Yesterday, Oppo started teasing the global launch of the Reno16 series in partnership with the K-pop girl band BABYMONSTER. The phones were clearly supposed to be launching soon, but an actual announcement date was missing. Now, the company has rectified that, revealing that the Reno16 series will b
Originally published on lavkesh.com I've had my fair share of interviews, and I've learned that behavioral questions are more than just a formality. They're trying to figure out how you've handled things in the past, and whether you can actually do the work. If you prepare well, these questions are
One thing I've noticed while working with AI tools is that they struggle with many of the same things junior engineers struggle with. Not algorithms, and syntax, nor frameworks. They struggle with ambiguity. Give an AI vague requirements and you'll get vague results. Point it at a codebase with inco
Originally published on lavkesh.com I often find myself holding onto things that no longer serve me. It's like I'm stuck in a comfort trap, clinging to familiar habits, beliefs, and experiences out of fear or inertia. But the truth is, growth requires letting go. Humans are creatures of habit. We fi
The Quest Begins (The “Why”) Picture this: you’re sitting across from a recruiter, the whiteboard glows like the Death Star’s trench, and your brain feels stuck in a loop—the dreaded infinite while of silence. You’ve got the solution in your head, but the moment you start typing, the interviewer’s e
Originally published on lavkesh.com I've been watching robotics closely and I'm struck by the real progress being made, not the sci-fi stuff but practical machines that can actually get work done The combination of hardware and AI is what's driving this change, with better sensors, faster processors
Originally published on lavkesh.com Azure gets a lot of hype, and most of it is justified, but what actually matters is what you need to know to use it effectively. When I first started working with Azure, I was overwhelmed by the sheer number of services available. For example, App Service, Functio
If you're building out a home lab and need shared storage, you'll eventually hit the SAN vs NAS question. Both solve "storage that multiple machines can reach," but they do it differently — and the wrong choice will haunt your weekend troubleshooting sessions for years. This guide focuses on used/re
This is a submission for the June Solstice Game Jam I built a short browser based text adventure with wanderer-flow.de, the flow builder I created for interactive chat experiences. In the game, the solstice has stopped working and ancient writings declare that a chosen one must restore it. The playe
LLM judge cost is the share of your eval bill spent grading agent output instead of producing it. To control it, run a 40-line offline pre-gate that triages every span with four deterministic rules and escalates only the uncertain tail to the expensive judge. On one trace this cut judge cost share f
If you copy all day between browser tabs, Slack, and your IDE, you know the pain: copy → switch app → forget what you copied → hunt history. Pluck is my answer: a Windows clipboard manager where every copy becomes a visible bubble on the edge of your screen. What makes it different Visual clipboard
Originally published on lavkesh.com As a team leader, you can't avoid conflicts forever. They'll arise eventually, whether it's about a project, approach, or personalities. Ignoring them only makes things worse, causing people to take sides and the conflict to spread. The moment you notice tension,
Originally published on lavkesh.com I've seen many engineers learn to code by building small projects, but real systems don't work that way. Once you're managing data from millions of users, responding to traffic spikes, ensuring your databases don't lose data during hardware failures, and coordinat
The bill is meant to curb potential insider trading, blocking lawmakers and family members from policy-related prediction market bets.
The Gentlemen ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation is actively developing and maintaining a suite of endpoint detection and response (EDR) killers that it hands out to affiliates for impairing system defenses before deploying the encryptor. This mature portfolio of EDR-terminating tools is cente
Security researchers at Paradigm Shift have published a working exploit, dubbed usbliter8, that achieves arbitrary code execution inside the SecureROM of Apple's A12 and A13 chips. That code is burned into the silicon at manufacture. No software update can reach it. Affected devices will carry this
