AI Agents Are Distributed Systems in Disguise: The Advanced Mathematics, Color Architecture, and Engineering of Production Agentic Systems Let’s skip the surface-level marketing hype. We’ve all seen basic terminal demos: an LLM receives a prompt, calls a search tool, executes a shell script, and someone tweets about "AGI". Then you attempt to deploy that architecture to handle real production workloads. Three hours in, your agent gets trapped in a 35-step infinite retry loop, hallucinates a no

Adding full-text search to Postgres is a two-line migration. Running it in production without surprises is not. The GIN index that makes search fast also adds write amplification and a background cleanup process that can quietly fall behind under a heavy insert rate, and "relevance" that looked fine on your laptop can drift the day someone changes a dictionary. Before you decide Postgres search is or isn't enough, you need evidence — a load test against your real write rate and a relevance contr
BrawlerStats started with a simple question: if a Brawl Stars profile is public, why is it still difficult to understand how a player is progressing over time? I built BrawlerStats as a free, no-login companion for public Brawl Stars data. You can search a public player tag, review trophies and brawler progress, inspect recent tracked battles, open public club rosters, and create daily trophy races between players. The frontend is intentionally lightweight: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript hosted on Fi
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to add the modern text animations shown in the cover video to your website using SplitFX , a JavaScript plugin for splitting and animating text.

Your AI agent passes every test. It handles edge cases. You demo it to your team and everyone nods. Then you deploy it. And it breaks. Not a little. Catastrophically. The kind of break where you stare at logs for three hours wondering what went wrong, only to discover your RAG pipeline silently returned the wrong chunk 40% of the time. You're not alone. RAND Corporation found that 80-90% of AI agent projects never reach production. That's twice the failure rate of non-AI IT projects. The gap isn
TL;DR: "Claude can't draw" is a budget problem, not a capability problem. codex-bridge (MIT) is a Claude Code plugin that routes image generation (gpt-image-2) and five GPT-5 subagents through the Codex CLI login you already have — billing against your ChatGPT plan instead of a second API key. I have not tested or run it; this is a source-reading review. How it works. Two bash wrappers shell out to codex exec, Codex CLI's non-interactive mode, with your existing codex login (both scripts check c
