The Impact Of Humanoid Robots On Humanity — Smashing Magazine

We have officially moved past the era of humanoid robots as mere public relations stunts. As they become increasingly lifelike, society may soon face profound social, psychological, and ethical challenges. What happens when the boundary between humans and machines becomes almost impossible to distinguish?

Engineering — Maintainability sensors for coding agents

Maintainability sensors for coding agents

In a recent article about harness engineering for coding agent users, I laid out a mental model for expanding a coding agent harness: a system of guides and sensors that increase the probability of good agent outputs and enable self-correction before issues reach human eyes. This article is a more practical follow-up where I walk through my experience with using sensors that help keep the codebase

Engineering — What Is Code?

What Is Code?

Code has two distinct but intertwined purposes. It is a set of instructions for a machine, and it is also a conceptual model of the problem domain. A well designed codebase is a representation of the vocabulary of a domain. These abstractions reveal themselves only as developers build the software. Programming languages act as thinking tools, enabling the construction of a conceptual model that su

Engineering — Thank You For Being a Friend

Thank You For Being a Friend

It's been one of those months, and by that, I mean one of the 663 months since I was born. This won't be a long post, because I only have two things to say. First, I'm really glad we re-ordered the GMI (Guaranteed Minimum Income) rural study counties so Mercer County, WV, my Dad's county, went first in October 2025. I knew dad was close to the end, and sure enough, that was the last time I ever sa

Email for agents - Cloudflare Email Service now in public beta

Agents are becoming multi-channel. That means making them available wherever your users already are — including the inbox. Today, Cloudflare Email Service enters public beta with the infrastructure layer to make that easy: send, receive, and process email natively from your agents.

Engineering — Add voice to your agent

Add voice to your agent

An experimental voice pipeline for the Agents SDK enables real-time voice interactions over WebSockets. Developers can now build agents with continuous STT and TTS in just ~30 lines of server-side code.

Engineering — Welcome to Agents Week

Welcome to Agents Week

Cloudflare's mission has always been to help build a better Internet. Sometimes that means building for the Internet as it exists. Sometimes it means building for the Internet as it's about to become. This week, we're kicking off Agents Week, dedicated to what comes next.

Engineering — Alternatives to the !important Keyword

Alternatives to the !important Keyword

Cascade layers, specificity tricks, smarter ordering, and even some clever selector hacks can often replace !important with something cleaner, more predictable, and far less embarrassing to explain to your future self.
