I've been building AI-powered apps for clients since GPT-3 first dropped, and let me tell you — watching your API bill climb is like watching your rent go up every month. It hurts. Especially when you're on a per-project budget or trying to keep your side hustle profitable. Last month, I was buildin
This is an honest comparison from someone who runs GPU containers in production daily. Both Docker and Podman are excellent container runtimes. But for AI/ML infrastructure in 2026, Docker has pulled ahead in ways that matter if you're building inference services, training pipelines, or agentic AI w
Recently, I came across an essay titled "On the Death of Scaling" by Sara Hooker (Co-founder of Adaption Labs). In this essay, Sara explains the shortcomings of the simple path followed by frontier labs to lead the market. She discusses where the notion of "scaling is death" comes from and what to c
Dozens of members of Congress are urging Apple to reconsider its plan to close the Towson Town Center store in Maryland, accusing the company of retaliating against workers at the first Apple Store in the US to unionize. Here are the details. more…
In a filing in the Washington, D.C. federal court, the SEC also said in a footnote that the settlement if approved will allow Musk to publicly deny its accusations, reflecting a recent policy change governing defendants who settle enforcement actions.
If you write code for research, you've felt this: there's almost certainly a model for your problem, but finding the maintained one means wading through abandoned repos, broken Colab notebooks, and demos that 404. The existence question is solved. ML now touches structure prediction, materials scree
A security reviewer finds a critical issue a day or two before the release of an application. While it's an important issue, it sets the team back weeks, frustrating their product management partners and customers. The review came at the most expensive time in the process. There are many examples of
AMD’s Radeon RX 9070 GRE is a great 1440p GPU that offers a rare treat of value for money amid RAMageddon — delivering a stronger card than Nvidia’s similarly priced RTX 5060 Ti and enhancing its ray tracing capabilities alongside solid FSR Redstone performance.
We investigated why firmware updates were causing our core servers to take four hours to reboot. By diving into UEFI data structures and iPXE automation, we eliminated unnecessary timeouts and cut boot times back down to minutes.
In my last Week in Review post, I shared what I’d been hearing from customers in the AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) workshops I’ve been delivering. Last week I was back at it, this time in Denver for a two-day AI-DLC workshop, where I helped facilitate 17 teams to deliver nearly 20 separat
Every cron library I looked at pulled in a pile of dependencies for what is, fundamentally, a string-to-schedule conversion. So I decided to write one from scratch — and then kept going until I had a complete task scheduler. CronLite is ~5,300 lines of Python. Zero external packages. Everything from
📚 This is Part 1 (Opening) of the UtlKit Tech Series — Next: [Architecture & Trade-offs →] As a frontend developer, I've used countless online tools. And almost all of them suck: Sign-up required — just to format a JSON string? Ad overload — the actual tool gets squeezed into a corner Privacy conce
AI agents are getting smarter fast. They can reason through tasks, manage workflows, call tools, and automate decisions across applications. But as these systems become more capable, one challenge becomes impossible to ignore: reliability. How do you know your AI agent is making the right decisions
There is a special kind of productivity theater that happens during a developer job search. You wake up motivated, open LinkedIn, and apply to 27 positions before breakfast. You press the Easy Apply button with the precision of a professional gamer. By the end of the week, you have submitted 143 app
An LLM-written kernel benchmarked 38% faster on a microbench. Here is what kernel-level validation showed it actually did at runtime. Multi-agent LLMs are now writing CUDA kernels (RightNow AI’s AutoKernel, Meta’s KernelEvolve, a multi-agent system claiming 38% speedup on Blackwell). Source-level be
/ agentic-os Agentic OS A lightweight operational template for AI-assisted product engineering. Agentic OS is the working repo structure for applying the Product Engineer Handbook workflow. It is mainly designed for multi-repo products where planning, product decisions, execution, verification, and
This site is now reachable over Tor as a hidden service, at a .onion address that resolves only inside the Tor network.1 Tor relays and encrypts your traffic as it passes through thousands of volunteer-run servers, so that no single party can link who you are to what you are doing; a hidden service
If you're catching up on highlights or watching the match in public, these are my top headphone picks for you.
Many middleware initiatives are technically successful but operationally disappointing. The integrations work. Data moves between systems. APIs respond correctly. Dashboards show green indicators. Yet six months later, business teams still complain about delays, inconsistent information, and operati
The Eufy Omni S2 excels in just about everything — powerful suction, brilliant, streak-free mopping, a chassis that adapts to the cleaning surface, and a host of handy extras. However, its navigation falls short of class-leading rivals.
