The first post went over some of its capabilities. Over the past week Edict went v1.0, adding cursors for reading projections after command dispatch (to close some eventual-consistency gaps), a new type of projection that holds state inside the Orleans grain directly instead of a table, saga timeouts, schedules, an improved skills package and MCP server that ships with Edict, and more. Edict has now grown to over 75,000 lines of code and more than 1000 tests, and contains several deep mechanisms that have been fixed, broken, and fixed again. It is well past the point where I can hold all of Edict in my head. This post is about working with AI on large codebases, which I expect to be the first problem most software engineers have to solve. The context problem Years ago I was talking to a PhD candidate whose area of research was Natural Language Processing (NLP). He explained to me that one of the most difficult NLP problems was context. If a colleague says they need to pop out to pick their kids up from school, a scene can form in your head: one with a school, the layout of the road, people waiting, walking, driving, the environs. You may never have seen the school your colleague mentioned, but you can form a rich scene from your accumulated experience and use it to drive the rest of the conversation with a shared understanding. LLMs ingeniously dodge this entire issue by making it your problem. Just a word-probability machine Strip away the chat window and a Large Language Model (LLM) is doing one thing: predicting the next token. Give it a run of text and it returns a probability distribution over what comes next, samples one, appends it, and repeats. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic then beat it into shape using techniques like supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning, which tune those probabilities in meaningful ways. That is why Claude is always telling me "Good framing" or "You've spotted...". It even called me "Bold" on one occasion. The probabilit

Something I keep noticing across teams and orgs that are actually getting value from AI versus the ones that aren't. The difference rarely comes down to the model or the algorithm. Most organizations are already drowning in data. Logs, metrics, alerts, reports, dashboards, tickets. The information exists. The bottleneck is what happens after the data shows up. How long does it take to interpret what the signal means? Who decides what to prioritize when three things need attention at once? How fast can the right people coordinate a response once a decision is made? That's where AI actually earns its keep. Not by replacing the human in the loop but by compressing the time between something happening and someone doing something useful about it. Signal to understanding to action. That's the chain that matters. Think about it in terms you deal with every day. A vulnerability gets disclosed. The CVE exists, the advisory is public, your scanner picked it up. None of that is the bottleneck. The bottleneck is figuring out which of your services are affected, who owns them, how bad the exposure actually is in your specific context, and getting a patch scheduled before someone exploits it. AI that helps you answer those questions in minutes instead of days is genuinely valuable. AI that and adds another dashboard to look at isn't. This applies across the board. Incident response, infrastructure management, risk assessment, customer systems, operational workflows. The teams getting real value aren't the ones with the fanciest models. They're the ones who figured out where their decision bottlenecks actually are and pointed AI at those specific gaps. The strategic advantage is rarely in the algorithm. It's in organizational responsiveness. How fast can you go from "something happened" to "we're handling it". The AI is just the thing that compresses that timeline. Where's the biggest decision bottleneck in your current workflow?

When developers think about privacy, they often think about legal compliance, consent banners, or policy pages. But privacy starts much earlier than that, at the API layer. Every time your backend asks for a phone number, date of birth, location, or optional profile field, you are making a design decision. If you collect too much data by default, you increase risk, reduce trust, and make your system harder to maintain. The good news is that privacy by design does not have to make your product worse. In many cases, it makes your API cleaner, safer, and easier to reason about. Why collecting less data matters The more data you collect, the more you have to protect. That means more storage, more access control, more breach risk, more compliance burden, and more user distrust if something goes wrong. A developer friendly privacy approach is simple: Only collect what you need to deliver value. Bad pattern: collecting everything up front user_profile = { " name " : " Amina " , " email " : " amina@example.com " , " phone " : " 07000000000 " , " dob " : " 1995-01-01 " , " address " : " 123 Main Street " , " location " : " Lagos " , " gender " : " female " } This kind of structure is common in early stage products. The thinking is usually: let us ask for everything now, just in case we need it later. But just in case is not a good privacy strategy. Better pattern: collect only what is required def build_profile ( name , email , phone = None ): profile = { " name " : name , " email " : email } if phone is not None : profile [ " phone " ] = phone return profile user_profile = build_profile ( " Amina " , " amina@example.com " ) print ( user_profile ) This is small, but the principle matters. Optional data should stay optional unless it is truly needed. Use explicit field validation Instead of accepting a giant payload and filtering it later, validate the exact fields you expect. ALLOWED_FIELDS = { " name " , " email " , " phone " } def sanitize_payload ( payload ): return { k :

I built a CLI called git-archaeologist to analyze ownership concentration, bus factor, coupling, and change history from git repositories. To validate it, I benchmarked 26 major open source projects including Kubernetes, React, VS Code, TensorFlow, PostgreSQL, Spring Boot, and Node.js. The report includes methodology, limitations, repository snapshots, raw JSON outputs, and benchmark data. Happy to hear where the methodology is wrong or what could be improved. submitted by /u/Some_Scientist5385 [link] [留言]

👋 Hey there, Tech Enthusiasts! I'm Sarvar, a Cloud Architect who loves turning complex tech problems...

Your EDR sees everything. Process launches, thread injections, DLL loads, filesystem writes. It has eyes inside the kernel — little hooks that fire before anything consequential happens, passing information up to the agent, letting it decide whether to block or alert. Now imagine something reaches into that kernel and quietly removes the hooks. No crash. No blue screen. No alert. The EDR process is still running, the dashboard still shows healthy, but the inputs it depends on are just gone. This is part of windows internals I've been exploring — understanding how systems actually behave under the hood, not just how tools interact with them. That's not a Windows bug. That's a trust problem. BYOVD doesn't exploit Windows — it exploits trust. Ring 0 vs Ring 3 — The Boundary That Matters Windows splits execution into privilege levels. Your applications, your malware, your EDR agent — they all run in Ring 3, user mode. The kernel runs in Ring 0. In my previous posts, I focused on how processes and execution work from an attacker's perspective. This goes one layer deeper — into the kernel where those assumptions start to break. This isn't just organizational. The CPU enforces it. Ring 3 code cannot directly read kernel memory. It cannot call kernel functions. Every interaction goes through a controlled interface — syscalls — and the kernel decides whether to honor each request. This is why typical malware stays loud. It has to use syscalls. Syscalls can be intercepted and monitored. At Ring 0, security tools are just data structures. Get code running in the kernel and those data structures become writable. The callback tables EDRs rely on, the hook registrations, the minifilter stack — all of it is reachable, readable, modifiable. A Quick Personal Note on Why This Boundary Matters Early on when I was messing around with kernel concepts, I tried doing something simple from user mode — reading a memory address that I knew belonged to a kernel structure. The kind of thing th

Navigating the tech space today often feels like walking a tightrope between two extremes: massive corporate monopolies holding all the keys, and idealistic local projects trying to build everything from scratch. But this doesn't have to be an "Us vs. Corporations" battle. We don’t need to completely eliminate corporate tools; we need to leverage them. The real pragmatic goal is to use localized, decentralized data-driven systems to solve real-world physical problems on the ground, in real time. When people hear the word "decentralized," they often assume it means chaotic fragmentation, isolation, or losing control of data. It doesn't. Decentralization does not mean losing data; it means movement. In fact, the paradox of modern tech is that More Decentralized Data = Centralized Utility. 1. Moving Beyond "App Consumption" to Localized Edge Data For too long, the cultural conversation around tech has been stuck in the clouds. We talk about "the cloud" abstractly, and the average consumer's tech vocabulary is limited to a handful of corporate app names. True tech pragmatism brings data collection back down to earth, turning communities from passive consumers into active, node-operating contributors. Here is what that looks like in practice: Hyper-Local Climate Grids: Instead of teaching students about weather patterns using generic data from an airport weather station 50 miles away, a school can deploy its own low-cost local weather station. Students learn from their immediate microclimate, and that real-time local data is fed back into a wider community grid. Optimized Infrastructure: Instead of spending millions on speculative traffic studies, we can use existing, low-cost edge cameras to count traffic patterns locally. This decentralized edge data tells planners exactly what kind of infrastructure—like traffic lights (or "robots" as we call them here) or bypass lanes—a specific zone actually needs. It is planning based on true utility, not guesswork. The Energy Grid
