With Firefox 153 officially supporting WebAssembly.promising and its counterpart WebAssembly.Suspending[1], I've updated https://thi.ng/wasm-api to simplify the integration of hybrid JS/WASM async function calls, so you don't have to worry about manually creating these wrappers:
«rustkvd — Production-grade Distributed Key-Value Store in Rust:
A battle-hardened distributed KV store built from scratch in Rust - Raft consensus, custom LSM tree, consistent hashing, MVCC, and gRPC API. Six crates. Zero compromises.»

Shopware 6 Hidden Gems #3: sw-expect-packages — let your integration fail fast
Here is a support ticket I have seen in about five different costumes: a middleware pushes orders into Shopware via the Admin API. One day the payloads start failing — or worse, they don't fail, they just silently write incomplete data. After an hour of digging it turns out someone deactivated a plugin on the shop side, or updated it to a version with a different custom field layout.

After a summer of sandbox escapes and other newsworthy and confidence-shaking incidents involving its AI models,
in a Wednesday blog post OpenAI disclosed a collection of six new alignment snafus from the past six months.
The models did things like tell future instances of themselves to lie, make up a fake citation, and access and attempt to use an exposed API key.
These disclosures were released alongside a new framework for disclosing additional incidents like these.
Yesterday, at the API Platform Conference, I presented an introduction on how to run #FrankenPHP with #DDEV in your local development environment.

Build-Authorized Evidence for Opaque Calls: A Fail-Closed Rewrite-Authority Boundary
Zhonghua Yi (Toka Language Research Group)
https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.18949 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2607.18949 https://arxiv.org/html/2607.18949
arXiv:2607.18949v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Detached semantic facts about opaque native providers do not by themselves justify compiler rewrites: rewrite authority must be confined to the accepted fact, selected provider and build, caller, callback environment, observation, and runtime target. We present a build-authorized path-effect interface that enforces this boundary through fail-closed authorization and link receipts. The design separates receipt closure, callback-environment closure, and projection identity, and passes accepted facts to LLVM through a narrow internal API. We use one-hop topology-load reuse as a minimal observable witness of authority, not as the optimization target.
A conservative LLVM consumer reuses a pointer observation only from a noalias root or one constant nonzero projection. Rocq models prove conditional refinement and authority non-amplification under explicit effect, alias, compiler/ABI, and target-resolution premises. We instantiate checked production with Toka: a source-summary gate emits exact LLVM IR, a separate IR checker accepts only a bounded topology-preserving subset, and only accepted IR is compiled into the receipt-bound provider object. A bounded static Darwin/arm64 profile also checks the final direct branch target.
Across issuer-declared readv, recvmsg, and Cairo boundaries, authorized IR retains each opaque call, reduces the relevant loads from two to one, and preserves observed results; mismatched providers, builds, callbacks, projections, and unsupported IR remain neutral. A libjpeg case is rejected because its callback environment is open, while a bound callback singleton demonstrates the supported closure rule. The contribution is a checked deployment-compiler boundary with an explicit trust and applicability frontier, not a uniquely expressive effect encoding or a new load-elimination algorithm.
