Basecamp Five

I've been working on Basecamp for half my life, and nearly my entire professional career in software. The first code was written in the summer of 2003 when I was just 23. Now I'm 46, and we've just released the fifth major version.  It's an incredible update to a service that continues to help about a million users a day avoid dropping the ball when working with others. It's AI accessible, but not agent hysteric. It's still famously easy to use, still executes the basics beautifully, and still focuses on the small to medium-sized teams we've been serving in the Fortune 5,000,000 for decades. Here are just three of my favorite new features in Basecamp 5: Lexxy editor : Our new text editor finally brings tables, markdown, and live syntax highlighting for code to Basecamp. Oh, and voice notes. It's built on Meta's Lexical editor toolkit, and it's going to ship as the default for Action Text in the next major version of Rails. Keyboard accessible : After moving to Linux, building Omarchy , and acquiring a taste for mechanical keyboards, I've come to love navigating the computer primarily through hotkeys. So with a lot of effort, Basecamp is now a delight to drive through the keys , and you don't have to be a brainiac to remember them all: just hold down SHIFT, and they're revealed in the interface. SHIFT + S opens the sidebar, ESC moves focus between it and the main page, SHIFT + C starts composing a comment/chat line/answer. The permanent sidebar : If you live in Basecamp, like I do, it's to stay on top of all the new things that are constantly happening in a busy account, and that's just gotten so much faster with the new permanent sidebar. Before, we had a Hey! menu in the top bar. You'd get a little dot when something was new, then you'd open it, click, and the menu would close. If you had five things that were new, it'd be open-click-close, open-click-close, five times. Being able to zoom through these now with just the return key, tap, tap, tap, and I've read three new things. So good. And there's so much more. Jason put together a great summary on the new marketing site, which in itself is brand new too. A back-to-basics design in many ways. As our entire industry is getting swept up in agent hysteria (and I love AI as much as anyone!), we thought it better to focus on the human communication that's the cornerstone of Basecamp. The new site just speaks plainly to that mission and shows you the software right at the top. Another thing that's back is color, specifically in the logo. Basecamp's clever but flat paperclip logo has been replaced with a modern take of our original rolling mountains. In full three dimensions, with depth and a gradient. Love it.  Overall, I'm really proud of what we've built with Basecamp Five. We're inching in on a quarter of a century in service! We still have customers who signed up back in early 2004! This is the kind of legacy that makes me beam, and the new version is just ace.  If you've tried Basecamp in the past, it's time to take another look . If you haven't tried it yet, you're in for a treat .

AWS Weekly Roundup: AWS Local Zones in Istanbul, open-source ExtendDB, Kiro Web, and more (May 25, 2026)

There’s something genuinely energizing about working with startups — something I’ve been doing intensely for more than two years now. Startups operate at a different frequency: the urgency is real, the constraints are tight, and the stakes are personal. Helping them navigate the challenge of proving their business model requires not just technical depth but […]

Netherlands Seizes 800 Servers, Arrests 2 for Aiding Cyberattacks

Authorities in the Netherlands have arrested the co-owners of two related Internet hosting companies for operating IT infrastructure used by Russia to carry out cyberattacks, influence operations and disinformation campaigns inside the European Union. The two men were the focus of a 2025 KrebsOnSecurity story about how their hosting companies had assumed control over the technical infrastructure of Stark Industries Solutions, an Internet service provider sanctioned last year by the EU as a frequent staging ground for cyber mischief from Russia's intelligence agencies.

Returns a disposable to stop showing actions. Action annotations can also be enabled in test fixtures via the <code>video</code> option: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="// playwright.config.ts export default defineConfig({ use: { video: { mode: 'on', show: { actions: { position: 'top-left' }, test: { position: 'top-right' }, }, }, }, });"><pre>// playwright.config.ts export default defineConfig({ use: { video: { mode: 'on', show: { actions: { position: 'top-left' }, test: { position: 'top-right' }, }, }, }, });</pre></div> Visual overlays — add chapter titles and custom HTML overlays on top of the page for richer narration: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="await page.screencast.showChapter('Adding TODOs', { description: 'Type and press enter for each TODO', duration: 1000, }); await page.screencast.showOverlay('<div style="color: red">Recording</div>');"><pre>await page.screencast.showChapter('Adding TODOs', { description: 'Type and press enter for each TODO', duration: 1000, }); await page.screencast.showOverlay('<div style="color: red">Recording</div>');</pre></div> Real-time frame capture — stream JPEG-encoded frames for custom processing like thumbnails, live previews, AI vision, and more: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="await page.screencast.start({ onFrame: ({ data }) => sendToVisionModel(data), size: { width: 800, height: 600 }, });"><pre>await page.screencast.start({ onFrame: ({ data }) => sendToVisionModel(data), size: { width: 800, height: 600 }, });</pre></div> Agentic video receipts — coding agents can produce video evidence of their work. After completing a task, an agent can record a walkthrough video with rich annotations for human review: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="await page.screencast.start({ path: 'receipt.webm' }); await page.screencast.showActions({ position: 'top-right' }); await page.screencast.showChapter('Verifying checkout flow', { description: 'Added coupon code support per ticket #1234', }); // Agent performs the verification steps... await page.locator('#coupon').fill('SAVE20'); await page.locator('#apply-coupon').click(); await expect(page.locator('.discount')).toContainText('20%'); await page.screencast.showChapter('Done', { description: 'Coupon applied, discount reflected in total', }); await page.screencast.stop();"><pre>await page.screencast.start({ path: 'receipt.webm' }); await page.screencast.showActions({ position: 'top-right' }); await page.screencast.showChapter('Verifying checkout flow', { description: 'Added coupon code support per ticket #1234', }); // Agent performs the verification steps... await page.locator('#coupon').fill('SAVE20'); await page.locator('#apply-coupon').click(); await expect(page.locator('.discount')).toContainText('20%'); await page.screencast.showChapter('Done', { description: 'Coupon applied, discount reflected in total', }); await page.screencast.stop();</pre></div> The resulting video serves as a receipt: chapter titles provide context, action annotations highlight each interaction, and the visual walkthrough is faster to review than text logs. <h2>🔗 Interoperability</h2> New <a href="https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browser#browser-bind" rel="nofollow">browser.bind()</a> API makes a launched browser available for <code>playwright-cli</code>, <code>@playwright/mcp</code>, and other clients to connect to. Bind a browser — start a browser and bind it so others can connect: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="const { endpoint } = await browser.bind('my-session', { workspaceDir: '/my/project', });"><pre>const { endpoint } = await browser.bind('my-session', { workspaceDir: '/my/project', });</pre></div> Connect from playwright-cli — connect to the running browser from your favorite coding agent. <div class="highlight highlight-source-shell notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="playwright-cli attach my-session playwright-cli -s my-session snapshot"><pre>playwright-cli attach my-session playwright-cli -s my-session snapshot</pre></div> Connect from @playwright/mcp — or point your MCP server to the running browser. <div class="highlight highlight-source-shell notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="@playwright/mcp --endpoint=my-session"><pre>@playwright/mcp --endpoint=my-session</pre></div> Connect from a Playwright client — use API to connect to the browser. Multiple clients at a time are supported! <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="const browser = await chromium.connect(endpoint);"><pre>const browser = await chromium.connect(endpoint);</pre></div> Pass <code>host</code> and <code>port</code> options to bind over WebSocket instead of a named pipe: <div class="highlight highlight-source-js notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="const { endpoint } = await browser.bind('my-session', { host: 'localhost', port: 0, }); // endpoint is a ws:// URL"><pre>const { endpoint } = await browser.bind('my-session', { host: 'localhost', port: 0, }); // endpoint is a ws:// URL</pre></div> Call <a href="https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browser#browser-unbind" rel="nofollow">browser.unbind()</a> to stop accepting new connections. <h2>📊 Observability</h2> Run <code>playwright-cli show</code> to open the Dashboard that lists all the bound browsers, their statuses, and allows interacting with them: <ul> <li>See what your agent is doing on the background browsers</li> <li>Click into the sessions for manual interventions</li> <li>Open DevTools to inspect pages from the background browsers.</li> </ul> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/playwright/main/docs/src/images/release-notes-1.59-dashboard.png"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/playwright/main/docs/src/images/release-notes-1.59-dashboard.png" alt="Demo" width="1169" height="835" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto; max-height: 835px;"></a> - `playwright-cli` binds all of its browsers automatically, so you can see what your agents are doing. - Pass `PLAYWRIGHT_DASHBOARD=1` env variable to see all `@playwright/test` browsers in the dashboard. <h2>🐛 CLI debugger for agents</h2> Coding agents can now run <code>npx playwright test --debug=cli</code> to attach and debug tests over <code>playwright-cli</code> — perfect for automatically fixing tests in agentic workflows: <div class="highlight highlight-source-shell notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="$ npx playwright test --debug=cli ### Debugging Instructions - Run "playwright-cli attach tw-87b59e" to attach to this test $ playwright-cli attach tw-87b59e ### Session `tw-87b59e` created, attached to `tw-87b59e`.

Alleged Kimwolf Botmaster ‘Dort’ Arrested, Charged in U.S. and Canada

Canadian authorities on Wednesday arrested a 23-year-old Ottawa man on suspicion of building and operating Kimwolf, a fast spreading Internet-of-Things botnet that enslaved millions of devices for use in a series of massive distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks over the past six months. KrebsOnSecurity publicly named the suspect in February 2026 after the accused launched a volley of DDoS, doxing and swatting campaigns against this author and a security researcher. He now faces criminal hacking charges in both Canada and the United States.
