Show HN: I simulated closing the Strait of Hormuz on real oil trade data

OP here: I created this visualization tool as the byproduct of a supply chain class I taught at Columbia. The pedagogical exercise grew into a full blown visualization and paper about global oil trade. The model: The mechanics are the same as the financial network Eisenberg-Noe: Instead of banks, every country consumes oil interconnected via bilateral trading. Shocks propagate throughout the network, depleting oil reserves when bottleneck nodes (such as the Strait of Hormuz) are blocked. Insight...

Forget expensive sleepbuds. Buy this pillow instead

Tech companies love to sell us expensive gadgets to solve all of life's little problems. Sleepbuds sold by the likes of Anker and Ozlo are a good example. These miniature marvels of engineering sit flush in the ear, and allow side-sleepers to doze off listening to podcasts, audiobooks, music, or white noise without annoying their […]

AI Agent Security Audit Checklist: 8 Critical Tests for Production Deployments

AI Agent Security Audit Checklist: 8 Critical Tests for Production Deployments AI agents are no longer experimental. In 2026, enterprises are deploying LLM-powered agents that read databases, execute code, send emails, and control production infrastructure. The question is no longer "should we use AI agents?" but "how do we secure them in production?" This article is the fourth in our AI Runtime Security series. We've covered the macro landscape , MCP penetration testing methodolo...

Sally in the Classroom: A $58K Humanoid Is Not an Education Strategy

Sally in the Classroom: A $58K Humanoid Is Not an Education Strategy Context and Core Event This fall, Salamanca City Central High School in western New York is slated to host one of the more uncanny ed-tech pilots of the year: Sally, a stationary M-series humanoid from Toronto-based Realbotix. The Salamanca City Central School District signed a roughly $57,590 contract for the robot plus Optio, Realbotix’s AI tutoring layer, to sit inside select technology classes and extend ho...

Musk’s OpenAI Regret Is Really About Competitive Multipliers, Not Founding Intent

Musk’s OpenAI Regret Is Really About Competitive Multipliers, Not Founding Intent Context & Core Event Analysis Elon Musk recently said that helping create OpenAI accidentally accelerated the AI race—something that “wasn’t really” his intention. In his telling, the chain runs like this: co-found OpenAI, watch Anthropic spin out of that ecosystem, then watch Anthropic become a leading force, with knock-on effects that sped up industry competition overall. The remark lands ...

94 Million Hausa Speakers, and AI Still Barely Understands Them. What Three Years of Grassroots Work Taught Me.

Hausa is spoken by close to 94 million people in Nigeria alone, with tens of millions more across Niger and the wider Sahel. Nature has reported that ChatGPT and LLMs correctly understands only 10 to 20 percent of sentences written in Hausa. I've spent the last three years trying to close that gap. First alone, then with a community I founded in Bauchi State that's since grown past 500 people. This isn't really a project retrospective. It's an honest account of what it actually takes to build...

Part 4 - Tightly Encapsulated Class in Java

After learning Data Hiding , Abstraction , and Encapsulation , let's explore a concept that frequently appears in Java interviews and certification exams: Tightly Encapsulated Class . At first glance, you might think a tightly encapsulated class is simply a class with private variables and public getters and setters. That's a common misconception. In Java, the definition is much simpler—and much stricter. There is only one rule you need to check. In this article, we'll under...

Point-in-Time Recovery Without the Enterprise Price Tag

description: A deep dive into HuskHoard's open-source PITR engine — how the catalog tracks version history and byte offsets across physical media, and how you roll back a single file without touching the rest of the volume. Point-in-Time Recovery Without the Enterprise Price Tag If you've priced out Veeam, Commvault, or a Zerto license recently, you already know the punchline: granular point-in-time recovery is one of the most aggressively monetized features in enterprise storag...

Preparing Your Enterprise APIs for Post-Quantum Cryptography: A Practical Migration Blueprint

As cryptographic research accelerates, the looming threat of cryptanalytically relevant quantum computers (CRQCs) poses a severe risk to traditional public-key cryptography. Standard algorithms like RSA and Elliptic-Curve Cryptography (ECC)—which secure the vast majority of modern enterprise APIs, JSON Web Tokens (JWTs), and TLS handshakes—will be vulnerable to Shor's algorithm. To safeguard enterprise microservices, NIST has standardized lattice-based cryptographic algorithms like ML-KEM (Ky...

How I Built a Video Downloader with $0 Maintenance Costs (Node.js + Vanilla JS)

Hey everyone! 👋 I wanted to share the architecture of a side project I just finalized: VidZap , a turnkey web video downloader tool. My main goal when building this was simple: create an app that handles dynamic video parsing but requires zero expensive server setups or crushing monthly bandwidth bills for whoever hosts it. Here is a breakdown of how the architecture works and how you can build or deploy something similar. 🏗️ The Hybrid Architecture Split To keep hos...

TypeScript Recursive Types in 2026: Modeling JSON, Trees, and Deep Partial Without Hitting the Limit

TypeScript Recursive Types in 2026: Modeling JSON, Trees, and Deep Partial Without Hitting the Limit This article was written with the assistance of AI, under human supervision and review. Most TypeScript codebases handle nested data—JSON responses, file trees, comment threads—by writing any or falling back to runtime validation. The compiler cannot protect operations on deeply nested structures because the types stop at one or two levels. When a frontend engineer fetches a config...

The Crash That Only Happened Sometimes — A SwiftUI Bug

This is a submission for DEV's Summer Bug Smash: Smash Stories powered by Sentry . I spent three hours debugging a SwiftUI crash that felt completely random. It wasn't random at all. It was me, a force unwrap, and a fundamental misunderstanding of when SwiftUI renders its views. Okay gather round because I need to tell you about the three hours I spent convinced I had found a bug in SwiftUI itself. I had not found a bug in SwiftUI. I had found a bug in my own assumptions, ...

The Follow-Up Questions That Decide System Design Interviews (And How to Pre-Empt Them)

Where Interviews Are Actually Won Ask interviewers where candidates separate, and almost none will say "the initial design." Prep materials have converged so thoroughly that first-pass architectures for the canonical prompts look nearly identical across candidates: sensible boxes, reasonable arrows, the expected components in the expected places. If interviews were scored on that artifact, everyone above a threshold would pass. They aren't. The differentiating data comes from what happens...
