Time-Travel Debugging: Replaying Production Bugs Locally

https://lackofimagination.org/images/hasnain-sikora-41NsEMAB1Ps-unsplash.jpg
We’ve all had that sinking feeling. There are multiple crash reports from production. We have the exact input parameters that caused the failures. We have the stack traces. Yet, when we run the code locally, it works perfectly. We know where it broke, but we can’t see why. Was it a race condition? Did a database read return stale data that has since been overwritten? To find the cause, we ...

Bootc and OSTree: Modernizing Linux System Deployment

https://a-cup-of.coffee/blog/ostree-bootc/cover.png
For several years, I’ve been looking to manage my system configuration “As-code” to ensure reproducibility and consistency across my environments. The primary goal was to install my work laptop, but I also need to install Linux servers (without Kubernetes, so Talos isn’t an option). Initially, I used Packer to generate a virtual machine image, which I would then clone onto the disk of the ...

Implementing a Z80 / ZX Spectrum emulator with Claude Code

The user replicated an experiment where a coding agent, Claude Code, was instructed to write a Z80 emulator and a ZX Spectrum emulator in a "clean room" setup with minimal supervision. The agent successfully implemented the emulators with high-quality code, demonstrating the potential of automatic programming and contradicting the idea that LLMs memorize the training set.
