Show: AI characters that don't just chat — they use apps
I made an AI character platform where your character doesn't just chat — it lives in a desktop with apps. You create a character, give it a personality. You set up a mod — think of it as a scenario or world. Then you talk to it. The difference is: your character can actually do things. It plays musi
Building a Multilingual Sentiment Analysis API with Google Gemini — Free Tier Only
I was building a social listening tool for a client. They wanted sentiment analysis on 10K+ tweets daily. Every SaaS ML API quoted me $200-500/month. Then I realized: Google Gemini's free tier could handle this. I built the entire thing in a weekend. Three months later, we're processing 50K+ text sa
It Wasn't Brave. It Was Just Tuesday.
This is a submission for the 2026 WeCoded Challenge: Echoes of Experience My grandfather loved chess and mathematics. My mother wanted to be a librarian and became a programmer instead.

5 Python Engineering Patterns for Resilience and Scale
Intro Hello, one more time. We’ve covered memory-dominant models and structural internals. But as we move into 2026, the complexity of our distributed systems is outstripping our ability to track them.

Jira Board for Everyday Life
Do you use a task manager in your everyday life? I’ve been using a task manager since school. It started with a simple to-do list in my notebook. Later, when smartphones became common, I created my first digital to-do list on my phone. Today, there are many tools to manage your tasks: Notion Obsidia

Going to Production: Spot Instances, Karpenter, and the Graviton Advantage
The mathematics of Kubernetes in production is brutal and undeniable.

SJF4J: A Structured JSON Facade for Java
Introduction Working with JSON in Java usually means choosing between two approaches: Data binding (POJO) — strong typing, but rigid Tree model (JsonNode / Map) — flexible, but unstructured Most libraries force you to pick one and live with the trade-offs. SJF4J (Simple JSON Facade for Java) takes a
I Built an Instant SEO Audit API — Here's What I Learned About Technical SEO
I was consulting for an agency that ran 50+ client audits monthly. They'd use Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, SEMrush—paying hundreds in subscription fees. Then I asked: why can't we build this? Six weeks later, the Degani SEO Audit API was live. It runs 5K daily audits now. Free. Most agencies focus on key
How I Built a Multi-Tenant WhatsApp Automation Platform Using n8n and WAHA
TL;DR: I run WhatsApp automation workflows for 50+ businesses on shared infrastructure using n8n (queue mode), WAHA (unofficial WhatsApp Web API), Supabase, and Chatwoot. This is the technical deep-dive into how the multi-tenant architecture works, the problems I solved, and what it costs. I'm a sol

The Morning vs Evening Habit Tracker: What the Data Actually Shows
Most habit apps do not care WHEN you complete a habit. HabitStock does -- and it changes everything. HabitStock visualizes habits as a stock price chart. Every completion drives the price up. Every miss causes decay. But unlike other apps, the price algorithm accounts for when you complete, not just
NPR Music: Kronos Quartet: Tiny Desk Concert
The legendary Kronos Quartet, sporting a nearly new lineup (three out of four members are fresh!), just rocked the Tiny Desk again, and they're having more fun than ever!

How I Set Up Server-Side GTM Tracking with Stape.io, GA4 and Google Ads on a Drupal 11 Marketplace
When I relaunched Parksy — a two-sided parking marketplace — on Drupal 11, I knew I needed rock-solid conversion tracking. Browser-side GTM alone wasn't going to cut it. Ad blockers, iOS privacy changes, and cookie restrictions were killing data quality. So I went full server-side. The Stack Step 1:
How to Make Claude, Codex, and Gemini Collaborate on Your Codebase
You know that moment when Claude Code has been spinning on the same TypeScript error for the third time? You paste the same context, try rephrasing your prompt, and it still misses the fix. What if Claude could just... ask Codex for help? That's not a hypothetical anymore. I've been running a setup
Scanning BLE Devices with C++ and Boost Using the BleuIO Dongle
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) has become one of the most widely used wireless technologies for IoT devices, sensors, wearables, and industrial monitoring systems. Developers working with embedded systems, automation platforms, and hardware integration often rely on C++ because of its performance, low-l
Tracking Your Database Health Score Over Time
Database tuning has an accountability problem. You spend two hours on a Tuesday fixing autovacuum settings, dropping unused indexes, and creating missing ones. Your team asks "did it help?" and the best you can offer is "queries feel faster." Without trend data, you cannot prove the work mattered --
🤖 Why LLMs are Addicted to Tailwind (and How to Feed the Addiction in React Native)
If you've been using AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or ChatGPT lately, you’ve probably noticed something fundamentally changing about how we write UI. These tools are churning out components at blistering speeds. But there’s an open secret in the AI coding world: LLMs are absolute
