TIL that many API keys today are prefixed "sk" because Stripe used to have them unprefixed and many people leaked them in logs, so a prefix "pk_" for public key and "sk_" for private helped with filtering. Somehow I always took that for granted and not as a fact of software evolution
Made my first coding agent. Not sure if I have better understanding of them now or the opposite - https://zserge.com/posts/socreates/ #llm #deepseek #coding #golang
A non-coding coding agent

Building a minimal coding agent in Go, the one that reviews your code and your decisions but never writes code itself.

Finished a small educational project: https://zserge.com/posts/pennybase - a toy clone of Firebase/Supabase/Pocketbase. In 700 lines of Go with zero dependencies it has dynamic record schemas, reasonably fast "document store" using CSV files, orthogonal REST APIs + realtime watch over SSE, authNZ with simple RBAC, pluggable hooks.
Enough to build a real-time chat app or a management system. Works well with HTMX and Go templates.
Not for serious use, of course! #golang #backend #baas #firebase #rest #csv

Building yet another single-file backend as a service. As always, we focus on simplicity, but nevertheless we try to implement as many features as we can without making it too complex.

People like to think Asimov predicted the current technology known as "artificial intelligence". They are wrong. It was Douglas Adams when a computer spent untold resources just to return an answer which is both irrelevant and poses further questions.
UNIX includes a command to deal with your cat walking on your keyboard. When your cat is coming, you just type "cat" and press enter, and your cat's input won't mess anything up.

this is not a joke? 🇩🇪😱
