Most advice on working with agents focuses on orchestration and interaction strategies.

Many agentic coding demos showcase landing pages, one-off scripts, or greenfield projects.

Claude Code fit well into my workflow, but sticking to Test-Driven Development (TDD) principles still needed occasional reminders: one test at a time, fail first, no over-implementation.

Since I started programming, I've insisted on always writing my own code.

I have been using Large Language Models (LLMs) for the last two years.

Introduction Throughout this series, we've explored Durable Entities from the ground up: managing state, creating entities, signaling, cross-communication, and two-way interactions.

Introduction So far, we have built a solid foundation for Durable Entities in Kotlin.

Introduction So far, we have built stateful entities that persist data and respond dynamically to external input through signaling.

Introduction So far, we have implemented signaling to interact with entities dynamically, allowing our counter to respond to operations like increment and reset.

Introduction So far, we have created an entity that stores state using custom status, but it remains static.

Introduction So far, we have seen how Durable Entities persist state across executions and conserve resources.

Introduction Durable Entities provide a way to model long-lived, stateful objects in serverless workflows, but they aren't natively supported in Kotlin.

I've been fortunate to work with some of the greatest minds early in my career, an opportunity I'm endlessly grateful for.

Static sites are perceived as more secure than their dynamic counterparts due to their simplicity and lack of server-side components.

Integrating automation into development workflows has become crucial in recent years.

Two years ago, I got to dive into a project at the intersection of machine learning and hardware - right before ChatGPT became a household name and when terms like overfitting puzzled me.

In modern web development, a fine balance between performance and user-centric design is key.

Google engineers, Arvind Jain and Jason Glasgow, stated that more than 99 human years are wasted every day because of uncompressed content [1].

NGINX has recently released prebuilt binary packages for the preview NGINX QUIC+HTTP/3 implementation for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and Ubuntu 22.04.
