When RabbitMQ Accepts a Message but Does Not Route It to a Queue

RabbitMQ is a message broker that applications use to communicate asynchronously. A publisher sends a message to an exchange with a routing key.

A successful publish means RabbitMQ accepted the message at the exchange. It does not always mean that a queue received it. If no binding matches, the message is unroutable and may be dropped or returned to the publis

YAGNI in the Age of AI Coding

When I work with Claude or Codex, I often discuss software architecture with them.

The proposals are more general, more extensible, and more “future-proof.” There’s something funny about that last word. The models don’t know what the future of my software will look like. They’re applying familiar engineering advice: anticipate change, make components reusable, leave room
