Friends, last week I was sitting in a coffee shop and a young developer came up to me. He said, “Pinal bhai, I built an entire application last weekend and I did not write a single line of code myself.” I looked at him. I thought he was joking. He was not joking. He showed me the app on his phone. It was working. It was clean. And he built it by simply talking to an AI. That is vibecoding. And trust me, once you understand it, you will not look at software development the same way again.Today I am…

Press enter or click to view image in full sizeToday, let’s look at an interesting way to use Angular Signals to automatically synchronize the state of an application in the browser’s localStorage.Our example is a simple dropdown to select the app language. When the user changes that language, we want the information to persist in localStorage:First, we can create a service to interact with localStorage.@Injectable({providedIn: ‘root’})export class StorageService {setValue(key: string, value: T) {localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(value));}getValue(key: string, defaultValue: T): T {let value = localStorage.getItem(key);return value ? JSON.parse(value) : defaultValue;};}Note the usage of generics for improved type safety. That way, we can inject…

GitHub is introducing a new approach to streamline developer workflow, offering AI agents that can shoulder the repetitive tasks that accumulate inside code repositories. Known as Agentic Workflows, the feature is available in technical preview and is designed to embed AI into GitHub Actions as an integrated part of the production process. GitHub promotes Agentic […]
Checkmarx this week revealed it has added support for the Kiro artificial intelligence (AI) coding tool provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) to its Checkmarx Developer Assist that leverages AI to surface vulnerabilities before code is committed. The Checkmarx IDE extension for Kiro is designed to be activated from within the Developer Assist tab that […]
Explore how AI coding agents are transforming software development. This article discusses the importance of clear objectives, runnable tasks, and continuous validation in planning to ensure that the transition from idea to production is seamless and efficient. Learn how effective planning and clarity are essential for modern application development.
I haven’t done one of these in awhile, but I saw an article recently about this and decided to explain it to myself, but in a slightly different way. You’ll see how I checked on RANK() vs DENSE_RANK() below. Another post for me that is simple and hopefully serves as an example for people trying to get blogging as #SQLNewBloggers. Getting Started Imagine you’ve never used these functions, but you need to rank some data. Let’s say that you have a series of things that measure sale and you want to know who has done the best job this week.…
While AI tools are increasingly used in development, they should enhance rather than replace human input. Developers must shift from merely writing code to orchestrating and validating AI-generated code. This ‘spec coding’ emphasizes creating specifications that guide both AI and human efforts. Infrastructure must support this transition, with safeguards like reliable build pipelines and automated security scans. Ultimately, AI is a tool to aid developers, but the nuanced responsibilities of design, security, and performance remain firmly in human hands, ensuring responsible and effective use.

Safari has support for where a normal ☑️ checkbox turns into a toggle. You don’t strictly need the browser support to get the look, as it’s weirdly easy to replicate (based on idea from Richard Keizer). But Thomas Steiner has a more comprehensive polyfill if you want it to behave more exactly correctly, respecting writing-mode and accent-color and such.
