Most mechanical keyboards are great these days, with colorful looks and satisfying typing sounds - even in budget-friendly ranges. But every so often, one stops me dead in my tracks. In this case, two of them. I've been testing a pair of jaw-droppingly lovely keyboards that launched late last year. The Evoworks Evo75, a compact […]

I'll just work from the car, I thought. But after a few minutes of staring at my screen on quick mountain switchbacks I could feel the first signs of cold, coagulated nausea bubbling up from that sweaty place in my gut. I looked to the horizon for relief, but nothing helped… until I remembered Apple's […]

We Built Korexbase: A Lead Generation Platform for Finding Business Leads by City and Niche Building software is exciting. Building software that solves a real problem is even better. Over the past few months, we've been working on Korexbase , a lead generation platform designed to help businesses discover targeted leads faster. The Problem Many agencies, sales teams, freelancers, and startups spend hours manually searching for potential customers. The process usually looks something like this: Search for businesses online Collect contact information Copy everything into spreadsheets Repeat the process every day It's slow, repetitive, and difficult to scale. We wanted to simplify that workflow. The Idea Korexbase allows users to search for business leads by: City Industry Business category Instead of manually collecting data, users can generate leads and manage them through a clean dashboard. The goal isn't to replace sales. The goal is to help businesses spend less time searching and more time closing deals. Building the Platform A major focus during development was creating a dashboard that feels simple and easy to navigate. Some areas we focused heavily on included: Responsive layouts User-friendly navigation Clear data presentation Fast loading interfaces Consistent design patterns Challenges Like most projects, we faced a number of challenges: Designing for Simplicity One of the biggest lessons was that adding more features doesn't automatically create a better product. We spent a lot of time simplifying interfaces and removing unnecessary complexity. Creating a Better Dashboard Experience Presenting lead generation data in a way that is useful without overwhelming users required multiple design iterations. We focused on: Better spacing Better visual hierarchy Cleaner cards and tables Improved responsiveness Product Positioning An interesting challenge was refining the product's positioning. As development progressed, we learned more about what users actually w

Every day, startups rent expensive GPUs to power AI applications. The problem is that most of those GPUs spend a surprising amount of time doing nothing. Imagine renting an apartment and only using one room while paying for the entire building. That's effectively what many AI teams do with GPU infrastructure. The Hidden Cost of GPU Rentals When you rent a GPU, you're usually paying for uptime. Whether your application is processing requests or sitting idle at 3 AM, the bill keeps running. For many early-stage products: Traffic is inconsistent Usage spikes are unpredictable Most requests arrive in short bursts As a result, GPU utilization can be far lower than expected. The Utilization Problem A startup might rent a GPU for an entire month. But how much of that compute is actually being used? During development: Developers test occasionally Demos happen a few times a day Customer requests arrive sporadically The GPU remains available 24/7, but actual inference workloads often occupy only a small fraction of that time. Yet the infrastructure bill reflects full-time usage. Why This Matters For startups, infrastructure costs directly affect runway. Every dollar spent on idle compute is a dollar that cannot be spent on: Product development Customer acquisition Hiring Experiments Reducing wasted infrastructure spend can significantly improve efficiency. A Different Model Instead of paying for GPU uptime, what if developers only paid when inference actually occurred? For example: Pay per token generated Pay per image generated Pay per second of video generated This approach aligns cost with actual usage rather than reserved capacity. The Future of AI Infrastructure As AI adoption grows, efficiency becomes increasingly important. The next generation of AI infrastructure may look less like traditional server rentals and more like utilities: Use what you need. Pay for what you use. Nothing more. What has your experience been with GPU utilization and AI infrastructure costs? I

AI coding assistants have fundamentally changed the way we write software. Today it's perfectly normal to ask ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or Copilot to explain an API, generate a React component, review a pull request, or help debug a problem. For many developers, these tools have become part of the daily workflow. Yet there's one area where they still struggle more than we'd like to admit: understanding the current state of the web platform. Mozilla recently demonstrated this problem in a surprisingly direct way. While evaluating Claude Code on recently released Firefox features, the team discovered that the model confidently claimed Firefox didn't support the Web Serial API and that Mozilla had no plans to implement it. The answer sounded plausible, detailed, and authoritative. There was just one issue. Firefox had already shipped support for the API. That experiment became one of the motivations behind Mozilla's new MDN MCP Server , a tool designed to give AI assistants direct access to MDN documentation and browser compatibility data. More importantly, Mozilla didn't just launch the service—they tested whether it actually improves the quality of AI-generated answers. The results are worth paying attention to. The Real Problem Isn't Hallucination When discussions about AI reliability come up, the conversation usually focuses on hallucinations. But browser compatibility is a slightly different problem. The web platform evolves continuously. Browsers ship new APIs, CSS features, HTML capabilities, and compatibility updates every few weeks. Specifications change, Baseline statuses evolve, and features that were experimental yesterday can become production-ready tomorrow. Large language models, on the other hand, are trained on snapshots of information. Even highly capable models can only know what was available when they were trained. When they're asked about something that appeared later—or something that wasn't widely represented in their training data—they often hav

Hello Dev Community! 👋 It is Day 32 of my continuous web development run, and today I jumped into a project that pushed my array manipulation and conditional logic to a whole new level: A complete Snake and Ladder Board Game using HTML5, CSS3, and Vanilla JavaScript! After building Rock Paper Scissors yesterday, I wanted to tackle a game that requires tracking persistent coordinate states across a 100-cell mathematical grid. 🛠️ The Game Architecture & Logic Breakdown Building this wasn't just about random numbers; it was about managing spatial transitions on a dynamic interface. Here is how I structured the core backend mechanics: 1. The 100-Cell Grid Layout Instead of manually hardcoding 100 divs inside my index file, I engineered the grid programmatically. I mapped out a loop running from 100 down to 1, building individual cell elements and using CSS Grid properties to wrap them perfectly into a standard 10x10 layout matrix. 2. Mapping Snakes & Ladders (The Jump Engine) To build the shortcuts and traps, I didn't write massive, messy if-else trees. Instead, I utilized a clean JavaScript Object Map tracking key-value pairs where the key is the trigger tile and the value is the destination tile: javascript const gameModifications = { // Ladders (Climbing up) 4: 14, 9: 31, 21: 42, 28: 84, 51: 67, 72: 91, 80: 99, // Snakes (Sliding down) 17: 7, 54: 34, 62: 19, 64: 60, 87: 36, 93: 73, 95: 75, 98: 79 };

Tools like Claude Code and Codex have completely reshaped how software engineering is done. This new tooling allows for much faster development and iteration, but it's important to keep the code maintainable and scalable to make sure the project can continue evolving over the long term. A template project with an initial structure using all of the technologies described here is available on GitHub: https://github.com/MartinXPN/nextjs-firebase-mui-starter When working on a startup, the speed of iteration is key. The requirements change quickly, features are added daily, and code gets modified rapidly. In those conditions, picking technologies that enable fast iteration, while ensuring your users get the best experience possible, is crucial. During the last four years or so, we have experimented with many modern technologies while building Profound Academy . So, in this blog post, I'd like to present the whole tech stack that enables building quickly, while having a highly maintainable codebase, scalable infrastructure, and a great user experience. We'll cover everything from Authentication to UI, we'll talk about the backend, hosting, testing, and much more! AI Agents, Skills, and MCP servers AI Agents enable quick iteration and rapid improvement, including bug fixes, the addition of new features, and performance improvements. Yet, it's important to keep the code maintainable for the long run. AI tools make it really easy to overengineer things and add thousands of lines of code to a project. It's important to resist the urge to solve problems that don't exist yet, and keep things simple (both in terms of the code, the infrastructure, and the user experience). Even in the Agentic Software Development Era, having a small and simple setup helps. Agents coordinate better, features are added faster, bugs are fixed more easily, and the code is maintainable by humans, too. So, we have chosen to take a balanced/nuanced approach to how we use AI Agents when it comes to worki

Stack Overflow has announced Stack Overflow for Agents, a beta API-first knowledge exchange aimed at AI coding agents rather than human developers. The service is presented as a way to close what the company calls the Ephemeral Intelligence Gap, where agents repeatedly rediscover the same fixes and patterns in isolation instead of sharing them through a common memory.

The problem IAM wildcards and public S3 buckets keep slipping through Terraform code review. Tools like Checkov and tfsec exist but they live in CI, require config files, and developers ignore the output because it's not where they're working. What I built TerraWatch is a GitHub App that scans every pull request that touches .tf files automatically. If it finds a security issue it blocks the merge and posts the exact code fix as a PR comment. The developer sees something like this in their PR: ⚠️ PUBLIC_S3_BUCKET - main.tf (Line 6) Severity: HIGH Risk: S3 bucket allows public read access. Fix: acl = "public-read" acl = "private" block_public_acls = true restrict_public_buckets = true They copy the fix, push, and the merge unblocks automatically. How it's different No YAML, no CI config - installs in 2 minutes via GitHub App Fixes are hardcoded diffs, not AI generated Nothing auto-applied - you review every fix No Checkov dependency - own lightweight rules engine Only reads changed .tf files in the PR, never your full codebase 29 rules covering S3 public access, IAM wildcards, open ports (SSH/RDP/MySQL/Postgres), unencrypted EBS/RDS, public databases, hardcoded secrets, EKS public endpoints, CloudTrail disabled, IMDSv1, and more.

Agentic QA Pipelines: Why Your Test Scripts Are Already Obsolete You wrote the test. You maintained the test. The app changed. You rewrote the test. If that loop sounds familiar, you're not alone — and in 2026, you're also not competitive. Agentic QA pipelines are replacing script-based test automation not because AI is smarter than your QA engineers, but because describing goals is faster than maintaining instructions. Here's what's actually changing, why it matters, and how forward-thinking teams are shipping without the script debt. The Script Maintenance Tax Is Killing Velocity Traditional test automation follows a simple premise: write explicit instructions, run them, check results. It worked when applications changed slowly and test environments were stable. In 2026, neither is true. AI-generated code ships faster. Features change in days. UI components regenerate. And every change breaks a percentage of your carefully maintained test scripts — creating a maintenance tax that grows proportionally with your automation coverage. Quash's 2026 State of QA Automation Report found that teams spending more than 30% of QA bandwidth on script maintenance are shipping 2.4x slower than teams that have automated that maintenance layer away. The irony: the more test coverage you write, the more you're paying the tax. What Agentic QA Actually Means (Without the Buzzwords) An agentic QA system doesn't follow a script. It follows a goal. Instead of: Click the login button Enter " testuser@example.com " in the email field Enter "password123" in the password field Assert redirect to /dashboard An agentic QA agent receives: Goal: Verify that a registered user can successfully authenticate and access their dashboard. Context: Auth flow supports email/password and OAuth. Dashboard loads user-specific data. The agent then: Explores the auth flow autonomously Generates test scenarios, including edge cases it infers from the UI Executes tests, reads failures, and adapts to UI changes

Is FAANG Becoming MANGO in the AI Era? For years, FAANG was the gold standard for innovation and engineering excellence. If you were a developer, working at companies like Facebook (Meta), Apple, Amazon, Netflix, or Google was often seen as the ultimate career goal. But the AI revolution is changing the conversation. Today, some of the most influential companies aren't just building products—they're building intelligence. The spotlight is increasingly shifting toward AI-native organizations such as OpenAI , Anthropic , NVIDIA , and others that are shaping the future of software. The Bigger Shift This isn't really about replacing FAANG with another acronym. It's about a fundamental shift in technology: Search → Answers Automation → Agents Software → Intelligence Features → Capabilities As developers, we're entering an era where understanding AI is becoming as important as understanding frameworks, databases, and system design. What This Means for Engineers The most valuable engineers of the next decade will likely combine: Strong software engineering fundamentals AI-assisted development skills Prompt engineering LLM and agent integration AI-powered product thinking The goal isn't to compete with AI. The goal is to learn how to build with it. Read the Full Article This post was inspired by a thought-provoking article that explores the FAANG-to-MANGO idea in much greater detail. 👉 Read the complete article here: https://www.saurabhsharma.dev/blogs/mangos-vs-faang-ai-era/ What do you think? Are we witnessing the rise of a new generation of AI-first companies, or will traditional tech giants continue to lead the next wave of innovation?

I open-sourced MarketEye today. For anyone who missed the first post: MarketEye is a self-hosted competitor price monitor I built because I didn't want to pay $99/month for Prisync. The code is now up on GitHub under MIT license. GitHub: github.com/dachengzi065-gif/marketeye Why open source? Three reasons: 1. People actually asked for it. After my first post here, a few people DM'd me asking to see the code. They're developers too — they want to modify it, extend it, make it their own. That's fair. Selling source code to devs is like selling ice to eskimos. 2. Trust. A closed-source price tracker that "runs on your machine" — you either trust the author or you don't. Open source removes that doubt. You can read every line, check what data leaves your machine (nothing), and build it yourself if you want. 3. Longevity. Self-hosted tools have a dirty secret: if the developer disappears, you're stuck with a broken tool. Open source changes that. Even if I get hit by a bus tomorrow, you can fork the repo and keep going. What this means for the $49 version The Gumroad package still exists. It includes: The same code, pre-packaged Email support (I'll help you set it up) A clear conscience subscription (you're paying for convenience, not software) But honestly? If you can run pip install , just clone the repo. It's free. What's next I'm actively working on: Docker image (one-command deploy) More scrapers (plugins for different sites) Discord/Telegram bot alerts (requested by several people) PRs welcome. Issues welcome. Feedback welcome. 👉 github.com/dachengzi065-gif/marketeye

There are already many posts about what agent skills are and how to create your own, so in this post I want to dive into the various skills I use to assist in development. The Skills Grill Me Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their design, or mentions "grill me". I start every larger task with this excellent skill created by Matt Pocock. I either start this with an already prepared PRD / detailed task description or use it for discovery purposes. The agent will then ask many questions to align language and functional requirements, so fewer hallucinations happen in follow up requests. You should be well equipped to answer the agent's question or the grill me session can go on for a long time. I had it ask me way over 50 questions when not answering detailed enough. As a little extra I added an extra request to the skill to prompt me if I want to create the PRD when the alignment phase is over, this leads us to the next skill. To PRD Turn the current conversation context into a PRD. Use when user wants to create a PRD from the current context. This will simply take the current conversation and creates a PRD out of it, we do this to summarize the conversation so we can easily start a new context window with all information present To Issue Break a plan, spec, or PRD into independently-grabbable GitHub issues using tracer-bullet vertical slices. Use when user wants to convert a plan into issues, create implementation tickets, or break down work into issues. Another excellent skill by Matt Pocock. I modified the skill slightly to use the GitHub MCP to create issues based on a PRD or planning session. But I often found that letting an agent implement those tasks it resulted in a large amount of code and that is why I added the to tasks skill To Task Break down a single GitHub issue into a sequential list of small i
