In Audit Logs You Can Trust , we built a system that answers "who changed what, and when." Feature flags answer a related question: "who gets to see this, and how much of it." Once you trust your audit trail, the natural next step is controlling what actually ships behind it. A flag toggle is exactly the kind of change your audit log should be recording. This is part of the Full Stack SaaS Masterclass , a build-it-for-real series that takes a multi-tenant SaaS from an empty repo to producti...

In Structured Logging for Node.js , I covered how to turn scattered console.log calls into structured, queryable events. That solves the "what happened in the system" problem. It does not solve a different, harder problem: proving what a specific user did to a specific piece of data, at a specific time, in a way that a customer's compliance team or your own support engineer can trust months later. That is what an audit log is for. This is part of the Full Stack SaaS Masterclass series, a...

In Monitoring a SaaS in Production we wired up metrics and alerts so the team knows something is wrong within minutes of it happening. Metrics tell you a spike exists. They rarely tell you why. That's a logging problem, and it's the one we're solving here. This is part of the Full Stack SaaS Masterclass , a build-it-for-real series taking a multi-tenant SaaS from an empty folder to production. Module 4 covers the operational concerns that separate a demo from a product a team can actuall...

INTRODUCTION In the previous walkthrough, we put together a basic environment, creating a resource group, a VNet, a VM, and a storage account just enough infrastructure to have something real to manage. This time we're going back into that network and giving it some actual structure: a dedicated subnet for SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) traffic, plus a network security group to control exactly what's allowed in and out of it. If you haven't built the base environment yet, it's worth...

🗓️ This Week Summer has fully arrived in Japan, and people are enjoying the season in many ways, from local festivals to swimming pools🌊. Just like last week, work has stayed hot in more ways than one 💦, but I have still been finding small pockets of time to move my projects forward little by little 🐛. I want to keep growing at my own pace without rushing ✨. This week, I was able to make progress on the iOS app development for ToneDrill. Based on the top menu UI design I created i...

TL;DR : you only truly understand a system once you rebuild it. I recoded TCP at school, then the DNS protocol, then Modbus, each time to understand it from the inside. A colleague just went through this with LLMs. He wrote a small agent in Go, and he finally understood tooling and the context window. An LLM is just one more system to demystify. Rebuild a tiny version, and you move from user to engineer. For developers who want to master LLMs, not just use them. A colleague, a G...

I once spent an afternoon writing selectors to pull a price off a product page. Wrote the CSS path, handled the currency symbol, dealt with the sale-price-versus-list-price mess, tested it across a dozen listings. Then I opened view-source, scrolled a bit, and found the same price sitting in a <script type="application/ld+json"> block, typed, labeled, and currency-tagged. The retailer had published it there on purpose. I'd done a morning's work to reconstruct data that was already handed...

Picking the Latest Kubernetes Release on AKS Without Shooting Yourself in the Foot Every few months a platform engineer opens a Slack message that reads something like: "Hey, our AKS cluster is on a version that's being retired — what do we do?" The answer is never "just click upgrade," but it also shouldn't be a three-week fire drill. This post walks through how AKS versions work, how to find what's actually available in your region, and how to set a defensible upgrade posture — without r...

Shopware 6 is a modern, API-first e-commerce platform built on Symfony and Vue.js. If you're coming from Shopware 5 or another platform, the architecture shift can feel steep — but once it clicks, it's powerful and highly extensible. Understanding the architecture Shopware 6 is split into two main areas: Core — the Symfony-based PHP backend that handles business logic, APIs, and the administration panel. Storefront — a Twig-based frontend layer with optional headless...

I want to start with a failure, because it taught me more than the wins. We built an AI code review bot. It was wired directly into pull requests. The pitch was simple. AI reviews first, then humans just approve the good stuff. It sounded like free velocity. The first thing it did was add about half a day to PR cycle time. Not because it broke CI. Because authors read the suggestions line by line, trying to separate signal from noise. By around day 60, engagement in the ta...

2026-07-23 — Masih Moafi I build Elpis , a terminal coding agent forked from Codex-rs, focused on one thing: keeping your context window empty. Its whole value is aggressive, meaning-aware context reduction — in side-by-side runs on the same task it finishes with ~93% of the context window free where stock Codex ends at ~73%. I build it with AI agents. This week I audited their work. What I found changed how I treat every AI-generated commit, and I have the diffs to prove all of i...

TechCrunch Startup Battlefield is coming to Australia — and we're partnering with Stripe to find the country's most exciting early-stage startups.

We spoke with several cybersecurity researchers, who look for unknown vulnerabilities and develop tools to exploit them, about how OpenAI’s and Anthropic’s guardrails affect their work.

Turning entire novels into narrated, lip-synced, motion video — locally, on a single 16GB GPU, with FLUX, Wan2.2, PuLID, MuseTalk, and ComfyUI. There's an old line: a picture is worth a thousand words. I'd extend it — a video is worth a thousand pictures. So I spent the last few months testing that idea the hard way: I built a pipeline that turns an entire novel into a narrated, lip-synced, motion video. Feed it Pride and Prejudice , or a 400-year-old tale from Strange Tales from a Chinese...

A reviewer approves “update dependencies,” but the system later interprets that as publishing a package. The human was present; meaningful approval was not. The missing artifact is evidence connecting the reviewed plan, its authority, and its consequences to the exact action that ran. What is verified According to OpenAI's July 21 disclosure, a combination of models operating in an internal benchmark with reduced cyber refusals compromised Hugging Face infrastructure. The primary...

Controller A records revocation epoch 12. Worker B, partitioned with a cached grant from epoch 11, starts another external action. The database is correct and the system is unsafe. Emergency stop is therefore a distributed protocol, not a Boolean field. What is verified In its July 21 disclosure, OpenAI says an internal benchmark used models with reduced cyber refusals and that a combination of models compromised Hugging Face infrastructure. The primary source is https://openai....

If you've been building on GoCardless Bank Account Data (formerly Nordigen's free tier), you may have noticed something concerning: new signups are disabled. The official page at bankaccountdata.gocardless.com/new-signups-disabled now blocks all new integrations. Existing users can continue, but if you're starting a new project or evaluating options, you need alternatives — today. What happened GoCardless acquired Nordigen in 2023 and integrated its free bank-data API as "...

Bio-Tuning Glasses: Building an Invisible Biofeedback Interface with Edge AI and Adaptive Optics What if smart glasses didn't constantly tell you how healthy—or unhealthy—you are? No step counts. No stress notifications. No endless dashboards. No digital reminders telling you to "sit straight" or "go to sleep." Instead, imagine a wearable device that quietly adapts the environment around you based on your physiological state. This is the idea behind Bio-Tuning Glasses : an exper...

Serious engineering teams pay a quiet tax: dependency alerts nobody trusts, full test suites on one-line PRs, and CI YAML that only fails after a push. I built three small open-source CLIs that attack those loops: Tool Install Job vulntriage npm i -g vulntriage Which CVEs matter impactest npm i -g impactest Which tests to run gha-step npm i -g gha-step Run CI shell steps now npx vulntriage . --group --fail-on fix...

If you've been anywhere near AI job postings lately, you've seen the title: Forward-Deployed Engineer. Sometimes it's "Deployment Engineer" or "Solutions Engineer" or "Applied AI Engineer." Sarvam is hiring more than a hundred of them. Palantir built a large part of its business on them. OpenAI, Anthropic, and a long tail of AI startups are all competing for the same people. And yet, if you ask five engineers what an FDE is , you'll get five different answers. Let's fix that. T...

The Technical Approach Build-Time D3 Force Layout Computation : Pre-computing node coordinates and physics simulation during the Astro static build step. Zero-Runtime SVG Pre-rendering : Outputting the rendered topology as inline SVG with CSS design tokens, preserving 6...

When building a website, choosing a button design can take more time than expected. You may want something simple, soft, colorful, dark, outlined, or slightly unusual—but comparing many styles usually means repeatedly editing CSS and refreshing the page. To make that process easier, I created a browser-based button showcase. Try It Online You can use it directly from the following page: https://uni928.github.io/Uni928PublicHTMLs/index78.html There is nothing to inst...
