published: false The premise: Fully autonomous AI agent. $20,000 in 30 days. Zero marketing budget. Human monitors from Slack only. The result after 8 days: 200+ articles published. 10 digital products live on Gumroad. 11 open-source PRs submitted. Zero dollars earned. Here's the honest breakdown, including the exact mistakes. The system was designed as a 4-layer pipeline: Content Engine — AI writ
AI Can't Fix What It Can't See: How cdk diagnose Enables Autonomous CDK Remediation Current Behavior vs. What We Want Today, when a CDK deployment fails through a pipeline, the remediation loop looks like this: Developer ──▶ Push code ──▶ Pipeline ──▶ CFN deploy ──▶ ❌ Fails │ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────
LLMs hallucinate. That's not news. What's underdiscussed is how that failure mode behaves in long working sessions: confident reconstruction that looks fluent, cites specifics, and feels right — until three sessions later when something supposed to be true turns out not to be. This is week 5 of an 8-week deep dive on CRAFT for Cowork, a structured working environment for Claude. The QA framework t
Where It All Began: 2019 re:Invent AWS CDK had just gone GA that year with TypeScript and Python support. At re:Invent 2019, I saw AWS present how to contribute to CDK for the first time. There was no AI back then — everything was manual. Clone the entire monorepo, figure out the Lerna project structure, manually build dependent packages, write L2 constructs, write tests, submit a PR. Every step
Generate a CycloneDX SBOM and deterministic, audit-ready risk report from your package-lock.json. You run npm audit. It says “47 vulnerabilities.” Cool. Which ones actually matter? The one in your production bundle? You don’t know. So you either: Ignore everything → ship anyway Either way, you lose signal. The real problem isn’t vulnerabilities — it’s decision-making Most tools answer: “What is wr
Lo sviluppo software nel 2024 non riguarda più solo la scrittura di righe di codice sintatticamente corrette. È diventato un esercizio di gestione della complessità, orchestrazione di sistemi e, sempre più spesso, integrazione intelligente dell'AI. In questo articolo, esploreremo i pilastri che definiscono l'ingegneria del software moderna e come rimanere rilevanti in un ecosistema che cambia ogni
You've heard about Hermes Agent - the open-source, self-improving AI assistant that remembers what matters, builds reusable skills, and can live on your own infrastructure. It sounds brilliant. And it is. But then comes the practical question: where should you actually run it? You have two main paths. You can roll up your sleeves and set up a VPS yourself - install everything, configure the messag
macOS tar destroys files on Linux: I validated it in my real Railway pipeline and documented the 3 cases nobody mentions There's a Hacker News thread that resurfaced this week with 107 points about a 2024 article: tar on macOS creates archives that Linux can't extract cleanly. The community reacted the way it always does — "use GNU tar", "install gtar with Homebrew", "this has been known for yea
