Python Data Model - Part 1

Leia a versão em português deste artigo aqui. 1. Introduction Ever wondered why modifying a list inside a function changes the original list, but modifying a number doesn't? You've just run into one of the most fundamental — and most misunderstood — concepts in Python: its data model. Understanding how Python represents, identifies, and compares objects isn't just theory: it's what sa...

Google reCAPTCHA v2 and v3 in React, Vue, or Angular, with one prop

Every time I add Google reCAPTCHA to a form I end up rewriting the same glue: load the script exactly once, register and clean up global callbacks, handle the token expiring, and remember that v2 and v3 work nothing alike. So I packaged it into three tiny libraries, one per framework, with the same API: recaptcha-react recaptcha-vue recaptcha-angular They are zero-dependency, fully typed, test...

Common Mistakes Beginner Software Engineers Make (And How to Avoid Them)

Starting a career in software engineering is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. With countless programming languages, frameworks, tools, and best practices to learn, it's easy to make mistakes. The good news is that these mistakes are part of the learning process. What matters most is recognising them early and taking steps to improve. Whether you're self-taught, a bootcamp graduate, or a...

I Added an MCP Server to NPMScan for AI Coding Agents

I Added an MCP Server to NPMScan for AI Coding Agents AI coding agents are increasingly choosing libraries, installing dependencies, and modifying package.json files. But when an agent recommends an npm package, it may rely on model knowledge, general web search, or incomplete package information. I wanted NPMScan to be available directly inside that workflow. NPMScan now has a publi...

The Best Loading States Are No Loading States

Jenna Smith with some pretty solid UX advice as it relates to loading states: Rather than designing another loading state, I improve the preload strategy until the issue disappears entirely. She points to Route Transitions and preloading data as solutions that get closer to pages that load everything at once, like a default website, while […]

Token Revocation Is Not an Endpoint

I recently wrote a sentence I need to correct: “DPoP stops replay. The gap most teams miss is revocation lag once the token walked.” The second half points at a real problem. The first half is too loose. If only the token walked, a correctly implemented DPoP flow should make it useless to the thief. The harder problem begins when the attacker has the token and its proof key, can execute inside the...

Two exploits, one public API key: the day I attacked my own Supabase app

This is a submission for DEV's Summer Bug Smash: Smash Stories powered by Sentry. Every app has its rockstar bug. Mine didn't crash, didn't throw, didn't page me at 3am. It just sat there in production — behind a paying customer's login — waiting for anyone with a browser to walk on stage and take a bow. Then I decided to attack my own app with nothing but the API key I ship to every visitor. Tw...

Enforcement and audit are the same act. Most agent stacks still treat them as two.

The EU AI Act's high-risk obligations hit full enforcement on August 2, 2026. Article 12 wants a queryable record of every AI-driven decision — including whether each governance intervention was a hard gate or a soft gate. Here's the part I keep seeing teams miss: most agent deployments produce neither. They log prompts and completions. That's a record of what the agent said — intent and respons...

Follow Existing Patterns” Is Not Enough Context for an AI Coding Agent

Many engineering teams give AI coding agents instructions that sound perfectly clear: Follow existing patterns. Do not introduce new abstractions. Use the established architecture. Follow project standards. A human developer can usually interpret those instructions because the words are only part of the communication. The developer also brings professional experience, familiarity with the c...

How can I remove this random part of my website that

I’m building a Next.js app with a global dark theme, and I’m seeing a strange issue where the page background looks like it has two different dark colors. I defined a single CSS variable for the background, but part of the page appears to use a different dark shade even though I can’t find any CSS rule setting it. When the page is dark, the content area looks like it has a different dark backgrou...

Tech Lead vs Team Lead

I understand team lead is more managerial but I’m still not sure I understand the black and white differences. Backstory, I’m a good senior in a pretty weak team. We had a team lead leave last year and have not replaced yet. Recent discussions with management we spoke about me potentially stepping into a tech lead role (I don’t want to manage but enjoy mentoring), or alternatively proposing my own...
