Two Months into Maintaining a MinIO Fork

Two months after forking MinIO, pgsty/minio ships patches for four CVEs and related security issues. No new features, just working builds, a restored console, and timely security fixes.

Palantir's 'Ontology' Hustle

Ontology is database modeling. The word's only function is to make people who don't understand databases think they're looking at something new — and happily pay a thousand times more for something old.

MinIO Is Dead, Long Live MinIO

MinIO's repo is officially archived and abandoned. And how AI Agents helped bring MinIO back from the dead.

When Coding Becomes Cheap, What Still Matters?

Codex 5.3 xHigh pushed my workflow past a tipping point: writing code is no longer the scarce resource. The real leverage is design quality and engineering acceptance. This is the practical loop I use to ship reliable software with AI agents.

The Agent Moat: Runtime

A mediocre local who knows the terrain beats a genius parachuted into unknown territory. Intelligence without context is idle. An agent without a runtime is vapor.

AI Ripped the Skin Off Software

Software stocks are melting down. Who survives? Who rises? AI stripped away software's skin, exposing the database skeleton underneath. The market isn't panic-selling — it's repricing.

The Great Software Meltdown: When Translation Layers Get Squashed

SaaS and workflow software are dead. From APPs & GUIs to Agents, Databases, and CLI.

Agent OS: We're Building DOS Again

LLM = CPU. Context = RAM. Database = Disk. Agent = App. The mapping is surprisingly clean. And if OS history is any guide, we may know what comes next — and what's still missing.
