Using Claude Code to modernize a 25-year-old kernel driver

A long-dead Linux kernel driver for QIC-80 tape drives just got dragged into the present—with help from **Claude Code** and a lot of tinkering. It now builds cleanly and runs as a **standalone module** on **Linux 6.8**, playing nice with modern setups like **Xubuntu 24.04**. **The bigger picture:**..

Building an AI Server on a Budget ($1.3K)

A developer rolled their own AI server for $1.3K—Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS, an Nvidia RTX GPU, and a sharp eye on Tensor cores, VRAM, and resale value. The rig handles small models locally and punts big jobs to the cloud when needed. Local-first, cloud-when-it-counts...

You Vibe It, You Run It?

Vibe Coding lets developers create software by chatting with AI, skipping traditional coding. But the non-determinism of AI prompts poses significant risks for reliability and maintainability, potentially leading to addiction-like dependence on this new tool. Think twice before fully embracing this ..

AgentHopper: An AI Virus

In the “Month of AI Bugs,” researchers poked deep and found prompt injection holes bad enough to run **arbitrary code** on major AI coding tools—**GitHub Copilot**, **Amazon Q**, and **AWS Kiro** all flinched. They didn’t stop at theory. They built **AgentHopper**, a proof-of-concept AI virus that ..

Building Agents for Small Language Models: A Deep Dive into Lightweight AI

Agent engineering with **small language models (SLMs)**—anywhere from 270M to 32B parameters—calls for a different playbook. Think tight prompts, offloaded logic, clean I/O, and systems that don’t fall apart when things go sideways. The newer stack—**GGUF** + **llama.cpp**—lets these agents run loc..

Guardians of the Agents 

A new static verification framework wants to make runtime safeguards look lazy. It slaps **mathematical safety proofs** onto LLM-generated workflows *before* they run—no more crossing fingers at execution time. The setup decouples **code from data**, then runs checks with tools like **CodeQL** and ..
