Hello Dev.to Hello everyone, This is my very first post here at Dev.to. I am curious about how companies go about running their business in the backstage and, specifically, what kind of challenges do they face in their inventory management, warehousing, workplace technologies, and overall business systems. There have been plenty of times that I witnessed how little operational inefficiencies turn into big business problems when left untreated for too long. I intend to share my observations and learnings regarding the topics of inventory management, asset management, workflow improvement, and business systems used by companies to keep themselves organized and efficient. Please note that I am not here to pretend having all the right answers. It's simply an attempt at learning and exchanging ideas within the industry. See you around!

I work on a computer all day. Multiple projects, lots of switching, constant interruptions. A while back I noticed I was losing track of my own work. Not really the big things but mostly the small stuff. The decision I made on Tuesday about why I structured something a certain way. The thing I was halfway through when a Slack message pulled me away. The task that never made it onto any list because it felt too small to write down (but I ended up forgetting about after lunch until 2 days later). By Friday I'd look back at the week and genuinely struggle to piece together everything I actually did. I tried obsidian (and still actively use it). I also tried just being more disciplined. None of it fully stuck because the friction of capturing things manually meant I only ever captured the stuff I already remembered. The messy ad-hoc stuff that actually eats a lot of my time never made it anywhere. I'm curious if other people deal with this. Not the big project management stuff because that's mostly solved, but rather, the stuff in between. The context that lives in your head and disappears the moment you get interrupted. How do you handle it?

Hello everyone! It has been a busy week, but I've made some exciting progress on my machine learning journey. Here is what I've been up to: Kaggle Orbit Wars & AWS I completed the baseline implementation for the Kaggle Orbit Wars competition and initially hit a score of around 1030. My score has dipped slightly over the past few days, so I am currently brainstorming ways to improve it. This week also marked my very first time using AWS! I used it to extract data for reinforcement learning. Transparency check: I spent exactly $7.58 USD on AWS resources during the process. Paper Reading & RL Insights I spent a lot of time reading research papers this week. AlphaZero: I was initially excited about using the self-play mechanism from AlphaZero. However, because this specific game has rock-paper-scissors dynamics, standard self-play might not work effectively. AlphaStar: This led me to the AlphaStar paper, which uses self-play combined with League Training . The engineering behind AlphaStar is incredible. Two specific concepts really stood out to me: Pointer Networks and V-trace off-policy correction . I was also impressed by their use of an LSTM core to handle long-term memory. Next Steps Moving forward, I plan to leverage Kaggle, AWS, and GCP credits to train different components of my model. I am giving myself total freedom to experiment, imagine, and test unconventional solutions. Random life update to close out the week: I used to have long hair because I was insecure about my forehead, but I finally decided to shave it all off at home by myself. It honestly feels really weird right now, but it's a fresh start!

My Journey Towards AI and Software Development Hello everyone, My name is Kunal Tiwari, and I am a student who is passionate about technology, artificial intelligence, and software development. Technology has always fascinated me because it allows people to transform ideas into real-world solutions. Over time, I developed a strong interest in understanding how software is built and how AI can help solve everyday problems. I started exploring programming and software development with curiosity and a desire to learn. Although I am still at the beginning of my journey, I believe that consistent learning and practical projects are the best ways to grow as a developer. My current interests include: Artificial Intelligence (AI) Android App Development Software Engineering Problem Solving Building useful applications Through this blog, I plan to share my learning experiences, projects, challenges, and lessons that I discover along the way. My goal is not only to improve my technical skills but also to document my progress and connect with other learners and developers. I know the journey ahead will require patience, dedication, and continuous learning. However, I am excited about the opportunities that technology offers and look forward to building meaningful projects in the future. Thank you for reading my first post. I hope to share valuable insights and experiences as I continue my journey towards AI and software development. Best regards, Kunal Tiwari

Hey Folks! 👋 Good Day... This blog is a summary of the concepts covered during the last two classes at my institute. One of the reasons I enjoy writing these blogs is that they serve as my personal knowledge journal. Whenever I need a quick refresher on a concept, I can simply revisit my blog instead of searching through notes or recordings. It helps me reinforce what I've learned while also documenting my learning journey. Over the past two days, we explored several important Java concepts, including constructors, the this keyword, inheritance, constructor chaining. In this blog, I'll share what I learned in the simplest way possible, using real-world analogies, practical examples, and the thought process that helped me understand these concepts more clearly. If you're a beginner learning Java, I hope this walkthrough makes these topics a little easier to grasp and a lot more memorable. What Is a Constructor? According to Oracle Java Documentation: A constructor is a special method that is used to initialize objects. The constructor is called when an object of a class is created. In simple terms: Imagine you order a new smartphone. Before the phone reaches your hands, the factory installs the operating system, configures the hardware, and prepares everything for use. A constructor does exactly the same thing for an object. Before you use an object, Java uses the constructor to prepare it. My First Confusing Example I wrote the following code: public class SuperMarket { String name = "python" ; int price ; public SuperMarket ( String name , int price ) { System . out . println ( "Are you constructor?" ); name = name ; price = price ; } public static void main ( String [] args ) { SuperMarket product1 = new SuperMarket ( "abc" , 20 ); System . out . println ( product1 . name ); } } I expected the output to be: abc But Java printed: python And honestly... I was completely confused. After all, I passed "abc" into the constructor. Why was Java ignoring it? The Hotel Roo

Cursor's Developer Habits Report is one of the clearest signals yet that AI coding has crossed from individual productivity into software-delivery infrastructure. The headline numbers read as a story about speed: more code per week, larger PRs, deeper agent sessions, more changes committing without manual review. The deeper implication is governance -- whether teams can preserve architectural intent while generation, review, automation, and commit flows all accelerate at once. The velocity curve is now measured, not anecdotal. For two years the claim that AI coding is accelerating rested mostly on vibes and vendor decks. Cursor's data turns it into telemetry. And read as an operations document rather than a marketing one, that telemetry describes a structural shift: software delivery is getting harder to govern, not just faster to produce. This is not a critique of Cursor. The report is strong validation. Cursor proves the velocity curve with numbers most of the industry only gestured at. The point of this essay is what sits on the other side of that curve. What the Cursor Developer Habits Report Shows The inaugural Cursor Developer Habits Report (Spring 2026 edition), published by Cursor (Anysphere, Inc.), draws on Cursor usage data rather than survey responses. It captures the transformation across five themes -- developer acceleration, the economics of intelligence, the power user gap, the rise of context, and the shift to automation. The headline figures: 3.6K -> 8.6K lines added per developer per week -- the per-developer code volume rose from 3.6K (Jan 2025) to 8.6K (May 2026), with growth accelerating since the start of 2026. 125.86 -> 345.02 lines per PR at p75 -- lines added per pull request at the 75th percentile rose roughly 2.5x year over year (Jan 2025 to May 2026). Developers are taking on larger units of work in a single PR. 8% -> 13.8% mega PRs -- the share of PRs with at least 1,000 changed lines grew from 8% (Jan 2025) to 13.8% (May 2026). ~30% mor

Microsoft's Agentic Transformation Patterns Playbook is a useful signal because it does not treat AI agents as another productivity tool. It frames agentic AI as an enterprise operating-model shift: agents are moving from assisting humans to executing work across processes, systems, and teams. The implication for software teams is sharper than it looks -- coding agents are on the same trajectory, and architectural governance becomes part of the infrastructure stack the moment agents start executing. Microsoft's playbook describes six transformation patterns and emphasizes that each pattern requires different ownership, governance, and operating discipline. That is the move worth paying attention to. It reframes agentic AI from a model question into an enterprise operating-model question. That shift matters for software teams because coding agents are following the same path. They are moving from autocomplete to execution. Once agents edit files, open PRs, modify infrastructure, or coordinate multi-step changes, architectural governance becomes infrastructure. What is Microsoft's Agentic Transformation Playbook? Microsoft's playbook is a practical guide for choosing, scaling, and operating AI agents across the enterprise. Public summaries describe it as a 52-slide guide covering six transformation patterns, from employee productivity to core business processes and customer-facing agents. The throughline is that agents are not a single category -- they are a family of patterns with different ownership models, different risk surfaces, and different requirements for governance. That framing matters because it cuts against the dominant adoption narrative. Most enterprises are still treating AI as a per-team productivity story: this team gets Copilot, that team gets an internal assistant, another team is piloting an agent for support tickets. Microsoft is arguing that the pattern of deployment determines the operating discipline required, and that ad-hoc deployment does n

Google's Managed Agents announcement is one of the clearest signals yet that the AI industry is moving beyond stateless tool calling toward persistent execution environments and long-running agent systems. That shift expands what models can do. It also expands the governance surface -- from prompt and PR review into the runtime itself. We spent two years building brains in jars For most of the current AI cycle, the system around the model has been thin. Models could reason, propose commands, and orchestrate small tool calls. But they ran in short sessions, against narrow APIs, under human supervision, with ephemeral state. The model was a brain; the body was a few HTTP requests and a JSON tool schema. That assumption is ending. The frontier is not just better reasoning. It is a body for the brain. The brain finally has a body. Now it needs governance. The runtime layer for AI agents is arriving Google Managed Agents (and the parallel motion across the ecosystem -- OpenAI's containerized execution work, Claude Code's persistent sessions, MCP-based tool ecosystems, hosted agent harnesses) formalizes the runtime as a product: Sandboxed execution Persistent state across sessions Orchestration loops Infrastructure-native agents Agent-as-a-service lifecycle Long-running sessions Mid-session tool injection Managed runtime lifecycle This resembles the transition from scripts -> applications -> cloud platforms. Agents are no longer just calling tools. They are beginning to inhabit programmable environments . Why persistent agent systems change governance Once agents can continuously modify filesystems, maintain state across sessions, autonomously remediate, inject tools dynamically, operate against production systems, and coordinate across workflows, governance failures stop being one-off review misses. They compound over time . What that compounding looks like: Architectural drift -- small deviations accumulate across long-running sessions Policy propagation failures -- con

The Faros AI Engineering Report 2026 is not a survey of developer sentiment. It is two years of telemetry from 22,000 developers across 4,000 teams, measuring what AI adoption actually produces downstream. The findings have a name: the Acceleration Whiplash. The structural explanation has one too. What the telemetry actually shows The output numbers in the Faros report are real and worth stating plainly. Epics completed per developer are up 66.2%. Task throughput per developer is up 33.7%. PR merge rate per developer is up 16.2%. These represent genuine delivery acceleration, and dismissing them would be dishonest. AI coding tools are producing real productivity gains at the business level. The production quality numbers are also real: Metric Change Incidents per PR under high AI adoption +242.7% Median time in code review +441.5% Code churn (lines deleted to lines added) +861% PRs merged with no review at all 31.3% Source: Faros AI Engineering Report 2026: The Acceleration Whiplash . Telemetry from 22,000 developers across 4,000+ teams. Figures represent metric change from lowest to highest AI adoption periods within each organization. Both sets of numbers are true simultaneously. That is the whiplash. Throughput accelerated. The downstream systems built to validate that throughput did not. Plotted together, generation throughput rises steeply while control capacity stays nearly flat -- and the gap between the two curves is the governance debt. Why the systems did not scale Code review, incident response, and architectural validation were all designed for a world where development velocity was human-paced. A senior engineer could review the meaningful PRs in a sprint. An incident postmortem could trace a failure to a specific change and a specific decision gap. Architectural drift was visible because it moved slowly enough to catch. AI-generated code broke these assumptions quietly. Not because the code was obviously bad, but because it was often superficially conv

At Red Hat Summit 2026, SWIFT shared the approach they’re rolling out — including the pilot results that informed it, and the scale they’re targeting next. Imagine running automation that touches roughly one third of global GDP every day. Tens of thousands of VMs, network devices in production, elevated privileges across production systems — and every playbook you run is, effectively, a software supply chain. That is the everyday reality at SWIFT, the secure financial messaging backbone connecting 11,000+ financial institutions across more than 200 countries. At Red Hat Summit 2026, Suvasish Ghosh , Product Owner for CI/CD Engineering and DevOps Engineering Services at SWIFT, joined Gregor Berginc , CEO of XLAB Steampunk, on stage to talk about how SWIFT is using Steampunk Spotter to govern Ansible automation at this scale. Why automation at SWIFT scale needs governance by design For SWIFT, security, availability and auditability are not features added on top — they are baseline engineering requirements. Regulatory frameworks (including DORA) codify the expectations, but as Suvasish made clear on stage, governance is by design at SWIFT, not driven solely by regulation. That stance reflects a simple truth that more and more platform teams are arriving at: automation is production infrastructure, and it must be governed as such. When you run an Ansible playbook, you are executing a software supply chain — collections, modules, roles, Python packages, system packages, the execution environment, the operating system underneath. The playbook itself is just the tip of the iceberg. Errors propagate fast. The blast radius is large. And yet, until recently, most of the security and compliance attention in IT organizations went to the applications shipping to production. The automation that built and configured everything around them often slipped through. Suvasish put it directly during the session: “We spent a lot of time being compliant and secure in our application, but w

Hello Dev Community! 👋 It is officially Day 12 of my journey to master the MERN stack! Today, I wrapped up Lecture 3 of Apna College's JavaScript playlist with Shradha Didi, focusing on a fundamental data type we use every day: Strings . Before today, I thought strings were just plain text wrapped in quotes. Today, I learned how much power JavaScript gives us to manipulate, slice, and dynamically format text. 🧠 Key Learnings From JS Lecture 3 (Strings) I explored how JavaScript handles text strings and the built-in properties and methods that make text manipulation effortless: 1. Template Literals (The Ultimate Game Changer) Shradha Didi introduced Template Literals , which use backticks ( ` ) instead of standard quotes. This allows us to perform String Interpolation —embedding variables directly inside a string using ${variable} . It makes code look clean and professional: javascript let obj = { item: "pen", price: 10 }; // Old way: console.log("The cost of", obj.item, "is", obj.price, "rupees."); // Modern way: console.log(`The cost of ${obj.item} is ${obj.price} rupees.`);

Em 2023, eu arrumei as malas e saí de Recife, minha terra natal, para morar no interior do Mato Grosso. O motivo? Cursar Ciência da Computação. Eu sabia que enfrentaria um choque cultural, o calor do Centro-Oeste e a saudade de casa. O que eu não imaginei é que o maior desafio seria a sensação constante de que eu era uma fraude no meio da minha própria sala de aula. Se você estuda ou trabalha com tecnologia, provavelmente já passou por isso. Você senta na primeira semana de aula e parece que metade da turma já programa desde os 12 anos, fala termos técnicos que parecem outra língua e discute sobre ferramentas que você nem sabia que existiam. Hoje, na reta final da graduação, focando meus estudos em Back-end e Dados, quebrando a cabeça com Go, Python e SQL, eu olho para trás e vejo o quanto essa cobrança silenciosa quase me paralisou. Se você está sentindo que entrou no curso errado ou que todo mundo corre a 100 km/h enquanto você ainda está engatinhando, pega um café e vem ler este papo reto sobre como lidar com a tal da Síndrome do Impostor. O "efeito vitrine" e a falsa ilusão de que somos os únicos perdidos Na faculdade de TI, a comparação é quase inevitável. A gente abre o LinkedIn e vê o colega conseguindo estágio internacional; abre o GitHub e vê códigos impecáveis; na sala de aula, sempre tem quem responda às perguntas do professor antes mesmo dele terminar de falar. O erro está em achar que o ritmo do outro deve ditar o seu. Na Computação, as pessoas vêm de bagagens completamente diferentes. Quem já sabia programar antes da faculdade pode ter facilidade em Lógica de Programação, mas talvez sofra tanto quanto você quando chegar a hora de aprender Álgebra Linear ou Teoria da Computação. Sentir-se perdida não significa incompetência; significa apenas que você está no processo de aprender algo complexo. E adivinha? Todo mundo ali está tentando descobrir como as coisas funcionam, mesmo quem finge que sabe tudo. O que me ajudou a virar a chave Eu não acordei um dia

The specification lets developer, compliance, and security teams define their own policies for agents to follow in portable policy files.

Introduction Since I started publishing articles on Dev.to, I've been working on a personal project to transform my old blog website—which is no longer actively maintained—into a portfolio site ♻️ As part of that project, I recently started learning Figma and UI design🎨 When I discovered Figma MCP , I imagined a future where generative AI could automatically create polished, modern, and visually appealing designs for me with minimal effort 😎 Unfortunately, reality turned out to be quite different . This article is a reflection on that experience and a reminder to my future self about what I learned along the way📝 TL;DR I wanted to design a portfolio website in Figma , but quickly realized that UI design was more difficult than I expected. I wondered whether using Codex and Figma MCP would allow me to outsource the design process to AI , so I decided to try it. I couldn't magically generate the polished design I had imagined while also maintaining a well-structured Figma file with globally managed variants and reusable components. I learned that defining design rules first and building components step by step helped produce results that were much closer to my original vision. Even then, the process was not dramatically easier than expected, so I eventually decided to keep things simple and build my portfolio around the design principles already provided by shadcn/ui . What I Tried with Figma MCP🎨 While planning the UI design for my portfolio website , I initially created simple wireframe-like layouts in Figma to explore the overall page structure and component placement before working on detailed designs. At first, I wanted to keep things simple. However, as I continued working on the project, I found myself wanting something more polished, more modern, and ultimately more impressive . The problem was that I have very little confidence in my design skills. I'm an in-house IT engineer, not a professional developer or designer, so I often struggle to judge what makes a

This week's Java roundup for May 25th, 2026, features news highlighting: lifecycle changes with two of the JEPs that were targeted for JDK 27; the GA release of Koog 1.0; point releases of Hazelcast, Quarkus, Hibernate and JHipster; the eighth milestone release of Spring AI 2.0; and introducing Endive, a JVM-native WebAssembly (Wasm) runtime.

Amid a raging Ebola outbreak, officials "urgently accelerate development" of vaccines.

I build a security platform. Last night I stopped adding features and did something less fun and more honest: I sat down to make every capability prove it actually works — end to end, with real data, demanding a real pass or fail. "It ran" is not a pass. A page that renders is not a feature. A green checkmark is a claim, not evidence. So I went capability by capability and tried to break each one. I found four real bugs and one of them was a gut-punch: a whole detection engine that was wired into the UI, unit-tested, and never actually ran in production. Here's how the night went. The rule: drive it, don't admire it My method was boring on purpose. For each capability: Feed it real input through the real entry point (CLI or API), not a test fixture. Check the data actually landed (query the DB, don't trust the success message). Feed it a malicious input and a benign input — it has to fire on one and stay quiet on the other. The detection engine passed cleanly. I threw a PsExec process event at it and it lit up: $ zds-core detection eval --event '{"event_type":"process_create","process_name":"psexec.exe"}' 1 alert ( s ) : [ high] PsExec Execution — ( matched: map[process_name:psexec.exe] ) A wevtutil cl Security event tripped a critical "Log Clearing" rule. A plain notepad.exe matched nothing. Good — it detects, and it doesn't cry wolf. (Small UX papercut I fixed while I was there: if you forgot the event_type field, the engine silently matched nothing and printed "no rules matched" — which reads exactly like "you're safe." Now it warns you that the event can't match any rule. Silence that looks like safety is the most dangerous output a security tool can produce.) The one that hurt: ITDR Identity Threat Detection and Response. The engine has detectors for impossible travel, credential spraying, brute force, privilege escalation. All unit-tested. All green. I ran the real flow: POST two login events for one user — New York, then London thirty minutes later. That's ~5

In May, I continued my "One Commit a Day" Challenge and spent more time contributing across different open-source projects. Compared to April, I was able to contribute a bit more and explore a wider variety of repositories. Repositories That Stood Out Some of the projects that left the biggest impression on me were: python-odpt Huggin Face Context Course Human Signal ML ScribeSVG A Stable Checkpoint One milestone I was happy about this month was reaching a stable checkpoint for my Tokyo MCP Server project. It is still a work in progress, but getting to a point where the project feels stable enough to build upon was a satisfying moment. Documentation Matters Another contribution that stood out was helping improve a python-odpt README documentation . It wasn't a large technical contribution, but it reminded me that making a project easier for others to understand can be just as valuable as writing code. Good documentation lowers the barrier for future contributors. Sometimes, a clearer README can help more people than a small code change. Learning Beyond Python One practical lesson I learned this month was that being a Python-focused contributor doesn't mean I can ignore the JavaScript ecosystem . While working with different repositories, I finally installed Node.js and started using npm . Many modern open-source projects rely on TypeScript-based tooling, build systems, or development workflows, and understanding those tools makes contributing much easier. The Biggest Challenge: Finding Information And Communication Matters The biggest challenge I faced wasn't coding. It was documentation. Every repository has its own way of organizing information. There are definitely common patterns, but every project also develops its own style over time. Sometimes the information I need is in the README. Sometimes it's in a wiki. Sometimes it's buried in a docs folder several levels deep. And sometimes it's spread across all three. Open Source Is Also About Navigation As a contri
