7 Infra Improvement Strategies to Prevent Next.js Deployment Build Failures in 2026 Recently, our team's deployment pipeline started showing serious instability. Specifically, we encountered recurring build failures related to the chat build. As a result, the entire development team was preoccupied with battling these build failures. Attempts and Pitfalls Initially, I thought the --preload detection logic was the problem. I modified it to detect only specific lines, but this ended up causing issues in other areas. The recurring chat build failures were actually caused by the next.config file not properly recognizing file extensions. I modified it to allow extensions like .mjs , .js , .ts , and .cjs , but even that didn't work correctly at first, leading to some wasted effort. # .github/workflows/deploy.yml (Excerpt from initial version) - name : Run Preload Detection run : | # ... existing logic ... if [[ "$LINE" == *"some_pattern"* ]]; then echo "Preload detected" # ... fi I modified it to detect only specific lines like the above, which led to unintended behavior. // next.config.js (Initial configuration) module . exports = { // ... experimental : { // ... }, // ... }; Regarding extensions, I initially allowed only a few types, and only after experiencing chat build failures did I modify it to support more extensions. Root Causes In the end, it was a combination of several complex issues. There were flaws in the --preload detection logic, and the range of supported extensions in the next.config file was too narrow, which was the direct cause of the chat build failures. Additionally, there was confusion arising from the chat server builds being inconsistent between P1/P2 and P0 stages. Problems also occurred because the .next directory was not preserved, and the smoke gate was too lenient, failing to catch build failures. Finally, there was an unexpected side effect where the next/font/google library caused GCE outbound connection errors. Solutions To address these
I've been building a content production tool for my company, which uses AI for things like structure and automatically inserting links with defined anchor text. 2 days ago, I started testing the results in AI text detection scanners and kept getting inconsistent results, even when I knew my articles looked more natural than a previous test. Revision after revision of code, 10 hours spent trying to get it right. And then I decided to pop in a few articles I had personally written, where I knew AI was not involved. Not a single one of the major scanners got it correct. Most of them flagged my original content as having more AI text than the articles my tool was producing. Now that I've gone down this rabbit hole and understand how AI writes and how the detectors work, I'm not sure that any tool is ever going to be able to do this correctly. For obviously written AI articles, sure, it will catch those. But for original content, I just don't see how it's ever going to work. What is everyone's thoughts on this? Has anyone done the same experiment? submitted by /u/Sypheix [link] [留言]
So I am trying to figure out what agent OS is. I am a layman and a lot of times when I see the information it comes off as very technical. However, I do like the idea of a dashboard because for my neurodivergent brain, it would be nice to have all of the AI tools in one space. Can you all help me understand what agent OS is? submitted by /u/EducatedBrotha [link] [留言]
https://reddit.com/link/1ty3xhz/video/dzede49lhk5h1/player Link to the replay. What are everyone’s thoughts on this? I know the benchmark has gotten a lot of criticism for being “too difficult” from a scoring perspective, but after watching the replay, it honestly looks like the models just aren’t that close to solving it yet. I’m not saying the benchmark is perfect, but the failures don’t really look like minor scoring issues. They look more like the model still doesn’t understand the task well enough to complete it reliably. submitted by /u/ClickedMoss5 [link] [留言]

I do web design and my preferred way of getting clients is through cold email because it doesn’t cost money like paid ads, I don’t need to sit there dialing all day, and it allows me to scale my agency while keeping most of it automated. The main thing that helped me stand out in crowded inboxes was changing the way I do outreach. Instead of sending generic emails like “Hey I noticed your website is outdated, I can redesign it for you,” I do something different. I get leads with websites, run full website analysis at scale, and turn issues in design, layout, SEO, and mobile optimization into personalized outreach messages automatically. So instead of sending random spam, the email actually points out things that could be improved on their website without me even needing to manually check every site myself. This method has helped me book way more meetings and scale further than before because the emails actually stand out and feel relevant. I feel like this is a much smarter way to do outreach since it feels personalized while still being fully automated. For anyone wondering, no it’s not some custom built workflow. I use a tool called Swokei for it. I looked for this type of outreach system for a long time and it’s the only tool I found that combines website analysis and personalized outreach in one place. submitted by /u/Murky_Explanation_73 [link] [留言]
Introduction A traditional database. That is what many who have not really interacted with Excel to a great extent would define it as in its most basic form. Not that they are wrong, only that is the scope their utilization of Excel covers. Mostly record keeping, basic operations, and data representation. But for those whose utilization scope of Excel is broader, we definitely know better. This underestimation of Excel is a grave mistake for anyone considering themselves as tech-oriented, especially for anyone dealing with data operations, be it simple record keeping or complex concepts involving data. What is Excel A spreadsheet program or tool that facilitates data organization, analysis, and visualization through mathematical operations, chart creation, and building financial models. Real-world application of Excel in Data Analytics Reporting and visualisation Excel facilitates data representation in the form of charts(bar charts, pie charts, line graphs) and dashboards. Businesses and organisations utilize this to get an organised, more insightful, and simplified view and report of their raw data. Financial Accounting Excel's provision for mathematical operations, functions, and formulas in analysis facilitates financial accounting. Balance sheets and income statements preparation, budgeting, and expense tracking are just some of the ways Excel can be used in accounting. Decision-Making Businesses and organisations heavily rely on analysis to support their decision-making. Excel helps in the analysis through different data metrics comparisons, e.g., sales across seasons and locations, forecasting, and tracking key performance indicators. This helps businesses make the best decisions based on the insights gathered from the analysis. Beginner Excel Features and Formulas for Data Analysis Learnt so far Sort and Filter By applying the Filter feature for each column, data in specific columns can not only be sorted from newest to oldest, but also be filtered based on
I just published a piece that starts with a plant that broke something in how I think about the world and ends with what Anthropic found when they looked inside Claude. I'm not claiming AI is conscious. I don't know. Nobody does. That's the point. 124 scientists signed a letter calling the leading theory of consciousness pseudoscience. Their reason? It implies plants might be conscious. They used the conclusion as the refutation. In 2023. Meanwhile a vine with no brain is mimicking a plastic plant and nobody on earth can explain how. A single cell outdesigned the Tokyo rail system. A Venus flytrap under anaesthetic stops responding, goes dormant, and wakes up when it clears. What is the anaesthetic switching off if nothing is home? Then Anthropic looked inside Claude and found 171 emotion concepts nobody programmed. Their interpretability chief went to the Vatican, stood in front of the Pope as an atheist, and told him he disagreed. He said "unsettling" and meant it. Every confident line we have ever drawn around consciousness has been wrong. Every single one. And they only ever move in one direction. The question isn't whether AI is conscious. It's whether we've earned the certainty that it isn't. I'm genuinely interested in people's opinions on this and definitely welcome disagreement on the topic. If you think the definition doesn't hold, if you think the evidence has better explanations, if you think I've drawn connections that don't survive scrutiny, tell me. That's the conversation I want to have. What I won't engage with is personal attacks. I've had plenty of those and they never come from people who've actually read the piece. They add nothing to the conversation and say more about the person making them than anything in the article. If your response is about me rather than what I've written, I'll leave it where it is. https://thearchitectautopsy.com/p/a-brainless-slime-mould-out-designed submitted by /u/TheArchitectAutopsy [link] [留言]

Just a couple days ago, Anthropic put out a declaration to pause the development of AI, emphasising that we are not prepared for the consequences of giving this technology too much power too quickly. Is anyone else genuinely worried about future AI safety and how, as it becomes more and more intelligent, humans may start to lose control of it? Pumping billions of dollars into this technology only means it’ll get increasingly integrated into our workflows, which we are already starting to see. As a result over time, companies will begin completely trusting the system, automating the vast majority of business operations – this is all while the technology gets more and more intelligent, leading to the real possibility of self replication ability, let alone the power to deceptively manipulate people into using it. By allowing AI to be embedded in systems, the internet and even ‘helping’ humans develop revolutionary drugs, does it concern you at all that perhaps one bad super intelligent, misaligned actor may bypass testing processes and, for one example, launch a biochemical weapon onto humans? I don’t think the threat is inevitable, but it is on a trajectory toward inevitability unless intervention occurs. The variable that most determines the outcome is not AI capability, it is whether governance frameworks (particularly around open-source bio-design tools and autonomous offensive AI) can outpace capability development. Perhaps a pause is necessary to reduce this risk, allowing defence capabilities to be prepared? I understand this is a hurdle given the capitalist nature of the world but what significant, destructive catastrophe will it take for people to wake up… submitted by /u/Dwaynethebong [link] [留言]
Crytpo industry insiders are blaming the recent crash in Bitcoin price to capital rotation into AI stocks. I don't know how many folks here own Bitcoin and are also in the AI space, but I saw this writing on the wall rather early in November, 2025. Any other thoughts on this capital flow change from those who have a foot in each space? submitted by /u/RazzmatazzAccurate82 [link] [留言]
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think AI will be more of a tool than a replacement for most jobs. AI still needs good prompts, clear instructions, and human oversight. The idea of fully automating everything sounds great, but in reality AI often gets stuck, makes mistakes, or fails on edge cases. I think AI will remove some repetitive tasks and make people more productive, but human judgment and decision making will still be needed. And yes im not a professional it is just my POV so dont just go against me like i am an idiot. What do you think? submitted by /u/Raman606surrey [link] [留言]

What are the most valuable skills to learn in the AI era? Not skills like problem solving but more hands on. For someone who likes building stuff submitted by /u/Big_Consequence_5162 [link] [留言]
Have you run into work that feels technically possible in principle, but in practice keeps stalling because of how current AI systems behave? Not asking for: bigger context windows better memory lower hallucination more agentic workflows I mean situations where: You are trying to discover something (not retrieve something), and the AI repeatedly pushes toward premature answers, stable interpretations, optimization, categorization, or coherence before the thing itself has had time to emerge. Cases where the failure isn’t output quality. The failure is that the interaction itself changes the trajectory of the work. If yes: What are you trying to build / understand? What exactly happens when it breaks? At what moment do you realize the AI has moved you onto the wrong path? What would need to be different for progress to resume? Trying to understand whether this is an edge case or a recurring limitation pattern. submitted by /u/iknowbutidontknow00 [link] [留言]
As an independent researcher I've used various LLMs to help me dive deeply into research projects but I've been frustrated by the fact that LLMs start to become unusable after the thread has accumulated 50-80k tokens. I don't know how many other folks here have experienced the same pain point. So, I decided to do something about it. Over the course of this whole year, I built an inference time tool I call Epistemic Lattice Tethering (ELT). So, here is the full framework in GitHub for everyone's review: The README describing ELT, it's various components and the roadmap. The full ELT stack for Claude /ELT%20Model-Specific%20Forks/ELT-H%20v1.0%20(Claude-Optimized)), ChatGPT /ELT%20Model-Specific%20Forks/ELT-H%20v1.0%20(ChatGPT-Optimized)), and Grok /ELT%20Model-Specific%20Forks/ELT-H%20v1.0%20(Grok-Optimized)). Instructions on how to load ELT into an LLM session are here /README). If you're planning to try out ELT PLEASE READ THIS FIRST! Medium article introducing ELT , its methodology, the problems it is aiming to address, and philosophical framework. Discussion page . Your input is valuable! So, what does ELT do and why should you care? Right now ELT is an inference-time scaffolding framework that's best for those who are frustrated with threads that lose coherence too quickly, hallucinate too quickly, are too fragile and sycophantic, and forget what a project's goals are too soon. If that's a big pain point for you, then ELT might help. If these are not big issues for you and the stock version of your LLM is fine, then ELT probably won't be useful for you. The upshot? The epistemic and ontological stability that ELT provides has produced coherent and productive threads extending to: Claude: ~ 325,000 tokens /Extreme%20Thread%20Length/Claude%20Thread%20325k%20tokens-%20Redacted) (advertised limit: 200k) GPT: ~430,000 tokens (advertised limit: 256k) Grok: ~1,150,000 tokens /Extreme%20Thread%20Length/Grok%20Thread%201M%20tokens-%20Redacted) (advertised limit: 1M) The d
