You're Not Building Netflix: Stop Coding Like You Are
You know what's hilarious? Fresh bootcamp grads write code that's too simple. Six months later, after discovering design patterns, they write code that requires a PhD to understand. The journey of a developer is basically: "Wait, I can use classes?" → "EVERYTHING MUST BE A FACTORY STRATEGY OBSERVER
The 3 GitHub Projects I Recommend to Every Prompt Writer
(If you want to think better, write better, and build better with AI) Most people treat prompting like typing random, unstructured, forgettable. Professionals treat prompting like engineering, systematic, documented, and versioned. GitHub isn’t just for code anymore. Here are three GitHub project st
No OAuth Required: An MCP Client For AWS IAM
When Anthropic published the Model Context Protocol (MCP), I immediately started experimenting with deployment options on AWS: First, I tried running MCP servers as AWS Lambda functions.

Vibe Coding a Power App the Pro way with Code Apps
In a world of new AI tools and rebranding its hard to keep track of everything Microsoft has launched, but there is one kind of cool one that never got as much attention as I think it should and with the influx of new it probably wont. We are all talking about App Builder, and Generative Pages in Mo
Raptor Mini: GitHub Copilot’s New Code-First AI Model That Developers Shouldn’t Ignore
AI-assisted development is evolving fast, but every once in a while, a new model shifts how we think about writing and maintaining code.

How I Built a Tiny Tool That Makes Responsive Design Feel Effortless
Setting the Stage Ever wondered why the features your favorite product promises often take longer than planned? Or why it sometimes feels like engineers deliver more promises than features? Considering how disappointing it feels, experiencing both sides of that letdown has taught me how crucial it
So… what is GitHub Copilot’s "Raptor mini"and why should devs care?
GitHub quietly slipped a new model into Copilot called “Raptor mini (Preview)”. The changelog basically said: “Raptor mini, a new experimental model, is now rolling out in GitHub Copilot to Pro, Pro+, and Free plans in Visual Studio Code… Rollout will be gradual.” …which does not tell us what it is,
TOON vs JSON: The New Format Designed for AI
How a novel data format is saving developers 30-60% on LLM token costs If you've been working with Large Language Models, you've probably noticed something: feeding data to AI isn't free. Every JSON object you pass through an API costs tokens, and those tokens add up fast. Enter TOON (Token-Oriented
TOON vs JSON: A Modern Data Format Showdown
Introduction The evolution of data formats tells a fascinating story about how technology adapts to meet our changing needs. From the humble .INI files that powered early configurations to the verbose but structured XML, the lightweight JSON, the human-friendly YAML, and now TOON a token-optimized
A Full-Stack Developer Is A Myth

Reinventing Kubernetes in 2025: a post-mortem of my “simple” stack
Every “simpler” DevOps tool is just Kubernetes wearing sunglasses. The dream of simplicity I remember the day I promised myself I’d never touch Kubernetes again. I’d seen things pods looping, nodes ghosting, Helm charts crying in YAML. So this time, I swore: “Just one container. That’s it.” That
How I Use AI to Build Frontend Apps: My Candid, Messy Process
I've noticed that some of the pushback against using AI to code stems from people not knowing how to use it. I know, I know you've heard the “skill issue” joke before, and it sounds annoying, but it's kind of true. I also see a spectrum of people who are trying to accept using AI, but they don't see

🚀 TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) — The Smarter, Lighter JSON for LLMs
When building AI and LLM-based applications, one of the biggest hidden costs often comes from something simple — the format of your data. Every {}, [], and " inside JSON counts as a token when you send it to a Large Language Model (LLM). With big payloads or complex structured data, this can burn t

🚀 Introducing Agentic Postgres: The First & Free Database Built for Agents
Agents are the New Developer 80% of Claude Code was written by AI. More than a quarter of all new code at Google was generated by AI one year ago. It’s safe to say that in the next 12 months, the majority of all new code will be written by AI. Agents don’t behave like humans. They behave in new wa
