Schneier on Security
The Realities of AI Video Surveillance
The Financial Times has a good article on how AI is changing the capabilities of video surveillance, with information from both Israel/Iran and Russia. I wrote about this sort of thing a few years ago, how AI enables mass spying in the way that computers and networks enabled mass surveillance. The interesting development in the article is that AI allows people to ask natural language questions about video footage to AIs—and AIs can answer them. In contrast with older tools restricted to a few dozen preset searches, these new tools allow an almost unlimited range of enquiries by enabling language-based searches on video...

Agriculture is ready for AI, but its data isn’t
Artificial intelligence is transforming what is possible in agriculture, but industry leaders should be wary of investing in AI without first laying the groundwork. The use cases are promising, especially for an industry navigating volatile fertilizer costs, unpredictable weather, and margins that leave little room for error. Research shows AI-enabled predictive models can improve crop…

Meet the lawyer who beat Elon Musk — twice
Watching Elon Musk fulminate at Bill Savitt during Musk v.

Savitt's questions were "designed to trick me," […]

Why Accessibility Is An Operational Capability, Not A Feature
Teams can generate UI faster than ever, but they still have to guarantee that what they ship is usable, secure, and maintainable. Accessibility as an operational capability rather than a compliance checklist or end-of-project audit, and what that looks like in practice.

A map of the latest 11 million papers split by semantic similarity and time slices [P]
I am building alternative ways explore scientifc literature. The goal was to make the large number of papers published daily easier to keep up with by visualising the macro scopic trend. It is free to use at The Global Research Space for any one interested in giving it a try! How I built it I sourced the latest 11M papers from OpenAlex and Arxiv and ecoded them using SPECTER 2 on titles and abstracts then projecting it down to 2d using UMAP and creating labels within voronoi bounds around high density peaks at increasingly deep depths. There is also support for both keyword and semantic queries, and there's an analytics layer for ranking institutions, authors, and topics etc. I have also more recently added to ability to slide back and forth in time and a daily auto ingestion script to ensure the map is up to date. Feedback or suggestions is very welcome! submitted by /u/icannotchangethename [link] [留言]

This motor could be the future of e-bikes
Imagine an e-bike motor that lets you select your preferred pedaling cadence and then automatically adjusts the gears to keep your legs spinning at that exact speed, no matter how steep the hill gets - all without a fragile derailleur or heavy multi-speed cassette to maintain. Prefer manual control? No problem, you can have as […]

Day 89 of Learning MERN Stack
Hello Dev Community! 👋 It is officially Day 89 of my 100-day full-stack engineering run! 🎯 Yesterday, I kicked off my competitive solving streak on HackerRank. Today, I advanced from standard linear filters into the powerful world of textual pattern recognition by mastering: SQL Regular Expressions (REGEXP) and String Anchors! 🔍🛡️ When processing real-world data pipelines—like validating structured phone inputs, email domains, or parsing specific text queries—standard LIKE operators can make your code messy and repetitive. Today, I solved these constraints elegantly. 🧠 Shifting from Bulky LIKE Statements to Sleek REGEXP As tracked inside my workspace files across "Screenshot (193).png" and "Screenshot (195).png" , I solved two distinct core challenges from the HackerRank series: 1. Match from the Start: Weather Observation Station 6 The Goal: Query the list of CITY names from STATION that start with vowels ( a , e , i , o , u ), ensuring no duplicates are returned. The Evolution: Instead of chaining multiple LIKE queries or cutting sub-strings with LEFT() , I utilized the caret anchor ( ^ ) inside a regular expression array to verify the string's starting boundary instantly: sql SELECT DISTINCT CITY FROM STATION WHERE CITY REGEXP "^(A|E|I|O|U)";

Building a Denim Collection API: A Practical Guide to Handling Product Variants
If you've ever worked with e-commerce data, you know that "a pair of jeans" is never just one product. A single style might come in 5 washes, 8 sizes, and 3 inseam lengths. That's 120 potential SKUs. Handling this correctly in an API can be tricky, so let me share a pattern I've used for structuring product variants. The core problem is balancing flexibility with performance. You want customers to filter by size, color, and fit without making dozens of API calls. Here's a simple but effective approach using a normalized database schema with a flat query layer: -- Products table (the "parent") CREATE TABLE products ( id UUID PRIMARY KEY , name TEXT NOT NULL , description TEXT , base_price DECIMAL ( 10 , 2 ), category TEXT ); -- Variants table (the actual sellable items) CREATE TABLE variants ( id UUID PRIMARY KEY , product_id UUID REFERENCES products ( id ), sku TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL , size TEXT , color TEXT , wash TEXT , inseam TEXT , price DECIMAL ( 10 , 2 ), -- can override base price stock_quantity INT , image_url TEXT ); The key insight? Keep the product metadata (description, care instructions, brand story) in the products table, but put all the sellable attributes in variants. This lets you run queries like: -- Find all size 28 jeans in "mid wash" under $80 SELECT p . name , v . color , v . wash , v . price , v . stock_quantity FROM products p JOIN variants v ON p . id = v . product_id WHERE p . category = &# 039 ; women - jeans &# 039 ; AND v . size = &# 039 ; 28 &# 039 ; AND v . wash LIKE &# 039 ; % mid %&# 039 ; AND v . price & lt ; 80 AND v . stock_quantity & gt ; 0 ORDER BY v . price ; For the frontend, I usually return a flattened structure: { "product": { "id": "abc -123 " , "name": "Classic Straight Leg Jean" , "description": "High-rise fit in stretch denim..." , "availableSizes": [ " 24 " , " 25 " , " 26 " , " 27 "

Why I built 434 free tools instead of one
Every developer I know has the same five tabs permanently open. A JSON formatter from some site that loads three cookie banners before the textarea appears. A Base64 encoder that's been running on a 2009-era PHP server. A unit converter that requires an email address for no obvious reason. A percentage calculator buried under a wall of AdSense. And a spreadsheet they opened last Tuesday and forgot to close. We've normalised this. We've accepted that reaching for a basic tool means either tolerating a terrible experience or building one ourselves. I got tired of both options. So I built The Calcu. Not a single tool. Not a focused niche product. Four hundred and thirty-four tools across calculators, converters, generators, formatters, and validators. Finance, tax, health, math, marketing, developer utilities, and everyday calculations, all in one place with no login, no paywall, and no data leaving your browser. The case for breadth over niche The conventional product advice is to pick one problem and go deep. I thought about that seriously. But when I mapped out how I actually use calculator-type tools in a day, I don't have one recurring need. I have twelve unrelated ones: compound interest this morning, a JSON diff this afternoon, a word count before I send a draft, a GST check before I raise an invoice. Building a single niche tool would have solved one of those and left the other eleven pushing me toward competitors. The constraint I set was that every tool had to load instantly, update in real time as you type, and never require an account. If I couldn't ship it to that standard, I didn't ship it. That discipline kept the breadth from becoming bloat. The architecture decision that made this possible All calculations run entirely in the browser. Nothing is sent to a server. This is partly a privacy decision, partly a performance decision, and partly the reason the whole thing stays free to run at scale. When there's no server-side compute to bill, the cost model

The Complete Node.js Masterclass (2026): Beginner to Professional
I'm Zabi, 16, from Pakistan. I got tired of 10-minute YouTube tutorials that skip the hard parts , so I spent 3 weeks writing a complete Node.js guide from scratch. It's 10,000+ words. No fluff. Just everything you need to go from console.log to production . I published it free on my site ZabiTech Community, but I'm sharing the key roadmap here for DEV. What this masterclass covers : Part 1: Fundamentals (most tutorials stop here) Event Loop explained like you're 5 Streams, Buffers, and why Node is fast CommonJS vs ES Modules in 2026 Part 2: Building Real Apps Express.js from zero REST API + GraphQL Authentication (JWT, sessions) File uploads, WebSockets Part 3: Production (what they never teach) Performance optimization techniques Clustering & Worker Threads Docker + deploying to free hosting Security checklist Part 4: Getting Hired 50+ Node.js interview questions with answers How to build a portfolio that gets callbacks Why I wrote this: I'm learning Node.js myself for backend development. Every tutorial I found was either too basic or assumed I knew DevOps. So I documented everything as I learned it – including the mistakes. The full guide has code examples, diagrams, and a complete project you can deploy. 👉 Read the full 10,000-word masterclass here: https://zabitechcommunity.netlify.app/posts/the-complete-nodejs-masterclass-2026-beginner-to-professional-guide.html?utm_source=dev.to&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=nodejs_june2026 Who is this for? Beginners who know basic JavaScript Anyone tired of fragmented tutorials Students in Pakistan/India looking for free resources I'm building in public at 16. If this helps you, follow me here – I'll be posting my next guide (Frontend Roadmap 2026) next week. What topic should I cover next? Drop it in comments. Originally published on ZabiTech Community
