Introduction I've been seeing more developers say that Codex has become easier to use, more cost-effective, or simply a better fit for some workflows than it used to be. This is not a "Claude Code is bad, everyone should switch" article. I still use Claude Code at work, and if cost were less of a factor in my personal setup, I would probably be using both more actively. If you're already comfort
Introduction Picture two doctors updating the same patient record at the same time - one in São Paulo, the other in London. Both are offline. When connectivity returns, whose changes prevail? This is not a hypothetical. It is the everyday reality of distributed systems: multiple nodes, no shared clock, no guaranteed network. The conventional answer has long been locking - one node waits while an
Introduction Some code works. Some code lasts. The difference rarely comes down to typing speed, syntax mastery, or how many nights you're willing to push through. It comes down to how you think about a problem before you write a single line. Big-O notation is a mathematical framework that describes how an algorithm performs as its input grows. In plain terms, it answers one question:
Hello everyone! I wanted to write this article to share my experience with agentic coding without Claude and Codex, I started dabbling with agentic coding a few months ago when Claude had decent limits on the 20$ plan, You prompt the agent: I want e2e tests, and it will study the codebase and implement them. When I've started hitting limits on Claude code, and this is not a secret that they reduc
If you use ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Copilot, or Gemini daily, it feels like you're talking to a person. It remembers what you said three messages ago. It references the project details you shared yesterday. It feels like the model has a persistent brain that is learning about you. But it’s a lie. From an architectural standpoint, an LLM is the most "forgetful" piece of software you will ever use. Ev
Most symbolic systems rely on multiple primitives. Addition, multiplication, exponentials, logarithms — each plays a different role in structuring expressions. But what happens if you force everything through a single operator? This idea becomes concrete with the EML operator: eml(x, y) = exp(x) − ln(y) In theory, this operator can express all elementary functions. But theory doesn’t tell us what
