Dos Protocolos de Agentes aos Runtimes Semânticos

Por que o AllasCode, meu runtime Zig com uma arquitetura um evolutiva, adaptativa, generativa, anti-fragil e com auto-cura baseada em intenção; precisa de uma camada acima de MCP, A2A e Wasm. Os sistemas agentivos estão evoluindo rapidamente. Hoje já temos protocolos para agentes conversarem com ferramentas, protocolos para agentes conversarem com outros agentes, runtimes para executar tarefas de longa duração, mecanismos de observabilidade, motores de políticas e plataformas capazes de ex...

7 System Design Interview Mistakes That Sink Strong Engineers

Most candidates who fail a system design interview know enough. They know what a cache is. They can explain sharding. They have watched the YouTube design five times. They still fail. Not because of what they know, but because of how they use it in 45 minutes. Interviewers score a short list of signals. Can you scope an ambiguous problem? Can you make a choice and defend it? Can you find the weak spot in your own design? Can you run the conversation? The seven mistakes below break th...

Server-render an SVG map with no map library

Showing a dot on a map usually means a vendor, an API key, and a script to load. That is a lot of machinery for a drawing. You can skip all of it. The race pages on FieldRank , a rankings site for trail runners, do: the server draws each map as SVG from free public data, and the map needs nothing else to load. The drawing is the easy part. The labels are where it gets hard, and they are what this tutorial builds up to. By the end you'll have one Node script that writes a labeled map of the A...

From Agent Protocols to Semantic Agent Runtimes

A simpler way to understand where agentic architecture is going The current generation of agentic systems is already solving several difficult problems. Agents can call tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). They can communicate with other agents through the Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A). They can execute isolated workloads through sandboxes and increasingly portable WebAssembly components. They can propagate distributed traces, authenticate remote identities, and apply policies befo...

8. Synthetic customers, part 1: can a fake shopper judge your recommender?

source link: https://4thwithme.dev/blog/synthetic-customers-theory/ Picture a shop that sells colored and flavored toilet paper. Mint. Lavender. Bacon. You build a new "customers also liked" box. Offline, it scores well. You ship it to half the traffic. Three weeks later, the A/B test (a live split test) shows no difference. That is the normal story. This post is about a faster check: fake customers. Let them click on your box first. It is part 1 of 2. Part 1 is what the research says....

AI scheduling assistants: what they actually automate in 2026

An AI scheduling assistant is not a better booking link. A booking link publishes the gaps in your calendar; an AI scheduler decides what those gaps should be. It moves your tasks around your meetings, defends the hours you need to actually deliver work, and rearranges the week when a client pushes a call. That distinction is the whole category — and it's why freelancers who try one expecting "Calendly with AI" usually abandon it in a fortnight. This guide explains what these tools genuinely ...

We removed 98.77% of an LLM’s input. Accuracy went up.

The obvious fix for an AI app missing information is to give it more context. But what happens when the context contains three versions of the truth? An old price. A replacement price. A correction entered today that applies to last week. All three can be relevant to the question. Only some belong in the answer. I’m the founder of Jylus. We ran a frozen 528-question benchmark comparing three ways of supplying evidence to the same model. Here’s what we observed: Evidence ...

I Built My Developer Portfolio to Feel Like an Experience, Not a Resume

I recently finished building and deploying my personal developer portfolio. I didn’t want another portfolio that was simply About → Skills → Projects → Contact I wanted the website itself to represent how I like to build things. So I experimented with interactive sections, motion, 3D elements, project storytelling, and a visual identity around my interests in software engineering, AI, backend development, and robotics. What I focused on A strong interactive landing experience A custo...

Go Web Frameworks in 2026: net/http, chi, Gin, Echo, Fiber Compared

Go ships a production-capable HTTP server in its standard library, and since Go 1.22 the built-in router handles method matching and path parameters on its own. The framework question has narrowed, not disappeared. Five stacks cover almost every Go backend decision in 2026: the standard library's net/http , chi, Gin, Echo, and Fiber. Each takes a different position on the same tradeoff — what the library gives you versus what you owe it in dependencies, conventions, and ecosystem compatibili...

Parse a TikTok Profile URL Without Keeping Tracking Parameters

People paste profile links from chats, browsers, and share sheets. Those links can carry query parameters that are irrelevant to identifying the account. A small parser should extract a handle from the profile path, reject unrelated hosts, and leave the original URL out of the lookup key. I built TikStories to accept a public TikTok handle or profile URL and show currently active public Stories. The example below is a standalone parsing exercise, not a copy of the site's internal code. It d...

Comparing Prometheus Pull and Push API Custom Metrics for Small SaaS Node.js

Short answer: start with a push-style metrics API when a small Node.js team needs to judge a flagged property-pricing rule from a few application-level signals. Choose Prometheus plus Grafana when scrape-based infrastructure coverage, Kubernetes integrations, or sophisticated querying matter more than setup weight. The deciding variable is signal quality versus noise, not dashboard polish. For a solo founder, Infrai's native surface also exposes consistent per-call cost, vendor, and latency m...

Why We Left SleekFlow After Its AI Agent Started Confidently Lying to Customers

The problem wasn’t the AI agent talking fast. It was the AI agent talking fast and wrong — with no log showing why. Booking.com lost €1,400 after their AI chatbot confidently told a customer to pay by bank transfer. No “maybe,” no “check this”—just a flat wrong answer. The money was gone before anyone re-read the thread. Five days of support tickets followed while the price doubled on the same booking listing. No audit trail existed to show which source backed the bot’s info. That mistake kil...

Show HN: Halo – A Personal AI with On-Device Harness, Memory and Browser Agent

Halo is privacy focused personal assistant for iOS that uses a custom built agent harness with support to use you existing LLM subscriptions, Wiki based memory system backed by on-device RAG, a full-fledged local browser agent, chat with generative UI and more. TLDR: It's a better version of Hermes/OpenClaw for iOS, without needing a server! The better part is its proactive feature set and UX. --- I started building Halo last year with 3 goals in mind: - Surface what’s important before I have t...

Show HN: The mainbrella effect – AI code / Agent machines

Hi, my name is Andrew and I'm the founder of mainbrella co. Just a few days ago Cloudflare launched their container sandbox service. That inspired me to see what I could build in terms of a better e2b.dev or daytona.io type system. It is all open source GPL 3.0 and we offer the same services as the other players. We have no free plan (our base builder plan is $5 a month) but you are welcome to run the code in your own Cloudflare account. The numbers are pretty good in terms of startup speed. Fir...

I've been having a hard time finding a solution. Is there really no commercialized model that I can feed in a reference sound and text instruction and get another sound out? Right now having a multimodal inputs to image or text output is a commodotized, solved problem. IE you can put a prompt for some image and use a reference image to guide the model on what you want. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words right? Ive also used a text and audio input in order to get a text description or...
