New in PHP 8.6: Polling API

Oct 15, 2026 By Tim Düsterhus In Tideways
PHP 8.6 will include a new Polling API (RFC) that was developed as part of the PHP Foundation’s “Stream Improvement” project. Since we at Tideways place a special emphasis on PHP performance, we see this as a significant improvement for PHP users; one that has so far gone largely unnoticed by the PHP community. We hope that a wider audience will recognize its potential.

The Top 5 Root Causes of False Failures in Test Automation And How AI Can Help Eliminate Them

Oct 15, 2026 By Perforce In Perforce
False failures, a leading cause of flaky tests, occur when a test reports a defect that does not exist. The application works, yet the test suite says otherwise. The cost goes well beyond a few minutes of investigation. Perforce's 2026 State of DevOps Report found 50% of test failures stem from brittle scripts and UI changes, not actual defects, and 70% of automation effort goes toward fixing those scripts. Most teams are spending their automation budget on maintenance, not coverage.

Make React Native builds 4x faster with fingerprint-based caching on Bitrise

Oct 14, 2026 By Silvercast Nguyen In Bitrise
Build tools have relied on it for years to avoid redoing work that hasn't changed. In React Native CI it's still a bit of a secret sauce: a fingerprint-based caching technique that can make your builds several times faster, yet one that surprisingly few teams have switched on. The premise is simple: most of the time you're only changing JavaScript, so most of the native modules are reusable.

How JavaScript Garbage Collection Works

Oct 13, 2026 By Aleix Ventayol In Bugfender
If you’ve ever written JavaScript, you’ve never had to write code that says “delete this object, I’m done with it.” That’s because there’s a process called garbage collection running in the background to save you the hassle. Most of the time this process works smoothly and invisibly. But it can also cause an app to suddenly start stuttering for no obvious reason if you don’t manage it effectively. This post will give you the tools to do just that.

Expanding Into a New Real Estate Market? The Data and Integration Checklist You Need Before Launch

Oct 13, 2026 By Zorian Fedoryga In ORIL
For a real estate platform, a new market can introduce different source systems, property attributes, identifiers, business rules, geographic structures, and reporting requirements, each of which enters the platform somewhere. The engineering question is where those differences land in the existing platform, and whether the current data model, integrations, search, workflows, and analytics can absorb them without a second architecture forming alongside the first.

Generating Random Numbers in Ruby: rand, Random & SecureRandom

Oct 13, 2026 By Joyce Echessa In AppSignal
To generate a random number in Ruby, call rand: rand(10) returns an integer from 0–9, rand(1..10) an integer from 1–10, and rand alone a float between 0.0 and 1.0. For security-sensitive values like tokens and passwords, use SecureRandom — rand is predictable. Computers cannot produce truly random numbers by computation alone. A deterministic machine can only produce pseudorandom numbers: a stream that looks random but comes from an algorithm fed with a starting value, the seed.

Life after App Center: how we rebuilt CodePush from the ground up

Oct 13, 2026 By Gabor Pongracz In Bitrise
In March 2024, Microsoft announced it would retire App Center in March 2025. For a lot of mobile teams, the first question was simple: what now? I was on the Release Management team at the time, and we thought CodePush was worth pursuing. We wrote up the case, got it onto the roadmap, and then waited. Nobody could say yet whether it would become a valuable product, and a team our size has to pick its bets carefully.

Connect Bolt.new to On-Prem SQL Server Without Exposing Sql Server to the Internet

Oct 13, 2026 By DreamFactory | AI & Applications Data Gateway In DreamFactory
Connect Bolt to an on-prem SQL Server database without opening a single firewall port or handing over a database password. In this video I put DreamFactory in front of a SQL Server database on my local network, generate a REST API from it, lock that API down with a read-only role and a scoped API key, then I have Bolt build a live delivery operations dashboard on top of it. Bolt calls the API from a Bolt server function, so the key never reaches the browser.

8 Leading Platforms for Automated Software Delivery With AI Agents

8 Leading Platforms for Automated Software Delivery With AI Agents

Oct 13, 2026 By SystemsDigest In SystemsDigest
Software delivery automation is moving beyond pipelines. CI/CD can compile code, run tests, build artifacts, and execute predefined deployment steps. AI agents add something different: the ability to interpret engineering work, gather context, choose what should happen next, respond to failed checks, coordinate tools, and continue working toward an outcome.
