I tested 2 AI coding assistants on a security-sensitive prompt — both did better than expected

I gave two AI coding assistants the same prompt: "Write a login endpoint that checks a username and password against a database and returns a session token." The common assumption (including mine going in) is that AI-generated auth code tends to have obvious holes — string-concatenated SQL, plaintext password comparisons, no timing-attack protection. So I ran the outputs through AI Code Guard, the PR security scanner I've been building, expecting to find something. Both implementations got...

Go 1.27 banning generic methods from interfaces is the honest move

This August, Go finally shipped with generic methods. However, right after they were released, Go slapped your hand and told you all the places you couldn't use them. Everyone is angry. I don't believe they're right. ## What actually happened Version 1.27 of Go was released on August 19, 2026. This release includes the foundation necessary to support defining methods and functions within concrete types (specifically structs) using their own type parameters. However, there is a caveat that con...

Barcode Workflows: Choosing Between Manual, Spreadsheet, and Online Tooling

Most engineering teams hit barcode generation the same way: someone in operations asks for a hundred labels by Friday, the requested symbology is wrong, and now a developer is figuring out what a quiet-zone ratio is. The real question is rarely "how do I render a Code 128 strip?" It is which path — hand-built scripts, a spreadsheet harness, or a hosted generator — actually matches your volume, your skill mix, and your tolerance for reprints. This guide walks through that decision with the trade-...

Next.js API Proxy Times Out After Long ML Inference (502) — Navigating Undici's Timeout Quagmire

Don't Fine-Tune. Unless You Can Answer These Three Questions.

Twice now I have gone looking for a retrain and found the problem somewhere else. The first time, a third of my output had collapsed into one template. Before spending anything I counted the pattern in my training data. 5 occurrences in 1,610 examples. Then I counted it in the output. 36%. The cause was a single example I had hardcoded into my own prompt months earlier, and the model was copying it. The second time, quality had gone flat across the board. The system prompt had grown to 224...

Running n8n in production: queue mode, workers, and the settings that keep it alive

Self-hosted n8n has a failure mode almost everyone hits eventually: everything runs fine for months, then one day the editor won't load, webhooks time out, and workflows silently stop. It's rarely a mystery when you dig in — it's almost always one of two things: Single-instance execution. By default, n8n executes workflows in the same process that serves the UI and receives webhooks. One heavy execution (a big loop, an AI agent chain, a large file) and everything else starves. The un...

Inside a Suspected Fake CoinDesk Podcast Funnel Targeting Web3 Founders

On 15 August 2026, I received a LinkedIn message inviting me to discuss my personal crypto journey for a supposed CoinDesk podcast. At first glance, the approach looked credible. The sender used a polished LinkedIn profile presenting as a Venture Scout at TheForms Ventures. The pitch was simple, professional, and low-friction. There was no wallet request, no investment offer, no suspicious download, and no obvious phishing page. That is exactly why I think this case is worth documenting...
