I shipped a small side project last week, a Rice Purity Test, and a couple of the build details turned out more interesting than the quiz itself. Two in particular: making the result screen recolor itself based on your score, and exporting a share card to PNG entirely in the browser. Notes below in
One of the strangest things about AI engineering is that your test suite can be 100% green while your product is getting worse. Traditional software taught us to think in absolutes: pass/fail correct/incorrect deterministic/non-deterministic AI systems force us to think in distributions, thresholds,
I built a tool to learn languages through songs — now I'm testing if anyone actually wants it I've been learning Spanish through Bad Bunny and Korean through BTS for a while. Every time I wanted to understand a song, I did the same dance: Open YouTube, play the song Open Genius in another tab, find
A practical guide to the numbers, the framing, and the conversation you need to have with the people who control the budget. Every engineering leader who has tried to get budget approved for testing infrastructure has run into the same wall. The technical case is obvious to the team writing the code
Human-in-the-loop (HITL) in AI means keeping a person involved in an automated system's decisions — approving, editing, or interrupting what an AI does — instead of letting it run fully on its own. For AI agents, human-in-the-loop is the practice of pausing the agent at chosen points so a human can

You know, that thrilling moment when you realize you’re about to leap into a whole new realm of possibilities? But here’s the kicker: it seems like many of us are starin
What we shipped on 2026-06-23 We spent a good chunk of today fighting "hallucinated" authority in our content. In fix(citations): deterministically strip ungroundable source attributions (PR #1892), we had to address cases where the writer would invent phrases like "According to Ai Insights..." or "
Had yet another conversation yesterday with a team burning themselves on a Redis cache misconfiguration. Hot keys, thundering herd, memory policy oversights — the usual scars. One of the replies on the HN thread mentioned something that keeps showing up in these discussions: they just use a database
Most teams invest heavily in locking down inbound traffic — ingress rules, service meshes, mutual TLS — while leaving outbound traffic largely uncontrolled. That oversight creates a significant attack surface: a compromised container can silently reach out to an adversary-controlled server, exfiltra

Have you ever tried to build an automation that works so well it bypasses the very rules you set for it? Recently, I was working on a small repository designed to automate the painful process of updating my resume. The idea was simple: build a system that runs weekly, checks my social media activity
With an eye on the huge downstream pressure that AI code tools are putting on software engineering teams, GitLab released The post Developers are now validating code they didn’t write — and may not understand appeared first on The New Stack.
The ritual most senior engineers skip Everyone in this field has heard the word "pre-mortem." Almost nobody runs one as an actual habit. The people who do ship cleaner work. The cost is small: about 10 minutes to generate the failure list, 25 to 30 for the whole ritual. What it buys you is avoiding

Every skill security scanner the firm tested it against marked it safe. The payload was harmless by desig
