Should I be making my own decisions as a senior SWE?

I have a tendency to flow everything back up to a lead and make them choose the direction. I can have an opinion, but I don’t really feel strongly about them unless it’s something factual that the lead is. I just do whatever the lead says to do. Is that bad? Or should I just be making my own decisions and then informing the lead? The main issue on why I always ask for their decision rather than st...

How 3 friends created and published a video game in less than a year without writing a single line of code ?

About a year ago, two friends and I casually discussed the idea of creating a video game. We did not know what we wanted to do nor how to do it. Where do we start ? So to begin with, we started to review all the video games genres we liked, to see if we had any in common. From that, we quickly studied the current business situation of the party games as that was what we opted for. It s...

From Vibe-Coding to Reality: Building MarvinSync

If you saw my posts back in February on LinkedIn and Mastodon, you know I’ve been deep in a Cursor session. I promised to pull back the curtain on how MarvinSync—my new macOS utility for syncing local music to Android—came to life through the lens of AI-assisted development. Before we get to the binaries (which are coming soon, I promise!), I want to share the vibe-coding post-mortem of how the f...

How I Stopped UI State Drift with a DOM Boundary Approach

One of the most frustrating UI failures is not a dramatic JavaScript bug. It is when CSS stops feeling explainable. You change one screen and another screen shifts. The same HTML looks different depending on where it appears. After a while, it becomes difficult to tell which style is actually responsible for what you are seeing. The Real Problem Was Separation At first, this looks like...

Building a multi-source autonomous research agent with LangGraph, ThreadPoolExecutor and Ollama

I wanted a tool that could research any topic deeply — not just one web search, but Wikipedia, arXiv, Semantic Scholar, GitHub, Hacker News, Stack Overflow, Reddit, YouTube and local documents, all at once. So I built it. This post covers the architecture decisions, the parallel execution model, the self-correction loop, and a few things that didn't work before I got it right. Live demo: https:/...

I had a bunch of Skills sitting in a folder. None of them were callable as APIs

So I built a runtime to fix that. The problem If you use Claude Code, Copilot, or Codex, you've probably created Agent Skills, those SKILL.md files that tell the AI what to do. I had a bunch of them. But they were stuck. I couldn't plug them into a product, trigger them from a webhook, or let any service call them with a POST request. Each skill was trapped inside the tool that creat...

Why Markdoc for LLM Streaming UI

Every AI chatbot I've built hits the same wall. The LLM writes beautiful markdown — headings, bold, lists, code blocks. Then someone asks for a chart. Or a form. Or a data table with sortable columns. Suddenly you need a component rendering layer. And every approach has tradeoffs. That's why I built mdocUI: a streaming-first generative UI library that lets LLMs mix markdown and interactive comp...

How I Passed the DP-300 Exam by Improving My Preparation Approach

Back in the days when I was a database admin specializing in Azure, I had slight feelings of confidence; I had worked with SQL Server and Azure, and would easily perform tasks on databases in production environments, but I didn’t have that same confidence with a Microsoft certification, as Microsoft uses the test to measure your ability to think like a real DBAs in real-world scenarios, rather tha...
