Improving the auditability of AI interactions is crucial for maintaining security and control. A recent update focuses on preventing the exposure of raw code to AI models, enhancing data security, and providing better insights into flagged code changes.

The Challenge of Raw Diffs

Previously, raw git diffs were sent to AI models for analysis. This approach, while providing detailed context,

Introduction

Maintaining data consistency across distributed systems and applications often requires careful management of caches. Stale data in caches can lead to unexpected behavior and inconsistencies. We recently implemented several enhancements to our application's caching strategy, focusing on proactive invalidation to ensure data accuracy and prevent outdated information from impacting

Caching is a fundamental technique for reducing database load and improving response times.

Introduction

We recently optimized a background job responsible for post-generation in our application, specifically focusing on how it handles premium access checks. Initially, the job was configured to check user-level premium access, which led to inefficiencies. This post outlines the problem, the solution, and the benefits we observed.

The Problem: Redundant User-Level Checks
