When you wake up at 7am, there are eleven positions you never intended, an account drawdown you have to ex

Remote MCP tools that run long: what your agent actually gets back

Most MCP demos show a tool that answers in a second. Real tools often don't: a scraper, a crawl or a report job can take minutes.

Why ALTER TABLE Still Takes Down Production Postgres in 2026

If you’ve run PostgreSQL in production long enough, you’ve either caused this incident or watched someone else cause it: a Friday afternoon schema change, a table with tens of millions of rows, and a ALTER TABLE statement that looked completely harmless in a staging environment with 200 rows.
