Sharing my learnings, building in public, and documenting the journey from student to developer.
Every time a Chinese lab ships an open-weight model at a fraction of western prices, the AI subsidy debate starts over. DeepSeek V4 at $3.48 per million output tokens is the latest case - and the case keeps pointing one direction.
Every few months a new model drops, feels about the same as the last one, and costs more. That pattern isn't marketing - it's structural. Here's what's actually changing between releases, and what to watch for instead.
The math has always favored a single VM for most apps. So why does every serious engineering org still reach for Kubernetes first? The honest answer isn't technical - it's about résumé incentives, vendor sales, and the conversations k8s forecloses.
A VS Code fork just got priced at sixty billion dollars. The product looks replaceable. The price isn't. Here's what's actually being bought when AI coding tools get valued like oil fields.
Apple's next CEO has a LinkedIn profile with one job, no posts, and a placeholder photo. The internet's verdict: normalize this. What that says about real work vs performance culture - and why the artifact test matters more than your post streak.
Sam Altman keeps predicting the first one-person billion-dollar company is right around the corner. The founders actually using AI agents to run companies tell a much smaller story - and the gap explains a lot about where AI hype meets reality.
Anthropic shipped Claude Design and Figma dropped 7.7%. The "Figma is dead" camp and the "this is hype" camp both missed what the market is actually pricing in.
Everyone on Twitter has an AI agent setup. Ask your actual circle and nobody uses one. I went through hundreds of developer discussions to find out who actually sticks with these tools - and what separates them from everyone who quietly stopped.
Two months ago I wrote about why developers pick Claude. Opus 4.7 shipped. The community is less in love. Here's what actually changed.
Anthropic's Project Glasswing uses an unreleased AI model that found a 27-year-old bug in OpenBSD, a 16-year-old bug in FFmpeg, and thousands more. Here's what developers are saying.
Benchmarks say one thing. Developers do another. Why Claude keeps winning at real coding work where process discipline beats raw intelligence.

How HTTPS actually works: certificate authorities, digital signatures, the TLS handshake, and why hackers can't fake certificates.
AI is making software nearly free to build. What happens to SaaS margins, small teams vs big companies, and the question nobody can answer.
Andrew Yang says AI will wipe out millions of white-collar jobs. As a 22-year-old developer in Nepal, here's my honest take - and what I'm actually doing about it.
A production-ready Django + React authentication starter with JWT, email verification, and password reset. Clone it, configure it, ship it.
OpenAI's Codex is Electron. I read 500+ HN comments about the native vs Electron debate. Here's what I learned about why tech giants choose Electron.
How DNS actually works: hierarchy, records (A, CNAME, MX, TXT), TTL caching, the full resolution process, and commands to debug DNS issues.
The complete guide to deploying DRF on a VPS with Docker, PostgreSQL, Nginx, and free SSL. Real production setup, not a tutorial shortcut.
I spent 2 weeks validating SaaS ideas without writing code. Zero traction. $25 spent. Here's what actually happened and what I learned about idea validation.
The French government is replacing Microsoft and Google with open-source Django apps. 16k+ stars on GitHub. Here's why this matters for Django developers.
