iPhone Handoff will seamlessly share one number between two phones

When iOS 27 lands later this month, it will have a feature called iPhone Handoff that lets you switch between two phones using the same number. It was briefly mentioned during the WWDC keynote back in June, but there were no details at the time. Now there's a demo clip showing how to set up […]

Explore the globe in field recordings

I love field recordings. I love making them. I love them when they're incorporated into my ambient music. They're great background noise for working or sleeping. But they're also great for active listening, focusing in on the fine nuances of burbling brooks or urban chaos. Earth Garden gives you a globe to explore with real […]

Talking to Native: FFI, Pigeon, and Knowing Which One You Need

A MethodChannel typo cost us three days and a hotfix release, and the compiler never said a word. That's the whole story of Flutter native interop in one sentence: the easy path is a stringly-typed message bus that fails silently in the field, and almost everyone reaches for it first. Every Flutter developer's first brush with native code goes the same way. You need something the framework doesn't give you — a battery level, a hardware sensor, a C library your backend team already trusts — ...

10 Developer Tools That Can Save You Time Every Day

As developers, a surprising amount of time is spent on small tasks. Formatting JSON, encoding Base64, generating hashes, decoding JWTs, testing regular expressions, converting timestamps — none of these tasks are particularly difficult, but they can interrupt your workflow. Instead of repeatedly searching for a different website for every small task, I wanted to bring these everyday utilities together in one place. That’s how MazdaDev came to life. 🛠️ What is MazdaDev?

Scrolling to an Index in a Flutter Lazy List, Without Building Everything Above It

You have a list of a million rows and you want to jump to row 842,013. ScrollController.jumpTo takes a pixel offset, not an index. To convert one to the other you need the total height of the 842,012 rows above your target — and a lazy list has never built them, so it does not know how tall they are. That is not an oversight. It is the entire point of a lazy list. Flutter ships no answer. The two packages that did are both dead: scrollable_positioned_list — archived by Goo...

I measured what my 11 Actors cost to run. The 96x spread was mostly one config field.

I wrote this article twice. The first version was finished, proofread, and queued to publish. Then someone asked a question about one number in it, and the thesis came apart. I am publishing the second version, along with the part where I was wrong, because the mistake turned out to be more useful than the article I meant to write. What I set out to do Pay-per-event pricing asks you to name a price per unit of value. I had priced eleven Actors that way without knowing what a u...

urning emailed spreadsheets into Magento orders without asking customers to change

Every B2B Magento store I've worked on has the same quiet leak. A chunk of the orders never touch the storefront. They arrive as an .xlsx exported from the buyer's purchasing system, a PDF purchase order, or a photo of a list someone wrote by hand. A person on the seller's side opens the admin, clicks Create New Order, and retypes it. Nobody logs this as a problem because nothing is broken. The order gets placed. It just costs a few minutes of a salesperson's day, every day, and it never show...

Introducing TaxUI: A Modern Declarative HTML & CSS Framework with Zero JavaScript

Hey fellow developers! 👋 Like many of you, I've spent countless hours configuring build tools, writing endless strings of utility classes, or importing heavy JavaScript bundles just to achieve basic application layouts, responsive grids, modals, and dark mode. I wanted something different: a framework where writing HTML feels clean, intuitive, and semantic again, without sacrificing modern design standards or adding runtime overhead. That is why I created TaxUI. 💡 What is TaxUI? Tax...

Saving a Real File From Flutter Web, Instead of Downloading Another Copy

Build an editor on Flutter Web. The user opens budget.csv , edits it, hits save. They get budget.csv in their Downloads folder. They edit again, save again: budget (1).csv . Again: budget (2).csv . Their real file — the one on their Desktop that they opened — has never been touched. By the end of an afternoon they have nine numbered copies and no idea which is current. This is not a Flutter problem; it is what "saving" has meant on the web for twenty years. The browser hands yo...

RAG ou MCP? A pergunta errada. Cole o prompt e monte os dois

Pessoal, a gente não está deixando o harness nem o LLM mais inteligente. Nem com RAG, nem com MCP, nem com fine-tuning. É disciplina: contexto direcionado na hora certa. Aí a predição acerta mais. RAG, fine-tuning ou MCP? A pergunta já nasce torta. Não compete. Cada um mora numa camada. RAG é a knowledge base. Logseq, Notion, Confluence, o doc do time. Política, contrato, runbook. Na hora da pergunta, a busca devolve o trecho. Com fonte. Precisa apontar o arquivo? Isso já é RAG. Quando a...

I built a QA agent that audits itself nightly. It has filed 79 findings against its own releases.

Most "AI QA agents" audit your repo from scratch every time and end with LGTM. I wanted the opposite: a tester with memory, a failure taxonomy, a verdict contract, and no ability to touch the code it judges. So in Verdict the model only judges. A stdlib harness measures everything else — timestamps, SHAs, test counts, diff coverage, a signed run history — and a validator refuses any state that claims more than was measured. What a run looks like A state file carries the base...

Turning Google Maps Scraper Output into a 0-100 Lead Priority Score (No Scraping, No LLM)

If you've ever built a lead-gen pipeline for a local SEO or web design agency, you know the pattern: scrape a bunch of businesses off Google Maps, then manually eyeball which ones are worth calling. Missing website? Good lead. Unclaimed Google Business Profile? Also good. Both? Great lead. But sorting hundreds or thousands of rows by hand on multiple criteria doesn't scale. I built Google Maps Lead Priority Scorer , an Apify Actor that takes the JSON output you already have from a Google M...

Large-Language Models as a Cognitive Virus

Large-language models (LLMs) are rapidly becoming part of human culture, reshaping how information is produced, transmitted, and used. Here we propose that their diffusion can be understood through a viral analogy, with LLM use spreading through populations, becoming embedded in cognitive and cultural practices. We model transitions among uncoupled, coupled, and persistently dependent users, and show that the interplay between social transmission, recovery, and collective reinforcement can gener...
