A real experiment with GPT-5.3 Codex, a browser game arcade, and a methodology gap nobody seems to have solved yet. Let’s be honest about the two camps developers fall into when using AI coding agents today. Camp 1: Vibe Coders. Single prompt, see what happens, iterate reactively, ship something that mostly works. Fast. Messy. Surprisingly effective for simple projects. Camp 2: Spec Driven developers. Formal requirements. Structured documentation. Change proposals. Review cycles before touching a line of code. […]

You’ve spent weeks building a sophisticated LangGraph.js agent. It can research, write, and execute complex tasks. You show it to a user, they type a prompt, and… they wait. And wait. That spinning loader is a silent killer of user engagement, turning your powerful AI into a sluggish, unresponsive tool. This is the latency gap—the frustrating chasm between a user’s action and your agent’s response. But what if the interface didn’t have to wait? What if it assumed success and […]

Hi, everyone! Today I’m going to discuss engineering of a scalable price pipeline. Every trading system consists of two major subsystems: Order Management – responsible for routing orders from clients to exchanges and managing order lifecycle. Price Distribution – collects prices from exchanges, aggregates them and distributes to clients. Both of them are equally important. Prices are needed before orders can be placed. After execution, actual data is needed to calculate risk metrics. In this article, I will focus on the price distribution subsystem. High Level […]

In any analysis project, raw tables of numbers often don’t tell the full story. Visualisations simplify complexity by transforming data into shapes that our brains can quickly understand, emphasising trends, outliers, and regime shifts that might be overlooked in raw data. This is especially vital in finance and trading, where clear visuals can uncover risks, opportunities, and patterns, directly affecting decisions on position sizing, timing, and confidence. Today, we will use FMP APIs to interpret earnings data: extracting […]

Causal discovery with latent variables is a fundamental task. Yet most existing methods rely on strong structural assumptions, such as enforcing specific indicator patterns for latents or restricting how they can interact with others. We argue that a core obstacle to a general, structural-assumption-free approach is the lack of an equivalence characterization: without knowing what can be identified, one generally cannot design methods for how to identify it. In this work, we aim to close this gap for […]

There is a quiet shift happening in software development. For decades, the most valuable skill for a developer was the ability to write code efficiently and correctly. Entire careers were built around mastering frameworks, memorizing patterns, and becoming faster at turning requirements into working software. But the rise of AI coding agents is changing that equation. Today, machines are becoming exceptionally good at the one thing developers spent years mastering: churning out code. Tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and […]

This is a different kind of post. Less philosophy, more mud and conduit. My partner and I are building a thing in the woods behind our house. It’s called Orpheus — an autonomous research station that monitors wildlife, identifies bird species, tracks corvid vocalizations, counts visitors, makes pretty charts, monitors the weather, and eventually talks back. The hardware: an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX, four cameras, four research-grade microphones, a hand-built weatherproof enclosure, and a 12-foot mast in Clare […]

When I first heard “cloud commitment insurance,” I nodded politely and had absolutely no idea what anyone was talking about. Insurance? For cloud commitments? What gets insured — the server? The discount? The contract? And who’s the insurance company here? I had several sessions with the Archera team trying to wrap my head around it. Here’s the thing that made it so confusing: their product is genuinely simple. So simple that the simplicity itself became the barrier. There […]
