Laravel 13: A Practical Guide for PHP Developers Laravel continues to be one of the most popular PHP frameworks for building modern web applications. With Laravel 13, the framework continues its focus on developer productivity while adding capabilities that make it easier to build modern applicatio
A function's return type is supposed to indicate the kind of data that it produces. Rust's "never" type, which is denoted by an exclamation mark ("!"), is the type the language uses to mark a function that never returns and other places where a value can never occur. For a long time, the never typ
Security updates have been issued by AlmaLinux (expat, git-lfs, grafana-pcp, kernel-rt, python3.14-cryptography, redis:6, skopeo, and xmlrpc-c), Debian (jbig2dec and strongswan), Fedora (baresip, chirp, chromium, corosync, emacs, GitPython, libre, libsoup3, nsd, perl-Net-OAuth, and perl-XML-Bare), M
Disclosure: I work on ESCPost and Receiptful, both mentioned below. ESCPost is Apache-2.0 and needs no account, so you can check every claim here yourself. If you have ever wired up a thermal printer, you know the loop: Move a column. Print. Squint at 58mm of paper. The total is off, or the euro
You set a breakpoint inside a Spring MVC controller, or a service, send the request to an HTTP endpoint, and nothing happens. The response is back – and it is a 403 (or 401, or a redirect to a login page). At that point, the bug you were trying to catch is no longer the […]
I'm looking to get guidance on what tools / platforms to use for a new website. Structurally, the site is essentially a directory site with multiple directories. The directories are; Recipes (although these also feel a little like blogs & could function as such) Restaurants (a list of restaurant
Six weeks ago, our team made a decision that raised eyebrows in our org: we were going to let an AI agent drive the refactoring of a 200,000-line Java monolith. Not assist. Not suggest. Drive. We'd give Claude Code a CLAUDE.md with the target architecture, the constraints, the test suite, and the
Why should you care? Many real-world problems are not naturally represented as a simple sequence or hierarchy. Consider: Cities connected by roads People connected through friendships Computers connected through a network Web pages connected through hyperlinks Courses connected through prerequi
I spent my first year as a cloud associate learning things the slow way, mostly by causing small problems and cleaning them up. None of it was in a certification. Here is the list I would hand my past self, the stuff that actually mattered once I was responsible for real infrastructure instead of a
Compute and storage are the charges you expect. Data transfer is the one that shows up on the bill as a number you cannot immediately explain, because nothing you provisioned is called "data transfer." It is a side effect of how your architecture moves bytes around, and AWS prices it in ways that ar
Hey everyone, A server's vanity URL is a big part of its identity on Discord, but standard bots aren't able to manage or protect them if snipers or nukers try to steal it because Discord restricts bots from changing vanity URLs. To help fix this, I built Discord Vanity Protector (DVP) using Discord
Introduction Implementing the Karatsuba multiplication algorithm on an 8-bit computer isn’t just an academic exercise—it’s a practical solution to a real-world problem. Resource-constrained systems, like the 8-bit TTL computer I’ve been hacking on, face inherent limitations in memory, processing p
Compliance itself isn't the villain. The problem is a system designed for large banks being forced onto small teams who measure time in sprints, not fiscal quarters. Innovation was never meant to wait for permission. It's supposed to be fast, chaotic, and full of discovery. But for anyone who has
If a question is still open inside the text, the text isn't ready to be handed over. 👋 Hi — I'm Anton, a software engineer working mostly in PHP/Symfony and Go, currently carving a live PHP monolith into Go services. This part is about the thing I hand over when I hand over work: the text itself
If you've ever stood in your kitchen watching a video call freeze while you had five bars in the office ten metres away, you've met a WiFi dead zone. The usual reaction is to blame the router and go buy a more expensive one. That almost never fixes it, because the router was rarely the actual bottle
I built Charitas Clew for a 72-hour DEV Weekend Challenge. It worked. I submitted it. And then I did something slightly inconvenient: I kept poking at it. Apparently one day is enough historical distance from an event to call what follows a "retrospective," so here we are. lol Charitas Clew takes
There are two real ways to do this: Cloudflare's own native Email Service binding, or calling an external email API like Notify over fetch(). I'll walk through both, but I want to flag something about the native option up front that's easy to miss until you're actually setting it up: it currently re
The problem OCR is only as good as the image you feed it. A scanned form that's slightly tilted, low-contrast, or has a noisy background can tank recognition accuracy — even with a good OCR engine behind it. Most of the time the fix isn't a better OCR model, it's a cleaner input image. I wanted s
In a customer-support system, the hard part of account shutdown is deciding what must stop now and what can wait. A stolen refresh token is an immediate abuse problem; an account deletion request is a data-lifecycle problem with a different recovery window. Short answer: keep a stable user ID, mark
