The cost of intelligence is dropping unbelievably fast.
I switched my marketplace tool to GLM 5.3 Flash, which does better in my evals. Processing the same 1000+ workloads costs ~33x less than it used to just a few months ago.

Hi, I'm Bruno.
I've been building software for over 20 years. These days I'm an engineering manager for the AI teams at Prompt.
Your device has the 'reduce motion' setting turned on, so I've disabled auto-play on this video.

A Laravel package for third-party API integrations. Handles credentials, logging, retries, rate limiting, health monitoring, OAuth2, webhooks, and sync scheduling. Comes with official adapters for GitHub, Stripe, and Zendesk.

A web app that allows streamers to display data from Google Sheets in real-time on their Twitch, YouTube, or TikTok streams. I built it to help a friend with her streams, but it's free to anyone.

A web app that ranks TV episodes based on a human-driven sorting algorithm. It's open-source and free to use. Hit #1 on Hacker News.

A maintained fork of CodeIgniter 3, the classic PHP framework. I keep it updated with support for modern PHP versions while keeping backward compatibility (5.4 - 8.6) and address community issues and PRs.

A smart image manager I built for AI-generated art. It was my first time playing with Electron, and it forced me to come up with creative solutions to the problem of efficiently displaying tens of thousands of images in a view with smooth scrolling.

You can split the week into six days of 28 hours each. But if you do, you'll need a clock. This is that clock.

I run more Claude Code sessions than I can keep in my head, and they spend half their time sitting there waiting on me while I have no idea, so I taught my terminal tabs to tell me which one needs an answer by giving tabs colors.
Datadog is amazing but super expensive. So I set Grafana up on a side-project server, and now observability is completely free and I can log all the metrics I could possibly imagine.
A companion to my Hardcore PHPStan post. I put together a reference config with the reasoning behind every rule.
I put together a PHPStan config at max strictness with every package I could find, tuned for AI-assisted Laravel development.
Software engineering is going to radically change in 2026, for some people. I wanted to share my thoughts on the widening gap between AI-native and traditional workflows, and what I think comes next for the industry.
