While there was probably a moment when Slate’s leadership had to green-light the switch from one battery type to another, the momentum toward that decision had been building for years.

I built jugeni two weeks ago and I have no idea what it does anymore I sat down to write a feature post about jugeni. I have used it every day for two weeks. I cannot describe what it does anymore. That sounds like a failure of positioning. It may be the point. Every time I try to name a feature, I realize I have not consciously touched that layer in days. The recap is just there. The decision is already locked. The compact gate says no before I waste another context window. The not...

Every few days there's a new MCP server or Claude Code skill worth trying. And almost all of them you install the same way: copy a command out of a README, paste it into your terminal, done. I did this maybe twenty times before it occurred to me that I was running code from strangers, on the machine where I keep my SSH keys and cloud credentials, without reading a single line of it first. So I built a small tool to check them before they run. It's called frisk. What it actually...

I gave an AI agent the vended bash tool from Strands and asked it to read my AWS credentials file. At first, it refused. But then I asked again with a slightly more creative prompt and it read the file, found the keys, and then gave me a polite but stern warning that I should rotate them immediately. Even with the warning, the point is that the agent got the keys. That's the danger of giving your agent access to a local filesystem. It can reach anything on that machine like credentials, env...

If you're building an app on top of OpenAI or Anthropic, you've probably noticed something uncomfortable: there's no native way to limit how much any individual user can cost you. OpenAI gives you org-level spend caps and project budgets. These protect OpenAI's billing relationship with you. They don't protect you from the one user who discovers they can run your AI feature in a loop at 3am and generate $400 in API costs before you wake up. I learned this the hard way. Twice. W...

Refactoring is one of the most important skills in software engineering. Yet it is also one of the most feared. Every developer has experienced that moment: you discover a messy part of the codebase, identify a cleaner solution, and immediately hesitate. "What if I break production?" For front-end engineers, software developers, and startup founders, this fear is justified. Production systems serve real users, generate revenue, and support critical business operations. A poorly exe...

If you're already running MongoDB and you reach for ASP.NET Core Identity, the official story points you at Entity Framework Core. That's a fine answer if you have a relational database. If you don't, you end up bolting a second data access stack onto an app that has exactly one store. You don't need it. AspNetCoreIdentity.MongoDriver is a store provider that talks to Mongo through the official MongoDB.Driver directly — no EF Core, no SQL, no second persistence model. It implements t...

Let me start with something important. I love Symfony In my opinion, Symfony remains one of the best foundations for serious PHP applications. So this is not criticism of Symfony. It is an observation about modern projects. Symfony Is Great at Solving Individual Problems Symfony gives us excellent building blocks—routing, dependency injection, security, forms, Messenger, Twig, the UX initiative, AssetMapper, Flex recipes, and more. The ecosystem is huge a...

Most PDF libraries in .NET are wrappers. PDFium, MuPDF, Ghostscript — solid engines, but they ship native binaries you P/Invoke into. That buys you per-RID packages, Native AOT friction, the "works on my box, throws DllNotFoundException in the Alpine container" dance, and a deployment story that's never quite boring. PdfLibrary takes the other road: the PDF engine and every image codec are pure managed C#. No vendored native PDF library, no native image decoders. I'll be precise about the...

"Seu sistema está perdendo dados" Um cliente abriu o chamado, convicto. O relatório de retorno bancário enviado por e-mail toda manhã tinha 423 linhas . O mesmo relatório, gerado sob demanda no portal, tinha 1.351 . 928 linhas, sumidas. É o tipo de número que faz você presumir o pior. No fim, nada foi perdido. O bug tinha 16 minutos de largura. Passo 1: comparar antes de debugar Nada de código ainda. Primeiro dei um diff nos dois arquivos. Mesmo dia. Mesmo banc...

You already do the hard part of this. You authenticate your production APIs. You treat anything from the public internet as hostile until proven otherwise. And after a year of prompt-injection write-ups, you already assume an agent can be steered by the text it reads. There is one spot almost everyone exempts from those rules: localhost. The service bound to loopback gets a pass, because for twenty years "it only listens on localhost" meant "an outsider cannot reach it." Microsoft's AutoJack ...

Hello, I'm Kushagra and I am the indie developer behind LookAway (I've posted about it earlier but it has received quite a lot of updates since the last time so I am posting it again). LookAway is a native break reminder for macOS that doesn't interrupt. I built it because I work from home and I spend a lot of time in front of my screens. It's very easy for me to get lost in the flow and I can end up sitting for hours. Due to this, I started facing issues like eye strain and back pain by the end...
