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
Hey Dev Community, Like many of you, I hit a wall with GA4. It’s powerful, sure—but it’s also cluttered, slow, and often feels like it was designed for a data scientist rather than a developer or a brand owner who just needs to see what’s working. I wanted something different. I wanted a platform that felt like a developer tool: minimalist, tech-oriented, and focused on actual insight rather than

I didn’t go into the MeDo hackathon with some big, polished idea. I just wanted to build something I’d actually use. So I made Exam AI. The problem is simple: studying for exams is chaotic. You read notes, search things, forget half of it, and then try to cram everything at the end. I wanted something that helps you actively think, not just passively read. You give Exam AI a topic — anything you’r
