You know that sinking feeling when a customer says "I never got your text" and you have no idea why? That's exactly why I built Twilio SMS Tracker; an open-source dashboard that shows you everything happening with your SMS me

who ever's downvoting my comment... You're literally trying to shut up the positive review due to your lack of empathy? WTF? This is my preference, I'm an expert in tech and I don't hold your negative views... Stop tryin

I got so excited watching these videos and going through the product page. I completely ignored the price tag without putting any resistance and I thought to myself: I'VE GOT TO HAVE THIS! Not only that... I started to think about ways

I’ve been trying to run multiple AI sessions at the same time without everything tripping over itself. This write-up shares the pattern that’s worked: keep each run in its own sandbox (I use Git worktrees), give the small helper agents clea

There's a ton of people that are so resistant to change... Like, finding people who embrace the future and is okay with uncertainty for a while is tough, mostly on scenarios where their age is 35+, though not so dependent on age, but o

Wow! You did something amazing! The first few interactions, I felt as if I was actually spinning a wheel. Great job, bravo!

Yeah, I know LLMs aren’t there yet. But there’s still a lot of room to grow from micro-managing AI by building memory, refining MCPs, and running agents on real work.

People talk about “using AI” like it’s just another app. You sign up, click around, maybe save some time. But it’s really about building systems that keep learning and improving without me. I’m going all in on AI so I can eventually go tech

I wrote a short post on something I keep running into: Not all software is equally easy for AI agents to integrate with. Some have stable APIs and IDs. Others change identifiers, have no API, or require fragile UI hacks. MCP is great for st

I relate, but you need to become healthy. Get up early in the morning, run with your friends or join a group of runners. That’s the answer. Regulate your sleep, get your blood checked, and if you’re low on vitamin D3, supplement it. Follow

We’ve spent years building systems that understand... But now, we’re entering a phase where AI can actually act. Not through APIs or complex integrations, but right from your machine, with simple tools and natural language. In this post, I

What happens when the DB gets large? How do you handle idempotency? (What if SQS delivers twice?) The cron job is still a single point of failure...

Yeah, we’ve seen that too. Raw AI output isn’t reliable enough for high-stakes data work. That’s exactly why we don’t let AI run migrations. We use it to speed up the boring parts, like mapping table structures. But humans are always in con

by rashidae 1y ago
Totally agree. We wouldn’t trust AI to run that kind of migration either... And we don’t. But here’s what we do use AI for: • Mapping legacy schemas • Spotting patterns • Generating boilerplate ETL code fast Then humans step in: • Validate

We're using AI to write the boring integration code that moves data from System A to System B. The actual data processing is deterministic code that's tested like any critical system. Correctness: 100% schema mapping accuracy afte

by rashidae 1y ago
We're not replacing deterministic processes with probabilistic ones, that would be insane for production data. Here's what actually happens: 1. MCP exposes system schemas in a standardized way 2. AI analyzes the schemas and sugges

Some business problems look hard, cost a lot to fix, and yet are surprisingly easy to solve—if you know how to look. This post introduces the idea of the Asymmetric Leverage Zone (ALZ): When perceived difficulty × available budget is high,

We Replaced ETL with MCP(rashidazarang.com)

We used to spend 40–80 hours writing and maintaining brittle ETL code for every integration. Now we spend 4–8 hours deploying MCP (Model Context Protocol) interfaces and letting AI handle the rest. No hardcoded pipelines.

True. I believe the most important question right now is… how to solve for memory. RAG and/or Fine-tuning is not the way. Another topic is security, which would consist of using Ollama + Proxmox for example, but of course, right now, a

I just discovered a new meta-discipline, which most likely will become a new science. I know, it sounds crazy. In a month or so, I’ll be sharing some news.

I believe we need to take a more participatory approach to intelligence orchestration. It’s not humans vs machines.
