Long Story Short After using tools like Playwright MCP that can return large tool results, continuing to work with that context still in the session can make subsequent processing heavier. Since then, when I finish testing with Playwright MCP and do not need that context for the next task, I use
"What did you do for AI?" "I brought the scars." — Randal L. Schwartz SPOCK: "Dr. Daystrom, a computer is incapable of standard creative thought. It must be programmed. How did you instruct the M-5 to construct new data banks, to create new circuitry?" DAYSTROM: "By using a new method, Mr. Spo
GitHub Copilot usage metrics reports now include generally available metrics for activity in the dedicated VS Code Agents window, helping you measure adoption and engagement across enterprises and organizations. What’s… The post Add VS Code Agents to Copilot usage metrics appeared first on The GitHu
You can read a hundred explanations of a linked list and still freeze when someone asks you to reverse one in an interview. You know the definition. You've seen the diagram. You've even solved the problem once, last Tuesday, with the tab still open. The problem isn't knowledge. It's that you've nev
Parlotype's UI was English-only, with the copy baked into markup and C#: 211 literal attributes across 26 .axaml files, roughly 200 string literals across 48 view models, plus the tray menu, the dialogs and the toasts. I wanted Russian and Spanish, and I wanted the ninth language to cost one transla
Somewhere along the way, DevOps became a tooling conversation. Ask someone how mature their DevOps practice is and the answer will often involve CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, infrastructure as code, observability, deployment frequency, or some combination of the above. All valuable tools, but
Hey all! I hope you're well. I'm looking to host a small forum/Message board for my Roleplay group. It's going to be largely a private, invite only site. I don't foresee more than 40 people using it, max, so I'm not looking to break the bank on buying the best software out there, and my bandwidth n
The naive version, and exactly how it fails Every geospatial feature starts life like this: ` js // do not ship this const donors = await Donor.find({ bloodType: 'B-', isAvailable: true }); const nearby = donors .map(d => ({ d, km: haversine(request.coords, d.coords) })) .filter(x =&g
Watching some people use AI for software development right now feels uncomfortably close to watching people gamble. The behavioural patterns seem similar to me. Every time you place a bet, you're chasing a hit of some feel-good hormone. You bet, you win, you get the rush, you bet again, you lose. Y
Unlike Caesar, each letter is replaced by a different letter according to an arbitrary mapping (not a simple shift). We solve it by comparing the letter frequency of the ciphertext to the known letter frequency in English, and guessing short words (the, and, a...). Platform: picoGym Category: Cr
Most file tools on the internet work like this: upload, process on a server, download. The moment you upload a contract, a design file, or a video, a copy of it exists on someone else's infrastructure. Data privacy is not a feature add-on — it is a design decision. Modern browsers changed what is p
The Classic Paradox: Trusting AI Agents with Hardcoded Secrets Whenever teams start integrating autonomous AI agents into their core infrastructure (GitLab, MariaDB, OpenProject, Portainer), the first instinct is often: "Let's just pass the API token or DB password into the system prompt or environ
An AI team that never gets tired also never gets embarrassed. Part 1: I made Claude Code think before it codes Part 2: ... then I gave it a team Part 3: this one. There is a sentence that started appearing in my pull requests, and for about three weeks I thought it was the most reassuring thing
As of today, a manufacturer who puts software or hardware on the EU market under its own name is obliged to report actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe security incidents. Here is a quick explainer if you want the details: https://youtu.be/IQkzg7quc58 There is quite a lot of ambiguity over
When building APIs, developers usually spend a lot of time thinking about authentication, validation, performance, and database design. But there is another concept that can quietly prevent some very serious production problems: idempotency. It becomes especially important when an API performs an ac
I've been learning Linux command line and going through MIT's Missing Semester course over the past few weeks, and I wanted a real project to apply it to instead of just following along with exercises. A friend is sending me an old PC next week, and my plan is to turn it into a Pi-hole — a network-
Just to be upfront, I'm on the Squarespace team, so take that into context. I spent a while trying to build a site with AI tools from scratch, mostly to see how far they'd get without a traditional builder underneath. The first-draft part was solid. AI handled rough copy, gave me section ideas, got
A new option for building interactive web interfaces has arrived in the Rust ecosystem. WebForms Core is a technology owned and developed by Elanat. It now has a Rust implementation available as the webformscore crate, allowing Rust developers to use the WebForms Core programming model with Rust we
Hello, I'm Maneshwar, and I'm building LiveReview — a blast-radius aware AI code review built for your business-critical systems. Star us to help devs discover the project, give it a try, and share your feedback to help improve the product. Your Uber says the driver is 7 minutes away. They show up
# I Spent 3 Months Testing Every AI Automation Framework. Here Is the One That Actually Worked. I tried every "AI automation" framework, course, and prompt collection I could find. Most were recycled listicles with zero testing behind them. After 3 months of building real automations for clients,
