A civil action was brought against a minor defendant in Alberta after a dispute over a toy dinosaur resulted in a serious injury to the plaintiff’s finger. The court found no liability on the part of the defendant’s parents, who were not supervising, or the defendant himself, citing the incident as an accidental “fluke” injury. The plaintiff’s lack of medical records also contributed to the court’s decision.

The concept of the “accessibility unicorn” is often dismissed as unrealistic. However, the issue lies not in the existence of such individuals, but in the unrealistic expectations placed upon them, including inadequate budgets, limited resources, and a lack of a long-term strategy.

The creation of a dedicated accessibility stage at CES 2023 led to poor coverage of accessibility products and innovations. This segregation risks creating “accessibility ghettos” of inferior, expensive products and hinders mainstream media’s understanding of accessibility in mainstream technology. The author advocates for integrating accessibility into the mainstream CES to ensure broader coverage and encourage all manufacturers to prioritize accessibility.

Walter Benjamin’s 1935 essay, “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproducibility,” explores the impact of mass media on art and society. He argues that mass media, such as film and photography, diminishes the “aura” of art by creating a spectacle that replaces authentic experience with a simulated intimacy. Benjamin also connects this phenomenon to fascism, suggesting that the aestheticization of politics can lead to the glorification of violence and the loss of meaningful human connection.

With new global standards reshaping expectations, Ayala Gordon and Sarah Lewthwaite argue that accessibility must move from compliance afterthought to strategic priority across every part of the university.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul proposed allowing dancing by default in taverns and bars, and creating a new hybrid restaurant-tavern license. This would bring transparency to establishments that currently operate as nightclubs but self-identify as restaurants. While the proposal aims to improve trust and reduce confusion, it still requires dancing licenses for bars and taverns and prohibits dancing in restaurants.

The delay in releasing CP/M-86, the 16-bit version of CP/M, was a significant factor in its downfall. While the delay was partly due to the success of CP/M 2.2, which required extensive support for OEMs, the primary reason was the time-consuming development of a new PL/I compiler. This diversion from CP/M development ultimately led to IBM choosing MS-DOS for their PC.

Microsoft’s SoftCard, a hardware card that enabled the Apple II to run CP/M, became a major success and the most popular platform for CP/M. This success, however, strained DRI’s resources, delaying CP/M-86 and leading to the development of 86-DOS by SCP, which Microsoft later acquired and rebranded as MS-DOS. Despite initial success, CP/M-86 struggled against MS-DOS, ultimately leading to DRI’s decline and acquisition by Novell in 1991.

The text discusses the importance of compilers in software development, highlighting their role in translating source code into machine code. It compares the compilers of different programming languages, such as Rust and Java, emphasizing their unique features and functionalities. The text also touches upon the concept of self-hosting compilers and the bootstrapping process.

The text explores the role of compilers and type systems in programming languages, particularly focusing on TypeScript. It highlights the benefits of gradual typing and structural typing for dynamically typed languages like JavaScript. The author argues that developers often “lie” to compilers by not providing accurate information about nullability, exceptions, and type casting, limiting the compiler’s usefulness.

The text emphasizes the importance of communicating effectively with the compiler to improve code safety and maintainability. It highlights common practices like using null, exceptions, casting, and side-effects, which can mislead the compiler and hinder its usefulness. By adopting alternative approaches like using Option types for nullable values, Result types for exceptions, and sealed types for casting, developers can make their intentions clearer to the compiler. Additionally, separating pure computation from side-effects and using typed wrappers for concepts can further enhance the compiler’s ability to assist in code development.

The text emphasizes the importance of using union types and other sophisticated types to express invariants and guarantees in code. By modelling alternative states and encoding constraints as types, the compiler can enforce these rules, reducing the need for defensive programming and improving code reliability. This approach, exemplified by the Google Cloud outage incident, helps developers avoid null pointer exceptions and other runtime errors by making illegal states unrepresentable.

MongoBleed (CVE-2025-14847) is a critical vulnerability in MongoDB’s zlib1 message compression path, affecting versions since 2017. It allows attackers to read uninitialized heap memory, potentially exposing sensitive data like passwords and API keys. The exploit involves sending a false uncompressed size, causing the server to allocate excessive memory, and then exploiting BSON parsing to leak data.

A vulnerability in MongoDB’s zlib network compression allows attackers to read arbitrary heap data, including sensitive information, from publicly accessible databases. The vulnerability, present since 2017, was patched in December 2025 but not publicly disclosed until December 24th. While MongoDB claims no evidence of exploitation, the simplicity of the exploit and the number of exposed databases suggest otherwise.

Online comments suggest that exposing a database to the public warrants consequences.

Self-hosting a database, particularly Postgres, is often more cost-effective and offers similar reliability to managed services like AWS RDS. While managed services handle operational tasks, self-hosting provides more control and cost savings, especially for those with high-traffic applications. The author argues that the pendulum has swung too far towards managed services and encourages teams to consider self-hosting for their databases.

The author explores the characteristics that make accessibility overlays problematic, focusing on toolbars, automated accessibility fixes, and unethical marketing. The author argues that toolbars should not imply support for specific disabilities, automated fixes should be purpose-built and not generalized, and marketing should not mislead users about compliance. The author uses their own WP Accessibility plugin and Elementor’s A11y plugin as examples to illustrate these points.
