Before I released my own AI chatbot plugin, I ran it through a security review. It came back with 35 bugs, three of them critical, and the one that made my stomach drop was an HTML injection coming straight out of unsanitized model output. At the time, that felt like my low point as a developer. The
When a Constructor Became a Security Boundary I was auditing the initialization layer of one of my Rust systems when I noticed something that looked completely harmless. A constructor accepted an object that wasn't fully valid yet and relied on a later validation step to reject it if something was w
Originally published on the Invoance blog. Most teams treat AI outputs like ephemeral function returns. The model responds, the response goes to the user, maybe a row gets written to a database, and that is the entire trail. When a customer disputes an answer six months later, when a regulator asks
My first meeting at Converse was a 50-person standup. The scrum lead had every engineer type their status into an application. She would present it. Then they would read it off the screen, one by one, as the rest of us watched. Twenty software engineers. Six QA. Status after status after status, rea
This is a topic many beginners overlook until they encounter performance issues in production. One of the biggest surprises for developers is discovering that an application that worked perfectly during development suddenly becomes slow when real users start using it. A Django application serving te
To run a task every 5 minutes in Python you need Celery + Redis + Celery Beat + a worker process + a dedicated Dockerfile. In Fitz it's a decorator. With retry, timezone, persistence, and catch-up inside the language. Your client is happy with the API. It's running. Then they ask for three things: "
Para correr una task cada 5 minutos en Python necesitás Celery + Redis + Celery Beat + worker process + Dockerfile dedicado. En Fitz es un decorador. Con retry, timezone, persistencia y catch-up adentro del lenguaje. Tu cliente está contento con la API. Está corriendo. Entonces te pide tres cosas: "
Recently I developed a new feature for this Github Action to automate the creation of AWS Cloudwatch alarms. 1- Your project should use the github actions 2- Your user must have permissions to create an OpenID Connect IDP, policies, and roles in your AWS account. 3- AWS CLI installed on your compute
One of the easiest traps to fall into when building a design system is accidentally recreating CSS. At first, it seems harmless. You add a few utility classes. Then a few responsive options. Then a few layout helpers. Then a few exceptions. Before long, you've built an entirely new syntax for doing
The problem is straightforward to state and surprisingly hard to solve correctly. Celery workers are synchronous. Celery spawns prefork worker processes, and when a task arrives, it calls your task function like this: task_function(*args, **kwargs). It expects a return value. It blocks the worker th
hello ! im a CS student (2nd year) and ive been look around for some tech jobs. any kind because honestly i just want a tech related job (i <3 tech). but the problem is,so many jobs/places want you to have experience in the real-world but literally no one is willing to offer it. they want minimum 3-
I've built enough projects to know that environment variable validation isn't glamorous — until your app silently uses undefined as a database URL. There are a bunch of tools for this now, and picking the wrong one means either fighting your tool or fighting your own config. Here's how they stack up
AWS launches a new serverless compute primitive, AWS Lambda MicroVMs. VM-level, isolated sandboxes with no shared kernel or resources between sessions. Rapid launch and resume, full lifecycle control, state preservation up to 8 hours, no infrastructure to manage.

Bitcoin’s funding rate and orderbook setup signal investor optimism, but ETF outflows and macro red flags could limit BTC’s short-term upside.
The idea of a U.S. central bank digital currency — though little more than a research topic at the Federal Reserve — may be getting formally blocked.
