You vibe code. Aigent.ly handles the vulnerabilities.

I kept seeing vibe coders ship vulnerabilities they didn't write AI coding tools are incredible. Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot — they let you build faster than ever. But there's a quiet problem nobody's talking about: Your AI coding tool's security context goes stale. Fast. New CVEs drop daily. Your AI doesn't know about them. So it keeps suggesting patterns and dependencies that were safe last month — and aren't anymore. You ship. The vulnerability ships with you. So I built Aigent.ly Aigent

I paid for Cursor and Claude Code for 6 months. Here's the one to keep.

"What's the best AI coding tool?" is the wrong question. It's like asking what's the best car without saying whether you're hauling a family or pallets. Cursor and Claude Code get pitted against each other in every thread, but they don't solve the same problem. You're going to pay for one subscription, not two. So here's a real take after six months of daily use on medium-sized TypeScript, Python and Rust projects. No synthetic benchmarks, no scripted demos. Cursor — 9.1/10 — best for ~80% of de

AI Is Not Killing Developer Jobs — But It Is Killing Certain Developer Habits

The Headline vs. The Reality "AI is replacing developers." It's everywhere. Breathless predictions about software engineers being the first white-collar profession to be automated away. CEOs citing AI as justification for hiring freezes. Boot camps quietly pivoting their messaging. The data doesn't support the headline. But the data does show something real — and developers who dismiss the AI-replacement narrative as pure hype are making a different kind of mistake. This post is my honest read

I left a Linux security guide half-finished for months — Copilot helped me wrap it up

I left a Linux security guide half-finished for months — Copilot helped me wrap it up (and taught me something I didn't expect) The project that sat there collecting dust I'm a teacher at SENAI in Taguatinga, Brazil. I teach Systems Development and Fullstack. A few months ago I created the linux-security-guide — a practical Linux guide focused on security, born directly from my classroom. The reason I started it was simple and honest: I was tired of 2-hour YouTube videos teaching th

Decoding the Observability Pipeline: A Java Architect's Guide to Metrics, Logs, and Traces

If you’ve spent any time modernizing a Java-based microservices architecture recently, you’ve likely hit the "Observability Wall." The ecosystem is drowning in tools. We hear about Prometheus, Loki, OpenSearch, Zipkin, Tempo, OpenTelemetry, Grafana Alloy, Datadog—the list never ends. Observability isn't about collecting tools; it’s about establishing reliable data streams that tell you exactly what your system is doing. In this article, we’re going to demystify observability architecture in the
