What CVE-2026-84411 says about trusting perimeter assumptions on network devices
What CVE-2026-84411 says about trusting perimeter assumptions on network devices
The assumption under test
Network devices are often treated as part of the perimeter rather than as assets inside it. The reasoning is that a device which enforces filtering is itself protected by that filtering. CVE-2026-84411 puts that reasoning under pressure. The flaw is in the RouterOS web management service, it runs before the login check, and CISA's advisory ICSA-26-272-06 rates it 9.8 Critic...

When Should a UK Freelancer Register for VAT?
Most freelancers think VAT registration is something that happens to them — a letter from HMRC when turnover crosses £90,000 in a rolling 12 months. But you can register voluntarily at any point, and for some freelancers it is one of the smartest financial moves they make. For others, it is a costly mistake. Here is how to tell which camp you are in.
The compulsory trigger is simple: cross £90,000 of VAT-taxable turnover in any rolling 12-month period (the threshold since April 2024) and you ...

Claude Max Plan Price 2026: Max 5x vs Max 20x, 5x Wins
The Claude Max plan price is $100 per month for Max 5x and $200 per month for Max 20x, both billed monthly only ( Anthropic Help Center ). Max 5x wins for most buyers: the two tiers are feature-identical, so the extra $100 buys nothing but headroom. Max 20x only pays off if you hit Pro-level limits every working day — and two separate Max 5x seats cost the same as one Max 20x, often the better split for two users.
TL;DR
Max 5x: $100/month. Max 20x: $200/month. Both figures f...

Hi DEV 👋 I'm Anish: a Mechanical Engineer Explaining ML & AI in Plain English
Hi DEV community! I'm Anish Rane , a mechanical engineer from India who moved into machine learning. I recently finished an MSc in Machine Learning & AI at Liverpool John Moores University.
I started writing because most ML tutorials either drown you in maths or skip the why . I write the guides I wish I'd had when I switched from engineering to AI: plain English, worked examples, and code you can actually run.

How a struggling React project and an old Delphi habit led me to build a framework
This is part 2. Part 1 shows how to turn a vibe-coded MVP into something an AI agent can keep extending. Here is where UECA-React came from.
A project in trouble
In 2022 my company was rewriting a legacy web app: .NET Core on the server, React with Blueprint.js and MobX on the client. We are a small team. No dedicated designer, no business analyst.
I was on other projects and watched from the side. After a year of work, the code looked like a pile of low-level React with pr...

Kaagaz: I built a private life-admin companion for my parents
This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend
What I Built
My parents are actually pretty good at keeping important documents.
Electricity bills, warranties, receipts, notices, insurance papers — they usually have them somewhere. The problem isn't losing the documents.
It's remembering what each document means and what needs to happen next .
A bill arrives and it needs to be paid before a certain date. A warranty is kept safely, but...

Fixing 413 request entity to large on laravel + nginx
After deploying my Laravel application to an Ubuntu VPS using Nginx, I encountered this error when uploading a PDF:
413 Request Entity Too Large
The application was running normally, but every upload request failed instantly.
The Cause
The issue wasn't related to Laravel.
By default, Nginx limits the maximum size of the request body. When an uploaded file exceeds that limit, Nginx rejects the request before it reaches your Laravel application.
The Fix

I got tired of sending half-written thoughts to cloud AI, so I built this for Mac
Every AI writing tool seemed to ask me to do something slightly ridiculous:
Write half an email.
Stop.
Copy it.
Open an AI tab.
Paste it.
Ask it to fix the sentence.
Copy the answer.
Go back.
Paste it.
Continue writing.
All of that because I wanted to fix a typo or make one sentence sound less awkward.
So I built DraftKey.

The idea is pretty simple:
AI writing help should feel more like spellcheck and less like visitin...

Das KI-Produktivitätsparadoxon: Warum höhere Produktivität nicht weniger Arbeit bedeutet
Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) verspricht vor allem eines: Zeitersparnis. Dokumente können innerhalb weniger Minuten analysiert, Softwarecode schneller erstellt und Informationen in einer Geschwindigkeit verarbeitet werden, die noch vor wenigen Jahren kaum vorstellbar war.
Theoretisch sollte KI den Arbeitstag daher verkürzen. Wenn Mitarbeiter dieselben Aufgaben effizienter erledigen können, müssten sie weniger Zeit benötigen, um die gleichen Ergebnisse zu erzielen.

The user selects a fixed-camera area, explicitly saves a tidy reference, and sets preferences such as allowing books while asking for dishes to be removed. RoomTidy compares later pictures with that reference locally. It describes...
