Hi everyone, my name is P Swyom Sanjog. Welcome back to my blog—I hope you’re all doing well. Today, I’m bringing a new topic: Virtual DOM. Let’s understand what the Virtual DOM is in simple terms. We’ll cover key questions like what it is, why it’s used, and how it works. So, let’s get started! Virtual Dom So, let’s break down the topic into “Virtual” and “DOM.” Virtual means something that exi
Your phone will connect to the strongest tower it hears. It does not ask for ID first. It assumes trust, and that assumption is the entire problem. I first noticed this in 2019 outside a security conference in Las Vegas. My test Android dropped from LTE to 2G for 47 seconds, then returned to normal. No user notification. The baseband logs showed a cipher downgrade to A5/0, a location area code tha
This technical post walks through the design and implementation of Secure Playground: a local web app that simulates prompt-injection attacks against large language models and demonstrates simple defenses. Provide a minimal, reproducible environment to test payloads and defensive strategies. Make it easy to add new providers and run mutation-based red-team experiments. Offer a leaderboard and scor
In recent months, a peculiar behavior observed in Visual Studio Code (VS Code) has sparked discussions among developers: the automatic insertion of the phrase “co-authored by Copilot” in the code comments, even when GitHub Copilot is not actively used by the developer. This phenomenon raises essential questions regarding code attribution, developer productivity, and the implications of AI-assisted

This is Part 1 of a two-part series. Part 2 (coming soon): Connecting to spoke clusters from a controller using multicluster-runtime, driven by ClusterProfile. The Cluster Inventory API (multicluster.x-k8s.io) is driven by SIG-Multicluster and centered on the ClusterProfile resource. It only delivers value when something produces those ClusterProfiles. That something is a cluster manager. Today, t
When developers travel, we usually prepare the obvious things. Laptop charger. But there is one dependency that is easy to underestimate until it breaks: mobile internet. A trip to China makes this especially obvious. Not because China is hard to travel in, but because so many basic interactions are mobile-first: navigation, translation, ride-hailing, hotel communication, ticket confirmations, pay
We've been there. JSON Schema gets hard to write as soon as your payload is non-trivial. Conditional logic, cross-field rules, business invariants, and at some point we stop writing contracts at all. We go code-first, generate the schema from annotations, and end up with 200 lines very few understand, and error messages referencing paths like #/properties/items/allOf/0/then/Then that map to nothin
