How to use AI-written code in without intellectual property issues If you're going to use AI at work, you'd better be sure the code it writes doesn't put your business at risk

The IP risks of AI at work are nontrivial

In a world full of AI written newsletters, posts, and replies - be human

It’s the only differentiator

Everything that matters from OpenAI DevDay Apps SDK, Agent Builder, and much more

DevDay rocked.
2025 is the year of agents.
Agent builder just unlocked it for everyone

Thank you for this! Genuinely hadn't heard of Adonis but it sounds like exactly what I was looking for!

wow,thank you for the feedback! This is really cool and I'll dig in and see about adding it!!

Node is mostly hard because you have to make tons of decisions. Which framework to choose is chief among them. Check out the guide I wrote for my friends @judoscale.com judoscale.com/blog/which-n...

Where to Host a Python Web App Python makes it really simple to write a web app, but hosting can be hard. We'll walk through the best options for hosting Python web applications.

After having tried my own self-hosted setup, I'm beginning to think self hosting is almost never the best choice unless you value your time at $0.

Choosing the Best Python Web Framework The Python community is lucky enough to have great options to pick from when choosing the right framework. Read on to learn which one is best for your project.

After digging through the top Python web frameworks, it seems like FastAPI is the right choice for most projects.

Nothing will make you appreciate the Ruby community more than sharing a piece of Python content on Reddit

Processing 10,000 background tasks a day is a lot different than processing 100 background tasks a day

Loved digging into Python task queues with my friends at Judoscale 🥷

Choosing The Right Python Task Queue

I've been digging more into Python lately and came across the problem of task queues.

What are task queues? How do I choose one?

Is No PaaS really a good idea for Rails? Rails 8 promises to make it easier to deploy and host Rails apps, no-PaaS required. Jump in with us to see how it falls a bit short of this lofty promise.

"For me, the answer is no — Rails 8 doesn’t remove the value proposition of platforms. I’d rather focus on my app and let a platform like Heroku handle the infrastructure."

Is No PaaS really a good idea for Rails? Rails 8 promises to make it easier to deploy and host Rails apps, no-PaaS required. Jump in with us to see how it falls a bit short of this lofty promise.

Rails 8 shipped with a strong promise - No PaaS Required

But does it deliver? I don't exactly think so

For some reason everyone always shows off agents booking travel. I’d be more interested in:

• Planning a date with something unique in your city 
• Applying to jobs that fit given criteria
• Sifting through email and adding things to my todo list as-needed

I don’t know who needs to here this but,

It’s okay to get rid of those old Apple boxes

AI won't replace (most) software engineers (and how to not get replaced)

My AI-augmented software dev stack:

Cursor (in agent mode)
ChatGPT (o1)

That’s it! Just these two tools and I’m shipping side project after side project

I’m telling every engineer I know to double down on using AI tools. Better to be augmented by AI then replaced by it

The prompt engineering guide from the makers of Claude All of the best tips from Anthropic's deep dive on writing better AI prompts

with each new model release, prompt engineering seems to matter less and less

still, I think well-crafted prompts give you an edge when using AI tools
