- API versioning
-
In my previous post Evolving your APIs, I mention the main API versioning approaches. During the talk of the same name, I sometimes get some questions on the subject. In this post, I’ll detail each of them.
I assume readers know the reasons behind versioning, semantic versioning, and product lifecycle. If not, I encourage you to read a bit about these themes; in particular, chapter 24 of the excellent API Design Patterns book focuses on them.
I’ll summarize the subject in a few words in any case.
- Why I chose Calendar Versioning

Pretty interesting discussion, especially the app vs. library point.

- facet-rs
-
facet provides "const fn" reflection for Rust.
The
Facet
trait is meant to be derived for every single type in the Rust ecosystem, and can be used to replace many other derive macros.pub unsafe trait Facet: Sized { const SHAPE: &'static Shape; // (other fields ignored) }
- Engineers who won’t commit

- CVE program faces swift end after DHS fails to renew contract, leaving security flaw tracking in limbo

I don’t work in cybersecurity, but even I understand that the CVE registry is the cornerstone of modern cybersecurity practices. I shudder just thinking what’s going to happen next now that the program is shut down.

- When Is a Detail Just a Detail?
-
A phrase often repeated in programming circles, echoed in software architecture discussions, and found in the pages of influential tech books. But is it true? Yes—and no. Let’s unpack why this seemingly simple statement is both insightful and misleading.
- Guiding an LLM for Robust Java ByteBuffer Code
-
LLMs are incredibly powerful coding assistants, accelerating development and handling complex tasks. However, as this case study shows, they are tools that respond to guidance.
The LLM takes care of the low-value work; the developer still needs to be critic and guide the LLM to the desired solution.
