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...

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-...

Disclaimer : This article was created for the purpose of entering the All Things Agentic Hackathon hosted by Google Cloud and Devpost. 💡 The Problem: Radiologist Burnout & DICOM Bottlenecks Radiologists worldwide face extreme burnout, evaluating 50+ volumetric MRI scans daily. Each scan contains 24 to 40 high-resolution DICOM slices. Manually inspecting every plane, checking ligament continuity across depth slices, and dictating repetitive clinical reports takes 10 to...

📝 Originally published (in Japanese) at forge.workstyle.tech . Relaying API Requests from Next.js Frontend to a Separate Inference Service (FastAPI) via API Routes — A Common BFF Pattern When using Next.js to relay requests from the frontend to an inference service (FastAPI) running in a separate process via API routes, it's a common BFF (Backend for Frontend) architecture. However, when running audio generation with a 44.1kHz model on the CPU, processing can take several minu...

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...

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...

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...

In early 2025, Andrej Karpathy introduced "Vibe Coding" —building software by describing ideas in natural language and letting AI generate the code. It worked brilliantly for MVPs and weekend hackathons. But once projects scale, developers hit a wall: the 200-prompt spiral , where fixing one bug breaks three more because no one truly owns or understands the architecture. The industry has moved forward: Vibe coding is the ignition, but Agentic Engineering is the vehicle. ...

Next week we ship the Bitaxe Naja Duo , and the spec that matters is 9.5 joules per terahash at stock. First open-source home miner under 10. But this is dev.to, so instead of a product pitch, here's the part that's actually interesting to build: what it takes to make a $3 microcontroller drive silicon that Bitmain designed for industrial hashboards and documented for nobody. The problem: a peripheral with no datasheet The BM1373 is Bitmain's 3nm SHA-256 ASIC from the Antminer S...

TL;DR: A Knowledge Base in ByteChef is a managed RAG store: drop in documents (PDF, Markdown, Word, JSON, plain text - and scanned PDFs or images, through an OCR path) and ByteChef parses, chunks (with size and overlap you pick per knowledge base), embeds , and indexes them in a pgvector -backed Spring AI VectorStore . Retrieval is everywhere you'd want it: a Knowledge Base Search tool for AI Agents (with tag filtering), Load/Search/Update/Delete actions for workflows, and a built-...

If you've ever spent 3 hours debugging a missing 2-space indentation in a 1,000-line Kubernetes YAML file or copy-pasting the same service definition between docker-compose.yml, Helm templates, and Terraform HCL — you're not alone. Today, I’m excited to share Infra Lang v0.5.1, an open-source, human-friendly Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) compiler that lets you define your architecture once in a clean, typed DSL and compile it to Kubernetes, Docker Compose, Helm Charts, and Terraform HCL. 🌟 ...

Found that you can actually run a 35B Qwen model on a Pi with very impressive intelligence and stability. Built connectors for car ODB to read all about car internals, and manufacturer's cloud service for stuff like changing AC or opening/ locking doors. Gave it info such as the full car manual. And then hooked it up with my other agents in our discussion room! So now it can answer car questions such as "when should I add oil and what kind of oil?" and help you fully offline, and when online tal...
