Modern web applications demand responsive, non-blocking user flows. This tutorial demonstrates a production-grade implementation for handling form submissions without full-page reloads using the native Fetch API and clean async/await syntax. The Complete Source Code Create a file named app.js and drop in the following event-driven architecture: JavaScript document.getElementById('registrationForm').addEventListener('submit', async (event) => { event.preventDefault(); // 1. Stop full page reload const form = event.target; const formData = new FormData(form); const submitBtn = form.querySelector('button[type="submit"]'); const responseMessage = document.getElementById('responseMessage'); // 2. UI Feedback: Disable button during network request submitBtn.disabled = true; submitBtn.textContent = 'Processing...'; responseMessage.textContent = ''; try { // 3. Asynchronous Fetch Request const response = await fetch(form.action, { method: 'POST', body: formData, headers: { 'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest' } }); // 4. Status Code Validation if (!response.ok) { throw new Error(`HTTP error! Status: ${response.status}`); } const result = await response.json(); // 5. Dynamic UI State Handling if (result.success) { responseMessage.style.color = '#155724'; responseMessage.textContent = result.message; form.reset(); // Clear form on success } else { responseMessage.style.color = '#721c24'; responseMessage.textContent = result.error || 'Submission failed.'; } } catch (error) { // 6. Global Error Catching responseMessage.style.color = '#721c24'; responseMessage.textContent = 'A network error occurred. Please try again.'; console.error('Submission tracking error:', error); } finally { // 7. Reset UI State Guaranteed submitBtn.disabled = false; submitBtn.textContent = 'Submit Data Securely'; } }); The Problem with Synchronous Form Lifecycles Traditional submissions trigger a synchronous navigation cycle: the browser constructs a payload, issues a full HTTP request, and replaces the

This is a submission for DEV's Summer Bug Smash: Clear the Lineup powered by Sentry . Project Overview Formbricks is an open-source survey and experience management platform built with Next.js, TypeScript, React, and Tailwind CSS. It lets teams create and deploy surveys across websites, apps, and email. Developers can self-host it or use the cloud version. With over 12,000 GitHub stars and hundreds of contributors, it is one of the most actively maintained open source alternatives to Qualtrics. Bug Fix or Performance Improvement Formbricks supports custom regex validation rules on survey questions. A survey creator can set a pattern that user responses must match before they are accepted. The problem was in how that pattern was stored. The validation schema for regex pattern rules only checked that the input was a non-empty string: // Before the fix export const ZValidationRuleParamsPattern = z . object ({ pattern : z . string (). min ( 1 ), flags : z . string (). optional (), }); z.string().min(1) means "give me any string with at least one character." It does not verify that the string is actually a valid regular expression. So a survey creator could type [invalid as their pattern, the schema would accept it, it would be saved to the database, and then when a real user submitted a response, the system would try to run new RegExp("[invalid") , JavaScript would throw a SyntaxError , and the survey would crash silently at runtime. The bug never surfaced during setup. It only appeared when a real user was trying to submit a real response. Code Pull Request: github.com/Tobore005/formbricks/pull/1 Here is the fix: const isValidRegexPattern = ( pattern : string ): boolean => { try { new RegExp ( pattern ); return true ; } catch { return false ; } }; const isValidRegexFlags = ( flags : string | undefined ): boolean => { if ( flags === undefined ) return true ; try { new RegExp ( "" , flags ); return true ; } catch { return false ; } }; export const ZValidationRuleParamsPa

Tres semanas después de publicar un sitemap dinámico que orgullosamente listaba cada perfil de miembro, Google Search Console me dijo que esos perfiles eran un error. No con un error de plano, sino con dos veredictos más callados: Soft 404 y Duplicada sin canónica seleccionada por el usuario . Esta es la historia de leer ese reporte, separar el ruido de la única señal real, y el arreglo, que fue quitar páginas del índice, no agregarlas. TL;DR El reporte "Por qué las páginas no se indexan" de Google es ~80% benigno por diseño. Aprende a triarlo o vas a perseguir fantasmas. Mis perfiles de miembros salieron marcados como Soft 404 (uno) y Duplicada sin canónica seleccionada por el usuario (otro). La misma causa raíz: el perfil público anónimo es deliberadamente flaco, un esqueleto con el username, todo lo demás es PII oculta a quien no ha iniciado sesión. Flaco + casi idéntico entre usuarios se lee como "página vacía" y "clúster de duplicados". No puedes arreglar un Soft 404 enriqueciendo una página que por contrato no tienes permitido enriquecer. Así que el arreglo es noindex,follow en la captura, más sacar las URLs del sitemap (un sitemap que lista una URL noindex es una autocontradicción que Google va a señalar). El modelo mental en una línea: una página que a propósito no tiene contenido para los visitantes anónimos no tiene nada que hacer en un índice construido para visitantes anónimos. El reporte que lo empezó todo El reporte de cobertura del índice, ordenado por número de páginas: Razón Fuente Páginas Descubierta, actualmente sin indexar Sistemas de Google 55 Duplicada sin canónica seleccionada por el usuario Sitio web 9 Página alternativa con etiqueta canónica correcta Sitio web 3 Página con redirección Sitio web 2 Rastreada, actualmente sin indexar Sistemas de Google 2 Soft 404 Sitio web 1 Excluida por etiqueta 'noindex' Sitio web 1 No encontrada (404) Sitio web 1 Bloqueada por acceso prohibido (403) Sitio web 1 Noventa y tantas URLs "sin indexar".

Optimizing RAG at Scale: Chunking, Retrieval, and the Bayesian Search That Cut Latency 40% How we moved from "semantic search + hope" to a measured, tunable retrieval pipeline with 95% recall@10 The RAG Reality Check Everyone ships RAG the same way: chunk by 512 tokens, embed with text-embedding-3-small , top-k=5, stuff into context. It works for demos. Then you hit production: Legal contracts: 512 tokens splits clauses mid-sentence API docs: 1000-token chunks drown signal in noise Customer tickets: Conversational context needs overlap, not fixed windows Latency: 500ms embedding + 200ms vector search + 300ms LLM = 1s+ per query We rebuilt our retrieval layer from first principles.

Building Production-Grade LLM Evaluation Pipelines: From Vibes to Metrics How we replaced "looks good to me" with automated evaluation catching 92% of hallucinations before deployment The Problem: Why "Vibe Checks" Fail in Production Three months ago, our team shipped a RAG-based customer support assistant. It worked great in testing — we'd ask it questions, read the answers, and say "yeah, that looks right." Then it hit production. A customer asked about their billing cycle. The assistant confidently cited a policy that didn't exist. Another asked about API rate limits and got numbers from a competitor's documentation. By the time we caught it, 500+ users had seen hallucinated responses. The post-mortem was brutal: we had zero automated evaluation . Our test process was literally "ask 5 questions, read answers, thumbs up." What Production Evaluation Actually Needs Academic benchmarks (MMLU, HellaSwag) don't tell you if your system works for your use case. Production evaluation needs: Domain-specific judges — Your criteria, not generic "helpfulness" Speed — Evaluation must run in CI/CD, not overnight Regression detection — Know immediately when a prompt change breaks things CI/CD integration — Block merges that degrade quality Golden dataset management — Versioned, stratified, growing test cases Architecture: The Evaluation Pipeline ┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌────────────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │ Test Cases │────▶│ LLM Under │────▶│ Judge Ensemble │────▶│ Metrics & │ │ (Golden Set)│ │ Test │ │ - Faithfulness │ │ Regression │ └─────────────┘ └──────────────┘ │ - Instruction F. │ │ Detection │ │ - JSON Schema │ └──────┬───────┘ │ - Custom LLM │ ▼ └────────────────────┘ ┌──────────────┐ │ Dashboard/ │ │ PR Comments │ └──────────────┘ Core Abstractions # eval/base.py @dataclass ( frozen = True ) class TestCase : id : str input : dict [ str , Any ] expected : dict [ str , Any ] | None = None tags : list [ str ] = field ( default_factory = list ) # ["edge-case",

Some commands you can walk back. Terminating an EC2 instance is not one of them. Day 14 paired a recoverable problem, a web server knocked over by a rogue process, with an unrecoverable one, deleting a server on purpose, and the contrast is the whole lesson. One Linux task, one AWS task. Track down the process blocking Apache and restore the service, then terminate an EC2 instance and confirm it is gone. The tasks come from the KodeKloud Engineer platform. httpd: diagnose in order, then restore When httpd will not start, resist the urge to guess. Work in order. Start with what the service itself reports: # What does httpd think is wrong systemctl status httpd systemctl start httpd The status output usually names the problem, and a failed bind on the port is the classic one. Before assuming a rogue process, check that httpd's own config is sane, because a wrong port or hostname produces the same "won't start" symptom: # Check the configured listen port and server name grep -i listen /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf # Fix the ServerName directive if it is wrong: ServerName hostname:<port> If the config is fine and the port is genuinely taken, then you go hunting for the process holding it: # Find the PID on the conflicting port sudo su - yum install -y net-tools netstat -tulpn # Clear it, then bring httpd back kill -9 <PID> systemctl enable httpd systemctl start httpd systemctl status httpd kill -9 is SIGKILL, the instant, no-cleanup kill. It is the right tool when a process is wedged and ignoring a polite request, but as a default habit, it is worth trying a plain kill first. The order that matters here is diagnostic: config before process, gentle signal before forceful one. Rushing to kill -9 at the first sign of trouble is how you mask the real cause instead of fixing it. Terminating EC2: the command with no undo Day 9 was about protecting an instance from termination. Day 14 is the other side of that lever, actually terminating one, on purp

My Zero to Blockchain Engineer journey — Week 2 update Last week I announced I was teaching myself blockchain engineering from zero. This week I went deep into Cyfrin Updraft — and I have to be honest, it changed how I think about learning Web3. Here's everything I covered, what surprised me, and why I think this platform is the best free resource for anyone serious about becoming a blockchain developer. What I covered this week I'm currently 45% through the Blockchain Basics course on Cyfrin Updraft. Here's exactly what the lessons covered: Section 1 — What Is A Blockchain? This section answered the question properly — not in a surface-level way, but by starting with the problem blockchain solves. The lesson on centralized control hit differently. Think about it in a Nigerian context — banks freezing accounts, payment processors blocking transactions, elections where results can't be independently verified. These aren't hypothetical problems. They're things we live with. Blockchain's answer: a shared ledger where truth is verified by math, not by a middleman. That framing made everything click for me. Key lessons I completed: What Is A Blockchain — centralized problems vs decentralized solutions History Of Blockchain — from the double-spend problem to Bitcoin to Ethereum Benefits Of Blockchain — permissionless, immutable, credibly neutral Use Cases — DeFi, cross-border payments, DAOs, digital ownership Many Many Chains — L1s, L2s, Mainnets vs Testnets The Oracle Problem — why smart contracts can't access real-world data alone The Purpose Of Smart Contracts — math-based promises vs trust-based agreements What Is The EVM — Ethereum's computation engine explained simply Benefits Of Smart Contracts — decentralization, immutability, transparency Section 2 — Sending Transactions This is where things got hands-on — and where Cyfrin pulled ahead of every other platform I've tried. Key lessons: What Is A Wallet — your public address as a digital mailbox Setting Up A Wallet

The security officer said no. Not "maybe with some modifications." Not "let us review the data handling policy." No. Cloud-hosted AI code review was not going to happen in their environment. The codebase contained classified material. The network was air-gapped. No data leaves the building. End of conversation. This was a defence contractor. Their development team was writing code that couldn't touch any external API, any cloud service, any SaaS platform. But they were also writing 200,000+ lines of code per year with a team that was struggling to maintain review quality across twelve engineers, the exact problem that AI code review solves. The challenge: deploy AI code review capability that runs entirely on-premise, in an air-gapped network, with no external connectivity, while meeting the security and compliance requirements of a classified computing environment. This is the guide we wish existed when we started that project. It covers hardware requirements, model selection, inference server setup, CI/CD integration and the security architecture that made it pass the compliance review. Why air-gapped AI code review is different from everything else Most AI code review guides assume cloud connectivity. The model runs on the provider's infrastructure. The code is sent via API. The review comes back. The security question is about data handling policies, encryption in transit and vendor trust. In an air-gapped environment, none of that applies. The model runs on hardware you control. The code never leaves your network. There is no vendor to trust because there is no vendor in the loop. This sounds simpler from a security perspective. In some ways it is. In other ways it's significantly more complex because you're now responsible for the entire stack, model selection, quantisation, inference hardware, deployment, monitoring, updating and maintaining the system that in a cloud deployment is someone else's problem. Hardware requirements The hardware question is the fir

I regularly lose time to terminal muscle memory. I work across Windows and Unix-like shells, so I will remember the right command in the wrong environment, transpose a Git subcommand, or use a valid binary with an invalid subcommand. The fix is usually easy to find. The interruption is the costly part: stop, search, translate the answer back into the current shell, and try again. The idea is not new. There are projects that help with failed commands, as well as terminal-integrated LLMs such as aichat. However, I wanted something that does one thing well: fix commands in a seamless workflow powered by an LLM. I wanted a deliberately narrow tool: when a command fails, suggest the command I probably meant, let me inspect it, and run it only after confirmation. During a Fable promotion period, I used an LLM coding agent to see how far a well-scoped prompt could get me. With very little steering, it produced a usable Go prototype in roughly an hour. The project is now open source: nudge . The workflow I wanted The core interaction is intentionally small: Run a command as usual. If it fails, type fix (or bare nudge ) to get a suggested correction. Review it, then press Enter to run, e to edit it first, or n to cancel. The cheapest case is a plain typo, which never reaches a model at all: PS> git pshu git: 'pshu' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. PS> fix `git pshu` isn't a valid command. Did you mean: → git push (typo fix for `git pshu`) Run it? [Enter = yes / n = no / e = edit] The (typo fix for ...) label is the tool telling me it answered locally, in under 10 ms, without a network call. The cross-shell version of the same mistake is reaching for a binary that does not exist here. Because the binary is missing, the shell's command-not-found hook fires and I do not have to type anything at all: PS> printenv `printenv` isn't a valid command. Did you mean: → Get-ChildItem env: (list all environment variables) Run it? [Enter = yes / n = no / e = edit] The case that act

You've got a Next.js app on one domain and your API on another. The login works, the dashboard fills up, everything looks fine. Then one day you open the Network tab and there it is: your access token, in plain text, in a request header the browser sent all by itself. At that point every line of JavaScript on the page can read it. Not just your code. The analytics snippet you added last week, the twelve transitive dependencies you've never opened, whatever an XSS bug manages to slip in. And you never really decided this. It just happened, because calling the API straight from the component was the path of least resistance, and nothing complained. The browser is not a trusted client The version that gets you here looks completely reasonable: // ❌ a Client Component talking to your API ' use client ' ; export function Profile () { useEffect (() => { fetch ( ' https://api.example.com/me ' , { headers : { authorization : `Bearer ${ token } ` }, }) . then (( r ) => r . json ()) . then ( setProfile ); }, []); } Look at what that actually signed you up for. The token is in JavaScript, so the protection an HttpOnly cookie would have given you is simply gone. The call is cross-origin, so you're now on the hook for CORS: preflight requests, an allowed-origins list to maintain, Access-Control-Allow-Credentials , and the quiet worry that you've opened it wider than you should. And because the request leaves from the browser, anyone with devtools can read your API's base URL, its routes, and how it expects to be authenticated. That's a decent map of your backend, handed out to every visitor. What makes this hard to catch is that none of it breaks. It works in the demo, it works in production, it reviews clean. It just sits there as a liability until the day it stops being quiet. The browser talks to your server. Your server talks to your API. The Backend-for-Frontend pattern draws one line: the browser only ever talks to your Next.js server. The Next.js server talks to your API.

This report analyzes pricing shifts across 35 developer tools tracked over a seven-week period from 2026-W19 to 2026-W29. We have identified 37 total pricing changes during this window, providing a clear snapshot of how platform tiers are evolving for engineering teams. GitHub Copilot’s Tier Expansion GitHub Copilot has seen significant activity in its subscription structure over the last two months. On May 25, the platform solidified its existing pricing, maintaining the Free tier at $0, Pro at $10/mo, and Pro+ at $39/mo. By June 15, the service introduced a "Max" tier priced at $100/mo. This was followed on July 12 by the addition of two enterprise-focused options: Business at $19/mo and Enterprise at $39/mo. Cursor’s Rapid Plan Iterations Cursor has undergone a series of rapid adjustments to its tiering model since late May. On May 25, the platform introduced a Free Hobby plan and a $20/mo Pro plan while removing the Individual tier. This structure was short-lived; on June 15, the platform removed both the Hobby and Pro tiers, replacing them with a single $20/mo Individual plan. As of the latest tracking, the current price for the Cursor Pro plan is listed at $20/mo. Netlify and Windsurf Pricing Shifts Infrastructure and IDE-integrated tools are also shifting their cost models. On July 12, Netlify moved its Enterprise tier from a "contact sales" model to a defined starting price of $500/month. Windsurf also saw a notable change on June 15 regarding its Teams offering. The price shifted from a flat $40/user/month to a base of $80/mo plus an additional $40/mo per seat. This follows Windsurf's earlier introduction of a Free ($0/month) tier on May 25. Vercel and Firebase Updates Platform-as-a-Service providers have focused on refining their entry-level and usage-based offerings. On May 25, Vercel added a Free Hobby plan and updated its Pro tier to $20/mo (plus additional usage). During that same week, Firebase added a Spark plan ($0) and a usage-based Blaze plan, whi

I’ve been out of context with my computer science degree for years, and honestly, it feels overwhelming. I want to change that, so I'm starting this log to document my comeback story, my failures, and my progress. What I did today: Acknowledged the starting line. Took 10 minutes to think about where I left off and what I need to tackle first. Decided to write daily logs. This is not my first attempt to finish the degree, but hopefully with some public eyes on it, it will be the last. 10 subject left. Starting with Mathematical analysis. The biggest challenge right now: Feeling completely out of context and fighting the urge to get distracted by everything else. Many things have changed since i was actively going to classes. My generation graduated many years ago and i feel like getting all the information I need will be extremely difficult since i don't know anyone. Getting information from the university websites and emailing professors will be slow. Next steps: Tomorrow, I'm going to try to overcome my overdramatic anxiety and post in the student groups I was in, in hope that somebody might have new information about the subjects. I will go start lesson #1. Goal is to ease into the material and start a habit, rather than pressuring myself to do everything at once. Come back tomorrow.

The line between editorial content and paid promotion has been eroding for years. On most major retail platforms, in countless lifestyle publications and across the breadth of social media, content that presents itself as independent assessment is frequently underwritten by the very brands being assessed. This is not a new problem, but it is a worsening one. The consequences are practical. Consumers who believe they are reading a review and acting accordingly may be making purchasing decisions on the basis of what is, in effect, an advertisement. The financial cost of that mistake is modest in most individual cases. The cumulative effect on consumer trust is not. Understanding what separates a genuine review from disguised promotional content requires more than checking for a disclosure label. It requires looking at structure, incentive, methodology and language - and recognising that some of the most effective adverts are those that most convincingly resemble reviews. What a Review Is Actually Supposed to Do A review serves one primary function: to help a reader make an informed decision about a product, service or brand. That function is incompatible with advocacy. A reviewer who is trying to help a reader decide cannot simultaneously be trying to persuade that reader to buy. This distinction sounds obvious. In practice, it collapses quickly when the person writing the review has a financial relationship with the brand, when the product was provided free of charge without conditions, or when the publication depends on advertising revenue from the sector it covers. None of those arrangements automatically invalidates the content produced. But each one creates a structural incentive that pushes in a specific direction - and that direction is rarely towards harder scrutiny. The Disclosure Problem Regulatory frameworks in the UK, including guidance from the Advertising Standards Authority and the Competition and Markets Authority, require that paid-for content be clea

Over the weekend, I participated in the OpenAI Build Week Hackathon with a simple goal: Build something I would actually use as a developer. By Friday evening, I had an idea. By Sunday, that idea became an open source project called Arcovia . It wasn't just another AI coding experiment. I wanted to solve a problem I've faced while working on large React applications for years. The Problem We have excellent tools for code quality. ESLint catches code smells. Prettier formats code. SonarQube reports issues. AI reviews code and suggests improvements. But none of them answer questions like: Is my architecture healthy? Which modules are becoming bottlenecks? Where is technical debt accumulating? Which files should I refactor first? Why did my project receive this score? Architecture is often something we discuss during code reviews or realize too late when the codebase becomes difficult to maintain. I wanted a tool that could measure architecture health before it became a problem. Introducing Arcovia Arcovia is an Architecture Intelligence tool for React and Next.js projects. Instead of generating hundreds of isolated warnings, it analyzes the project as a whole and produces an interactive HTML report. It includes: 📊 Architecture Health Score 🕸️ Dependency Graph 🎯 Architecture Hotspots 📈 Explainable Score Breakdown 🛠️ Rule-based Findings 📉 Maintenance Burden ✅ Actionable Recommendations The goal isn't to replace linting. The goal is to help developers understand the bigger picture. How It Works Internally, Arcovia follows a deterministic analysis pipeline. Project │ ▼ Scanner │ ▼ AST Parser │ ▼ Project Model │ ▼ Dependency Graph │ ▼ Rule Engine │ ▼ Score Engine │ ▼ Interactive HTML Report The analyzer currently detects things like: God Modules High Fan-In High Fan-Out Orphan Modules Large Components Deep JSX Nesting Oversized Modules Duplicate Imports Unused Exports Instead of simply reporting findings, Arcovia combines them into an explainable architecture score. Determ

This is a submission for DEV's Summer Bug Smash: Clear the Lineup , powered by Sentry . Project Overview I built LeakLens Control Room to keep AI away from the financial math. Python calculates every dollar. The optional model explains the evidence. A human decides whether to act. LeakLens is a live, functional restaurant margin-review application built with Python, SQLite, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It uses synthetic data in the public demo. The optional application narrative provider defaults to GPT-5.6, but every rate, threshold, ranking, and dollar scenario comes from deterministic code. Then a date string proved that deterministic code can still lie. I had let a raw CSV field decide which operating day counted as "current." Bug Fix or Performance Improvement The symptom LeakLens groups channel metrics by date, sorts those dates, and analyzes the last one against prior days. That works when every input is canonical ISO data such as 2026-07-09 . The loader only checked that the date field was not blank. This input slipped through: metrics = [ DailyMetric ( " 2026-7-9 " , " direct " , 500 , 250 , 0 , 0 , 125 ), DailyMetric ( " 2026-07-10 " , " direct " , 1000 , 50 , 0 , 0 , 250 ), ] July 10 is later than July 9. Python's string ordering sees something else: sorted ([ " 2026-07-10 " , " 2026-7-9 " ]) # ['2026-07-10', '2026-7-9'] LeakLens selected the final string, 2026-7-9 , as the current day. That mistake spread through the report: expected current date: 2026-07-10 actual current date: 2026-7-9 actual gross sales: 500.00 sales-loss scenario: 500.00 discount scenario: 225.00 The input had not shown a current sales collapse or discount leak. The analyzer compared the days backward and produced $725 of false scenario impact from synthetic data. For a restaurant operator, this is worse than a visible crash. A crash asks for attention. A plausible financial report can send someone to audit the wrong promotion, question the wrong manager, or change a schedule that was

TypeScript Generic Constraints in Depth: extends , keyof , and the Patterns That Prevent Runtime Errors This article was written with the assistance of AI, under human supervision and review. Most TypeScript runtime errors stem from unconstrained generics that accept anything and crash on nothing. Teams write function get<T>(obj: T, key: string) and ship code that compiles cleanly but throws Cannot read property 'undefined' of undefined in production. The compiler stays silent because the generic accepts any type and the key accepts any string—no constraint exists to prove the key belongs to the object. Generic constraints solve this by restricting what types a generic parameter can accept. The extends keyword establishes a boundary—the generic must satisfy a specific shape. The keyof operator extracts valid keys from that shape. Together they form a type-level contract that makes illegal property access unrepresentable. The corrected signature function get<T, K extends keyof T>(obj: T, key: K): T[K] proves at compile time that key exists on obj , eliminating the entire class of property-access errors. This distinction is critical. Unconstrained generics provide no safety beyond what any offers. Constrained generics encode domain rules directly into the type system, shifting entire categories of bugs left from runtime to compile time. The patterns that follow demonstrate how production codebases use extends and keyof to build type-safe APIs that fail fast during development instead of silently in production. Key Takeaways Generic constraints with extends restrict type parameters to specific shapes, preventing the compiler from accepting types that would cause runtime failures. The keyof operator extracts object keys as a union type, enabling type-safe property access when combined with extends keyof constraints.
