Caching LLM responses is just content addressing

An LLM review costs money and a few seconds of latency. Reviewing the same diff twice should cost neither. CommitBrief caches every review, but the interesting part isn't that it caches — it's that the cache is content-addressed, so a hit is provably the same review, and there is no such thing as a stale one. Editing a single line of your rules file invalidates exactly the entries it should, and not one more, with zero invalidation logic anywhere in the code. TL;DR The cache key is a SHA-256 of

My First Look at NFTs on Solana

When I first heard about NFTs, I assumed they were just randomly generated JPEG collections—mostly apes and profile pictures that became valuable because of hype. After building one on Solana, I realized an NFT is much more than an image. It's simply a token with a unique set of rules. Coming from a Web2 background, my biggest question was: What actually makes an NFT an NFT? I expected there to be a special NFT object. Instead, I learned that on Solana, an NFT is just a token configured with the

Your README Is More Than Documentation

TL;DR: Your README isn't just documentation. It's your project's first user experience. A clear README helps people understand, trust, and start using your project faster.
