Why Rust and WebAssembly Are Replacing JavaScript for Heavy AI Workloads in 2026 While JavaScript remains the reigning language for web UI rendering, high-throughput client-side compute—such as local browser AI inference, video encoding, and cryptographic verification —has completely shifted to Rust compiled to WebAssembly (WASM) . In 2026, running 1B+ parameter models directly inside the browser using WebGPU and WASM SIMD has become standard practice. ⚡ Benchmarks: JS vs...

Cross-posting a technical tutorial is easy to start and surprisingly easy to get wrong. A URL import can leave code blocks split, headings as plain text, or metadata incomplete. The result may look acceptable at a glance while damaging the parts readers need most. This tutorial shows a reviewable DEV.to to Medium workflow using publish-agents , an open-source TypeScript project by Fernando Paladini. Its medium-publisher package imports a public article through Medium's import flow, checks ...

Perry Mason in: The Case of the Drifting Timer Opening Statement You need a reactive "current time" in your Vue 3 app. A schedule grid with a red line showing "now." A live clock. A dashboard that updates every minute. Every Vue developer reaches for setInterval first. It works. But "works" and "works well" are different things. This is the story of taking a naive timer from "it ticks" to production-grade — and the four iterations it took to get there. The prosecution...

5 Advanced CLI Engineering Patterns in Node.js & Go (Building Production Tools) Command line utilities (CLIs) are the backbone of modern developer workflows. From package managers to security scanners, a well-engineered CLI tool can boost developer velocity tenfold. Drawing from production patterns behind open-source CLI tools like node-reaper and port-sniper , here are 5 essential engineering patterns for building high-performance CLI utilities. 1. Graceful Process ...

Acceptance gaps Your monitoring tool has 33 tests. Every one of them passes. It has also never executed, not once, and nothing in your project will ever tell you. Correct, complete, and never started We built a tool that scans four public sources for conversations where our product belongs. It reads only. It never posts. The acceptance was thorough. 33 checks in total. No write access, no credentials, results filtered for relevance, duplicates removed. A hard cap on output...

Bloomberg reported this morning, August 13, that Anthropic is in talks to buy Decart AI for around $6 billion. Talks, not a signed deal. That distinction matters and I will come back to it. What caught my attention is not the number. It is where Decart came from. The Minecraft thing Decart got famous for Oasis: a playable Minecraft-looking world that no game engine was rendering. The model predicted every next frame based on what you pressed on the keyboard. 20 FPS, interactiv...

TL;DR: I wanted Cowrie to actually download the malware attackers were throwing at it. Unfortunately, my security controls had other ideas. I found a way around the problem without weakening my OPNsense rules. Table of Contents The problem: my honeypot was too well protected Why I didn't just whitelist Cowrie The solution: Cowrie goes Tor The Docker Compose Now the download actually happens And now things get interesting One important disclaimer ...

One of the best ways to learn React is by building small, practical projects. A currency converter is an excellent example because it introduces state management, user input handling, calculations, and performance optimization—all in a single application. I built a simple currency converter using React that converts from USD to EUR, GBP, and JPY. For simplicity, I used fixed exchange rates instead of calling a live exchange rate API. React applications are interactive because they can resp...

If you've been watching the open text-to-video space, MiniMax-H3 is one of the more interesting drops of the year. It generates short cinematic clips with a synced soundtrack from a text prompt, and you can drive it end-to-end without ever touching a GPU yourself. The easiest way to explain what that actually looks like is to point at the results people have been posting. My feed has been full of H3 recreations of famous TV moments — Breaking Bad lab scenes, Friends coffee-shop bits, mo...

A question I've been thinking about after discussing AI coding agents with several developers: Is passing the test suite enough to prove that an AI agent made the correct engineering decision? I don't think it is. And this isn't just a theoretical concern. Modern coding agents are increasingly working at the repository level rather than generating isolated code snippets. OpenAI's Codex documentation, for example, describes using repository-specific AGENTS.md instructions to...

El 7 de abril de 2026 escribí el primer commit de lo que iba a ser mi orquestador de agentes. Era, básicamente, una pantalla. Un servidor que gestionaba varios proyectos a la vez y desde el cual podía disparar tareas de un agente de código, con un tablero al medio que mostraba en qué etapa estaba cada cosa. Si me hubieran preguntado ese día cuál era el problema que estaba resolviendo, habría contestado sin dudar: ver y lanzar . Necesitaba un lugar desde donde disparar el trabajo y mirar cómo...

In the previous article , I argued that AI isn't simply changing the tools we use to develop software, but shifting our work to a new level of abstraction. In this one, I want to address the problem that immediately follows: if we're going to write less and less code directly and agents are going to produce an increasingly larger part of it, how the hell do we know whether what they code is actually right? Because the answer obviously can't be “trust the AI, it's very smart”. Even though ...

Running a 2 person product company, my cofounder (product designer by trade) and I are struggling to get the design/dev process right as AI transforms the way we ship. There are a couple of interrelated problems: 1. As we move faster and a higher proportion of our frontend code is AI generated it means more minor UI bugs and inconsistencies. These are generally things that could be zero-shotted by an agent but from what I've found the agentic coding tools for existing mid-sized codebases tend t...

nanosamur.ai is an open-source speech AI platform for organizations that cannot send sensitive conversations to a third party. It lets you capture, transcribe, refine, and process speech entirely inside infrastructure you control. Last couple of years I have been consulting for some organizations that work with sensitive data and have to keep them in air gapped environments and based on those experiences I built and open-sourced nanosamur.ai I wanted a speech-to-text stack that could run complet...
