Hello fellow developer, it is so much fun right now to record tons of Coffee with Developers episodes with prospective presenters of the WeAreDevelopers World Congress. We have four months to go, and there is so much to look forward to. In addition to that, we keep finding excellent resources to give you here, so have a look to learn about agentic workflows, AI skills and how the Linux foundation is putting lots of money behind defending open source projects against AI slop pull requests. But first, we came up with a new CODE100 challenge for you to solve and apply to be a part of the show in July:

CODE100 puzzle: A chart explosion

We wanted to show you some data insights about the WeAreDevelopers World Congress speaker submissions, but things went very wrong and our bar charts exploded…
Can you use your coding skills to recover the information and find out what values the bar charts displayed before they got rotated, shifted and zoomed? It'll take some digging into your old trigonometry skills, but we believe in you. Solve the challenge and apply as a CODE100 challenger and maybe we see each other on stage in July in Berlin.

Why Testing Matters in AI  - Luise Freese and Elio Struyf

In a world of vibe coding and fire-and-forget app creation using AI it may feel that testing has taken a back seat, but it is still an amazingly important skill to master if you want to release products that scale, deliver and - above all - work for your end users. We sat down with Luise Freese and Elio Struyf who are proposing to run a master class at the WeAreDeveloper World Congress explaining why testing matters in a world of AI.

What's happening in AI

  • Telling an AI model that it’s an expert programmer makes it a worse programmer
  • Claude Code Cheat Sheet
  • AI-generated code will become as invisible as assembly
  • Agentic workflows: The future of intelligent automation
  • Claude picks the first idea that works. Make it pick the best one.

Security and Privacy

  • Linux Foundation announces $12.5 Million in Grant Funding OSS Security
  • What a security audit of 22,511 AI coding skills found lurking in the code
  • 555 MCP Servers Have Toxic Data Flows. Here's What We Found.
  • US, Germany, Canada disrupt botnets that infected millions of devices
  • Chrome Extension "Save Image as Type" Was Hijacked, 1 Million Users at Risk

Software Development

  • Source Maps: Shipping Features Through Standards
  • Rewriting 130K Lines from React to Svelte in Two Weeks - Svelte Best practices
  • The bottleneck has shifted from writing code to integrating it
  • Why Node.js needs a virtual file system
  • The Three Pillars of JavaScript Bloat

Tips, Tricks and Tools

  • Turn dead links into smart redirects for AI agents
  • The first UI framework for the agentic era
  • Development skills for AI coding agents
  • Pompelmi Local-first file upload scanning for Node.js.
  • Meta’s Manus launches ‘My Computer’ to turn your Mac into an AI agent

Procrastination corner and Wonderful Weird Web

  • Global Petrol Prices
  • Welcome to AMOU — a map of memories.
  • A free font based on the historical eye charts and optotypes used by opticians

Career and Culture:

  • Stop Counting Tokens. Start Counting Tasks.
  • Openclaw is a great movement, but dead product. what's next?
  • Why your next mobile app is probably headless
  • If you thought the speed of writing code was your problem - you have bigger problems
  • Does splitting work across AI agents actually save time? I tested it.
Are you looking for opportunities or fancy a change?
