We built a plugin for the GitHub Accessibility Scanner to make sure your alt text is actually accessible. Here's how it works.
They're like riding a bike: easy, and you don't get it until you try.
Identity alone doesn't guarantee a bot will behave responsibly. We are introducing a system to continuously evaluate whether Verified bots honor site preferences, like robots.txt and HTTP 429s, ensuring they remain accountable over time.

Another story of something I saw in the field which surprised me. Turns out recovery_prefetch can cause outages. Something which has been happening quietly in the background all the time, but we didn’t notice until we looked close enough to see it. After a lot of work I discovered this was partly a case where someone had dropped an email to the postgres hackers list years ago “hey what about this” and everyone thought “nah it can’t be that bad” … and now here we are seeing production outages! Exhibit A: Feb 2021, while the feature was being developed, a year and a half before it shipped, Stephen Frost Issuing unnecessary prefetches for blocks we’ve already sent a prefetch for is arguably a concern even if FPWs are off but the benefit of doing the prefetching almost certainly will outweight that and mean that finding a way to address it is something we could certainly do later as a future improvement. I wouldn’t have any issue with that. Just doesn’t seem as clear-cut to me when thinking about the FPW-enabled case. Ultimately, if you, Andres and Munro are all not concerned about it and no one else speaks up then I’m not going to pitch a fuss over it being c
Read replicas are one tool, but tuning a replica for one job and sending it another is a recipe for conflict. (I consult on PostgreSQL through PGX Inc..)
Dynata reimagined its development lifecycle with AI, moving from AI-assisted coding to the AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) methodology with Kiro IDE. Learn how the company reduced the development phase of full-stack features from three to four sprints to roughly one, with every team aligned from the start.
Learn how to combine deterministic orchestration with bounded agentic reasoning using AWS Step Functions and the Amazon Bedrock AgentCore harness. This medical coding workflow escalates cheapest-first: a safety block-list, then exact matching, then an AI agent only for terms that need judgment, keeping every routing decision auditable.
MagicRoute scores connectors (subnet routers, app connectors, exit nodes, Tailscale Services) for stability, less flapping, and custom DERP servers.
