152 postsHow to Build Incident AI That Engineers Actually Trust
An incident-detection AI lost engineer trust by reasoning before context. Adding deploy tracking and a context graph raised hypothesis accuracy from 35% to 70%.
Multi-Agent Architecture Patterns for Real-World Financial Systems
Engineering patterns for safely deploying LLM agents in African microfinance systems: bounded authority gates, bias audits, and shared-state coordination across agent pipelines.
From a 48-hour PDF rabbit hole to a repeatable research pipeline
An engineer's 48-hour struggle extracting data from academic PDFs led to an automated, auditable research pipeline with measurable gains in speed and reliability.
CommitBrief — AI code reviews, right in your terminal
A provider-agnostic, local-first CLI that reviews your staged changes, a historic range, or a whole GitHub pull request. Zero telemetry, no server. Free and open source.
commitbrief.comMeteor 3.5 Released: Change Streams and Performance Gains
Meteor 3.5 makes MongoDB Change Streams the default reactivity engine, delivering 40% more scalability, a pluggable DDP transport layer, and DDP session resumption.
Cruxible: An Open-Source Governed Truth Layer for AI Agents
Cruxible replaces unreliable text-based memory for AI agents with a deterministic, auditable state layer. Open-source, Apache-2.0 licensed, built with Python and SQLite.
Why Your LLM-as-Judge Gate Flips Between Runs
Same code, same input, different LLM judge score: why CI gates flap between runs, and how temperature, model pinning, k-sampling and quantization fix it.
TaxCalcBench: Open Source Test for AI Tax Filing
TaxCalcBench is an open source benchmark testing whether LLMs can accurately file real tax returns; even the best model only reaches 54% full accuracy.
Oracle Patching Demystified: CPU, RU, RUR and 2026's New CSPU
Oracle's patching vocabulary shifted from CPU/PSU to RU/RUR/MRP, and in 2026 added monthly CSPUs. A clear guide to what to apply, what's deprecated, and how version numbers encode patch levels.
Stream Compaction on NEON: Hand-Vectorizing copy_if
NEON lacks a compress instruction, so compilers can't vectorize copy_if. This piece shows how tbl-based lookup tables restore SIMD throughput with a 30x speedup.
Mounting Mac SMB Shares from Linux Without Weakening Security
A deep dive into mounting a Mac's SMB share from Linux via Kerberos and LKDC instead of the common fix that weakens macOS password storage.
