Tales From the Trench: Building With LLMs and Honeycomb

AI discourse these days is all over the place. Depending on who you talk to, AI’s are absolute flash-in-the-pan junk, or they’re the best thing since sliced bread. I want to cut through the noise, though, and see for myself what someone can do out here on the bleeding edge. Thus, I’m setting myself a challenge: write a usable—and useful—application with Claude Code, from soup to nuts. Here are the rules: With our ground rules established, let’s figure out our app!

Build an AI-powered Golang code review agent with CircleCI and GitHub webhooks

Code reviews are a crucial step in maintaining code quality, but many developers find them tedious and inconsistent. What if you could get helpful feedback automatically, as soon as a pull request is opened? In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to set up and integrate an AI-powered code review agent into your Go project. The agent uses the OpenAI API to post contextual suggestions and praise directly on pull requests.

Automating machine learning security checks using CI/CD

Machine learning (ML) pipelines are increasingly being treated like software; built, tested, deployed, and monitored using automated tooling. But while infrastructure as code and microservices have matured with security best practices, ML systems often lag behind. The truth is, your ML pipeline is part of your software supply chain and it is vulnerable.

How to reduce Cloud Costs (with Open Source!)

We strongly believe that simple observability should be an innovation everyone can afford to benefit from: which is why Coroot is open source, and includes cost monitoring for Azure, GCP, AWS, or your own custom settings. eBPF automatically tracks how each deployment impacts your cloud costs, so you can easily roll back changes and avoid lovecraftian monthly bill when necessary.

Smart Ring Development (Part 1) Research and Prototype

This series of articles discusses the development of a SOTA Open Smart Ring - a tiny wearable packed with electronics that fits on your (even the smallest) finger. We dive deep into what it means to develop such a product, its challenges, and ultimately, how to make it a manufacturable and usable piece.
