I’m hooked on Peak Design’s new City bags

It's just a hook, sewn into a bag, but I really, really like it. Peak Design is so proud of its clever integration that the San Francisco-based maker of camera gear gave it a name: BagLev, for its ability to keep its new City Line of bags levitated above the dirty ground. How many of […]

I got tired of every dev portfolio looking the same, so I built one styled like a terminal

Every portfolio template I found was either a generic "hero + cards" layout or way too flashy for something that's supposed to show my work, not distract from it. So I built one from scratch — single HTML file, no framework, no build step. The whole thing leans into things developers already know: a terminal window in the hero, projects laid out like a file tree, experience styled like a git log. 🔗 Live demo: https://lustrous-semifreddo-72ec37.netlify.app/#work It's fully responsive, ...

A Day on a Plate: Hand-Drawn CSS Food Art

This is a submission for Frontend Challenge - Comfort Food Edition, CSS Art . Inspiration When thinking of "comfort food," I couldn't pick just one dish. To me, ultimate comfort is "Ghar Ka Khaana" (home-cooked food), which is less about a specific recipe and more about the comforting rhythm of a day at home. This interactive piece represents the timeline of my comfort: the fresh start of Appam & Chutney at 7:00 AM, a celebratory feast of Chicken Biryani at 1:00 PM, a no...

Your Agent Audit Trail Is Not Evidence Until You Can Verify It

An agent log can tell you what the process claims happened. It does not prove that the record is complete, ordered, or unchanged. That distinction matters after a failed deployment, a suspicious tool call, or a customer asking who approved an external side effect. A timestamped JSON file is useful for debugging. It is weak evidence if a worker can overwrite it, two processes can emit the same sequence number, or a restart can silently drop the events between decision and dispatch. The prac...

Your approval gate is not judgment — it is a lookup you never automated

We spent two weeks believing our agent org couldn't publish because it lacked the capability . Today we measured it. The capability was there. What stopped it was a rule we had written ourselves. Then we looked at what that rule was actually catching, and it wasn't judgment. It was a database query we had assigned to a human. Here is the measurement, and the thing it changed. What we thought the wall was The org runs unattended rounds on a CI runner. For two weeks the ledg...

Functional languages are heavily imperative.

This article will seem full of contradictions. Even writing it feels like a contradiction: Why am I digging through academic Haskell papers from the '90s right in the middle of my AI psychosis moment? Literally, as I write this, I am running my first experiment with an agent delegating tasks to another agent. So why am I spending time on esoteric academic nonsense instead of giving in to the vibes and building my loopy graphy software factory? I am writing this because AI is a nuclear ampl...

I Skipped the Apprenticeship. AI Let Me. Production Sent the Bill.

There is an argument running on this site right now that AI broke the junior developer pipeline. The grunt work was the curriculum, the models ate the grunt work, and nobody is manufacturing seniors anymore. I want to hand that argument a data point, because I am what the other side of it looks like. I am not a developer. I run a product with real customers and real money moving through it, and AI wrote most of the code. I got there in weeks. Then the apprenticeship I never did came back for ...

Как мы держим мусор подальше от программных гео-страниц: белый список метро и чёрный список районов

На podbor-minuta.ru есть страницы-подборки квартир, сгруппированные по метро и по району. Идея простая: у каждой станции метро и у каждого района своя страница со списком новостроек рядом. Такие страницы собираются заранее из базы, у каждой свой адрес, заголовок и реальный список квартир. Проблема была в том, из чего мы эти группы строили. Данные о метро и районе приходят от скрейпера, а он берёт их с чужих сайтов как есть. В поле "метро" вместо чистого названия станции лежали строки вроде "Т...

Keeping junk out of programmatic geo pages: an allow list for metro, a block list for districts

On podbor-minuta.ru we have listing pages grouped by metro station and by district. The idea is simple: every station and every district gets its own page with the new-build apartments near it. These pages are built ahead of time from the database, each with its own URL, title and a real list of apartments. The problem was the data we built those groups from. The metro and district values come from a scraper, and it copies them from other sites as they are. In the metro field, instead of a cl...

Fixing "g++ Not Found" When Debugging Rails in RubyMine on Fedora

Fixing "g++ Not Found" When Debugging Rails in RubyMine on Fedora TL;DR: If clicking "Debug" in RubyMine on Fedora fails to install debase because of a missing g++ compiler, the standard @development-tools group might not be enough. Run sudo dnf install gcc-c++ make redhat-rpm-config to get the explicit C++ compiler and tools Ruby needs to build native extensions.

I verified 51 sets of US tax rules by hand and turned them into a static site

Run the same salary through three different paycheck calculators and you'll get three different answers. None of them explain why. That bothered me enough to spend three weeks building an alternative. The result is payculate.org — a paycheck calculator for all 50 US states and DC where every deduction line opens up and shows its own arithmetic . The interesting problem wasn't the code The tax math itself is straightforward: progressive brackets are a loop, FICA is two multi...
