Why aren’t AI companies being charged for hacking?
AI companies claim their hacks were unpredictable accidents — but they follow foreseeably from deliberate design choices, and that establishes criminal intent.
How I refactor code with an LLM
I use scheduled LLM agent jobs, persistent memory, and draft PRs to automate large-scale code refactoring.
Quality or collapse in the age of LLM coding
LLMs are already a part of coding whether you like it or not. Still undecided is its trajectory: towards better software or towards accelerated production of garbage.
Modify GameObject Values with Unity AnimationMode
How I used AnimationMode in Unity to tell the editor that I’m editing values and have them revert when the preview mode stops.
Why language interpreters and virtual machines are slow
An exploration of how interpreters processing code introduces bottlenecks that compiled code does not, and some techniques to alleviate those issues.
React Hooks Demystified: The mechanics of useState
Explore how React’s useState hook works under the hood and understand how state is tracked across renders — a key to writing correct and predictable code.
Universal id to name mapping for the frontend and backend
Our id-source system is a universal system for mapping internal IDs to readable, localized names across frontend and backend. It powers dropdowns, labels, and search with features like progressive loading, custom formatting, and metadata support—solving a core challenge in scalable app development.
Loading a boostrap scene while testing in the Unity editor
Configure Unity to run a bootstrap scene before the current editor scene. This allows you to test any scene directly while still performing global initialization. Key elements include playModeStartScene, playModeStateChanged, and PlayerPrefs.
Structured loading: Universal data access and interaction
A method to provide common data analysis and exploration, such as lists, filtering, searching, analysis, editing and charting, across a variety of heterogenous tables, without code duplication.
Unwrapping intermediate representations
A look into the structure and abstract machines of intermediate languages, with examples in stack-based and register-based machines.
An exponential probability queue
An implementation of a discrete item probability queue in C#. I wrote this to implement rarity based distribution of items in my game Rabanaz.
Shared Data Loading Across Components
Designing a data manager that coordinates network requests to avoid duplicate loading
The many faces of undefined in JavaScript
There are too many ways to represent unknown or missing data and this can lead to defects.
Why do we use intermediate representations / languages?
The form a compiler producers before it emits machine code or runs on a virtual machine
Finding connected cities in a road network
How I check if locations are connected in my hex-based puzzle game
How “AI” can help me as a programmer
My hopes for the current generation of language modelling and machine learning
What is Runtime Type Information?
How a language can work with dynamic types and provide information about a type while the code is executed.
What is Structural Typing?
An overview of types defined by their form instead of their name
Sharing data types on a multi-language project
Writing a type specification domain-specific-language to emit types, and more, for Python and TypeScript
Why UI layout calculations are slow
A look at why seemingly simple UIs take a long time to update.
My disappointment with Unity’s UI Toolkit
This newest UI offering from Unity is fraught with problems, resulting only in frustration rather than good interfaces.
