I recently shipped JSON Viewer Pro: https://jsonviewerpro.com/ It’s a lightweight web tool to help with everyday JSON tasks: Format / pretty-print JSON Validate JSON (catch syntax errors) Minify JSON View JSON (read large nested objects easier) The key goal was speed + privacy: JSON is processed in the browser so you don’t have to upload sensitive API responses to a server. I frequently debug API
Overview I finished the DR Toolkit thinking I had covered the important parts of disaster recovery: runbooks, RTO/RPO targets, post-mortems. Then I mapped out the actual incident lifecycle and realized everything I built sits at the edges. The middle part (detecting the incident, correlating signals across regions, finding the root cause while the primary region is actively failing) was not cove
The query optimizer in GBase 8a, the China‑domestically developed MPP database from GBASE, relies heavily on statistics to choose efficient execution plans. Those statistics live in two system tables: gclusterdb.gc_stats_table for table‑level row counts, and gclusterdb.gc_stats_column for column‑level distributions. Let's break down what they store, how the numbers are calculated, and which parame
Accessibility is not an afterthought — it's a quality signal. For Flutter Web, getting WCAG 2.2 compliance right requires understanding how Flutter's Semantics tree maps to browser accessibility APIs. This guide walks through practical implementation: contrast ratios, keyboard navigation, screen reader support, and automated testing. Flutter Web uses a hybrid rendering approach (CanvasKit or HTML)
All frameworks are eventually replaced. React is probably the first that won’t be. It's not the best language out there, it's not the language developers love the most, it's the language the robots just won't quit. Request ChatGPT to develop a todo app for you. You'll receive React. Request Copilot to generate the basic structure of a component. React. Request Claude to design a prototype for a da
The Hidden UX Problem in Voice AI: When Should the AI Stop Talking? One of the hardest parts of building a voice AI product is not making the AI talk. It is knowing when the AI should stop talking. I did not fully appreciate this at the beginning. When I started building RingBooker, an AI receptionist for salons, spas, med spas, beauty clinics, I was focused on the obvious problems: Latency. Sp
I have been meaning to upgrade my personal site to Astro 6 for a while. The release notes sat in my open tabs for weeks, and every time I sat down to do it, I found an excuse to work on something else. This week, I finally ran out of excuses. I carved out an afternoon, ran npx @astrojs/upgrade, crossed my fingers, and expected a smooth ride. The dev server crashed immediately with a cryptic error
What if I told you that the best way to defend your server isn't to block attackers, but to make them wait? Instant drops (TCP RST) are too kind. They let the botmaster know they need to rotate IPs or try a new tactic. Meet "LAG", my bio-sync active terminal defender (and, ironically, my username). In this post, we're not just deploying a firewall; we're deploying a marshland. We're turning my Wor
