Today Spotify is launching a new feature called Reserved in the US. This basically means Spotify is holding two concert tickets for an artist's most dedicated fans, and will offer them the chance to grab said tickets before the general sale goes live. The company isn't saying exactly how it determin
A great price if you've been looking for a fitness tracker
Originally published on lavkesh.com I've watched it happen dozens of times and I've done it myself more than once. You pick a use case, connect it to a model, write a prompt, feed in some sample data, and it works. Not just works. It's impressive. You show it to stakeholders and the energy in the ro
Spring Security 7 dropped at Spring I/O 2026. Daniel Erno from the Spring Security team gave a talk covering the biggest changes. Here's what matters if you're building Java apps with Spring Boot. This feature was requested 12 years ago (issue #2603, opened November 2013). It finally shipped. What i
The problem with single-model AI assistants Most AI assistants give you one model's answer. If it's wrong, you catch it or you don't. If you use a cheap model, quality drops. If you use a frontier model, you pay frontier prices for everything — even a simple file rename. We wanted something better.
Tracing the LLM call is the easy 20 percent. For a voice agent, the failures live in the audio layer your tracer never sees. Most LLM observability tools trace the same thing: the prompt, the completion, the tokens, the latency of the model call. For a text agent that is most of the story. For a voi
A client asks you to rename a site from acme-staging to the production name acme. The moment you rename it in the app, the DB backups, screenshots, and thumbnails you had been collecting all appear to disappear. The files are still on disk, but the new directory is empty. The data hasn't carried ove
The subscription renewal email landed on a Tuesday. $20/month. Auto-renew in 3 days. I'd been paying it for a year without thinking — the way you pay for a gym membership you stopped using in March. Except I was using it. Every day. Dumping my business plans, my client notes, my half-formed product
Originally published at dylanworrall.com. Most agent demos that involve a browser are shot in one take for a reason. The moment you try to make browser automation reliable — running unattended, across sites you don't control, hundreds of times — it stops being a demo and starts being an engineering
Our chunking strategy that keeps chapters coherent, respects context windows, and handles multi-lingual books. At LectuLibre, we translate entire books — novels, technical manuals, poetry — using large language models. It sounds simple: feed each paragraph to an LLM, concatenate results, done. But t
The Quest Begins (The "Why") I still remember the first time I stared at a LeetCode problem that asked for the minimum number of moves a knight needs to reach a target square on a chessboard. My brain went into overdrive: “Do I try every possible path? That’s exponential! Do I brute‑force it with re
Choosing between Vultr vs Digitalocean: Which Is Better in 2026? You're not alone. If you’re trying to launch a VPS, host a production app, spin up a staging server, or migrate from shared hosting, these two cloud platforms are usually on the final shortlist. I’ve used both for real workloads: small
Everyone is talking about how AI is helping junior developers write code they couldn't write before. That's true. But there's a less-told story: what happens when a senior developer picks up these tools. The leverage is completely different — and I didn't fully understand that until I was six months
Most error messages are written for the wrong reader. They're written for the person who's watching when the thing breaks. You're at the terminal, the run fails, the message says connection refused or validation failed at step 3, and that's enough, because you have all the context in your head right
In the high-stakes world of tech entrepreneurship, the leap from a brilliant prototype to a scalable, market-defining business can be brutal. Founders need much more than capital; they need deep architectural guidance, sovereign-level policy alignment, and technical systems engineered to enable rapi
