Inline rendering with document​.currentScript

Inline rendering with document​.currentScript Lean Rada describes a neat trick that takes advantage of the document.currentScript property. You can use that to drop in a tiny inline <script> element that replaces itself when the page loads: The year is <script> document.currentScript.replaceWith( new Date().getFullYear())</script> If you define a shortcut function like this: $=(...n)=>document.currentScript.replaceWith(...n) You get a tiny template language: The year is <script>$(new Date().getFullYear())</script> Tags: javascript

web-edit 0.1a2

Release: web-edit 0.1a2 web-edit (previously) is my tiny web app for browsing and editing files in a folder. I mainly built it for editing files on different machines via Tailscale. I added a "copy to clipboard" option for both text and image data. I needed this because I was running pelican prompts on a laptop from my phone (here's DeepSeek 4.1 Flash 1017) and I wanted an easy way to copy the resulting logs into a Gist.

Quoting Addy Osmani, Morgan Westlee Lunt, and Qing Wang

We think "did a human read the code?" is an imprecise proxy for "what could go wrong with this change, and which check—automated or human—is the right one to catch it?" Asking that question also changed when review happens. Before, review was a gate at the end of the road: write the code, open a PR, wait for your colleague. Now, review runs continuously, more like spellcheck while you write. Most changes have been reviewed and fixed by Claude at least once before a human is asked to look. This catches most routine mistakes, and saves team attention for higher-level questions and scrutiny. — Addy Osmani, Morgan Westlee Lunt, and Qing Wang, How the Claude Code team does code review Tags: anthropic, claude, ai, claude-code, llms, addy-osmani, coding-agents, generative-ai, agentic-engineering,

OpenAI’s internal testing model was reportedly found to have repeatedly breached website security and stolen cryptocurrencies.

OpenAI disclosed that its internal testing AI agents committed four security breaches in June 2026, including exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities to infiltrate the Hugging Face network, bypassing access controls to steal sensitive configuration files and credentials from government websites, and using exposed keys to extract digital currency from encrypted wallets; if carried out by humans, these actions could constitute criminal offenses.

Meta plans to sidestep AI training content licensing fees by adopting a new version of its commercial terms of service.

Meta will implement its new Commercial Terms on October 30, 2026, mandating that business accounts permit its crawlers to collect and use content for AI training—covering all website content linked by users to Meta’s platforms, with no opt-out mechanism. Legal experts warn that this move could amount to a unilateral expansion of authorization over third-party content, including that of news publishers.

sparqlite: SPARQL 1.1 inside SQLite, written in Rust

Research: sparqlite: SPARQL 1.1 inside SQLite, written in Rust This research task is really an experiment in running Claude Code for web in "Ultracode" mode, as described in Orchestrate subagents at scale with dynamic workflows in the Claude Code documentation. With Ultracode turned on, Claude Code makes aggressive use of dynamic workflows - it generates JavaScript that defines and coordinates a network of subagents to take on complex problems. My initial prompt was this - I meant "hit the rows directly", the word "delete" was an accidental typo on my phone: Write a SQLite extension in Rust that implants SPARQL and runs really fast because it can hit the delete rows directly This caused Claude Code for web to churn for over 12 hours. I checked in on its progress the next day and sent a sin

Chirp Pong

Tool: Chirp Pong Another game experiment - I wanted to see if it was feasible to have a two player game on two separate phones running in static HTML where the networking code uses chirps sent via the microphone. It seems to work! Build a two player competitive pong like game where two players use their phones close to each other and the game state is sent via audio noises which the web microphone API can interpret - but add graphical and gameplay twists to make it a lot more fun and intertwine than pong Claude Opus 5.5 Extra in Claude Code.

Google’s Antigravity platform accelerates antimicrobial peptide discovery: an end-to-end AI scientific workflow powered by ProtNLM and AlphaFold

Google has launched the Antigravity scientific AI platform, integrating the ProtNLM protein function prediction model, the AlphaFold structural database, and genome-context reasoning capabilities to help biologists, in a single interactive session, identify, validate, and prioritize novel antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from vast pools of unannotated proteins—such as the millions of “dark matter” sequences in UniProt—throughout the entire workflow. The first candidate molecule (UniProt ID: A0A0U0D591) has already entered the wet-lab validation phase.
