STRIPS: The 1971 Paper That's Still the Ancestor of Every Game AI Planner
The 1971 Fikes & Nilsson paper that invented STRIPS planning, read firsthand — and the four changes F.E.A.R.'s GOAP made to run it in real time.
Core computer science ideas behind modern software: algorithms, systems, AI history and how computers really work.

Authentication is a cornerstone of contemporary applications. Virtually every app demands user login, identity verification, and secure sessions. Though it's ubiquitous, many developers implement authentication without
I use AI as a tool. I'll say that upfront. Claude helps me write frontends faster. It handles search queries that Google stopped being useful for
A retired Austrian developer built an open-source AI agent for fun in November 2025. Within 90 days, Jensen Huang called it the most successful open-source project in human history.
Ever wonder how Python's CPython, the JVM, or the Lua VM actually execute code under the hood? In this article, we build a stack-based bytecode virtual machine from scratch in C.
Cybersecurity is the discipline of protecting systems, networks, and data from attack, damage, and unauthorized access. Here's what it actually covers, how attacks work, how defense works, and why every developer needs to understand it.
This guide walks through designing a fixed-size memory pool, implementing reference counting with cycle detection, coding Mark & Sweep, Mark & Compact, and Copying GC algorithms, and wiring root object identification and sweeping into a working CustomGarbageCollector class.
Finding a matrix inverse is very useful not only in Computer Science but when solving equations by hand. However, using the formula Adj(A) / det(A) can be
