Extracting Recording Information From a Scanned Deed

The recording reference is how every other document in a title chain points at this one. It is a citation, not a database key, and the difference shows up the moment somebody tries to look one up using your normalised version of it. What is on the stamp The clerk’s stamp is applied at the moment of recording and carries more than a number. Typically it holds the county and state, the date and time of recording, a reference — book and page, an instrument number, or both — the re...

My README Promised Flags My CLI Doesn't Have. I Built a Drift Detector.

A stranger opened an issue on one of my small CLI tools last month: "The --watch flag in your README doesn't exist." They were right. I had removed --watch two releases earlier, rewritten the feature as a config option, updated the changelog, and forgotten the README's usage section entirely. Worse, the README still showed a fenced code block demonstrating the flag, so every new user was copy-pasting a command that errored out immediately. This is documentation drift, and it's embarrass...

Vibes Are Not a Benchmark: A 30-Minute Harness to Test Whether a Free Coding Model Can Touch Your Repo

Last month I wrote about the six questions I ask every new model. Those questions are good for a first impression, but they have a blind spot: they tell me how a model talks about code, not whether it can survive contact with my code. So I built a small, ugly, reproducible harness that runs any coding model against five tasks drawn from my own git history, scores the results with my real test suite, and writes the outcome to a CSV. This post is that harness, the reasoning behind it, and wher...

Building a Personal Finance App with Open Banking APIs in 2026 (No Certificates Required)

Building a personal finance app used to mean begging users to paste a CSV export — or worse, to share their banking password with a screen-scraping service. Open Banking was supposed to fix that, and under PSD2 it largely has. Every regulated EU/UK bank now exposes a standard API that returns your balances and transactions as clean JSON, with your explicit consent. So why isn't every indie developer shipping a net-worth dashboard on top of it? Because the "official" path to those APIs requ...

A Two-Model Bake-Off on Your Own Repo: Isolating Runs With Git Worktrees

Most model comparisons I read have the same flaw: the models never touch the same problem under the same conditions. One gets a carefully groomed prompt, the other gets a sloppy one. One runs against a clean checkout, the other inherits half-finished edits from the previous attempt. The conclusion tells you more about the harness than the models. I wanted a comparison I could actually trust for my codebase, so I built a small bake-off harness around git worktree . It runs two coding models...

This is a submission for Frontend Challenge - Comfort Food Edition, CSS Art . Inspiration When DEV said comfort food , I didn't think of restaurant platters or Sunday lunch. I thought of home. College. Friends walking through the city with no plan except to find something to eat . I thought of the aroma that hits you when you pass a thela — that small street cart — and your feet turn toward it before your brain catches up. 😮‍💨 That smell. That steam. That queue. Tha...

Detecting Cycles and Loops in a Dependency Graph

A cycle in a build graph, an import graph or a task DAG turns a topological sort into an error message that usually does not say which edges are at fault. Getting the path out is not much harder than getting the boolean, and it is the only version anyone can act on. The version that looks right and is not The first attempt almost everyone writes keeps a single visited set and reports a cycle when it reaches a node already in it: # WRONG def has_cycle ( graph ): ...

I Moved My Discord Bot Off a Paid LLM API. Five Things Broke.

My Discord bot has one job: when someone pastes a stack trace into our server's #help channel, it rewrites the trace into a plain-English explanation plus a likely fix. It ran for months on a paid LLM API at a few dollars a month — small money, but the kind that nags you when the workload is trivially bursty: silent for days, then thirty requests in an evening when a game update breaks everyone's mods. So I pointed it at a free endpoint instead. The migration took an afternoon. The consequen...

Dev Log: 2026-08-12 — a 96s suite that became 42s, a capability that wasn't a scope, and four steps to a passkey

Fifteen commits, three repos, and the bulk of it in one: a control plane that got an MCP surface, a much faster test suite, and a handful of things that turned out to be quietly wrong once I looked properly. The MCP work has its own write-up — sixty tools, four servers, and a long argument with myself about what a refusal should say. This is everything else. 1. Ninety-six seconds to forty-one The suite was six minutes on a full run and about 96s in parallel, which is exactly t...

AI Access Control for Enterprise AI: Turning Policy Into Runtime Enforcement

API keys authenticate software. Policy objects decide what that software is allowed to do. The previous post in this series ended on a question asked in a meeting room: who actually decided we're allowed to do this? The argument was that the answer has to exist before a gateway can enforce anything, and that the gateway's job is to make the answer repeatable. This post is about what that answer looks like when it stops being a decision and becomes an object. For decades, credentials ...

Show HN: Programmable timer web app (for gym workouts or stretching sessions)

Over the last couple of months, I’ve been building a timer web app for myself that I use for workout and stretching sessions. My main use-case is gym routines that consist of repeatable sequences, e.g. where you are holding certain positions for a set time (rinse and repeat). The app counts down the program, beeps, and reads the activities out loud. Two things (I suppose) are special about it: - The timers are “programmable”, so you can freely express your own routines and procedures in a declar...
