Google Just Split Its TPU Into Two Chips. Here's What That Actually Signals About the Agentic Era.

Training and inference have always had different physics. Google just decided to stop pretending one chip could handle both. At Google Cloud Next '26 on April 22, Google announced the eighth generation of its Tensor Processing Units — but for the first time in TPU history, that generation isn't a single chip. It's two: the TPU 8t for training, and the TPU 8i for inference and agentic workloads. T...

Más allá del dashboard: el truco para enamorar a tus clientes usando IA

Seamos sinceros: si tienes un proyecto o una idea de negocio que ya maneja clientes y una base de datos, tienes oro en las manos. La información lo es todo hoy en día. Pero te hago una pregunta muy honesta: ¿qué le estás entregando realmente a tus clientes con todos esos datos? Casi todos los desarrolladores hacemos lo mismo: recolectamos la información, armamos un dashboard bonito con un par d...

Confessions of a Dev #2:The Interview Answer That Haunts Me

You know that feeling — walking out of an interview, and by the time you hit the elevator, your brain already starts replaying that one question. The one where you said something… fine. Acceptable. Professional. But deep down, you know you had a killer answer in you. The honest one. The clever one. The one that would've made the interviewer lean in and say, "Tell me more." Instead, you played i...

Why I Print My Startup Dashboard Every Morning

Why I Print My Startup Dashboard Every Morning

I'm building BetterPrompt, and this is the reporting workflow I ended up needing every morning. My startup metrics live in two places. PostHog has traffic and top-of-funnel behavior. Postgres has signups, onboarding, prompt runs, subscriptions. The annoying part wasn't that the data was split — every startup has that problem. The annoying part was that the funnel I actually cared about only exist...

Fintech + AWS + RBI: the compliance myth

Every fintech founder in India asks me: "Do we need to move off AWS for RBI compliance?" Almost always: no. Almost always, you're conflating three different things. What RBI actually requires (SPDI Rules + Master Direction on Outsourcing + DPDPA): Data residency: specific categories of data (payment data, PII) must be stored in India. AWS Mumbai region (ap-south-1) satisfies this. Hyderabad ...

How to Delete Your Digital Footprint (Practical Guide)

If you’ve ever googled your name and felt that stomach drop, you’re not alone—and the fix starts with understanding how to delete digital footprint data in the real world (where copies, brokers, and caches never truly “forget”). This guide is opinionated on purpose: you don’t need 47 tools, you need a repeatable process that reduces exposure fast and keeps it low. 1) Map what exists (bef...

Tagging — the 20% that drives 80% of cost allocation

Tagging — the 20% that drives 80% of cost allocation

The most common FinOps mistake I see: over-engineered tagging strategy. A Series B SaaS team spent 3 months designing a 47-field tag taxonomy. Environment. Service. Owner. Business unit. Cost center. Data classification. Compliance zone. Criticality. Expiry. PII flag. Migration source. CI pipeline ID. Then they realized: they can't enforce it. Their Terraform had 80 modules. Half the resources...

Why I built yet another JSON formatter (and what I did differently)

I've been pasting JSON into random online tools for years. Formatter, type generator, diff — you name it, there's already 10 versions of it online. So why build another one? One day I was debugging a prod API response and copy-pasted the payload into the first JSON formatter that came up in Google. Then I looked at the network tab. It had sent my data to a server. Not a big deal in isolation, ...

DORA metrics are a CFO tool, not a dev tool

DORA metrics are a CFO tool, not a dev tool

Your engineering team tracks DORA metrics. Your CFO doesn't know what they are. That's the gap costing both of them trust and budget. DORA in engineering's head: → Deployment frequency (how often we ship) → Lead time for changes (commit to prod) → Change failure rate (% of deploys that break something) → MTTR (mean time to recover) DORA translated for the CFO: → Deployment frequency → how fas...

Why your scraper plateaus at 5-6 concurrent Chrome instances (and the shared-cookie trap nobody names)

Someone on r/webscraping this week hit the wall I've seen a dozen projects hit: "When I try to use multiple pages (tabs) within a single browser instance, Turnstile doesn't load properly on background or non-focused pages. Because of that, I'm forced to run one browser instance per page... I can do like 5 or 6 browsers simultaneously before throttling my CPU, avg about 30+ solves a minute." 5-...

NeoCognition Just Raised $40M to Fix the One Thing Every AI Agent Gets Wrong

Every AI agent demo looks impressive until you actually depend on one. That 50% task completion rate you've quietly accepted as "normal"? NeoCognition just called it out directly, and raised $40 million to do something about it.

Selenium keeps getting blocked by Cloudflare? Here's what the fingerprint actually catches (and how to stop triggering it)

A post on r/webscraping this week asked a question that keeps coming up: "I'm using Selenium through Chrome, need to scrape ~1M pages at ~1s/page, but every request hangs 7-8s on a Cloudflare challenge." At 7 seconds per page, 1M pages takes 81 days. That's not a rate limit problem. That's a detection problem — and you can't fix it with more threads. The replies to that post are a goldmine of ad...

DPDPA compliance is a cloud config problem

A compliance lead told me last week: "We're buying a ₹40L DPDPA compliance tool. We'll be ready by deadline." I asked: "Do you know which S3 buckets contain user PII?" She didn't. Neither did the CTO. Here's the reality: DPDPA isn't a compliance-tool problem. It's a cloud-config problem wearing a legal costume.
