=7KqSlBkW9&amp;id=4Q68q9tpN&amp;id=XkFn8TQqF" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>The EU is pushing for open source and digital sovereignty</strong>: The European Commission is actively seeking public input on mandating Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) adoption in the public sector to reduce dependency on non-EU software firms. This initiative, aimed at strengthening digital sovereignty, includes proposals for educational reform to replace proprietary software with open-source tools and providing funding and tax incentives for EU-based FOSS companies. This move signals a significant shift towards greater control over digital infrastructure, as reported by the European Commission. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=bi5i4eszo&amp;id=0rtpLEq0S" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI is straining global power and supply chains</strong>: The rapid growth of AI is putting immense pressure on global supply chains, particularly for power technology manufacturing, with semiconductor facilities operating at full capacity. This is leading to raw material scarcity and extended lead times for critical components, shifting from weeks to months. Solutions include building new manufacturing plants, automating processes, and regionalizing supply chains, as noted by industry reports. Meanwhile, OpenAI’s $500 billion Stargate datacenter projects are facing local opposition over electricity and water usage, forcing the company to commit to funding its own energy infrastructure and closed-loop cooling systems. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=SfHWr5lfZ&amp;id=O0VoWxWDb" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>AI will make you a 10x developer, or maybe just a 1x debugger</strong>: Apparently, AI coding tools are so transformative that they’re making basic coding skills obsolete, shifting focus to ‘broader competencies.’ Yet, the same experts warn that LLMs increase system complexity, making deep technical knowledge ‘more crucial.’ So, AI will both simplify and complicate your job, simultaneously making you a coding god and a debugging slave. Pick your poison, I guess. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=Bph7neqjl&amp;id=EHuoSn58k" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Netflix pivots to cloud gaming, because who needs original content when you have Boggle?</strong>: Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters declared cloud-based gaming a ‘major strategic priority’ for 2026, highlighting casual party games like Boggle and Pictionary as having ‘strong engagement.’ This comes after years of gaming investments and internal studio downsizing. So, after spending a fortune, Netflix’s big play is to become the world’s most expensive platform for games you can play on a 10-year-old tablet. Truly visionary. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/SBSWaa9fL" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI will eliminate immigration, says Palantir CEO, because robots can pick fruit now?</strong>: Palantir CEO Alex Karp, speaking at Davos, confidently declared that AI will eliminate the need for large-scale immigration in Western economies, except for ‘specialized talent.’ He also claimed Palantir’s AI can cut organizational costs by 80% and increase revenue, conveniently without any third-party evidence. Because nothing says ‘expert opinion’ like a tech CEO making sweeping societal predictions based on his company’s unaudited sales pitch. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=3s1vrBGbY&amp;id=FLsBFoZv3&amp;id=FWpexauJL&amp;id=KOoayUI82" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
