Month: March 2026

Two years ago I wrote an article on HackerNoon about building a niche job board in Go. At the time the site was only a few months old and I had just crossed about 5,000 monthly visitors. I was still figuring out what worked and what didn’t. Two years later the project is still running … Read more

LLMs are becoming a discovery layer. Users ask a question, the model synthesizes an answer, and then it may cite a few sources. That shifts the goal from “rank and win a click” to “be the most useful, extractable, verifiable source in the retrieval set.” For TalentHacked.com (UK Global Talent Visa platform), this is a … Read more

I built 97 blocks of YAML, 8 AI specialists, and 18 phases of deliberation to answer a question every five-year-old knows: what is 2 + 2? It took the system about four minutes to reach a unanimous verdict: 4. Along the way, a mathematician invoked Peano axioms, a philosopher questioned whether numbers exist, a poet … Read more

I have been running MCP servers in production for over a year. Eight plugins. Thirty-four tools. Thousands of AI agent sessions per week at systemprompt.io. And I can tell you with absolute certainty that the hardest problems in MCP development have nothing to do with the code you see in tutorials. The tutorials show you how … Read more

We’re deploying autonomous systems that can read files, call APIs, send messages, and execute code — and we can’t answer the most basic question: who is this agent? In September 2025, the Cloud Security Alliance surveyed 285 IT and security professionals about how their organizations manage AI agents. One finding stood out: only 21.9% treat … Read more

Web accessibility is often treated as a final step in the development cycle. In many teams, accessibility appears as a checklist just before release, where developers run automated scans, add missing alt attributes, insert ARIA labels, and attempt to resolve warnings identified by accessibility tools. This reactive approach creates what can be described as accessibility … Read more

A 2025 MIT report shows that, even after massive enterprise spending of billions of dollars on GenAI pilots, 95% of organizations are seeing no business returns. AI-related incidents and failures are one of the main things breaking consumer trust and hindering wider adoption of AI. Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence released the 2025 AI … Read more

In the digital economy, trust is rarely earned through words alone. Users form judgments almost instantly based on interface behavior, often before reading mission statements or product descriptions. Research demonstrates that people form credibility impressions using visible site cues (including design and ease-of-use cues), often before engaging deeply with content (Fogg, 2003 1 ). This … Read more

Miami, USA, March 16, 2026 — Goldfish, a platform focused on bringing gold-backed assets on-chain, is preparing for the launch of its governance token GFIN, alongside an ecosystem airdrop tied to participation across its protocol. The initiative is being built around GGBR, the project’s gold-reserve-backed stablecoin, which is expanding across decentralized finance through early integrations … Read more

If you’ve ever watched a seemingly simple dashboard grind your database to a halt, you already understand why materialized views exist. In one of the payment systems I worked on, we had exactly this problem. Product wanted rich analytics for transactions: totals per day, per user, per currency, per status, filtered by date ranges and … Read more
