On Writing
“Writing, like life itself, is a voyage of discovery. The adventure is a metaphysical one: it is a way of approaching life indirectly, of acquiring a total rather than a partial view of the universe. The writer lives between the upper and lower worlds: he takes the path in order eventually to become the path himself.”— Henry MillerFor 100s more On Writing posts, go here.The Protagonist’s Journey: An Introduction to Character-Driven Screenwriting and Storytellingis a #
This $11 adapter turned my useless old laptop into a powerful home server
Earlier this year, I found an old 2-in-1 convertible laptop in my closet that I hadn't touched in a couple of years after I cracked its screen. I'd since replaced it with a business laptop and figured the old machine wasn't good for much until I realized one day that I could just turn it into a headless home server.
Yes, your PC's Wi-Fi chip is the problem, and this $35 card is the solution
If you’ve got a desktop PC with a built-in Wi-Fi solution and you’ve been facing network issues, there’s a good chance the culprit is the Wi-Fi chip on your motherboard, especially if you’re using a budget board. The truth is that many motherboards come with subpar Wi-Fi, often because vendors want to keep prices down. That can result in random disconnects, poor per
I tried ChatGPT’s new virtual fitting room — it got the clothes right, but changed my body
ChatGPT has been pushing further into becoming a shopping assistant for a while now. You can ask it for product recommendations and it’ll find specific items, show you images, prices and links to buy them. Sometimes it’ll even add contextual details from what it knows about you, like your color preferences or budget, to help personalize its recommendations even more.I've been testing it over the past few months and I find it a strange way to shop.

AI Reshuffle: The Tech Jobs Being Cut vs The Ones Being Created
Oracle has begun its second round of layoffs this year, with as many as 3,000 affected employees reportedly in India. Product engineering teams are among the worst hit.

When one robot learns, every robot knows if they can communicate
The robots are among us. They’re carrying passengers through the streets of San Francisco, delivering parcels over the air, and working their way across farms, factories, mines, and industrial sites.The collision we’re now witnessing between artificial intelligence and the physical world is often described as “Physical AI” – machines capable of perceiving their surroundings, making decisions, and taking action among us in the real world. But every new machine that clo
Our drafted reply arrives with gaps in square brackets, and the send action refuses to send one
Nakodo runs a brand's creator outreach: it writes the first email, follows up, and answers what it can from the brand's own notes. Some questions it must not answer. A creator asking "do you want usage rights, and for how long?" is asking about something the brand has either decided or has not, and no amount of fluent writing turns a guess into a decision. Our glossary entry on usage rights exists because that question comes up constantly, and the how it works page promises the behaviour in thos

We deleted our docs framework. The replacement is 400 lines of Next.js + MDX.
TL;DRA small docs site needs 5 packages: next-mdx-remote, remark-gfm, rehype-pretty-code, shiki, gray-matter.One route (app/docs/[[...slug]]/page.tsx) serves every page via generateStaticParams.The filesystem is the CMS. No _meta.json, no sidebars.js, no manifest.We killed Contentlayer, the right-side TOC, search, and an entire docs section that described a product we don't ship.Don't copy this if you have 500+ pages, non-dev writers, i18n, or multiple shipping versions.Hot take: most docs frame

The logout loop nobody tests: treating session cleanup as a security feature
When I talk about auth with other developers, everyone asks about the login flow. Nobody asks about the logout loop. But the loose ends are where auth bugs live: the token that stays in localStorage after "logout", the role a user assigns to themselves during registration, the expired token that leaves you staring at a broken dashboard with no idea what happened.I run a small Laravel + React starter kit I sell to indie hackers, so I've had to make these decisions concretely, not theoretically.

Once everything is processed, the files need to be organized, packaged, and delivered to the client.You could handle everything manually. You could write a
I hit Notion's paywall, so I built my own note app: BH Notes
Back in 2022, I started using Notion and loved it.I loved the flexibility of nesting pages inside other pages. It did not feel like opening an old school word document just to write down an idea. It felt like a clean personal space where I could organize my thoughts and projects.Then I hit the limits on the free plan.When the paywall came up asking for hundreds of dollars a year, I could not justify it. For a developer living in Nigeria, paying that much every single year just to take notes was
