How to Build a Waitlist Page for Your Startup in 2026

You have an idea. Maybe you are still building it. Maybe it is ready, but you want to build an audience before you launch. Either way, the worst thing you can do is wait until launch day to start collecting emails. A waitlist page solves that problem. It lets you validate demand, build excitement, and collect real email addresses from genuinely interested people — before you write a single ...

The Real Cost of Bad Data

Somewhere in a data warehouse, a customer record sits incomplete. A postcode field contains only the first half of its expected value. An email address lacks its domain. A timestamp references a date that never existed. These fragments of broken data might seem trivial in isolation, but multiply them across millions of records and the consequences become staggering. According to Gartner research, ...

Detect, Collect, Isolate: Automated EC2 Malware Response with GuardDuty

Overview It's 2 AM. GuardDuty just flagged a malware finding on one of your EC2 instances. What happens next determines whether you have a contained incident or a full-blown breach. If the answer is "someone gets paged and logs in manually" — you already have a problem. This blog walks through building a fully automated incident response pipeline on AWS that triggers the moment GuardDu...

I got tired of PRs that just said "fix" — so I built a GitHub App that writes the description for you

We've all seen it. You open a pull request from a teammate — or your past self — and the description says: "fix bug" That's it. No context. No what changed. No why. You're now a code archaeologist trying to reverse-engineer intent from a diff. I've been that person. I've also been on the reviewing end, nudging people repeatedly for context that should've been in the description from the star...

FixBeacon: dependency scans that stay close to the repo

If you maintain real services, "we have Dependabot" is not the whole story. You still end up bouncing between PR noise, registries, advisories, and spreadsheets when you want a single place to answer: what is exposed right now, how bad is it, and what should we do next? That gap is what we're building toward with FixBeacon — a dependency and vulnerability dashboard tied to the repositories you ca...

The Bayesian Trap - A Mathematical Case for Trying Something New

Humans are notoriously terrible at intuitive probability. Imagine you wake up feeling slightly off. You visit the doctor, and she runs a battery of tests. A week later, she calls with bad news: you tested positive for a rare disease that affects 0.1% of the population. Panicked, you ask how accurate the test is. "It correctly identifies 99% of people who have the disease," she says, "and only gi...

Vibe Coding an AI-Powered Command Corrector in Rust over the Weekend

We’ve all been there: you type a complex command, hit enter, and get a face-full of command not found or a cryptic shell error. Usually, you’d reach for the legendary thefuck to fix it. But this weekend, I decided to take a different path. Driven by the "Vibe Coding" trend—leveraging AI to bridge the gap between idea and execution—I built idoit: a high-performance, AI-powered CLI command correct...

I Built a Website That Will Never, Ever Brew You Coffee

What I Built A website that lets you try to brew coffee. You can't. It's a teapot. That's it. That's the project. The "Problem" It Solves None. Absolutely zero. Coffee drinkers worldwide remain unhelped. How It Works Every time you click "Brew Coffee", the app faithfully responds with HTTP 418 — "I'm a Teapot" — exactly as RFC 2324 intended. The teapot will also roast you personally for ...

Title: The Overthinking Machine — I Built an AI That Turns "Tea or Coffee?" Into an Existential Crisis published: false

Every week there's a new AI that promises to change your life. Productivity tools. Life coaches. Career advisors. Decision helpers. All of them claiming to cut through the noise and help you think clearly. So I thought: why stop at useful? What if we built an AI that took the most trivial, absolutely-not-important decisions you face every day — and responded with the full weight of human philosoph...

The Ultimate Guide to Effectively Monitoring Cloud Workloads

In 2024, I watched as a single faulty cloud update led to a wave of global disruptions. Critical services stopped working. Companies and even governments had hours of downtime. I felt the panic. I saw how devastating a lack of visibility could be. Incidents like this taught me an important lesson: Effective monitoring and logging are the backbone of resilient cloud workloads. If I wanted to prev...

VS Code Performance Setup for Low-End Machines (My Real Workflow)

After writing about optimising my old Ryzen 7 3700U laptop, I wanted to go deeper into one specific tool: VS Code. It’s my main editor, but on older hardware it can feel slow, especially during startup or when switching between large files. Over time, I’ve built a setup that keeps VS Code responsive even on a low-end machine. This is the exact configuration I use on my Gateway GWNR71539 running W...

Ich bin 19, studiere Informatik und arbeite nebenbei als Minijobber im Kino. Das Studium macht Spaß, aber mir war ziemlich schnell klar: Wenn ich einen vernünftigen Werkstudentenjob im Bereich Cloud oder DevOps haben will, reicht Theorie allein nicht aus.

What an LLM Actually Does

Pretraining, Prompting, Sampling, and Alignment By the end of this post, you'll understand what an LLM actually learns during pretraining (ontologies, math, pronoun resolution, all of it) and why this happens from nothing more than predicting the next word. You'll know the three architectural families of LLMs (decoder-only, encoder-only, encoder-decoder) and when each one fits the job. ...

I Built a Browser Extension That Catches Your Secrets Before AI Does

We all do it. Copy a chunk of code, paste it into ChatGPT, ask "why doesn't this work?" — and accidentally send your AWS keys, database credentials, or a client's email along with it. I did it once. I pasted a config file into Claude and realized — three seconds too late — that it contained a production database connection string. Nothing bad happened. But that "oh no" feeling stuck with me.
