A LinkedIn recruiter pitched me a remote "Software Engineer at a DEX" project this week. Reasonable comp range, tech stack squarely in my wheelhouse. After a couple of friendly exchanges, she asked me to "review the codebase before the technical interview" and sent me a GitHub repo link plus a Calendly invite for the call. The repo was malware. It didn't get me, but it's something developers shoul
Multi-tenancy is the economic engine of SaaS. Sharing infrastructure across customers reduces cost and simplifies operations. But it introduces a risk that can end your business overnight: tenant data leakage. When one customer can see another customer's data — even accidentally — the consequences are severe. Regulatory fines, contract termination, public disclosure requirements, and irreparable t
TL;DR: I built ChessDada — a free multiplayer chess platform inspired by old Yahoo Chess. No signup, no download, just instant browser-based chess. Built with Node.js, Socket.IO, and chess.js. Modern chess sites are bloated. Chess.com forces you through signup. Lichess defaults to account creation. The "5-second click and play" experience that made Yahoo Chess legendary in the 2000s is essentially
When you build a PowerShell project from multiple files, the natural structure is clear: enums first, then classes, then functions. Each group has its own place, and as long as dependencies only flow in one direction, that structure works perfectly. But sometimes a function depends on a class, and that class calls the function. There is no longer a clean boundary between the two groups — they need

Hey everyone, I shared this earlier as a CLI to analyse npm packages before installing. Since then, I’ve added something I think is even more useful: 👉 You can now scan GitHub repos before cloning or running them npx guard-install --repo https://github.com/user/repo There’s a growing pattern (especially in crypto interviews / side projects): “Clone this repo and run it locally” Some of these rep
The drift problem nobody told you about If you have used Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, or any other AI coding agent across more than two projects, you have felt this: You start project A. You copy the .agents/ folder (or CLAUDE.md, or .cursorrules) from your last project. You tweak two things. Done. You start project B six weeks later. You copy from project A. You tweak three things this time. Now
Cross-posted from the Stigmem blog. Today we're releasing stigmem v1.0: A stable, open-source specification and reference implementation for a federated knowledge fabric for AI agents. Stigmem = Stigmergy + Memory. Stigmergy (Greek stigma — mark; ergon — work) is the coordination mechanism you see in ant colonies and termite mounds: agents don't communicate directly with each other. Instead, they
