From PaaS to VPS: My Roadmap to Self-Hosting My SaaS

I’ve been building my projects with Nuxt 4 and loving the speed of PaaS platforms. They are incredible for getting started quickly. But recently, I wanted to understand what's happening "under the hood" and find a more predictable way to manage my infrastructure. I decided to move my projects to a VPS. My goal wasn't to bash any platform, but rather to gain more control and keep my monthly infrastructure costs predictable (around $5-$10). The Challenge: Self-hosting isn't always easy I'm not a f

Grand Theft Auto VI is warping the video game release calendar

Who's afraid of the next GTA? Based on the last few days of Summer Game Fest, just about everyone. Grand Theft Auto VI hasn't been present at any of the keynote events, but its presence was felt every time a release date was announced. The month of November, when GTA VI launches, is virtually empty. The rest of the fall, meanwhile, is absolutely packed. It started at Sony's State of Play showcase on Tuesday. Even before that show, we knew that Wolverine, the next big PlayStation exclusive, would

How I Built Two iOS Games in 3 Months as a Solo Developer

Hi, my name is Ri. Everyone says "use Unity for games." I tried. I spent time learning Unity, went through tutorials, understood the basics. Then I made a decision — Unity is for my third game. Not the first. Why? Because I already knew React Native. And the fastest way to ship is to use what you know. Unity has a steep learning curve and I wanted to actually finish something, not spend 6 months learning a new engine before writing a single line of game logic. So I built both games in React Nati

It will release on multiple platforms simultaneously - PC, PS5, Xbox Series X / S, and Nintendo Switch 2 - in spring 2027.

Building a Calorie Tracker in Telegram: Why the Best Architecture Is No App Store

Everyone told me you need a native mobile app to build a health product. "Users expect polished iOS/Android experiences." "Nobody trusts a bot with health data." "Telegram is just for memes." They were wrong on all three counts. After building NutritionCheckerBot — an AI-powered calorie tracker that lives entirely inside Telegram — here's why I believe the future of health tracking isn't in the App Store. The numbers tell a clear story. MyFitnessPal at $19.99/month requires 45 seconds and 8 taps

The Big Picture: How DevOps, Cloud and AI Are Converging — And What That Means for You

Pipeline & Prompts | Byte size guides on DevOps, Cloud and AI Forklifts beeping in reverse. Conveyor belts humming. Cold warehouse air hitting my face as I stood on the floor of a Delphi plant in 2002. I was staring at a maze of pallets, racks, and production lines, trying to redesign the entire material movement system. I had a chemical engineering degree, a head full of equations, and absolutely no idea how this moment would shape the next 20 years of my career. Back then I believed something
