Did the sizing of rings change compared to the last sizing kit? Or is it just the extra sizes added
This week Cloudflare shamelessly cloned and released the product of one of their primary competitors.
I'm beginning to wonder - if AI can rewrite software from scratch, without using any of the original code, do software licenses actually mean anything anymore?

We've got a new batch of Verge stories that are completely free to read for today only. First up, from @jp2e.bsky.social:
After years of trying to switch to Home Assistant, Claude Code got me (mostly) there in one afternoon.
Today at @github.com we're rolling out a new issues search in preview.
In internal testing, the average list position has improved by 39% with the new semantic search in addition to returning more matching results!
Check out this side-by-side comparison in this popular repo from Home Assistant:
Attending FOSDEM this weekend. If you are interested in talking open source, smart home or how to build sustainable organizations that create human-centered technology, hit me up!
"since I unleashed Claude in my smart home via Home Assistant, I can finally see a future where everything just works, and I want that future now"
I used Claude to vibe-code my wildly overcomplicated smart home

I switched to Android last year and I've been having a blast. Really allows me to make it mine - and that means a phone not set up to distract me.
This article has been bouncing around in my head for the past couple of months, but I finally sat down and wrote it.
A simple graphic of a stamp on a red background, created by our graphic artist Clelia Rella. The stamp has a beige border with a black background. Aligned to the bottom left of the stamp is the year 2026 stacked on itself in white text; from the bottom right branches out green sprigs of evergreen in the style of our antenna lines, it weaves through the numbers. Aligned to the top left in white is the Home Assistant logo and name. The red background has darker red shaded snowflakes with a few wavy lines aligned near the bottom left as if a postal carrier stamped an envelope the Home Assistant stamp is on. Under the stamp in white text reads: HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Time to say farewell 2025 and hello 2026. π It's because of you, the community, that we were able to make 2025 our best year yet. ππ»
From all of us, to you and yours: here's to all the blessings we hope 2026 will bring. π₯ #HappyNewYear

Iβm actually so stuck on Andrej excitedly sharing this seemingly-impressive use of AI, which actually recapitulates tons of existing work to create new and exciting security issues. Any human engineer would have been like, idk dude just use Home Assistant
