You don't need a big budget to build with a serious coding agent. Qoder Lite: $10 a month, 1,000 Credits. Flash models for everyday work, flagship models for the hard stuff. First subscription? Double Credits in month one.

🦆 Announcing DuckDB 2.0.0 LTS “Cinnamon Teal” We are proud to release DuckDB 2.0.0, named after the cinnamon teal (Spatula cyanoptera), a striking reddish-brown duck found in the western Americas. 🌎 DuckDB 2.0.0 is the biggest DuckDB feature release so far. It ships a polished version of the Quack protocol, which turns DuckDB into a full-fledged server. It improves performance and lowers costs through supporting asynchronous I/O, a first-class VARIANT type, and a dedicated “agent mode”. It also empowers extension developers with a new SQL parser that allows adding new statements, clauses, and keywords, a new API to build on, and a new mechanism to distribute extensions more easily. In our announcement blog post, we summarize the highlights and then walk through the key changes and give guidance on how to migrate to 2.0. For the complete release notes, see the release page on GitHub⁠. duckdb.org/2026/10/21/announ… #DuckDB

This is Pele, my new rendering library for diagrams and charts, compatible with the latest Mermaid syntax. - 100-500× faster than mermaid.js - 6× smaller bundle - No dependencies - Easy to theme - Responsive to device width In pursuit of making Obsidian insanely fast and cohesively designed, I always found the Mermaid library to be too big, too slow, and too hard to theme. Pele will be the new renderer in the next version of Obsidian, but you can start using it now. Pele [ˈpɛlɛ] is named after the goddess of volcanoes and fire. It's open source under the MIT license. Try the playground!

The team behind @Deno_Land, including @rough__sea (he knows a bit about Node.js), is joining @Cloudflare. They’ll help make Workers better for Node.js developers and advance workerd as a core primitive for what comes next. cfl.re/4zlzlSa

We just released Polars 2.0. It removed many of our legacy decisions makes the streaming engine our default and promotes SQL to a first class citizen within Polars. It comes with initial out-of-core (spill to disk) support, a new Map data type and a lot of performance improvements. In fact, we think Polars is now one of the fastest analytical SQL engines on a single node. See benchmarks in the post: pola.rs/posts/release-polars…

Junie can now run entirely on your machine, and it’s completely free to use. One command: /local. We picked and optimized the whole stack around the model: agent harness, model parameters, and inference engine. No tokens, no quota, no code ever leaving your machine.

Less known: chDB has a JDBC driver. chdb-java-ffm binds libchdb through Java 22's Foreign Function and Memory API instead of JNI, so jdbc:chdb::memory: works with plain DriverManager and Spring JdbcTemplate. Read-only for now. github.com/linux-china/chdb-… @linux_china
