Bridging technical depth and usability: The story behind Radar’s redesign (opens on the source site)
We redesigned Cloudflare Radar to make real-time global traffic and outage data accessible to a wider audience — including journalists, less technical researchers, and everyday users. By introducing an interactive map and standardized components, we simplified navigation while preserving technical depth.
10 technical talks I’m excited about at GitHub Universe 2026 (opens on the source site)
From verifying AI-written code to securing npm dependencies, these are the sessions I’m building my Universe agenda around. The post 10 technical talks I’m excited about at GitHub Universe 2026 appeared first on The GitHub Blog.
How AI Let a Non-Technical Delivery Lead Work in the Data Layer (opens on the source site)
As a delivery lead, data-layer troubleshooting has historically been developer work: SQL fluency, comfort operating in a production database, and the confidence to investigate without breaking anything. For an accounting-based client, when their data didn’t reconcile or make sense, that question went to a developer. AI changed that for me in one engagement this year. […] The post How AI Let a Non-Technical Delivery Lead Work in the Data Layer appeared first on Atomic Spin.
Your Vulnerability Backlog Is No Longer Technical Debt, It’s an Attack Surface (opens on the source site)

A growing vulnerability backlog is more than technical debt: it is an attack surface. Learn why outdated risk assumptions, automated attackers, and chained findings demand a new approach.
Using AI Effectively in Technical Writing (opens on the source site)
I write a lot, and I use AI a lot. But AI does not write my blog posts. Mostly. AI is useful for making some of my writing less tedious. Recently, I asked GitHub Copilot CLI to read a few dozen posts from this blog and derive a VOICE.md to assist my writing. The result is now checked into this repo and linked from AGENTS.md, so any AI agent working here gets the same reminder: this blog is authored by me, not by AI and the agent’s job is to help me rather than pretend to be me. The useful and interesting part of VOICE.md was how it captured my weirdly specific patterns. Start with a real…
AI-assisted genealogy, a follow-up (opens on the source site)
I got a lot of feedback on my post AI-assisted genealogy, some good, some not so good. In any case, I felt the subject was interesting to a lot of people. Meanwhile, I continue working on my tree, and I have deepened my understanding of the subject. In this post, I want to share again. Trust, but verify Let’s address the not-so-good feedback first. The gist of it was: AI can hallucinate. It’s true in theory: when you ask a question, it provides any answer.

AI-assisted genealogy (opens on the source site)
My son recently came to me to brag about using AI to find our ancestors. While the results were correct, I didn’t learn anything new, as it stopped at my grandparents. I was never very interested in my genealogy, but I decided to see if AI would be a good tool for this. TL;DR: Yes, it is, and even more than that. In a little less than one month, I managed to gather more than 600 individuals and get back 12 generations in some branches.
GitHub agentic workflows and Renovate (opens on the source site)
I’ve been a big fan of Renovate for a couple of years already. Renovate scans your repositories, detects outdated package versions, and opens pull requests to automatically bump them. It’s similar to Dependabot in that it keeps your dependencies up to date. If I had to compare them in one sentence, I’d say Renovate is less integrated in the GitHub ecosystem, but handles more ecosystems and, more importantly, is extensible.
Two nasty surprises in Home Assistant's config (opens on the source site)
Last year, I motorized the rolling shutters on the southern façade of my apartment. My idea was to manage them via Home Assistant. I had a couple of automations in mind: In the evening, roll down the shutters of my bedroomIn the morning:If it’s too hot outside, roll down all shuttersIf it’s too cold outside, roll down all shuttersIn other cases, roll up all shutters but my bedroom’s Living in France, I added the official Météo France integration.
As Engineering Teams get smaller, is the Technical Program Manager the missing piece? (opens on the source site)
As AI shrinks engineering teams and the EM role splits in two, the Technical Program Manager could be the most overlooked answer hiding in plain sight.
Tokensparsamkeit for coding assistants (opens on the source site)
Good engineers make decisions based on data. Most businesses assumed that the more data, the better the decision. Then, several factors put a halt to the hoarding of ever more data. GDPR and its localized counterparts, and the cost of storage. However, before the GDPR came into effect, the Datensparsamkeit approach already existed. Datensparsamkeit is a German word that’s difficult to translate properly into English.

Designing a team of agents (opens on the source site)
I continue to experiment with AI in the context of software engineering. I’m fortunate that my team supports me in exploring different ways to improve our daily work. This week, I designed a team of autonomous agents to implement features, from design to implementation. Why autonomous agents? A long time ago, we were delighted when the IDE offered auto-completion. In the previous two years, things have changed. A lot. Coding assistants have become our primary interfaces for coding.
Three Mastodon issues because of Cloudflare Bot protection (opens on the source site)
I noticed some time ago that three Mastodon features had stopped working on my blog. Each of them seemed like a separate problem, but they had the same root cause. In this blog post, I aim to describe these issues and propose a simple solution. Domain verification Mastodon allows you to prove that you own a domain.
A GitHub agentic workflow (opens on the source site)
Last month, I became aware of GitHub agentic workflows. I read the site carefully, but the use cases weren’t very exciting to me. I tried the continuous documentation It didn’t work out initially, and because of my lack of involvement, I left it as it was. However, I succeeded in another one that I want to describe in this post. With lessons learned here, I managed to make the documentation workflow work!

Part 1: Learn The Different Types Of Technical Documentation (opens on the source site)
In the same way the term “books” includes fiction, nonfiction, and biographies as genres, the term “technical documentation” includes many different content types. But what sets technical documentation apart from books are reader traits. These traits are a result of what the reader does as they read technical documentation – they use the app.
Technical Writing: How To Start (opens on the source site)
Writing is a learned skill. No one person is a good or bad writer. 🙂 When a colleague asked me to mentor them on technical writing, I searched for a single technical writing article, guide, book, or tutorial that addressed three key things. Since I couldn’t find one, I decided to create a tutorial on technical writing.
The Real Cost of Technical Debt (opens on the source site)
Writing software is an iterative process. Rarely is software written and then never revisited. When this iteration occurs, a software engineer is presented with multiple options. Usually, a single objectively correct option is present but may not be chosen due to time constraints or other outside pressures. When shortcuts are taken to alleviate these external pressures, technical debt is often accrued. Permit Today, Pay Tomorrow Technical debt is referred to as such due to its similarities with financial debt. A credit card enables a person to complete a purchase they may not otherwise be…
