Stack Overflow

🎙️ We're joined by Thibault Sottiaux, OpenAI’s Engineering Lead for Codex, to discuss their focus on an agentic SDLC rather than just code generation, what distinguishes an agentic coding tool from a chat-based code assistant, and how their team dogfoods Codex to build and improve it. https://lnkd.in/ecr_n6nF

Due to AI bots and malicious scraping, a once robust internet economy has begun to collapse. But retaining ownership of data and protecting proprietary content is one of the few ways we can keep our online communities healthy. That's where Stack Overflow and Cloudflare's pay-per-crawl model comes in. On Leaders of Code, we dive into our recently co-launched model and what it means for content creators: https://lnkd.in/ead8bYaF

Last year at WeAreDevelopers World Congress, we shared our new vision and mission, and committed to the evolution of our larger network. Now, we're giving you a sneak peak into a redesigned Stack—and a chance to have your voice heard. Read about what's available in the beta version of Stack Overflow and how your feedback helps us shape how our sites grow and evolve: https://lnkd.in/g94VeS5D

🎙️ We're joined on the show by Philippe Saadé, AI project lead at Wikimedia Deutschland e. V. , to dive into the Wikidata Embedding Project and how their team vectorized 30 million of Wikidata’s entries to help fight scraping, and where user feedback was key to bringing Wikipedia’s vast knowledge to AI. https://lnkd.in/eFBvqUzU

Thanks to AI, bad code is easier to write than ever, making application security increasingly more important—even in your file uploads. In this Q&A, Ryan Donovan chats with Tommaso Bertocchi, creator of the open source pompelmi project, about creating easy and flexible ways to defend against file upload attacks, and how devs can create a strong baseline against attacks to keep their codebases safe. https://lnkd.in/eRbCwUxU

There's a trust gap between developers and AI, and your team's knowledge is the only way to bridge it. Last week at #DeveloperWeek2026, our Chief Product and Technology Officer Jody Bailey took the stage for a keynote on the power of knowledge and context in AI software development strategies and how companies like Uber, Xerox, and HP are using Stack Internal, our knowledge ecosystem, to accelerate AI initiatives and supercharge their productivity.

🎙️ Host Ryan Donovan welcomes Shireesh Thota, CVP of Azure Databases at Microsoft, to the show to discuss the evolution of databases at Microsoft, from Azure’s comprehensive portfolio that includes SQL Server, CosmosDB, and Postgres to the importance of cost governance and multi-cloud strategies for future AI-driven databases. https://lnkd.in/edvd6Xch

Join us tomorrow at the #DeveloperWeek2026 Main Stage for a keynote from our Chief Product and Technology Officer Jody Bailey! He'll share how you can harness the power of AI from the foundation of knowledge your team already has, and how engineering organizations can leverage their data to create AI tooling that keeps up with developer needs, not slow them down. Learn more about DeveloperWeek and get your pass for Jody's 11:30am PT keynote: https://lnkd.in/enDaE3hi

🎙️ On this episode of Leaders of Code, our own Janice Manningham and Josh Zhang sit down with Cloudflare VP William Allen to discuss how the rise of AI has disrupted the traditional “open versus block” internet model, creating a need for platforms to protect their content, and how our innovative pay-per-crawl model partnership guards data from third-party exploitation while maintaining community access. https://lnkd.in/eHPifuGi

While there are major players in the AI space working to save the environment, provide humanitarian relief, and make healthcare more accessible, you don't need to be backed by Microsoft or AWS to use tech for good. In part two of our 'AI for Good' series, Phoebe Sajor examines how every person has the power to use AI to give back to their communities and drive important change in the world. https://lnkd.in/eA7ukeUF
