• The Hidden Costs of Cloud Provider "Free" Credits

  Instead of applying for free credits, create accounts with providers that focus on dedicated and cloud servers/VPS like Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr, and Scaleway. Check out our guide, "Choosing the Right Cloud Provider" for ideas on which cloud provider to use. Most SaaS, IoT, or web projects need just one or a few cloud servers.

• Compiler as Custodian

  Two specific moves stand out in Duncan's account. The first is durable execution, via Temporal — Mercury replaced fragile cron-and-database state machines with workflow code whose failure semantics are platform-handled (replay, retry, timeout, cancellation). Mercury open-sourced its hs-temporal-sdk, which wraps Temporal's official Rust Core SDK via FFI and provides a Haskell-native API. The dovetail with Haskell's... - Source: dev.to / 16 days ago

• How we turned our workflow editor into a real SDK

  We picked Temporal as the first reference engine on purpose. Temporal has the strictest execution model we know of – a V8 sandbox, determinism constraints, replay-driven recovery. If our port contract holds up against that, easier engines – an in-memory test double, a BullMQ queue, or JSON-first platforms like Inngest or Restate – plug in through the same two interfaces. We're shipping Temporal first; the rest is... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Three days debugging a missing trace

  The trick is to find whatever metadata channel the queue already gives you and use that and thankfully, almost every mature queue has one (probably because of this scenario). SQS has message attributes, Temporal has context propagators built into the SDK, and Hatchet (which we use to run our workflows) has a metadata field called additionalMetadata. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Best ChatGPT Alternatives in 2026: Evaluated on Automation, Persistence, and Data Ownership

  A typical production stack for teams using Claude or Gemini as the reasoning layer includes an LLM provider API, an orchestration layer (n8n, Temporal, or a custom Python service), application infrastructure (a server running the orchestration code), and a data layer (a database for storing results). Each boundary introduces a failure point. When the LLM provider changes its rate limits, as OpenAI did repeatedly... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• 50 Lines of TypeScript to Automate Any Website with AI

  The core is a browserclaw agent loop wrapped in a Temporal workflow. The AI navigates to your provider's payment page, identifies form fields from the snapshot, fills in your payment details, and submits. Every successful payment generates a "biller skill" — a playbook that makes subsequent payments to the same provider faster and more reliable. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
