How I Built a Free Twitch Emote Resizer Tool As a Twitch streamer, I always struggled with getting my emotes sized correctly for upload. Twitch requires specific pixel dimensions: 28×28, 56×56, and 112×112 pixels. Even being one pixel off causes the upload to fail. I decided to build a free tool to
If you've worked on more than one enterprise Angular application, you've probably seen this pattern: a CustomerTableComponent, an OrdersTableComponent, an InvoicesTableComponent, and three or four more that all look suspiciously similar. Each one sorts a little differently. Each one paginates a litt
The problem: agents forget your project every session If you pair with a coding agent, you have lived this: a new session starts and the context is gone. The agent re-discovers your auth flow, re-guesses why a decision was made, re-reads the same files to rebuild a mental model you already explained
Vercel m'a longtemps convenu. Tu pousses ton code, trente secondes plus tard c'est en ligne avec un certificat valide, un CDN et des previews par branche. Pour démarrer un projet, je ne connais rien de plus confortable. Le problème arrive après, quand le projet vit. La facture grimpe avec le trafic
Living in the UAE means constantly Googling numbers: what is the visa fee now, how much zakat do I owe, what is today's fuel price, how is my gratuity calculated. The answers online are usually outdated. So I built Adad, a free set of 15 calculators that pull from official UAE government sources and
As a Full Stack Developer & AI/ML Specialist, I wanted a way to showcase my contributions that actually felt alive. I didn't just want a grid of green squares; I wanted a universe. So, I built GitPulse. What is GitPulse? Instead of just seeing numbers, you experience your code history visually. The
In the previous article on hosting a Next.js app on a VPS, I'd left the deployment pipeline as a rough sketch: four lines to say "it ships to production on its own when you push." That's the piece I want to open up here, because it's what separates a VPS you fuss over by hand from infrastructure you
If you run automations that summarize, classify, or pull fields out of text at volume, the LLM step is where per-token pricing turns budgeting into a guessing game: one batch of long inputs and the bill spikes. For these bounded-output jobs, a flat price per call fits better than a per-token frontie
It's cool in theory, but lacks any real practical application.
Prime Day may be over, but the Best Buy TechFest sale is still underway. Here are my top last-minute deals you can get before midnight.
My smart home camera alerts used to be useless, but now they tell me what actually happened
Here's how to watch Austrian Grand Prix 2026 from anywhere in the world as it feels like the F1 championship race has come to life.
The upgrade I almost made wouldn't have solved much
It fixed a home screen problem I didn't know how to solve
Thermal cameras have saved me thousands over the years. Just the other day, one simple check saved me $1,000.
If you are building a feature that talks to an API, you test it thoroughly. Postman on your laptop, maybe a simulator or two, everything looks clean. You ship. Then, within hours, someone on an actual iPhone, on an actual cellular connection, hits a timeout. Or a header behaves differently. Or the a
This article is intended for those who, like me, are interested in profiling and performance optimization. Key Takeaways (TL;DR): Offload CPU-bound crypto: Move synchronous operations like Argon2id into a ThreadPoolExecutor to stop them from blocking the asyncio event loop. Choose the right algorith
Hey All, I’ve been working on a safety application named SafePulse recently and ran into a massive architectural flaw with most existing SOS systems: they rely entirely on cloud servers to analyze telemetry and detect crashes. If an accident happens in a rural area with no network, the app is comple
