Twenty years ago I briefly became the victim of a viral pile-on – all because of a silly YouTube video. But I’m glad I had the chance to embarrass myself and move on. Are today’s teens so fortunate?

How I Got --wait and --repeat Added to nvme-cli By Yonas Abeselom — June 20, 2026 Two weeks ago I published a GitHub repository from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Today, the core idea behind it was merged into linux-nvme/nvme-cli master — the standard NVMe command-line tool that ships with virtually every
₹40,000 to ₹70,000 — that's the extra monthly capacity my consulting practice has picked up since switching my primary dev loop to Claude Code six months ago. Forty production automations shipped in that window: bank reconciliation pipelines, stock screeners, ITR-prep bots, expense categorizers, GST
If you freelance or run a small business in India, you have probably paid for invoicing software that does one thing: multiply numbers and put them in a PDF. Today we will build that ourselves — a GST-compliant tax invoice generator that reads line items from a CSV and produces a clean PDF, in 87 li
If you run a small business in India, you know the monthly ritual: a folder full of vendor invoice PDFs, and a spreadsheet that needs GSTIN, invoice number, date, taxable value, and GST amounts pulled out of every single one. Doing it by hand takes hours. Let's automate it in about 70 lines of Pytho
When people talk about LLM failures, the default word is usually "hallucination." But after building and testing LLM apps, I think many production bugs are better described as contract failures. A hallucination is when the model makes something up. That matters, but it is not the only failure mode.
Most advice about "building an audience before you launch" is vague. "Upvote this Monday, link coming, takes 10 seconds" is specific. The lesson: relationships built through genuine engagement convert into real support when you ask directly and make it easy. Launch is Monday. We'll see what 4 months
A model fallback that only works in a diagram is not resilience. It is a TODO with better branding. If your product depends on AI agents, one slow provider, rate-limit spike, regional restriction, malformed response, or model behavior change can turn a useful workflow into a confusing user experienc
Python for Beginners — Part 3: Strings & Booleans Part 3 of a beginner-friendly series on learning Python from scratch.

How to build AI agents as a frontend developer is the enable that sits quietly underneath every "AI-powered" UI you’ve seen this year. Knowing how to write quality prompts is just the start — but if you grasp how prompts fit into the bigger picture of chatbots and agents, you’ll find yourself buildi
The Double-Billing Nightmare When integrating with enterprise payment processors like Stripe or enterprise CRMs at Smart Tech Devs, relying on webhooks is mandatory. However, distributed systems are inherently chaotic. If Stripe sends your API a charge.succeeded webhook, it expects a 200 OK HTTP res
The latest WhatsApp beta available on TestFlight brings back message animations on iOS, this time with a setting that lets users turn them off. Here are the details.
"Option A has the lower sticker price, but option B gives more points back — so which is actually cheaper?" You want to answer that in code. The naive version is one line: const effectivePrice = displayPrice - totalPoints; // this inflates the number But subtract every point and you're in trouble. E
