`Datasette` `1.0a31` adds write SQL and stored queries

Permissions now cover insert/update/delete workflows directly in the SQL UI. Good fit for lightweight internal admin tools on SQLite, but still alpha.

[ KEY POINTS ]

Users with the right permissions can run write queries against a database, turning Datasette from read-only browsing into a small data editing surface.
Stored queries replace the old canned-query naming and can be saved privately or shared with other members of the same instance.
The new execute-query UI starts from templated insert, update, and delete queries for editable tables, reducing hand-written SQL mistakes.
Permission checks block operations like create table when the user lacks that grant, so this can back simple ops panels without opening full DB access.

`Garnix` Hosting Shuts Down on July 15, 2026

GarnixNix-based hosting SaaS — open-source self-hosting path
The hosting service is ending during the Shopify transition. Users get an open-source escape hatch, but hosted workloads need migration planning now.
- Garnix hosting ends on July 15, 2026; any production or preview workloads must move before that date.
- The codebase is being open-sourced, so self-hosted or shared community instances can replace the managed service.
- Community instance operation is still only partially described, so treat it as a migration path, not a guaranteed managed alternative.

`Vercel Sandboxes` Adds Public Binding for Port `8080`

Vercel SandboxesCloud sandbox runtime — runs code on Vercel infrastructure
Apps can now bind 8080 directly through the ingress domain. Small but useful when templates, dev servers, or agents assume 8080 by default.
- Port 8080 was previously reserved for the sandbox controller; that controller moved to 23456, freeing the common app port.
- Ingress support means services listening on 8080 can be opened directly, reducing custom port rewrites in sandboxed dev flows.
- This mostly helps compatibility with existing templates and tools. Not a platform shift, but fewer sharp edges in Vercel previews.

`Stripe` Still Leaves Merchants Exposed to Friendly Fraud
50radar
Delivery proof did not stop a post-purchase dispute. For physical goods, payment setup needs dispute evidence workflows from day one.
- Friendly fraud means a customer receives the product, then denies the charge. Stripe has many payment signals, but that does not guarantee protection.
- The cited case had DHL delivery proof after a first order, yet the buyer blamed a bank error and never corrected it. Evidence alone may not recover cash.
- Physical-goods SaaS or micro-commerce needs dispute SOPs: delivery logs, customer messages, risk flags, and clear refund boundaries.
