WebKit @ Apple

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

Just crossed my 3rd year working on WebKit. So much to learn and so much to solve with every passing day!

Hard to believe Apple subtly shipped a very nice headless browser—WebPage—and few are talking about it.

In 2013, when government tried mass domestic surveillance, the tech industry responded with HTTPS everywhere.

Hooray! @ladybirdbrowser has passed the 90% threshold on web-platform-tests! 📈🎉

This is the arbitrary limit Apple says we must reach to be considered an eligible alternative browser engine on iOS. (+ other requirements)

So proud of the team for getting us this far 💜

Mobile IDs (mdocs) are cryptographically signed digital versions of government-issued credentials. Safari 26 can now request them directly from digital wallets with the W3C Digital Credentials API.

half of bun’s team is here on visas. it’s already very difficult to find great engineers. please don’t make it harder

Safari 26 is here with many features and improvements! The one closest to my heart is our brand new API designed for SwiftUI.
