EU Cyber Resilience Act's 2026 Deadline Catches Most Tech Teams Unprepared

·1 views

While most companies are focused on the EU Cyber Resilience Act's main compliance deadline of December 11, 2027, a critical earlier obligation takes effect on September 11, 2026, requiring manufacturers to report actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe security incidents. The regulation applies to all software and connected products sold in the EU market, regardless of where the manufacturer is based, and mandates component-level documentation, security update support, and incident reporting. A key challenge is that widely used components — including OpenSSL 3.0 and .NET 8 — are set to reach end-of-life within days or weeks of the reporting deadline, making it impossible to fulfil security update obligations for products that depend on them. Non-compliance can result in penalties of up to €15 million or 2.5% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher. Experts warn that building a full component inventory and completing remediation typically takes months to quarters, meaning teams that delay risk missing the runway entirely before reporting obligations kick in.

Aussom: A New Scripting Language Built to Complement Java, Not Replace It

Aussom is a new scripting language designed to fill the gaps where Java feels cumbersome, such as runtime scripting, hot-swapping business logic, and running throwaway code without a full build cycle. Unlike JVM languages such as Kotlin, Scala, or Groovy, Aussom does not compile to bytecode; instead, its runtime interprets code directly on the fly inside a running JVM process. This approach allows code to be loaded, executed, and discarded at runtime without restarting the application. The language draws a deliberate parallel to the C-and-Python relationship, positioning itself as a lightweight, dynamic companion to Java rather than a competitor. Aussom scripts require no class declarations or boilerplate, and the standard library supports common tasks like HTTP requests, JSON parsing, and console I/O.

DEV Tutorial: Adding Search, Command Palette and Settings to a SwiftUI Contacts App

A DEV Community tutorial series continues with Part 2, building on a SwiftUI Contacts app introduced in Part 1. The guide walks intermediate developers through adding an adaptive navigation shell that switches between a sidebar on iPad and a tab bar on iPhone, without platform-specific conditional guards. New features include a live-filtering search field, a command palette triggered by the keyboard shortcut Command-K, and skeleton loaders to handle simulated slow data fetches. A settings screen is also introduced, offering controls for notifications, display density, sync intervals, and beta features, with per-component theme token overrides. The tutorial emphasizes a data-driven routing approach, enumerating app sections once and supplying them to whichever navigation component the screen width demands.

Solon v4.0.3 Adds Built-In Interceptors to Make ReActAgents Production-Ready

Solon AI version 4.0.3 introduces three built-in interceptors for ReActAgents designed to address common production failures in AI agent deployments. The StopLoopInterceptor prevents agents from thrashing on repeated tool calls within a configurable sliding window, while ToolRetryInterceptor handles flaky API calls using linear backoff retries. ToolSanitizerInterceptor truncates or sanitizes oversized and sensitive tool observations before they re-enter the agent's context. All three interceptors live under the org.noear.solon.ai.agent.react.intercept package and can be combined with the stream() API to deliver live UI feedback during agent execution. Together, these controls aim to make ReActAgents more resilient and observable without requiring a custom agent runtime.

How to Reclaim 160 GB of Mac Storage Hidden Inside 'System Data'

macOS groups uncategorized files — including app caches, Xcode build artifacts, Docker images, and simulator data — under a label called 'System Data,' which can silently consume hundreds of gigabytes with no built-in delete option. A developer recently documented how Terminal commands like 'du -sh' can reveal exactly which folders are responsible for the bloat. In one case, Docker alone occupied 63 GB, Xcode iOS simulators took up 28 GB, and app caches added roughly 30 GB more, totalling around 160 GB of recoverable space. Targeted commands can safely remove unused Docker volumes, stale Xcode build caches, old device support files, and simulator data, all of which macOS or the relevant app will regenerate as needed. Apple's Storage screen does not reflect these deletions immediately, so a restart is recommended before checking whether the numbers have dropped.
