I only had about 5 minutes to write this post, so I cheated and gave Gemini my git commit history, asked it to write the post. It was really dull. So I asked it to write it in the style of Hunter S. Thompson. This is what it came up with: Right, let's get down to the bone and gristle of it. The week began with a righteous and noble goal: to cage the beast, to get this Ollama AI monstrosity running in a container where it couldn't do too....

Beginning at 06:00 UTC on Tuesday, Jun 10, 2025, Heroku customers began experiencing a platform service disruption due to an unintended system update applied to our production infrastructure by our vendor. To compound the issue, the Heroku Status site was affected by the outage. Shortcomings in site design and API latency resulted in timeouts, and the Status site appeared as if there were no active incidents. On June 15th we published..

Sometimes we feel confusion going through the code. Confusion costs time and money. Confusion is caused by high cognitive load. It’s not some fancy abstract concept, but rather a fundamental human constraint. It’s not imagined, it’s there and we can feel it. Since we spend far more time reading and understanding code than writing it, we should constantly ask ourselves whether we are embedding excessive cognitive load into our code.

AI Agents are all the rage now. The mandate has come: “You must have AI integrated into your systems ASAP.”   What  AI doesn’t matter that much, as long as you have it, right? Today I want to talk about a pretty important aspect of applying AI and AI Agents in your systems, the security problem that is inherent to the issue. If you add an AI Agent into your system, you can bypass it using a “strongly worded letter to the editor”, basically....

If you’re using Svelte with coding assistants, you know that these assistants aren’t always aware of the latest features in Svelte 5 and SvelteKit. They’ll suggest outdated patterns, mix up the old reactive syntax with the new runes system, or simply hallucinate syntax that doesn’t exist. These problems have made LLM assistants less useful in Svelte and SvelteKit projects – so I decided to set out and build an MCP (Model Context Protocol) s..

The AI revolution presents a critical challenge: moving from experimentation to production. This year, Heroku has evolved beyond a traditional PaaS to become an AI PaaS, a fully managed platform designed to solve this problem and accelerate the delivery of AI-powered apps. With new capabilities like AppLink , Managed Inference and Agents , and MCP on Heroku , Heroku now provides a fully managed platform designed for the AI era. This ev..

Disclaimers This is an article about AI. If you’re tired of talking about AI please close this tab and don’t yell at me! I’m not an economist, or an AI expert, just a chart enthusiast and programmer. In this post, I focus on OpenAI’s progress to simplify the story. There are other labs working on related work, and the GPT series of models are far from the only important LLMs. OpenAI’s model performance is not the only sign of progress in AI....

minus PRC, obviously) With all the recent news about age verification, Chat Control, Section 230, etc, I realized I've never seen any stories about internet/tech privacy in East Asia. Is this just a failure of reporting, or has there been nothing to report? Have you read about it? Do you have personal experience?

ℹ️ This is a really small piece of “nothing”, but it might save you (and future me) some time! Recently I started playing around with scikit-image library which is really cool. I found that they had a decent resizing tool, but diving deeper it actually turned out to be really slow . I’d even go as far as to say that the anti-aliasing (AA) of scikit-image might be too agressive, but you can tune it luckily. In comparison PIL seems ....
