How Should AI Agents Discover Each Other?

If identity tells an agent who another agent is , and reputation helps answer whether that agent should be trusted , the next problem is obvious: How does one agent actually find another agent in the first place? At first, this sounds like a search problem. Maybe you build a directory. Maybe agents have tags. Maybe there is a search box. Maybe you type: energy research agent and get a list of results. That is probably useful. But I don’t think that i...

Build a Strapi v5 form with React without using a hosted widget

A React contact form is easy until it needs to be changed by someone who does not ship the frontend. Then the project needs a schema, an editor, server validation, spam controls, submission storage and a place to review what arrived. That work usually ends up split between a custom Strapi content type, a controller, an admin page and the React component that started the whole thing. This tutorial uses FormFlow to keep the form definition in Strapi v5 while leaving the rendered UI in R...

I Wrote a Tool to Find Blind Spots. It Had One.

I spend a lot of time writing quality gates to enforce invariants in my software. For weeks, my test runner stayed green. Every guard was in place, every check passed, and every test suite reported clean execution. Then I asked an uncomfortable question: are these gates actually measuring anything, or are they just executing without complaining? To find out, I wrote a script to sabotage my own engine. The tool parses the source code, finds every fail() assertion call in the engine, disab...

Gamifying Cardiac Rehab with Habitica

Why I turned recovery into a game Cardiac rehab is a long, repetitive grind. The problem is that it feels like a grind. The exercises matter, the sleep and nutrition matter, but the feedback loop is slow and fuzzy. Habitica gives me an immediate feedback loop. I turn recovery into an RPG: quests, parties, XP, streaks. The medical side still lives with doctors and devices. The day-to-day compliance lives in a game. The Habitica party: making recovery a team sport Habitica is built aro...

Why I finally deleted NotePlan

The feature list looked perfect. The app did not. On paper, NotePlan inside Setapp can look like a great home for tasks. Daily notes. Calendar integration. Linked references. A whole personal system in one place. In practice, it never stuck for me. I would install it, poke around, half-commit to moving things in, then slide back to Todoist and other tools. The problem was not the feature list. It was the feeling of using it. NotePlan vs Todoist: the difference you actually feel To...

Running Kubernetes in an Air-Gapped Environment With Spinifex

Running Kubernetes in an air-gapped environment is harder than it looks. Kubernetes pulls container images from registries. Control plane components phone home during bootstrap. Node configuration tooling assumes it can reach package repositories. The ecosystem is built around internet connectivity, and peeling that assumption out of a real deployment is tedious enough that most teams avoid it or work around it with expensive and brittle proxy setups. Spinifex installs without internet access...
