Google’s bench is deep, but some names carry weight no org chart can replace. Jeff Dean is one of them — and as of this week, he’s off the roster. On August 5, 2026, Dean announced he’s stepping down as Google’s chief scientist to co-found Discovery Loop, a new public-benefit AI company aimed at automating … Read more

My terminal tabs used to become a task-management system by accident. One tab contained a Codex session fixing a UI problem. Another was analyzing an API. A third was waiting for permission to run a command. When I remembered an extra requirement, I first had to find the right terminal, read enough history to confirm … Read more

Here’s the Compose Multiplatform architecture behind its first prototype. This week, things got highly visual. I spent my time figuring out how to build the core interface … Read more

In July 2026, Moonshot AI dropped something remarkable: Kimi K3, a 2.8 trillion-parameter artificial intelligence model released with full open weights. This wasn’t just another AI update. It was a statement. While OpenAI and Anthropic guard their most powerful models behind closed doors, charging premium prices, Moonshot said “here, take it all—even the recipe.” But … Read more

My last post covered how to self-host AI models on a Raspberry Pi 5. This one is about what happens when you try to build actual software with a 3B parameter model running on that Pi. Not a demo. Not a proof of concept. Real software that ships, serves requests, and earns money. This is … Read more

I work as a system analyst, and when people ask what I love most about my job, I don’t even need to think about it: building diagrams, obviously. For me, it’s far more than just a work tool. It’s more like a genuine professional hobby — bringing order to flows and scenarios, hunting for the … Read more

Intro With asset tokenization platforms, many fintech optimists predicted that ordinary retail investors would finally have a seat at the table previously reserved for venture capital funds and accredited insiders. Tokenized shares issued before IPOs reflect the value of private companies like SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic, among others. They were positioned as a bridge between … Read more

Decentralised finance currently holds about $76 billion spread across more than 8,000 protocols on more than 500 chains. The average protocol therefore holds around $9.5 million, which is not enough liquidity to price a serious trade, absorb a serious liquidation or survive a serious attack. On Wednesday, Everything Protocol published a whitepaper arguing that the … Read more

The three-shot pattern real stunt coverage runs on, adapted for a pipeline where every clip is generated blind. Three weeks ago I finally got a duel scene in my AI-generated series past an AI video generator’s safety filter. Runway had flagged the first cut as graphic violence, a stylized blade fight with no blood or … Read more

Three months into cutting a corridor sequence for Lost Garden, I dropped a wide shot next to a close-up I’d already approved—same room, same torch, same night, at least on paper. On the timeline, they looked like two different locations. The close-up ran warm and a little hazy. The wide shot was cooler, cleaner, almost … Read more

Advertising still speaks the language of manufacturing. Campaigns are launched. Creative is produced. Audiences are bought. Results are reviewed after the campaign has run its course. That vocabulary assumes an ad is a finished object. Generative AI breaks that assumption. An ad no longer has to be a fixed combination of image, copy, audience, placement, … Read more

I built a natural-language product search engine over a marketplace catalogue in twelve languages. The interesting failures were not in the model’s language understanding — that part mostly worked. They were in the seams: a price filter that had never once filtered, an LLM confidently inventing valid-looking category IDs, a substring match that turned “newborn” … Read more

Images are essential to modern websites. They make product pages more persuasive, break up long articles, explain complicated ideas, and give brands a recognizable visual identity. The problem is that images are also capable of adding a substantial amount of data to a page. When they are prepared or delivered incorrectly, visitors can end up … Read more

For the past couple of weeks I’ve been playing through Hacker Holidays 2026 – “The Byte Lotus,” TryHackMe’s resort-themed CTF: 14 rooms unlocking one a day (Jul 27 – Aug 9, 16:00 UTC), all wrapped around a luxury-hotel story starring VERA, the resort’s a little-too-helpful AI concierge. What I liked about this event is how much ground … Read more

The science, the systems, and the very expensive question of who gets to keep living Every human being who has ever lived has been party to a contract none of us signed. The terms are simple. You grow. You peak. You decline. You die. There is no appeal, no premium tier, no clause your lawyers … Read more

I ended the last article (Linked: Part 2) on a single root cause, structured, quantitative data forced through a pipe built for unstructured language, producing the linearization defect during extraction and the tokenization disconnect during embedding. The natural conclusion is that you need a better extractor. That conclusion is half right, and the missing half … Read more

You spent three hours debugging a broken ETL script, your data is sitting in five different places in five different formats, and the stakeholder meeting is tomorrow morning. If you’ve ever stared at a pile of raw CSVs, API responses, and database dumps wondering how to wire it all into something that actually works reliably, … Read more

I had a page from Lost Garden, my AI anime series, that read fine on paper. One line said the heroine was torn between trusting the stranger and running. Any script reader would get that instantly. A generation model turned it into a woman standing still, doing nothing, wearing an expression that could mean anything … Read more

Denial of service is the least fashionable category in security because nothing is stolen and nothing is forged and the report at the end of it reads like a capacity planning memo rather than a crime scene. On most infrastructure that reputation is deserved, since a process that exhausts its heap will trip a pager … Read more

AI code review is a dedicated verification discipline — not a feature of your generation tool. Understanding what it analyzes, where it fits in your SDLC, and how to evaluate tools on rigorous benchmarks is what separates teams that ship confidently from teams that ship fast and fix later. Key Takeaway AI code review is … Read more
