There are plenty of screen recording options for Ubuntu. I use Simple Screen Recorder, but there are many others. But none of them have a built-in way of getting a little window that shows you (like from your webcam) in the video. Sometimes this is called the “picture in p…
MySQL 5.7 has sharding built-in through MySQL Fabric (Lab Release). And, MySQL has scaled the marketing team to handle 500.000 customer requests/s – or, was it MySQL 5.7 query throughput? Whatever. MySQL Fabric frees you from implementing sharding yourself. MySQL Fabric si…
PHP has several built-in ways of serializing/unserializing data. The most cross-platform is json_encode; pretty much every programming stack can JSON decode data that has been encoded by any other stack. There's also PHP's native serialize function, which is not as cross-platfor…

When building a project with Neo4j or most other graph databases, it is impossible to avoid learning about Tinkerpop's excellent Gremlin graph processing language. The processing layer of Gremlin is built on top of Pipes, a dataflow programming library. I was inspired by the syn…

I’ve been working on a system for a while now, inspired by the work that was done on the Sentry project, to provide a role-based access control system that was not only more well-maintained but also built on the foundation they provided to add in some new features. My R…
For years, PhpStorm has been the go-to IDE for PHP developers – powerful and deeply integrated with the language. But there was one thing many kept asking for: Laravel support out of the box. It should come with built-in— Amdadul Haq (@amdad121) July 30, 2025 Starting with…
PhpStorm comes with a ton of built-in features, and you can add even more with plugins. They bring new languages, tools, and small improvements that make everyday coding smoother. Many of the best ones come from independent developers. One of them is Dmitrii Derepko, who built s…
Every developer has tools they rely on daily. The workflows they’ve built around them, the ways they’ve learned to move faster, debug smarter, and write better code – that kind of hands-on experience can be hard to put into words. We’re collaborating with LinkedIn to…
A Laravel package by Devifyo that combines scheduled tasks, queues, jobs, and exceptions into one production dashboard — with bulk retries, on-demand task runs, and error resolution built in. The post Monitor and Control Schedules, Queues, and Errors in Laravel with Watchtower a…

My blog was always based on some home-grown CMS I built during my studies in.. checks CV 2007-2008. This was mostly fine but it had no markdown support and it was one more server to manage. I would like to try and write some more content here again so I figured I should get this…
I am a long term tmux + neovim enthusiast, and for the last 10 or so years, I’ve been using vim-plug to manage my vim dependencies. I recently learned that very similar functionality was added to neovim core. The vim.pack interface provides a built-in package manager for vim plu…
When you’re debugging production issues at 3 AM, the last thing you want is to scroll through thousands of CloudWatch log entries trying to find that one error. I’ve built a CLI tool that uses AWS Bedrock (Claude Sonnet 4.5) to analyze CloudWatch logs intelligently. You ask ques…
What if you could describe the music you want to hear and have an AI produce it in real-time, sending MIDI notes directly to your DAW? That’s exactly what I built: a Python application that uses AI agents to generate Eurobeat and 90s techno patterns, outputting them as live MIDI…
For decades, software engineering had a predictable way of training engineers. You learned the syntax. You built small systems. You joined a team as a junior. And over years of working close to production, you slowly built judgment. That path is now breaking — not…
For decades, software engineering was built around one core assumption: humans could understand software by reading the source code. That assumption shaped almost everything in engineering: The model was simple. A developer wrote code. Another developer reviewed it. Teams truste…

Note This post was originally published on DEV. I’ve cloned and built php-src numerous times over the years, on a variety of platforms, but I’ve never worked with it in an IDE. A long-time Vim user, I’ve only begun using PhpStorm over the last year and a half, after seeing how I…

For as long as I’ve built software, the contract was the same: humans operate interfaces, interfaces operate systems. Agents break that chain. More and more, software is being operated by software — you describe what you want, an agent goes and does it, and the interface y…
Joomla's built-in search has always had the same fundamental limitation. It is keyword-based. A visitor types "how do I reset my account" and the search engine looks for articles containing those exact words. If your article uses the phrase "recover your login credentials" inste…

Drupal's body field has a built-in summary subfield that almost nobody fills in properly. On high-volume editorial sites I've worked on, it's either blank, copy-pasted from the first paragraph, or written by someone who clearly didn't read the article. It shows up in teasers, RS…

Faceted search or faceted navigation is a highly praised and widely use search pattern. And, it is a great reply to an off the records sales engineering question. MySQL finally has some document store features built-in. A bit of a yawn in 2016. There is a new X DevAPI available …

The Way Back Machine, part of the Internet Archive, backs up the web for us. As websites come, change, and go it provides access to that rich history. But, many sites are built in a manner that doesn't backup the information well or at all. This leads to lost history. Below is a…
Most PHP developers never think about how PHP is built. They download it or install it using a command or a pre-built image and get started with their work. That is exactly how it should feel. A build system is doing its job when the final result looks great and works as expecte…
