Agentic AI still needs domain judgement

Agentic AI can write the thing, but it still cannot tell you whether the thing is right. That is where domain expertise matters, because a clean config or neat bit of glue logic can still be wrong in the way that only shows up in production.

wolfCOSE zero-allocation parsing in embedded C

wolfCOSE looks sensible only if you care about what your firmware actually has to carry. I like that, because on small targets the wrong crypto...

Layout trade-offs in Design Engineering Magazine

Joining R2 Data Catalog tables in R2 SQL

Cloudflare R2 SQL JOINs are useful when the relationship matters more than a single table scan, but I still reach for them with a bit of caution. The syntax is easy enough; the awkward part is keeping...

Cloudflare Radar MRT Explorer in the browser

Qwen3.7-Max agent workflows with tool bounds

Indexing prompt injection in search results

Search results are not neutral once retrieval gets involved. I keep seeing prompt injection treated as an edge case, when a single poisoned page can steer an answer if the stack is lazy about source...

Why AI-promoted commencement speeches backfire

AI-promoted commencement speeches fail for the same reason most institutional waffle does, they sound prepared for approval, not for people. Graduates can spot that instantly, and once they do, the...

Global domain takedown order and DNS controls

A global domain takedown order sounds neat on paper, but the web is stitched together by registries, registrars, proxies, and hosts, each with their own limits. I have seen enough of DNS controls to...
