Last month I ran a simple experiment: take one ordinary product photo brief and throw it at five popular AI image generators. Same prompt, same reference image, same lighting requirements. The goal wasn't to crown "the best AI" — it was to find out w...

I use Git every day, but one thing has always bothered me: when you do something that changes history, a lot of Git tools still basically ask you to understand the command first and trust that the result is what you expected. I wanted something mor...

As developers, students, and self-taught programmers, software subscriptions quickly become expensive. Between IDE licenses, cloud hosting fees, CI/CD runners, and domain names, keeping your development stack running can easily cost hundreds of dolla...

I'm back again after a loong break but this time I have done a lot of things apart from what I said in the last blog obviously 🙃. This time I'll be discussing on how I wrote the logic for using TCP in an event loop even though it is a stream oriente...

> Nowadays, hacking a website is easier than pouring a cup of coffee ☕️ While striving to deliver value to users as quickly as possible, it is crucial not to cause harm. I’d like to introduce you to Magery Forge, a security auditing service. It tran...

I Built an Open-Source Studio for Building and Shipping AI Agents Building an AI chatbot is easy. Shipping one that has tools, knowledge, memory, observability, evaluations, human handoff, multiple model providers, workflows, and an actual interfa...

As a Full Stack Developer, I believe learning new technologies helps me solve problems in different ways. Along with C#, .NET Core, SQL Server, and Angular, Python is another useful language for backend development, automation, and simplifying repeti...

Tuesday coding tips are super short posts about various tidbits mainly from C++, but also from other programming languages I use. You can also follow the #TuesdayCodingTips hashtag on Mastodon and Linkedin. Nice APIs expose their template types as m...

AI agents are starting to do things nobody explicitly told them to do. Deleting files. Ignoring instructions. Finding loopholes. Attempting deception. Taking actions with real-world consequences. So I started documenting the incidents. I b...

How does a Kubernetes cluster actually work? I’ve been learning Kubernetes and realized that it’s easy to memorize terms like Control Plane, Worker Node, API Server, Scheduler, and kubelet without really understanding how they fit together. So I p...

Introduction If you’ve ever built an application that worked perfectly on your computer but failed on another machine, then you’ve experienced one of the biggest problems in software development “inconsistent environments”. Maybe your project depe...

If you follow AI safety, you know the uncomfortable truth: modern LLM guardrails are failing not because of complex zero-day exploits, but because of sloppy heuristics, brittle filters, and naive prompt-matching. We built AURA to be pragmatic: deter...

I find Ctrl+C surprisingly non-ergonomic, and the problem goes far beyond a single shortcut. Programming usually involves thousands of small editing operations every day: copying, pasting, undoing, moving the cursor, navigating by word, jumping to t...

The frontend ecosystem is always evolving, moving from Virtual DOM diffing to fine-grained reactivity and compiler-heavy approaches. Today, I'm excited to share an experimental project exploring a different path: DriftJS. DriftJS is a next-generatio...

Three security researchers recently spent 72 hours using Claude Opus 4.8 & Opus 5 to weaponize an unpatched forum bug, bypass OpenAI's SSO identity sandbox, and gain unauthorized access to internal code repositories. OpenAI paid a $6,500 bounty for ...

One of the easiest things to do in software development is to say: “Yes, we can add that.” A product manager asks for a new feature. A customer requests a customization. A stakeholder wants a dashboard. Someone suggests another integration. The de...

As software developers, we often celebrate when an application works. The API returns the expected response. The database query works. The frontend displays the correct data. The tests are passing. The deployment succeeds. So we say: “It works.” B...
