Under the Hood of JobRadar: 8 Job Sources, a 1.7B Model, Zero Cloud

Job searching is tab hell. You open six boards, re-read the same listings, and pay $30/month for tools that are just feed aggregators wearing an "AI-powered" sticker. So I built JobRadar — a CLI tool that searches 8 job sources concurrently and scores every listing against your profile using a local LLM that runs on your own CPU. No API keys, no subscriptions, no resume leaving your machine. The...

Building a Better Erhu Tuner: Why Auto correlation Beats Standard Pitch Detection in the Browser

If you've ever tried building a web-based instrument tuner using the Web Audio API, you probably started where most of us do: feeding microphone data into an AnalyserNode, running a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), and looking for the highest frequency peak. It’s a classic, straightforward approach. And for synthesized tones or simple plucked strings, it works reasonably well. But recently, I built...

Observer: The YouTube Subscribe Pattern

You subscribe to a YouTube channel and hit the bell. Now, whenever the creator uploads, you get notified automatically. You don't sit there refreshing every five minutes asking "new video yet?" The channel pushes the news to everyone subscribed. The channel is the thing being watched — the Subject. You and the other subscribers are the Observers. A new upload is the event that triggers notific...

I Let an AI Write My Tests for 30 Days: Coverage Went 38% to 71%

Here's the number that surprised me: 30 days, zero tests written by hand, coverage from 38% to 71%. I handed test-writing to an open-source AI agent (search the-agent on GitHub) and let it generate, run, and maintain my tests from natural-language descriptions. This is the full account — the workflow, the configs, the pitfalls, and the honest trade-offs. Why I Tried This Last month I ...

From Zero to 500+ Downloads: A Small Milestone for Akhouri Systems

few months ago, Akhouri Systems existed only as an idea. Today, our projects have collectively crossed 500+ downloads. 🎉 For many companies, that's a tiny number. For me, it's proof that people are willing to trust software built by an independent developer. No funding. No office. No paid marketing. No large team. Just continuous learning, building, testing, and improving. Every Download ...

What I learned building an agent platform that actually ships

I built an agent platform. Not a demo — an actual platform where every tool call is governed, audited, and scoped to a workspace. Here's what I learned. Every skill is a first-class citizen The platform has 27 skills across 7 groups — platform ops, publishing (dev.to, LinkedIn), testing (a full TEA suite with risk matrices, baseline characterization, NFR audits), communication (Slack,...

The one design-review question that would have caught our APIM naming collision

"Property with the same name already exist." That's the whole error. No stack trace worth reading, no line number, just APIM refusing a PUT and a pipeline stuck red at 2pm. The instinct was to blame the script. It's always the instinct. Somebody had touched the apiops publisher config two days earlier, so that got the first look, and it was clean. The real cause was quieter and, honestly, more in...

A lint that crashes before it asserts is worse than no lint

A lint that crashes before it asserts is worse than no lint We recently found a CI gate that had been reporting green for weeks without ever actually checking anything. The guard was a small Python test that enumerated tracked files with git ls-files before running a set of per-file assertions. It worked perfectly on every developer machine and on most CI pods — until it ran inside a s...

AI Won't Replace DevOps Engineers—But These 7 Skills Will Make You Irreplaceable in 2026

The future of DevOps isn't about competing with AI—it's about learning how to work alongside it. Artificial Intelligence has changed DevOps forever. Today, AI can generate Terraform code, write Dockerfiles, explain Kubernetes manifests, create CI/CD pipelines, debug Bash scripts, and even help troubleshoot production issues. Many developers are asking: "Will AI replace DevOps Engineers?" T...

Human-in-the-Loop vs Autonomous AI Agents: A Cost Comparison

Originally published on robatdasorvi.com Putting a human in the loop doesn't make your AI system safer — it makes it slower, more expensive, and for most task categories at scale, less accurate. That sentence will make some of you close this tab. That's fine. But if you're building an AI agent pipeline and you've defaulted to human-in-the-loop because it feels like the responsible call, you're s...

RAG Is Not Enough: What Retrieval Still Gets Wrong in 2026

Originally published on robatdasorvi.com For about two years I told clients that retrieval-augmented generation was the fix for hallucination. Bolt a vector database onto the model, ground every answer in a real document, ship it. I was wrong, or at least only half right, and the data proving it has been sitting on arXiv since May 2024. Here is the number that should have stopped the RAG victory...

Twelve AWS networking questions, and what the interviewer is actually listening for

I have asked some version of "walk me through why this EC2 instance can't reach the internet" in about forty interviews. Maybe six people answered it well. Not because it's hard. Because most candidates answer the question they wish had been asked. They recite what a NAT gateway is. The question was diagnostic, and diagnosis is a different skill from definition. These are the twelve that come up...

The Data Structure That Finally Made Recursion Click For Me

Data structures and algorithms in C++ was probably the course that pushed me the hardest this year. A lot of it clicked eventually, but one topic in particular — linked lists combined with recursion — took me way longer to understand than I expected. Here's what finally made it make sense. Why linked lists felt harder than arrays Coming from arrays, linked lists felt unnecessarily comp...
