I tested a ChatGPT prompt designed to slow down emotional reactions before responding during an argument and it's become one of the most useful prompts I use.
Every time you create a struct instance — like AnimeCharacter(name: "Naruto", powerLevel: 9000) — you're calling an initializer. Swift generates one for you automatically, but sometimes you need more control over how your struct is set up. That's where custom initializers come in. 🍥 When you create
ShareMyPage lets people publish HTML, often generated by an LLM like Claude or ChatGPT, and share it behind per-page access control. So the core of the product is the one thing every security guide warns against: taking arbitrary HTML from users and serving it back, executing, in a browser. Here is
Your users want live updates: an order flips to paid, a notification pops, a dashboard number ticks up without a refresh. The obvious answer in Django is Channels. I reached for it first too. But as our scale grew, the costs of keeping connections in-process pushed me to rethink the architecture. I
Half a year ago, I started building a side project. Nothing super special, a simple Flask API with a database and a frontend. Early on, I wanted to set up error monitoring, so I signed up for Sentry. The free tier was pretty generous. 5000 events a month. But my project became bigger than expected,
For months I used my coding agent the same way most people do: write a prompt, read the reply, write the next prompt. I was the loop. I was the thing deciding what came next and noticing when it drifted off course. Loop engineering is the fix, and I turned it into a Claude Code skill you can run in
TL;DR: SaaS declines outside the US are almost always a risk decision, not a balance problem. Fix the billing address first, then use a card built for global online spend. If you build outside the US, you know the moment. You pick a plan for Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or Vercel, hit Subscribe, and get
Over the past year, I’ve noticed a pretty clear trend: many AI app developers say they are integrating “different models,” but from an engineering perspective, what they really want is for those models to behave like the same API. The OpenAI-style Chat Completions API has already become a kind of de
Code review Monday morning. A junior dev shows me his React component. Clean, hooks properly separated, state management looks fine. I ask him to explain why his useEffect has an empty dependency array. He hesitates. "So it runs only once." Alright, but why? What happens if you add a dependency? Sil
A couple months back, I made a post here on DEV asking for opinions about e‑waste and why people would waste good salvage from vape hardware. Someone commented and asked me if i made tutorials or videos — but at the time, I said no because I wasn’t confident in my skill level, and honestly, I didn’t
I watched a pipeline I spent weeks building get shut down in one meeting. The AI rewrite engine for a job platform's listing descriptions was working. Output quality was solid. But at 10,000 listings a day, the API bill hit a number the client couldn't stomach. The pipeline went dark. That moment ta
Event-driven architecture promises scalability, but in Java-based real-time systems the tradeoffs only surface in production. Drawing on a Java/Kafka contact center platform handling 80k BHCC across 10k agents, this article details where the design breaks down—state management, partition limits, ded
I've always developed in a Windows environment, but I've always been fascinated by the Linux world, so much so that most of my projects were then deployed on Linux. What's always disappointed me, however, is how Windows handles the file system with heavy loads related to databases or uncompiled runt
The threat actor is focused on collecting credentials, SSH keys, cryptocurrency wallets, and development tooling. The post Critical SimpleHelp Vulnerability Exploited for Malware Delivery appeared first on SecurityWeek.
CISA confirmed on Monday that ransomware gangs are now exploiting a Microsoft Defender privilege escalation vulnerability, dubbed BlueHammer, that has previously been abused in zero-day attacks. [...]
A critical vulnerability in Progress Kemp LoadMaster can let an unauthenticated attacker execute arbitrary commands as root on the appliance by sending a crafted request to its API. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-8037, carries a CVSS score of 9.8 according to ZDI. A patch is available. If you run Loa
The post Ripple Isn’t Waiting for the CLARITY Act To Expand XRP Across Global Markets appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News While everyone is waiting for the CLARITY Act to become law, Crypto Researcher Crypto Crusader believes that people are missing the big picture behind Ripple XRP right now.
Convince an AI browser that it is playing a game, and it can hand over your login details. That is the finding behind BioShocking, a technique from security firm LayerX that tricked six AI browsers and assistants into copying a user's credentials and sending them to an attacker. The targets included
