A six-line edit made fifteen units stale. The freshness check was working correctly.

23+ min ago   (530+ words) Every unit of this project carries a record of its last verification, and each record pins the configuration it was checked against by hashing it. If the configuration changes, the pin no longer reproduces and the record goes stale, which…...

Metrics You Get Without Writing Any

14+ min ago   (1448+ words) A machine-written snapshot of one service counts 67 metric records. Six of them came from the service. The rest arrived with the runtime - and the rules for adding a new one are stricter than the rules for writing the code that…...

Our SSRF guard passed every test we ran — until a stranger's comment pointed out the test we never ran

27+ min ago   (300+ words) Then I didn't follow up. The comment sat there for weeks. Going back to it tonight, the gap was worse than I'd worried. Five of our endpoints (redirect-trace, security-scan, security-headers, favicon, scrape) fetch a user-supplied URL. All five guarded against…...

Overcoming the Performance Tax in AI Safety: Engineering a Low-Latency Control Plane for Autonomous Agents

36+ min ago   (668+ words) As enterprise AI systems move from single-turn retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) toward agents that plan, call tools, and modify external state, safety can no longer be treated only as text filtering. The goal is not to promise "zero overhead." The goal…...

I published a benchmark that was entirely my own bug

1+ hour, 3+ min ago   (898+ words) I built a small thing and then spent considerably longer trying to find out whether it worked. The trying-to-find-out is the part worth writing about, because for seven runs my measurement was broken in a way that produced confident, specific,…...

Fill an SMS Verification Code Without Reading the Inbox

1+ hour, 9+ min ago   (134+ words) Codename One adds phone-number and OTP components plus one-time-code autofill on iOS, Android, and the web without requesting permission to read SMS messages. Tagged with java, mobile, android, ios....

Designing a Privacy-First Architecture for Sensitive Data: Zero-IP Logging, Postgres RLS, and AI Safety

1+ hour, 23+ min ago   (216+ words) When building software that handles sensitive human data (like workplace feedback, satisfaction surveys, and compliance reports), security and privacy cannot be treated as optional features or mere legal disclaimers. They must be embedded into the core system design. At Sigilo…...

When Every Event Looks Normal: Logster and the Context Gap in Endpoint Detection

11+ hour, 15+ min ago   (1029+ words) A PowerShell process starts. A script appears in a temporary directory. A scheduled task is registered. A connection goes out to an unfamiliar address. An analyst could find a reasonable explanation for each of those actions. Software deployment, perhaps. A…...

I Blamed the Firewall for 48 Hours. localhost Resolved to IPv6 First

14+ hour, 51+ min ago   (786+ words) This is a 48-hour field notebook, not a victory lap. I will show what I tried, what actually broke, and the small reproduction I wish I had run in the first hour. If you strip every product name out of…...
