The Modalities of Accessibility

There are nights when I have dreamt of a perfect world where, among other wishes, equitable access is a concern for everyone involved in developing a website.

Cost Visibility Is Not Cost Control

Cost Visibility Is Not Cost Control

Cost visibility tells you what your architecture costs. Cost control determines whether that architecture should have existed in the first place. These are not the same discipline. Most organizations treat them as if they are — and the FinOps data proves they have been doing so for years without fixing the underlying problem. The State of FinOps 2026 report found that 98% of organizations are n...

How do you tackle expanding scope and accelerated deadlines?

I just started at a new company in around March. They put me on a project where I'm the only back-end developer on the team. It's a typical microservice architecture except there are hundreds of microservices, not just a dozen like I have experience with, all managed by a group of maybe 20 people. The original deadline for this project was supposed to be the end of May. The scope has expanded sig...

Webinar: How to Automate Exposure Validation to Match the Speed of AI Attacks

In February 2026, researchers uncovered a shift that completely changed the game: threat actors are now using custom AI setups to automate attacks directly into the kill chain. We aren't just talking about AI writing better phishing emails anymore. We’re talking about autonomous agents mapping Active Directory and seizing Domain Admin credentials in minutes. The problem?

The hardest React problem in my side project wasn't the AI matching, it was making anonymous users feel like they belong somewhere

Been lurking here forever, finally have something worth sharing. I built On Your Mind (https://on-your-mind.pages.dev), an anonymous thought-sharing app that uses BGE-small embeddings and pgvector cosine similarity to match strangers thinking the same thing in real time. The technical side was honestly the fun part. The React challenge that actually kept me up was this: how do you build a UI that ...
