Connect a Carrd Landing Page to Payhip Without Building a Backend

Affiliate disclosure: I’m an independent Payhip Partner. The optional signup link at the end is my partner link; I may receive a commission from Payhip if a referred seller generates eligible revenue. I am not a Payhip employee or official representative. A creator selling one template or downloadable guide does not need to write a payment backend. The safer architecture is usually: Carrd or static page ↓ Payhip product page or direct checkout ↓ Hosted payment an...

AI Reviewing AI Is Not Review

Originally published at tddbuddy.com . Related reading: Where the Review Point Moved is the direct predecessor; this post argues the industry's response to that shift is doubling down on the wrong surface at higher throughput. What "Senior" Means When Typing Is Free and The Test Pyramid Was an Economic Argument name where signal actually lives now. The review agent left fourteen comments on the pull request and none of them were the reason the PR should not have merged. That i...

Puppet Core 9.0 and 8.21 Released: Ruby 4.0, OpenSSL 3.5, Platform Changes, and Security Hardening

Did you know there's a new major version in town for Puppet Core? You might have heard about it through the grapevine or in the Are You Ready for Puppet 9? webinar that @gpatton and I recently hosted. The wait is over and Puppet Core 9.0.0 is now available alongside Puppet Core 8.21.0. Puppet Core 9 introduces significant runtime and platform changes, moving to Ruby 4.0, OpenSSL 3.5, and other changes, but the essential Puppet under the hood is largely unchanged from Puppet 8. The majorit...

How to Create Your Own Claude Code Skill With SKILL.md

If you use Claude Code for frontend development, you may have noticed something. Claude can write code very fast. But sometimes the UI it creates looks too similar to other AI-generated websites. You get the same rounded cards, large headings, soft shadows, gradients, and simple layouts. The code works. But the design does not always feel like your own. Hi everyone, I am Henry. In this article, I want to show you a simple way to fix that. We are going to create our own C...

The Midnight wallet SDK changed its npm scope. Here is what to update.

If you installed the Midnight wallet SDK a while back and pinned the package names, your imports are now pointing at a deprecated scope. Nothing is broken yet. But the packages you depend on moved, and the old names are living on borrowed time. Here is what changed, why it matters, and the one gotcha that trips people up. The short version The wallet SDK packages moved from the @midnight-ntwrk scope (with a dash) to @midnightntwrk (no dash). @midnight-ntwrk/wallet-...

Speculative Decoding and MTP: Why Guessing Is Free

I saw "MTP round-trip" on a checklist for a Megatron conversion pipeline and had no idea what it meant. Two acronyms, one hyphen, apparently important enough that someone had listed it as a thing to verify. Working out what it meant took me somewhere I didn't expect. The interesting part turned out not to be MTP at all β€” it was the reason speculative decoding works in the first place, which rests on a fact about hardware that I had backwards. TL;DR Generating text is slow be...

Reduce LLM Cost for Catalog: Compare Small Models to Summarize, Classify, and Extract JSON

Short answer: the best way to reduce LLM cost for a product catalog is to measure cost per accepted record, then route each job by difficulty. Count prompt tokens before the call, use a small model for the easy summarize/classify/extract-JSON cases, reserve a stronger model for exceptions, and batch work that can wait. The winning option is the one that preserves the required fields at the lowest cost per accepted result, not the one with the lowest token rate. I build RAG and agent features ...

How to pull every open job from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and SmartRecruiters with public APIs (and monitor changes)

Job postings are one of the most underrated public data sources on the internet. Recruiters use them to spot placement opportunities, B2B teams read them as buying signals (a new Head of Data means data-tooling budget), and job seekers want to apply on day one β€” not when a posting finally reaches the aggregators. The usual instinct is to scrape career pages. Don't. Most tech companies host their careers page on one of a handful of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), and the four biggest ones ...

IEC 104 Before the Wire: Understanding Its Architecture, Framing, and Security Boundaries

By RUGERO Tesla ( @404Saint ). IEC 60870-5-104 (IEC 104) is the TCP/IP-based member of the IEC 60870-5 telecontrol family. It was designed to carry SCADA telemetry and control information across packet-switched networks, particularly within electrical power systems. Before getting into raw packets, it is worth understanding how IEC 104 is structured, how its communication state is maintained, and where its security boundaries actually exist. This is the map before we meet the protocol...
