GitHub Copilot charges $19/month and sends your entire codebase to Microsoft's servers. You can build something better — one that knows your whole project, costs $0/month after hardware, and never phones home.

CVE-2026-33032, dubbed MCPwn, is a CVSS 9.8 authentication bypass in nginx-ui's MCP integration that lets any attacker on the internet restart your Nginx server, rewrite your configs, and intercept all traffic -- in two HTTP requests, no credentials required. Roughly 2,700 instances are exposed.
Linux
Back in February 2026, Linus Torvalds rejected the entire MMC subsystem pull request for Linux 7.0, calling it "complete garbage" and "untested crap" because it didn't build properly and bypassed linux-next. Linux 7.1 gets it right.

BlueHammer is an unpatched, publicly released Windows local privilege escalation exploit that chains Microsoft Defender's update workflow, Volume Shadow Copy, Cloud Files callbacks, and opportunistic locks to reach NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM from a standard user account.

Anthropic quietly rolled out identity verification for Claude subscriptions, asking for passports and live selfies via third-party vendor Persona. ChatGPT and Gemini require neither. Here's why this decision is a mess, who's actually affected, and what Persona's track record means for your data.
Artificial intelligence
ChatGPT. Claude. GitHub. All of them went down — repeatedly — and it's not a coincidence. AI agents are generating traffic at a scale human developers never could, and the infrastructure holding up your entire dev workflow was never designed for this.

I use AI as a tool. I'll say that upfront. Claude helps me write frontends faster. It handles search queries that Google stopped being useful for three years ago. I hand it boilerplate I've written by hand a thousand times and I get time back. That&

Anthropic's $1.5M donation seeds a $10M Responsible AI Initiative at the Apache Software Foundation. That's more than half of ASF's entire annual budget in one shot — which tells you everything about how badly the open source infrastructure powering AI has been underfunded.
