Thoughts, stories, and ideas.
Most devices on the internet aren’t directly reachable. They’re behind routers doing NAT (Network Address Translation), meaning they have private IPs (like 192.168.x.x) and rely on the router to translate requests. The problem? Two devices behind different NATs can’t just connect to each other — they don’t even know how to reach each other.
I’ve been exploring Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks and how they allow devices to communicate without relying on a central server. From bootstrapping and DHTs to NAT traversal, here’s a breakdown of how P2P systems work and why they’re so powerful in today’s decentralized internet.
Just raw concepts that devs keep getting wrong. Doesn’t matter if you're using JavaScript, Python, or Rust — these issues show up everywhere.
Rust does not compile to EVM bytecode, making it incompatible with Ethereum's core virtual machine. The EVM is purpose-built for deterministic execution, gas accounting, and minimal opcode usage.
I was randomly surfing Reddit and came across this post: [Rust and Primagen](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/1hvm6vj/rust_primagen/). The user was sharing how they learned Rust because of Primagen's hype, only to see him do a complete 180 later. And honestly?
Well, 2024 is officially over, and honestly? I didn’t really create anything this year that I can confidently call “cool.” I barely even touched Python, which is kind of sad considering how much I used to enjoy working with it. So, for 2025, I’ve decided to dive into something fun and a little different: Morse code projects!
So, I’m working on this desktop app with Tauri, and lately, I’ve been stuck on this question: do I really need to get into Tokio? I mean, Tauri uses it, so yeah, probably. Plus, I came across this blog about separating threads in Tokio, and now I can’t stop thinking about how much I actually need to know to not screw things up later.
So, here I am, checking out React. It’s kind of funny because I still remember back in 2022 when I was stuck in this loop of searching for hours on end, trying to figure out what framework to learn. Should I go with React?
Astro is everywhere on Reddit lately, and honestly, I’m not surprised. I started using it earlier this year for
From everything I've read while planning my survey app, here's a quick breakdown of these rendering methods:
I've been using Astro for a little while now—built my first portfolio with it—and overall, it's been pretty straightforward. What I like about Astro is how simple it makes building static sites. You handle your logic and imports at the top of the file, then just focus on writing your HTML. It's clean and to the point, which is exactly what I needed for a project like a portfolio.
Here's my opinion on JavaScript as a Python developer. I've been using JavaScript for the past year and Python since the pandemic, so here are some of my thoughts:
I recently needed to make a computer vision program. Python GUI libraries suck, so I thought, why not use Flask as the UI interface instead?
I made a Python program that records the screen. But here's what makes it different --- it doesn't record the entire screen. Instead, it only captures the area around the mouse.

In this blog, I'll walk through four different types of blurring techniques in OpenCV: **Simple Blur**, **Box Blur**, **Gaussian Blur**, and **Median Blur**. Each technique serves a different purpose, and I'll show you how to apply them in Python using OpenCV.

I'm sharing what I learned with you. Let's get started!
I've recently started exploring computer vision, and OpenCV is the first library I came across. It's amazing how you can manipulate images and even interact with your webcam using just a few lines of code. Here's what I've learned so far.
Here's a quick Python script to do it.
