Supabase fixes broken client trace propagation and now preserves trace IDs even for unsampled requests
supabase-js 2.112.3 materially improves the tracing rollout BTN covered earlier: unsampled requests now still carry traceparent for backend log correlation, tracing misconfiguration produces warnings, and browser Edge Function calls need current CORS headers to admit W3C trace context.

Node.js shipped v22.23.2, v24.18.1 and v26.5.1 to close a set of runtime vulnerabilities including an HTTP/2 use-after-free and a Permission Model path-matching bug that can over-grant filesystem access.
Shopify’s non-Plus checkout deadline has passed — legacy Thank you and Order status scripts are sunset
The non-Plus checkout migration is now an active compatibility boundary rather than an approaching deadline. Orders can continue while old post-purchase scripts, pixels or widgets stop working, making end-to-end conversion and app-behavior checks important after the cutover.

Lightpanda 1.0 makes a Zig headless browser production-ready for agents and crawlers

Amazon joins YouTube Shopping so creators can tag products instead of relying on description links
The integration brings Amazon’s catalog into YouTube’s native shopping layer. It reduces the gap between product recommendation and purchase compared with description links, but access currently requires both YouTube and Amazon affiliate eligibility and is still limited to a select group of creators.
