I run a small studio called RENOX where I build automation, Telegram bots and web apps. Recently I shipped a side project worth sharing: a bilingual (English/Persian) gallery of ready-to-use AI image prompts for ChatGPT, Sora and Midjourney. It's live and free to browse at rnosrat.com/prompts . Here is how it's built and a few things I learned. The stack PHP 8 + SQLite (PDO) on shared LiteSpeed hosting - no build step, cheap, and fast enough for a read-heavy gallery....

I run a small audio conversion tool. Nothing clever — you paste a link, it pulls the audio, you download it. It handles somewhere around 8,000 jobs a day now, and about 91% of the people who start a conversion actually finish the download. Getting there took five months and four bugs I would not have found in a test environment. This is a write-up of those four. Stack, for context: Flask, Redis, RQ workers, yt-dlp, and a pool of rotating proxies. The setup Requests hit a queue. Worke...

An application should not take away the decision a user has previously selected. That is the main point of the argument. All other details are insignificant. The debate that split frontend Twitter Lea Verou brought back to everyone's memory the battle from long ago about two-state vs three-state dark mode toggles in August 2026, this time Josh Collinsworth was a major advocate for her approach. Verou, in her Modern Web Advice, advocated for the simple two-state Light/Dark toggle....

OpenAI has set out a new strategic direction it calls its third phase , centered on building an automated AI researcher , accelerating scientific and economic progress, and eventually giving every person access to what it describes as personal AGI. The plan is not a product announcement, and it includes no pricing, rollout dates, or new business software. Its most concrete target is aspirational: OpenAI wants a significant portion of its research to be conducted by AI by March 2028. The Jun...

Architectural deep-dives of high-end WebGL engines rarely surface in production quality due to proprietary bundling and obfuscation. Over the past several months, I conducted an end-to-end systems deconstruction and 1:1 architectural reverse engineering of the runtime driving activetheory.net . Instead of surface-level de-minification, this research focuses on the mechanics of zero-allocation memory footprints in V8, Eulerian Navier-Stokes particle advection, and offscreen floating-point GPG...

Excitement I wanted to share my excitement of forcing myself to build without using AI. I would say I've been learning to code semi-consistently for roughly 3 years. Most recently, I started a class called Java 2. It builds on foundational concepts learned in the previous class. I feel I might be spread a bit thin, dabbling over here in Ruby, dabbling over there in Python, and then poking around at Java on Sunday afternoon. Good thing they share the overarching concepts or it would be utt...

Most people who add "memory" to an AI agent do the same thing: embed every message, throw the vector into Pinecone or pgvector, and call similarity_search at query time. It works for a demo. It falls apart in production, because nothing ever updates or deletes anything — the store only grows, and it fills with contradictions. Say a user tells your agent "I live in Austin" in March and "I just moved to Denver" in July. A naive vector store keeps both. At retrieval time, both come back as...

Debugging modern applications is still surprisingly painful. Whether you're building a Python data pipeline, a Node.js microservice, or a Go API, debugging usually boils down to two tedious options: Littering your codebase with console.log() / print() statements and re-running everything. Stepping forward line-by-line in a traditional debugger, accidentally skipping past the exact mutation that caused the crash, and having to restart from scratch. To solve this fundamentally,...

Most AI agent tutorials show you a pipeline. Agent A extracts data, hands it to Agent B, B hands it to C. It works, but it works like an assembly line: if A is slow, everyone waits. If B fails, the line stops. And if you want to add a new specialist to the line, you have to rewire the whole thing. Mozaik , an open-source runtime built by the JigJoy team, starts from a different idea: what if agents worked like people in a room instead of stations on a line? I spent last weekend building...

¿Qué riesgo existe realmente al mantener IMDSv1 habilitado en una instancia EC2? En 2019, el incidente de Capital One mostró que el acceso no autorizado al EC2 Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) puede formar parte de una cadena de ataque con consecuencias muy serias. El incidente terminó afectando información de más de 100 millones de personas. Más adelante veremos qué ocurrió y qué papel tuvo el metadata service. Pero primero necesitamos entender una pieza que muchas instancias EC2 t...

One of the major improvements in WebForms Core 2.1 is the expansion of WebForms Place Criteria (WPC) . WPC is a DSL built into WebForms Core for selecting, filtering, and manipulating HTML elements and groups of DOM elements. At its basic level, WPC provides selectors for finding elements by ID, Name, Tag, Class, and Attribute , as well as navigating through children, parents, the current element, the target element, Document , Window , HTML , Head , Root , and other locations wi...
