Engineering Philosophy: Bjarne Stroustrup, Abstraction Without Overhead
Bjarne Stroustrup built C++ on the zero-overhead principle: never choose between expressive code and bare-metal speed. A good abstraction costs nothing.
Engineering & CraftWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Engineering Philosophy: Rich Hickey, Simple Is Not Easy
Rich Hickey built Clojure and Datomic on one distinction: simple is not easy. Simple means un-braided, one concern per thing; easy just means familiar.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Alan Kay, The Big Idea Is Messaging
Alan Kay invented the future by changing the point of view: computing as a medium for thought, with systems built from objects communicating by messages.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Donald Knuth, Programming Is an Art
Donald Knuth treats programming as an art written to be read by humans. Measure before you cut, optimize only the critical 3%, and prove correctness with craft.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Leslie Lamport, Think Before You Code
Leslie Lamport made distributed systems a science: time is not global, causality is what is real, and you specify the design before you write the code.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Linus Torvalds, The Special Case That Disappears
Linus Torvalds defines good taste as code where the special case disappears -- the engineering conviction behind the Linux kernel, git, and \"show me the code.\
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Andrej Karpathy, The Stack You Don't Write
Andrej Karpathy reframed neural networks as Software 2.0 -- a stack compiled from data, not written by hand -- and taught a generation to build it from scratch.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: John Carmack, Performance as Moral Craft
John Carmack treats performance as a moral question. Strip to the fast, simple core, understand the problem to its foundation, ship it, and show your work.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Yukihiro Matsumoto, Designed for Humans
Matz built Ruby to make programmers happy: language as human-centered design, the principle of least surprise, and a community that became a design output.
Engineering & CraftWhen the Maintainer Is the Attacker: jqwik 1.10.0
jqwik 1.10.0 emits a destructive prompt-injection string in Maven output. ANSI escapes hide it from humans. The maintainer added it on purpose.
AI & TechnologyLoopback Is Not a Trust Boundary: CVE-2026-2611
MLflow 3.9.0's Assistant exposed a local AI agent on /ajax-api with no CORS check. Any webpage could take over Claude Code. The bug is older than MLflow.
AI & TechnologyAI Malware Analysis Needs Evidence Packets
AI malware analysis needs evidence packets: hashes, commands, indicators, and claim-to-evidence trails matter more than confident agent summaries.
