An MCP server is not a new API. It is a thin layer over the one you already have
Somewhere in the last year, "do we need an MCP server?" joined the list of questions that arrive in a brief before anyone has said what the thing is for. It is usually framed as MCP vs API, as though the Model Context Protocol were a newer kind of AP...

Demystifying Greedy Algorithms: How Local Choices Solve Global Problems in Node.js
What is a Greedy Algorithm? A greedy algorithm is an algorithmic strategy that solves a problem by making the most optimal decision at each individual step. Instead of looking ahead to long-term consequences or evaluating every possible combination...

The Magic of Branchless in FinTech: How to Tame the NASD 30/360 Financial Standard and Solve the IRR Equation Without a Single IF
Calendar and interest calculations are a hidden "landmine" of the global financial system. Regulators and financiers have been unable to devise a simple date-calculation formula for several centuries. The US 30/360 NASD standard has been criticized m...

Building aegis-filter: Why Standard Kalman Filters Fail in Adversarial Environments
When building telemetry filters for autonomous drones or robotics, the textbook recommendation is always the same: “Just slap a Kalman Filter on it.” In theory, the linear Kalman filter is mathematically optimal under Gaussian white noise. In the re...

The adaptive threshold that deleted the thing we were looking for
Finding the four corners of a page in a phone photo is the step that turns a picture of a document into a copy of one. Everything downstream — the perspective warp, the flattening, the PDF — is easy once you know where the page is. We do that client...

Developer Weekly Briefing — October 30, 2026
Security dominated this week, but not in the usual way. Two active campaigns turned GitHub configuration files into attack surfaces. Researchers demonstrated that the built-in browsers inside AI coding tools can read your SSH keys. And at Oracle AI ...

Behavior Trees, A Star Pathfinding And Where LLM NPCs Actually Fit
Most of us are writing agent code all day now, and it is worth knowing that game developers solved a version of the same decision problem twenty years ago without using machine learning for any of it. This is the architecture side of game AI, written...

Procedural Generation Is A Rules Problem, Not A Randomness Problem
Most procedural generation threads turn into algorithm shopping lists, and the algorithm is rarely what went wrong. This is a writeup on the part that actually decides output quality, which is the structure you wrap around the random number generator...

Two Sum in C# Explained Like You're Just Getting Started
The Two Sum problem sounds complicated, but it's actually very simple. Imagine you have a list of numbers: int numbers = { 2, 7, 11, 15 }; And someone asks you: "Can you find two numbers that add up to 9?" Looking at the list, you can see that: ...

I Solved 80 Tree Problems Before Binary Tree Recursion Clicked
I'd solved around 80 tree problems by the time my second on site interview wrapped up. Most were mediums. Preorder, inorder, postorder, level order felt like second nature. Tree height and BST validation, written from scratch, half a dozen times each...
