The Autonomous Paradox In 2026, we’ve moved past simple chatbots. We are building Production-Grade RAG pipelines and autonomous agents that can plan, execute, and iterate. But as an architect, I’ve noticed a glaring hole in our "Agentic" future: Identity Sprawl. We are giving agents non-human identities (NHI) with "Full Admin" permissions just to ensure the RAG works smoothly. We are effectively

Why This Topic Matters OTP (One-Time Password) verification is a critical security feature in modern mobile applications. Whether you're building a fintech app, healthcare platform, or any service requiring user authentication, implementing OTP verification efficiently can be the difference between a smooth user experience and frustrated users abandoning your app. The react-native-otp-auto-verif
Introduction Building a mobile application that handles sensitive financial data — crypto transactions, KYC verification, gift cards — means security is not an afterthought. It is a core deliverable. During the development of a cross-platform fintech application, one of the non-negotiables on the security checklist was runtime application self-protection (RASP). After evaluating our options, we
What if your Kubernetes cluster simply refused to run unsigned images? I spent some time experimenting with enforcing image provenance in a small Kubernetes setup using MicroK8s. The idea was simple: Only container images with valid cryptographic signatures are allowed to run in the cluster. For this I used: GitLab CI/CD (build + signing pipeline) Cosign / Sigstore (image signing) Kyverno (admissi
React Native's New Architecture — JSI, Fabric, and TurboModules — has been "coming soon" for long enough that some teams wrote it off as vaporware. It shipped. It is now default in new React Native projects. And it meaningfully changes how the framework works at the performance-critical boundaries between JavaScript and native code. This post is not a getting-started guide. It is an honest account
It's a one-line item on the roadmap. "Send a push notification when X happens." Estimate is two days, three if the backend doesn't have FCM credentials yet. There's a library for it. The library is the visible part. The other 90% is platform lifecycle, registration state machines, race conditions with navigation, payload archaeology, and a half-dozen iOS and Android quirks. Nobody writes them down
