·14 views

JD Logistics, listed on HKEX as stock 2618, originated from JD.com's in-house logistics arm in 2007 and became an independent entity in 2017. The company now operates an integrated supply chain network spanning warehousing, cold-chain, cross-border, and last-mile delivery services across China and beyond. As of end-2025, its infrastructure includes over 1,600 self-operated warehouses, 34 million square metres of floor space, 60,000 vehicles, and 12 cargo aircraft. The network's software and automation capabilities allow roughly 95% of JD.com's domestic first-party orders to be fulfilled within 24 hours. Beyond serving JD.com, the company is expanding its external customer base, with technology and data-driven decision-making increasingly central to its operations.

Common coturn TURN Server Misconfigurations That Silently Break WebRTC Relays

Self-hosting a TURN server with coturn is a frequent last resort for WebRTC developers, but several common misconfigurations can cause silent failures that are difficult to diagnose. On Debian and Ubuntu systems, the coturn package ships with its enable switch commented out in /etc/default/coturn, meaning the service can appear active via systemctl while never actually binding to any port. Developers can verify whether coturn is truly running by checking bound ports with 'ss -lunp' rather than relying on service status alone. A separate issue arises when cloud VMs advertise private internal IP addresses as relayed candidates, causing ICE negotiation to stall even though allocations appear successful server-side. Before assuming coturn itself is broken, engineers should first confirm TURN is actually in the connection path using browser WebRTC diagnostic tools and rule out unroutable addresses or closed UDP port ranges, which produce identical symptoms and are far more common.

Only 1 in 4 'Remote' Jobs Truly Open to India, Developer's Script Finds

A developer scraped around 900 job postings across eight remote job boards to determine how many were genuinely accessible to applicants based in India. After filtering for React, Node, and full-stack roles posted within 14 days, 71 relevant listings were identified. Of those, 41 were restricted by geography, timezone, or work-authorization requirements, leaving only 16 truly open to Indian applicants. The developer built the tool — now available as an open-source scraper on Apify — to automatically classify each posting using location fields, description phrases, timezone rules, and local-hire markers. The project supports over 110 countries and can also function as an MCP tool for AI agents.

What Is a Harness? The Software Layer That Makes LLMs Actually Useful

A harness is a software layer that wraps around a large language model (LLM), responsible for constructing prompts and translating the model's responses into executable actions. Because LLMs have no built-in memory, the harness must compile and resend the entire conversation history — along with system instructions and available tools — with every new user interaction. Products like ChatGPT, Claude Code, and Cursor all implement their own harness engineering around underlying models. For end users, this architecture means that longer, topic-mixed conversations can increase the risk of the model producing inaccurate responses. For developers building AI-integrated applications, managing this context window — deciding what information to include, how to structure it, and how to handle the model's output — becomes a core engineering responsibility.

agent-usage Tool Tracks AI Agent Costs After Uncapped 5-Hour Spending Runs

A new open-source tool called agent-usage addresses a key problem where AI agents spawning sub-agents can consume hours of compute time with no cost estimate or user confirmation. The tool provides a local dashboard that breaks down usage by agent, billing domain, and model. It is available via npm as agent-usage-all-in-one and runs on macOS with Node 24 or higher. The project is MIT-licensed and hosted on GitHub, offering local charts and advisory insights without any automatic intervention. A menubar interface is listed on the roadmap but has not yet been released.
