How to Keep Your Codebase From Rotting When AI Writes Most of It

Snap just announced that AI agents generate over 65% of their new code. The same week, they laid off roughly 1,000 employees — 16% of their workforce. CEO Evan Spiegel shared the AI stat on April 15, 2026, and the stock actually went up about 7-8%. Whatever you think about the human side of that story (and there's a lot to think about), it surfaces a very real engineering problem I've been wrestl...

How Self-Hosting n8n Can Slash Your Automation Costs by 90%

Why SaaS Automation Tools Break Down at Scale If you’ve worked with Zapier, Make, or similar automation tools, you probably noticed their costs quickly balloon as your workflows become more complex and frequent. These platforms typically charge per task or operation, and even a moderately busy workflow can easily cost hundreds of dollars monthly. What Sets n8n Apart n8n is a...

AI Reviews Your Code. But Who Reviews the AI?

We are starting to trust AI with one of the most important parts of software development: code review. At first, this feels like a natural step. AI writes code, so it can also review it. It is faster, it removes bottlenecks, and it feels consistent. But there is a deeper change happening. Code review is not only about finding bugs. It is also about understanding intent, checking assumptions, an...

We Hit 2,500 in 15 Days — And I Want to Make Every Dev Lazier (Productively)

I set a goal at the start of April: reach 2,500 followers on dev.to by April 30th. We hit 2,631 by April 15th. Half the month. So before I sprint to the next goal, I want to stop, look back, and say a real thank you — not the generic "thanks for the support 🙏" kind. The honest kind. What you actually did You read the articles. You left comments that pushed me to think harder. You ...

The Rise of Cognitive Property: Who Owns Your Thinking?

AI tools are capturing and replicating human reasoning patterns through governance docs and workflows, creating “cognitive property” that blurs ownership between individuals and employers.

Revisiting Message Brokers for AI Inference

Over the past decade, message brokers have quietly powered some of the most scalable systems we’ve built—handling events, decoupling services, and enabling distributed architectures. But with the rapid rise of AI inference systems, especially around LLMs and real-time ML, their role is being redefined. This isn’t just another “tech trend.” It’s a structural shift in how backend systems are design...

What project types best prepare students for real-world software engineering?

I am leading a university coding lab where students work in teams on 3-month projects. The goal is to help them become job-ready junior developers by working on problems that reflect real-world engineering challenges. I would like to avoid typical beginner projects and instead focus on systems that teach practical skills. My question is: based on real industry experience, what types of projects or...

I Built a Red Team of AI Agents to Attack My Code. Here is the Full Technical Report

In Part 1, I explained why I built Zenzic — the philosophy, the threat model, and the architecture of a Pure Python documentation analyzer. In Part 2, I detailed the transition to the Obsidian Bastion architecture: engine-agnostic discovery, the Layered Exclusion Manager, and zero-subprocess enforcement. Today, in the final chapter of this series, I'm sharing the results of Operation Obsidian ...

Newly Discovered PowMix Botnet Hits Czech Workers Using Randomized C2 Traffic

Cybersecurity researchers have warned of an active malicious campaign that's targeting the workforce in the Czech Republic with a previously undocumented botnet dubbed PowMix since at least December 2025. "PowMix employs randomized command-and-control (C2) beaconing intervals, rather than persistent connection to the C2 server, to evade the network signature detections," Cisco Talos

Claude Opus 4.7: What Actually Changed for Agentic Coding

Anthropic shipped Opus 4.7 on April 16, 2026. Same $5/$25 pricing as 4.6. Same 1M context. Same 128K output ceiling. Different model entirely when you put it in an agentic coding loop. If you run Claude Code or build agent pipelines on the Claude API, this post is the migration brief I wish someone had handed me on release day.

Designing for Everyone: Why Accessibility Is Not Optional in Modern Software

Most software is still built for ideal users in ideal conditions, which don’t exist. Accessibility is not a feature or a checklist, it’s a design decision that impacts real-world usability. When treated from the start, it improves clarity, flexibility and reach, resulting in better products for everyone, not just a specific group.

I Built a Library of 7,559 Landing Page Designs — Here's What I Learned About Curation vs Volume

Every client project starts the same way. You open Dribbble. You type "SaaS landing page." You scroll. And scroll. And scroll. Three hours later you have 47 tabs open, zero direction, and a client who needs mockups by tomorrow. I got sick of it, so I started saving pages locally. Nine months later I have 7,559 indexed landing pages, a taxonomy I never planned to build, and a side project that acc...
