Welcome to globalGlob Presents: Log Level Debug a show about news, and stuff, and things, in the technology world. Recorded live, June 15th, 2026. And I'm, NOT left handed. Before we start, we want to remind you to visit globalGlob.dev for the latest news in software development, I.T., and technology in general. Now let's get into all the news we logged over the past week. 404 Media is reporting that Amazon Delivery vehicles received an update which turns off the A/C. The purpose is to conserve battery life when the drivers aren't sitting inside the vehicle. But the drivers spend more time outside of the vehicle delivering packages, causing the A/C to shut off and let the cabin heat up. Amazon is choosing to classify this as a software bug because none of the drivers affected are attempting to unionize. At this time, Amazon has no plans to fix the software. Saying their priority is reducing costs, and a cooled off cabin raises their electric bill.  *tosses paper* Moving on. This week Apple held their yearly development conference, WWDC. Which..stands for...Wild...and Wacky...lower-case-a-apple Development Conference... Yeah, that sounds right. They announced a lot of UI...stuff. AirPod settings, CarPlay apps getting video support, the Mac will be able to resize the iPhone mirroring window, a preview of new child safety features... I'm sorry, I'm not an Apple user. This all sounds like good stuff. Congrats to all of you. But I don't know what a lot of that means. Except for the child safety features. Which we all know means iOS will block the words 'Android' and 'Windows' from any apps or websites. *confused* I guess they're not worried about Linux. Because WWDC is a development conference, no hardware was announced. The big stuff comes in September when they announce...bigger iPhones, and smaller sized, but bigger WEIGHTED, iPads. Look forward to that. In September. Also announced last year, but reminded during WWDC, is that Intel-based Macs wont be able to update to macOS 27. Obviously they'll still work with MacOS 26. But, do you really want to use it? It'll be old. One of the keys will sometimes stick. I bet the battery is down to like, 14 hours. So if you still have an Intel-based Mac, congrats on your new paperweight. *tosses paper* Moving on. This week Anthropic released a new LLM model called Fable 5. It's a 'Mythos-class' model, so it's very expensive to use. But with all the good stuff stripped out. If you try to use it for anything cybersecurity related, it'll downgrade to a lesser model. But don't worry, you'll still pay the same price. It's a win-win. For-Anthropic. Not you. *tosses paper* In related news, Microsoft is limiting employee use of Fable 5 because Anthropic has changed its data retention rules for the new model. They are storing prompts and outputs for 30 days, and some up to 2 years. Even though Microsoft employees can't use the new model, Microsoft is offering it to its customers through GitHub CoPilot and their Azure Foundry service. Which is a win-win. For Microsoft and Anthropic. Not you. *tosses paper* Moving on. GitHub has announced that the next major version of NPM will be getting some security changes when `npm install` runs. By default NPM will no longer run install scripts, resolve git dependencies, or download files from remote URLs. Of course...if you want...you can re-enable all of those features just to feel alive. Because what's a dependency manager without a gigantic foot gun. *tosses paper* Moving on. A German court has declared that Google is liable for any false information it provides from its A.I. Overviews. The reasoning being that Google is the one making statements, not just sharing links to what other people are saying. Google was sued after their A.I. overview said some publishing companies were tied to scams and shady business practices. *image* And we at global glob can't wait to sue for all the misinformation they're spreading. *tosses paper* Moving on. The cryptocurrency exchange company Coinbase has released a postmortem of their 10 hour outage that took place on May 10th. After some failures in AWS's us-east-1 datacenter, their services did not have an *automated* failover to another availability zone. As a result, they had to *manually* move things over. Of course, the real failure is they used us-east-1. That's the one that always goes down. It's a meme, and everything. The east-1 datacenter is in Virginia, which is for lovers. Instead everyone should be using us-east-2. Which is in Ohio. And Ohio is...also...for lovers? There's that song, Ohio is for lovers. Okay, one of them is for lovers. And that means you definitely should, or shouldn't, use it to host you cloud services. *tosses paper* Moving on. Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir, has said A.I. companies quote: don't understand how unlikable they are: end quote. *cycle through links* Which might just be the best real world example of: Look who's talking. Karp specifically called out OpenAI, saying they are attempting to replicate Palantir. Which is probably true given how often people protest when OpenAI or Palantir want to put something in their neighborhood. *cycle through links* *tosses paper* Speaking of people everyone hates, let's talk about Mark Zuckerberg. The CEO of the Facebook company, legal name Meta, announced an A.I. hackathon for next month. As a result, employees of the company are angry, frustrated, and only sober if they need to be. After all the recent layoffs, many employees are too busy doing their jobs, and the jobs of the people laid off, to participate in a hackathon to develop new products for the company. One employee said if they have to, they'll finally add a 'dislike' button to Facebook. It's easy to implement, and is the most requested feature. *tosses paper* And that's all the news that happened this week. Oh, woops, no. Sorry. One more CEO. Elon Musk is in the news this week. But it's okay. This time, it has nothing to do with non-consentual pornography, condemning hundreds of thousands of people to death, being high on an ambassadorial trip for the government, or just being weird. This time, he made a ton of money. It's all assets, so the money is on paper. Not his bank account. But close enough. Considering how bad it usually is when he's in the news..this is better. *tosses paper* And THAT's all the news that happened this week. If we didn't talk about it, it's not in the logs. Before closing out, we want to let you know there will not be episode next week. And possibly, but not sure yet, maybe not the week after either. We'll all find out at the same time. I guess that makes this the last June episode. So, Happy Pride everyone! Join Log Level Debug next week when we'll talk about everything that happened between now and then.
