Ties van der Meer doesn’t know how many siblings he has. The 47-year-old was conceived at a private fertility clinic in the Netherlands using sperm provided by an anonymous donor. After the Netherlands banned anonymous donation in 2004, the doctor who ran the clinic destroyed records that might have identified those donors, he says. He…

Adding cloud regions changes latency and cost in ways simple math can't capture. This article presents a framework from multiple launches: decompose your latency budget before committing to infrastructure, choose deployment patterns by consistency and traffic profile, and optimize before expanding. A phased approach cut latency 35% through routing alone, before a new region brought it under 60ms. By Uttara Asthana

In this podcast Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods spoke to Gabriela Moreira about making formal methods accessible through the Quint specification language, how AI is dramatically lowering the barrier to entry for formal specification and model-based testing, and why defining correct system behaviour remains essential human work in an AI-driven world.

One of the most important performance metrics for a WordPress website is Server Response Time, commonly measured as Time to First Byte (TTFB). While caching plugins like WP Rocket significantly improve performance, many server configurations still route every request through PHP before serving the cached page. In reality, cached HTML files can be delivered directly by the web server (Apache or Nginx), completely bypassing PHP and WordPress. This approach reduces CPU usage, lowers the PHP-FPM workload, and improves overall server response time. This guide explains how to optimize both Apache (.htaccess) and Nginx so they can serve WP Rocket's static HTML cache directly. Why Is This Optimization Important? By default, a typical WordPress request follows this flow: Visitor │ ▼ Apache/Nginx │ ▼ PHP │ ▼ WordPress │ ▼ WP Rocket Cache │ ▼ HTML Response Even when a page has already been cached, the request still passes through PHP before the cached content is returned. With the following configuration, the request flow becomes: Visitor │ ▼ Apache/Nginx │ ▼ WP Rocket HTML Cache │ ▼ HTML Response PHP and WordPress are only executed when a cached file does not exist. Benefits Lower Time to First Byte (TTFB) Reduced CPU usage Less PHP-FPM processing Better performance during traffic spikes Ideal for VPS and dedicated servers Improved scalability with minimal configuration changes Apache (.htaccess) Optimization If your server runs Apache, insert the following block inside the WordPress rewrite section, immediately after: RewriteBase / and before: RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] The resulting configuration should look like this: # BEGIN WordPress # Die Anweisungen (Zeilen) zwischen „BEGIN WordPress“ und „END WordPress“ sind # dynamisch generiert und sollten nur über WordPress-Filter geändert werden. # Alle Änderungen an den Anweisungen zwischen diesen Markierungen werden überschrieben. < IfModule mod_rewrite.c > RewriteEngine On RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Autho

TL;DR Welcome back to Dev Opportunity Radar. This is a weekly series where I share opportunities,...

Artificial intelligence has transformed software development. Instead of simply generating code snippets, modern coding assistants can understand entire codebases, refactor applications, write tests, debug issues, and even execute development workflows. Among the most capable tools available today are Claude Code and Codex. While both are designed to accelerate software development, they take different approaches to coding assistance. This article compares their strengths, weaknesses, and ideal use cases. What Is Claude Code? Claude Code is Anthropic's command-line coding assistant built around the Claude family of language models. Rather than functioning as a traditional autocomplete tool, Claude Code works as an AI development agent that can inspect projects, edit files, explain code, write tests, fix bugs, and help developers navigate large repositories. Its workflow is centered around natural language. Developers describe what they want, and Claude Code performs the necessary steps while keeping the developer involved throughout the process. Key features Deep understanding of large codebases Multi-file editing Test generation Refactoring assistance Terminal-based workflow Strong reasoning for complex programming tasks Excellent documentation generation What Is Codex? Codex is OpenAI's AI coding agent designed to help developers write, understand, and modify software. Unlike the original Codex model introduced in 2021, today's Codex operates as a software engineering agent capable of working across repositories, generating code, fixing bugs, creating pull requests, running tests, and assisting with development workflows. Codex integrates closely with OpenAI's ecosystem and focuses on turning natural language instructions into production-ready code while maintaining awareness of project context. Key features Repository-aware coding Autonomous task execution Code generation Bug fixing Test writing Pull request assistance Integration with modern development workflow

Rosemary: Transparent Network Tunneling Over QUIC (Kernel-Level) Ever SSH into a box and wish you could just use its network without setting up proxy chains or VPNs? Rosemary makes that happen. The server intercepts traffic at the kernel level (no proxy settings, no TUN devices) and tunnels it over encrypted QUIC through a lightweight agent on the remote host. From your laptop, curl , ping , or your browser reach private subnets as if you were there. What you get Kernel-level packet interception, transparent to all your apps TCP, UDP, ICMP, and DNS just work without configuration Route all internet traffic through a chosen agent (egress) SOCKS5 proxies, port forwards, and reverse forwards per agent Multi-hop pivoting through several agents Web dashboard with real-time agent graph Full REST API for automation Works on Linux, Windows, macOS, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD Agents run without root; traffic is AES-256-GCM encrypted over QUIC Quick start # install (requires Go) go install github.com/blue0x1/rosemary/rosemary@latest go install github.com/blue0x1/rosemary/agent@latest # start server (needs sudo for kernel interception) sudo rosemary # deploy agent on remote box ./agent-linux-amd64 -s <server-ip>:2048 -k <your-key> That's it. Open http://server-ip:1024 and you'll see the agent's subnets automatically routed. Set a default egress agent to route all traffic through a jump host: egress agent-1 Now your laptop behaves like it's on the remote network. No proxychains, no ssh -D , no friction. Check the repo blue0x1/rosemary for pre-built binaries, PowerShell agents, and the full API. Use only on systems you own or have permission to test.

Disclosure up front: I'm Oded, co-founder of UniPaaS, the FCA-authorised Payment Institution (No. 929994) behind paas.build - so this is a vendor writing about his own product. That said, the three Base44 mechanics below are documented Base44 surfaces, and they work with any external payments API, not just ours. The wall Tell Base44 "add payments" and it installs Stripe or Base44 Payments (powered by Wix), plus Tranzila/Max for Israel. Both main options are solid if you qualify: Stripe is excellent infrastructure with first-class docs, and the Wix-powered option is native to the platform. The fine print is where builders hit a wall: Stripe live mode needs verified business and banking information before you can take a real payment. Base44 Payments requires "a business and bank account based in one of the supported countries" (their docs). The top payments request on Base44's own feedback board is "a way to setup other payment providers other than Stripe" - precisely because not every country is supported. Base44 webhooks only fire while someone is actively using your app, so 3am subscription renewals, retries and dunning silently don't run. If you have a registered company in a supported country and mostly sell one-off purchases, use the built-in Stripe path. It's the smoothest. The rest of this post is for everyone else. Base44 gives you three documented ways to wire in an external provider. I tested all three with paas.build. Here's each, and when it fits. Insertion point 1: custom MCP connection (build-time) In Base44: Settings → Account → MCP connections → Add custom MCP . Name: paas.build Server URL: https://paas.build/sse Auth: API key (your paas.build key) That's the legacy SSE endpoint Base44's form takes; streamable HTTP lives at https://paas.build/mcp for agents that support it. Base44's AI treats MCP connections as tools it can call when your request needs external data or actions. So in the editor chat you can say "use paas.build to create a live merchan

Disclosure before anything else: I'm Oded, co-founder of UniPaaS, the FCA-authorised Payment Institution (No. 929994) behind paas.build, and we compete with Paddle. The title above is the sentence builders keep arriving with - right here on dev.to , in Hacker News threads , and in our inbox. This is the map I give them, including the branches where Paddle is still the right call. Why good products get rejected Paddle is a Merchant of Record. The moment it approves you, it becomes the legal seller of everything you sell. So its underwriting answers exactly one question: "do we want to legally own this business's sales?" A brand-new solo builder with no history is the riskiest possible answer to that question, regardless of how good the product is. Builders who have been through it report the same four themes: No prior processing history. The chicken-and-egg: you need a payments track record to get approved, and you need approval to build a track record. An incomplete-looking site. Missing terms, no pricing page, no live domain, no visible product. Reviewers open your site. Identity mismatches. The applying entity, the domain owner and the bank account don't line up. Category restrictions. Paddle has tightened around some generative-AI products. Very little of this is documented, which is why the rejection email feels random. It isn't. It's a business model doing exactly what it was built to do. The decision tree Two questions decide your next move. 1. Is "global tax handled for me" your top requirement? If yes, stay in the MoR category. This is Paddle's genuine strength, and it's a real one: as Merchant of Record it remits VAT/GST across 100+ jurisdictions, and that liability sits with them, not you. No PayFac gives you that. Don't switch categories - fix the application and get back in the queue: Make the site look finished. Live domain, real pricing page, terms of service, privacy policy, a working demo. Explain the business plainly. What you sell, to whom, expecte

👋 Welcome to Chapter 9! Imagine a user typing in a search box. They type "i", "ip", "iph", "ipho", "iphon", "iphone" — 6 keystrokes in 2 seconds. Do you really want to make 6 API calls ? Of course not! You want to wait until they stop typing and then search once. That's what timing operators solve. They control when and how often values flow through your stream. ⏱️ debounceTime() — Wait for the Silence debounceTime(ms) waits until there's a pause of ms milliseconds, THEN lets the latest value through. Think of it like this: "Ignore everything until they stop for a moment." Like a person who waits for you to finish talking before responding. import { debounceTime } from ' rxjs/operators ' ; // User types fast: 'i' → 'ip' → 'iph' → 'ipho' → 'iphon' → 'iphone' // debounceTime(400) waits 400ms of silence, then sends 'iphone' only searchControl . valueChanges . pipe ( debounceTime ( 400 )) . subscribe ( term => { this . searchProducts ( term ); // Only called ONCE with 'iphone'! }); Timeline: Type 'i' → [400ms timer starts] Type 'ip' → [reset timer] Type 'iph' → [reset timer] Type 'iphone'→ [reset timer] ... 400ms silence ...

Most organisations approach a Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement implementation with one question at the top of their agenda: How long will this take? It is a reasonable question, and one that deserves a precise, well-considered answer rather than a vague estimate designed to win the deal. The reality is that Dynamics 365 CE implementation timelines vary significantly, shaped by factors that are unique to each organisation: business complexity, data readiness, customisation depth, integration requirements, and internal stakeholder availability. This guide provides a structured, phase-by-phase breakdown of what a Dynamics 365 CE implementation actually involves, realistic timeline benchmarks by business size and industry, and the critical factors that either accelerate or delay your go-live date. Why there is no one-size-fits-all timeline for Dynamics 365 CE implementation Why There Is No Single Answer to the Timeline Question Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement is not a standalone application. It is a modular platform encompassing Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, and Marketing, each carrying its own configuration requirements, data dependencies, and user adoption considerations. A professional services firm deploying D365 Sales for a 25-person team operates in an entirely different context than a multi-national enterprise rolling out Customer Service and Field Service across three regions. Treating these as comparable projects, with comparable timelines, is where expectations first go wrong. As a reference framework, Dynamics 365 CE implementations broadly fall into three tiers: Implementation Scope Basic deployment, minimal customization :- 6 – 12 weeks Mid-market with integrations and moderate configuration :- 3 – 6 months Enterprise, multi-module or multi-region rollout :- 6 – 16 months These are informed benchmarks, not guarantees. What determines where your project lands within or beyond these ranges is examined in detail below. Core phases of a Microsoft Dyn

TL;DR Retailers process thousands of inventory transactions every second across physical stores, eCommerce platforms, warehouses, suppliers, and fulfillment centers. Yet many inventory systems still rely on scheduled synchronization, causing stock levels to become outdated within minutes. The result is overselling, delayed replenishment, inaccurate inventory visibility, and avoidable stockouts. Apache Kafka enables real-time inventory management by treating every inventory movement as an event that is streamed the moment it occurs. Sales, returns, warehouse transfers, supplier deliveries, and IoT sensor updates are continuously processed to maintain a consistent inventory view across all retail systems. This event-driven approach helps retailers improve inventory accuracy, automate replenishment, detect stockouts before they occur, and respond to changing demand in near real time. In this guide, you'll learn how Apache Kafka powers real-time inventory management, explore a production-ready reference architecture, understand how inventory events are processed across retail systems, and discover implementation best practices for building scalable, resilient inventory streaming applications. Introduction Retail inventory management has evolved far beyond tracking products on warehouse shelves. Today's retailers operate across physical stores, eCommerce platforms, online marketplaces, distribution centers, and supplier networks, where inventory levels change continuously throughout the day. Every sale, return, warehouse transfer, supplier delivery, and inventory adjustment impacts product availability, making accurate inventory visibility essential for delivering a seamless customer experience. However, many retailers still rely on scheduled synchronization between Point-of-Sale (POS) systems, Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platforms, and online storefronts. While these systems perform different functions, they all depend on accur
