This is probably my longest one yet. It’s also my rantiest. So get ready lmao. I’ll be honest with you up front, this whole thing has a lot of weird ups and downs. That’s just how…

I used Codex to build out a real project, a dictionary generator for Dungeon Crawler Carl. It’s also generically, mostly, usable on all fandoms wikis. I tried not touching any code, just…

I’ve known about file local variables for a long time. I also knew about the eval keyword, which can be used as a file variable, but instead of binding the given value to the (non-existent) variable…

I run FF-16 on notepad.exe from Windows, twice with different parameters. With the -cpf 40 parameter, the result of the run is shown on the left side of the image. With the -cpf 40 -z 2 parameter,…

An 8 GB VPS at 90% memory, 50,000 Cloudflare purge jobs in one cycle, and 12 Horizon supervisors running wild. Here is how I brought LaraPlugins.io back under control, with real numbers.

I recently got six months of free access to OpenAI’s advanced coding models because of my open-source contributions. I posted about it on X. It’s an incredibly generous offer, and I’ve been using…

The last several weeks have been busy. Ever since I got laid off, I thought I’d have more time. And in some ways, I do. But with a little one at home, my hands are almost always full. Besides…

Bigger context windows, more memory, larger models, tool calls, higher token costs, and extended reasoning modes all collide to increase latency. What used to take two or three minutes can now take…

Agentic scaffolding: skills for autonomy, hooks for blockers, and a reliability constraint hierarchy for everything in between.

“The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.” — Mark Twain While Mark Twain did not actually say that , I do share the sentiment - I commute into the city (from Cupertino) 3 days a…

I’ve been seeing the same anti-pattern everywhere lately.Someone opens Cursor, Copilot or Claude and pastes a giant prompt: Be a principal security engineer, SRE, performance engineer and…

Learn how to write a coding agent in this Python tutorial that teaches how to interact with an LLM through an API, how to manage the conversation context, and how to do tool calling. Introduction…

The agentic personal assistant architecture relies on an agentic loop, typically controlled through chat interfaces bridged to WhatsApp or Telegram. Within this architecture, the agentic loop can:(a)…

I’m building In the Long Run where runners do virtual runs on famous routes around the world. The app tallies up your Strava mileage and plots your total distance as progress against country-…

Code reviews made sense when coding was slow and expensive. Then AI broke the rules. Thousands of lines a minute, reviews still taking hours, senior engineers drowning. The fix isn't more AI. It's…

>- Deep dive into three advanced OpenClaw workflows - local RAG knowledge base, LinkedIn post generation with Buffer, and blog idea generator. Plus understanding OpenClaw's memory architecture.

MrAnderson 0.6 is out. If you’ve never heard of it, that’s perfectly fine - it’s the kind of tool that’s supposed to do its job quietly and stay out of sight. cider-nrepl has been using MrAnderson to…

In the previous post we projected scale plans onto 3D model surface: In this post we will use so-called “texture baking” method to unwrap this image into the UV space. This way we create an accurate…

I often hear that AI is resulting in 10k LOC reviews and this is creating a bottleneck. I don't think you should waste time reviewing every single line of code in here and just use AI to review it!…

My Prime Day 2026 smart home deals shortlist for Home Assistant users, with buying checks, affiliate placeholders, and practical automation ideas.

In the previous post I shared a couple small scripts I use with Git. I automate a lot of the repetition in my development workflow to make tasks not just easier but also more reliable. Automation…

Matching is in NC Matching theory is one of the richest gold mines of ideas and results in mathematics, computer science, and beyond. Recently, Abhranil Chatterjee, Sumanta Ghosh, Rohit Gurjar,…

The hardest part is getting your data out of Gel in a useable format, the rest is easy (but mind your links on the way in, warning near the end).

This document serves as a corrolary to this issue on aep.dev, including my thoughts to remove the soft delete pattern.

In the previous article we looked at how the kernel gives every process its own private view of memory. But memory is only half of what a process needs to actually run. The other half is the CPU…

iOS 27 gives AsyncImage more control over remote image loading with URLRequest support for custom headers, cache policies, and timeouts, plus the ability to provide a custom URLSession across a…

An alignment quirk on Intel and AMD CPUs: keeping a Go array 8-byte aligned (vs offset 4) makes clearing it up to 49% faster, thanks to how REP STOSQ works.

Greetings surveyors! This is a small release which addresses a memory leak at the engine level. I’m excited to share the release date for the final expansio...

I had an odd experience the other day with an open source project. That project was dirge . It's clearly and unashamedly developed with heavy use of generative AI, both in the code and in the PRs.…

Well, politics aside I thought I'd talk about my game engine and some of the new terrain systems I'm working on. There have been a couple of images and videos on the old YouTube channel with some of…

I added support to Cache Out for the following browsers today: Vivaldi Arc Dia The remaining browsers from here have small market share. I'm not sure they're worth doing. If I do,…

Tutorial Part 1 got SangamIO running on the vacuum, exposing its motors, wheel encoders, IMU and LiDAR over TCP port 5555. Part 2 connects that to ROS 2 the easy way — a prebuilt Docker image that…

I think it is fair to say that I have had an eclectic career in computing. I’ve worked for some of the largest computer companies in the world and I have spent a good bit of time in the classroom…

On June 21, 2026 I switched the site from Jekyll to Astro and rebuilt the theme from scratch. Here's why.

Caveat lector This post discusses tools reluctantly written with AI assistance. If you don’t entertain using them under any circumstance, and think even reading about them legally compromise…

The Chesterton’s fence analogy says that you need to be careful to change things if you don’t understand why things are the way they are, because there may be good reasons you haven’t considered yet.…

Everyone's saying we should write loops, not prompts. Strip away the novelty and it's automation — with one new thing sitting inside the loop's body.

Clean and simple are two different questions, not two words for good code. They have different natures — clean means the same thing at every level, simple only has meaning at one level at a time —…

Part 2 — how the git proxy intercepts HTTPS, forces a parseable pack, logs every commit, pins the objects with marker refs, and survives the sharp edges of a signed, atomic protocol.

A person-owned architecture for what AI agents are allowed to know about you — claims, provenance, consent, and portability, exposed to agents over MCP.
