Cloudflare announced Markdown for Agents on February 12th, and it’s one of those features that makes you stop and think about how fundamentally the web is changing. The idea is simple: when an AI agent requests your content, Cloudflare converts the HTML to clean Markdown at the edge before serving it. The result is an

There’s a conversation happening in every Slack channel, at every meetup, and honestly in every bar near a tech conference right now.

I recently wrote about giving Claude Code persistent memory using the MCP Memory Service. Go read that if you want the why. This post is about something else entirely. This post is about speed. I needed a feature in an open source project. I used an agent to write the code. A different agent reviewed

Request Tracker 4.4 reached end of life in November 2025. I’d been running RT 4.4.4 in a container on one of my Linode servers since 2020, and the upgrade to RT 6.0.2 had been sitting in my backlog for months. It’s the kind of task that’s never urgent until it is. You and I both
