MinIO Is Dead, Long Live MinIO
MinIO’s open-source repo has been officially archived. No more maintenance. End of an era — but open source doesn’t die that easily. I forked MinIO, restored the admin console, rebuilt the binary distribution pipeline, and brought it back to life. If you’re running MinIO, swap minio/minio for pgsty/minio. Everything else stays the same. (CVE fixed, […]
Moldova broke our data pipeline
This is one of those funny stories about a bug you want to remember to tell your grandkids before bed (omg, what a terrible grandpa I’m going to be). Anyway, a few days ago our DMS replication started failing. Redshift was rejecting rows. The pipeline was choking. Nothing had changed in the pipeline, how on […]
Verified Spec-Driven Development (VSDD)
The Fusion: VDD × TDD × SDD for AI-Native Engineering Verified Spec-Driven Development (VSDD) is a unified software engineering methodology that fuses three proven paradigms into a single AI-orchestrated pipeline: Spec-Driven Development (SDD): Define the contract before writing a single line of implementation. Specs are the source of truth. Test-Driven Development (TDD): Tests are written […]
The whole thing was a scam
The fix was in, and Dario never had a chance. Probably you already saw how it all turned out. On the very same day that Altman offered public support to Amodei, he signed a deal to take away Amodei’s business, with a deal that wasn’t all that different. You can’t get more Altman than that. […]
Show HN: SQLite for Rivet Actors – one database per agent, tenant, or document
What is Rivet? Rivet Actors are a serverless primitive for stateful workloads. Each actor has built-in state, storage, workflows, scheduling, and WebSockets — everything needed to build the next generation of software.
DOS Memory Management
The memory management in DOS is simple, but that simplicity may be deceptive. There are several rather interesting pitfalls that programming documentation often does not mention. DOS 1.x (1981) had no explicit memory management support. It was designed to run primarily on machines with 64K RAM or less, or not too much more (the original […]
Cognitive Debt: When Velocity Exceeds Comprehension
The engineer shipped seven features in a single sprint. DORA metrics looked immaculate. The promotion packet practically wrote itself. Six months later, an architectural change required modifying those features. No one on the team could explain why certain components existed or how they interacted. The engineer who built them stared at her own code like […]
Show HN: Rust-powered document chunker for RAG – 40x faster, O(1) memory

Please do not use auto-scrolling content on the web and in applications
Some of us still remember the wild wild web of the previous millennium, with animated gifs and even dedicated HTML element called marquee – a very dynamic and moving visual medium where texts and images flied, mostly horizontally, but sometimes also totally randomly. It was funny for some people, but a potential disaster to others. […]
Show HN: Decided to play god this morning, so I built an agent civilisation
A computational ecosystem where autonomous agents evolve on a graph. No grids, no human-world assumptions — just a Watts-Strogatz small-world network, NEAT-style brains, and natural selection doing the teaching. Think of it as a digital petri dish: agents perceive, act, reproduce, and die. Their genomes evolve. Brains get more complex (or simpler, if that works […]
