Build and Deploy a Remote MCP Server to GKE in 30 Minutes

Google walks you through shipping a remoteMCP serveronGKE AutopilotusingFastMCPandstreamable-http, swapping localstdiofor shared HTTP endpoints. The clever bit: theGateway APIhandles managed SSL plusCLIENT_IP session affinity, so one centralized server beats everyone running redundant local copies... read more

The unwritten laws of software engineering

- Always related - first rollback, then debug. - Backups aren’t real until restored. - You’ll hate yourself for bad logs. - ALWAYS have a rollback plan. - Every external dependency will fail. - If there's risk, use the “4 eyes” rule. - Nothing lasts like a temporary fix... read more

Everything a Senior Engineer Needs to Know About What's Inside an LLM

The shift from RNNs totransformerssolved sequential bottlenecks and long-range decay issues withself-attention. Transformers use encoding, decoding, and tokenization to process sequences efficiently and accurately. This evolution led to models like GPT, which excel at tasks with minimal fine-tuning .. read more

Building in the Age of Collaborative Coding

The speed of innovation is crucial for teams, and AI tools have enabled faster work. A collaborative coding model where teams build, review, and ship alongside AI agents is key to staying ahead in workflows. Three shifts have reshaped how teams build, leading to the adoption of a new collaborative c.. read more  

Building in the Age of Collaborative Coding
TruffleHog is a high-accuracy secret-detection tool designed to uncover exposed credentials such as API keys, tokens, private keys, and cloud secrets across large codebases. Originally created to scan Git commit history, it has evolved into a multi-source scanning engine capable of analyzing GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Docker images, file systems, Terraform states, and cloud environments.

The scanner combines entropy detection, an extensive library of regular expression detectors, and live credential validation to minimize false positives. TruffleHog is widely used in security research, supply chain security, DevSecOps workflows, and bug bounty programs. Its speed, accuracy, and broad ecosystem coverage make it a core tool for identifying and preventing credential leakage in modern software development.
