A solo dev just spun up a public build of aRedis-style key-value store in Java—lean, thread-safe, and backed by a custom TCP server. Right now it handlesGET,SET, andDELETEover a socket-level protocol. No HTTP. No bloat. At its core: aConcurrentHashMapdoing the heavy lifting. Fast, in-memory, and de..

A CS student taught themselvesSwiftusingNotebookLM, Google’s AI that sticks to sources you feed it. They pulled in handpicked docs, YouTube transcripts, and visual mind maps—all dropped into a custom notebook. No generic guesses. No hallucinated trivia. Just clean, source-grounded answers on syntax ..

Generative AI databases like SingleStore now cramOLTP,OLAP,vector search, andfull-text searchinto one SQL-first platform. Structured, unstructured—it eats both. No ETL. No silos. Just real-time data, ripe for AI models and semantic queries. System shift:Blending transactional and analytic guts in o..

Proton just droppedProton Authenticator, a free 2FA app that actually respects your privacy. It’s cross-platform, offline-friendly, and skips the usual junk—no ads, no trackers, no bait-and-lock-in. It’s gotend-to-end encryption, a biometric lock, and lets youexport TOTP seedslike it’s your data (b..

PostgreSQL index corruption silently broke the matrix.org homeserver. State groups were corrupted, active data was deleted, and restoring consistency took a week of forensic debugging and reindexing. The root cause? Unclear. Hardware, maybe. But not Postgres or Synapse. The team’s fix involved disab..

Need to check active connections, monitor listening ports, or debug network issues? The Linux netstat command remains a go-to tool for quick and effective diagnostics. We’ve created a clear, quick-reference cheatsheet with: 🔍 Essential command flags 📊 Real-world use cases ⚙️ Integration tips for REL..

Apache Iceberg +SparkSQLbringsACID transactions,schema evolution, andtime travelto data lakes. That means ML pipelines finally get reproducibility and consistency without the hacks. Iceberg’s snapshot-based guts track every version, handle parallel writes without stepping on toes, and keep training ..

AWS just droppedAgentCore Code Interpreter—a managed box where AI agents can run Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript in isolation. Think of it as a secure playground with autoscaling, controlled file access, and deep hooks into frameworks likeLangChain,LangGraph,Strands, andCrewAI. Big picture: This..

AWS Bedrock AgentCore just got a new trick: agents (and anyone IAM-blessed) can now runCode Interpreters. Think arbitrary code execution—with custom or predefined IAM roles. But here’s the kicker: these interpreters skipresource policies, lean on control plane APIs, and don’t log squat—unlessyou fl..

A new framework lays out six sharp steps for building agents that actually ship. It kicks off with a grounded task, locks in SOPs, then tunes high-leverage prompts. The real choke point? LLM reasoning. Everything else—architecture, data flow, testing—is scoped to chase tight, measurable gains there...
