My Journey Through Sorting Algorithms
Over the past few sessions, I got hands-on experience with different sorting algorithms, and honestly, it felt like slowly uncovering how computers “think” when organizing data. What started as simple concepts turned into deeper insights about efficiency, memory, and problem-solving. This was my sta
Troubleshooting Style Conflicts in React Apps: My Developer’s Guide
I know how frustrating it is to deal with unexpected style conflicts in React apps. I have spent countless moments tweaking the look of a new component only to refresh and find that something else broke. I have lost hours on these wild goose chases. Fortunately, I have learned that React comes with
How I Used Anki to "GET CRACKED"
How I Used Anki to "GET CRACKED" I was watching a youtuber Coding Jesus grill CS students with CS Trivia, fun Saturday night ofc. I critiqued his methods I believed this was just useless trivia, but then I realized. I'm a web developer who can't explain what a socket is. It started with a Coding Jes
Stable Metrics, Unstable Systems Most AI systems don’t fail loudly,they shift quiet
In production environments, models can maintain acceptable performance metrics while underlying behavior begins to change. This is where emergent behavior starts to surface,not as a clear anomaly, but as a gradual deviation in how the system responds under real conditions. These shifts are often sub
Audio Chunking for Long-Form Transcription: Splitting and Stitching with ffmpeg + TypeScript
APIs that do speech-to-text — Groq Whisper, OpenAI Whisper, and friends — all have one thing in common: a file size limit. Groq's hard cap is 25MB. A typical one-hour interview at decent quality can easily be 80–150MB. If you just try to send that, you'll get a 413 or a rate-limit error before the t
Invisible Character Bugs
This week I ran into a surprisingly interesting bug while working on a feature that generates diffs for history changes in comments, decription. We have a system that tracks history changes in backend. Whenever there’s a modification, we generate a diff and send both the old and new values to the fr
Feedback needed for my 12yo project that I completely re-wrote this year.
I'm not here to promote anything. I'm just looking for a few developers to spend 15 minutes with it and tell me honestly what they think. That's the part I can't do alone. I've tried almost every password manager out there. I always came back to the same idea - I just want something fast and simple
How We Stopped Fighting Enterprise Auth and Read Calendars With a URL
Reading Microsoft 365 calendars from scripts in locked-down enterprise environments — without Graph API, without OAuth, without any authentication at all. We're building an on-call scheduling tool for our platform engineering team. One of its core features: automatically check who's out of office be

Ephemeral Database Branches in CI/CD: A Practical Guide to Per-PR Environments at Scale
The Shared Staging Database Is Your Pipeline's Weakest Link Two PRs. One staging database. A race condition that took way too long to track down. PR-A adds a NOT NULL column to the users table without a default, which is a perfectly valid migration against an empty column. PR-B's test suite fires up

Production Challenges with SSE
After building a working SSE demo, the next step is making it production-ready. Real-world SSE systems face challenges that simple demos don’t cover. Let’s break them down. Browsers using EventSource automatically reconnect if the connection drops. By default, the retry delay is 3 seconds. You can c
The Last Actor Goes Live: What Happens When Your Korean Fashion Scraper Hits Pay-Per-Event
On March 25, 2026, my Musinsa ranking scraper becomes the 13th — and final — Korean data Actor to activate pay-per-event pricing on Apify. It's the last piece of a portfolio I built from scratch, and the moment the entire system starts generating revenue together. This isn't a technical tutorial (I
Adversarial Attacks and Defenses in Deep Learning Systems: Threats, Mechanisms, and Countermeasures
Hello y'all, I'm back again in 2026🔥🔥 Last Wednesday I just had the opportunity to join in the special talk about Deep Learning Security with Anadi Goyal who's the talented research assistant from IT Guwahati under the topic: "Adversarial Attacks and Defenses in Deep Learning Systems: Threats, Mec
AWS Just Renamed the SysOps Exam and Nobody Noticed — Here's What SOA-C03 Actually Tests Now
If you're still studying for the "AWS SysOps Administrator" exam, I have bad news: it doesn't exist anymore. AWS quietly renamed it to AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer – Associate (SOA-C03) in September 2025. The old SOA-C02 is dead. And the new exam isn't just a rebrand — the content shifted signifi
Why RTK Wasn't Enough (And What I Added)
RTK (Reduce Toolkit) is a solid Rust CLI for reducing AI context size. I used it daily. Then I hit its limits. RTK handles ANSI stripping and basic deduplication well. But real-world CLI output has patterns RTK doesn't catch. I forked it and built ContextZip. ANSI escape code removal Basic line dedu
How to scrape TikTok search results: A complete guide for 2026
TikTok has transformed from a simple video-sharing app into a global cultural engine. With over 1 billion active users, the platform dictates what we listen to, what we buy, and how we communicate. For businesses, marketers, and researchers, TikTok is not just entertainment; it is a repository of re

What I Learned Setting Up OpenClaw (and the Onboarding Path I Wish I Had)
Why I'm Writing This I spent about two weeks getting comfortable with OpenClaw - an open-source AI agent runtime. Not a chatbot, not a coding assistant, but a platform where you connect real communication channels, install skills, and build actual workflows. The tool itself is impressive. But the ge
