AI coding agents are useful, but they still have one frustrating habit: They guess. You ask something reasonable like: āWhere do we validate user input before inserting into the database?ā And instead of knowing where to look, the agent starts reading files one by one. In a small project, that is fine. In a real production codebase with 80,000+ lines, multiple engineers, old decisions, half-renamed folders, and years of accumulated context, this gets messy fast. The agent reads a handful of file...
At the beginning of my Engineering career, I worked in a place where I had a lot of freedom to implement and experiment any technology I found interesting. I tried many technologies like PHP, Java, EJBs, SOAP, Rest and JavaScript. This gave me a lot of perspective, but I lacked the guidance and mentoring from more experienced developers. One of the most problematic things I built was a login. I would like to share in this document things that I did in the past so you understand why it is problem...
Six months ago I got tired of switching between apps to talk to AI. ChatGPT in the browser. Claude in another tab. Local models in a terminal. It was like having five friends who all live in different cities and refuse to visit each other. So I did what any developer with too many GPUs and too little patience would do: I built my own assistant and put it where I already spend my day ā Telegram. It's not a chatbot for customers. It's not a business automation tool. It's just... my assistant. It l...
Before this week, NFTs on Solana weren't new to me. I've previously worked with Programmable NFTs (pNFTs) and even built projects that integrate them. However, most of my experience was centered around the Metaplex ecosystem, so I tended to think about NFTs through that lens. What surprised me during this learning arc was discovering how much can be built directly with Token Extensions. By creating NFTs from the token level upward, I gained a much deeper understanding of the underlying primitive...

Video game remakes used to be a genuine surprise, whereas now they have become as common in the release schedule as new titles. But I don't think I've ever felt as unexcited about an upcoming remake as I have for Persona 4 Revival. That says a lot when I hold the original as one of my favorite JRPGs of all time, which I've sunk several hundred hours into across multiple playthroughs. On paper, you can see why a remake makes sense. Persona 4 is, after all, a beloved classic that's about to be old...

The vibe of Apple's 2026 WWDC keynote felt like a spouse proudly listing all the honey-do-list items tackled. One subtle example: the many AI demos of someone standing, phone in hand.
The filing comes a little more than a week after its main rival, Anthropic, also filed to go public, ramping up the race between the two AI firms.
Apple spent much of its WWDC keynote highlighting fixes, performance improvements, and long-requested features before unveiling its upgraded AI-powered Siri, signaling that the company wants users to see AI as just one part of a broader effort to improve its software.

Apple spending a big chunk of its WWDC keynote on parental controls was surprising for several reasons.

Why Apple chose to do this isn't [ā¦]
