ECS is underrated. Most teams picking EKS don’t need it. I’ve been saying this for years, and I’ll keep saying it until the industry stops treating Kubernetes as the default answer to every container question. I watched a team — smart engineers, solid product — choose EKS for what was essentially a three-service CRUD application behind an ALB. They’d read the blog posts, watched the conference talks, and decided Kubernetes was the future...

In my recent post about CI/CD performance , I mentioned that I’d built a shadow pipeline in Ansible to deploy to our on-prem dev environment. Since then, I have been campaigning to use those Ansible playbooks for our pre-Prod and Prod deployments too. I secured approvals to do a proof-of-concept deployment to pre-Prod using the Ansible playbooks but it failed dismally because our pre-Prod VMs have drastically different sudo restrictions ..

It’s the mid-90s, it’s Sunday morning, and you’re about to set your VCRs to record on your NFL game of choice You’d capture everything, commercials, dead time, halftime filler, and hope the tape didn’t cut out in overtime. It was static. One-size-fits-all. Then TiVo arrived. That pause button changed the game. Suddenly, fans could freeze a field goal, run to grab game day food, and unpause just in time for the kick. Control entered the li....

A few years ago, AS Roma destroyed Barcelona in a thrilling 3-0 in Champions League quarter finals. Around that time, I started hearing a whistling sound in my ear.

Back in 2023, I toyed with the relevant iOS dev tools needed to create a custom Tesco Clubcard pkpass , and even showed how to scan a QR code from our beloved Emacs (of course). Neither my friend Vaarnan nor I are strangers to the iOS ecosystem, yet we both agreed the above approach wasn't very practical (for neither devs nor the average iOS user). So we figured we should have a crack at it. While there are some ready-made solution..

Over the last two years, the vibecoding stack rotated on every axis: models, harnesses, work surfaces, and orchestration. This post defines each layer and makes the case for a boring strategy: SWE fundamentals. If you can spec, diff, test, and debug, you can swap tools without rewriting your brain.

Background and bytecode design The ZJIT compiler compiles Ruby bytecode (YARV) to machine code. It starts by transforming the stack machine bytecode into a high-level graph-based intermediate representation called HIR. We use a more or less typical 1 control-flow graph (CFG) in HIR. We have a compilation unit, Function, which has multiple basic blocks, Block. Each block contains multiple instructions, Insn. HIR is always in SSA form, ....
