Sure, AWS agentcore and Cloudflare workers exist, but as someone who is constantly curious about how things work, I might just turn my homelab into a remote-agent platform as well.

I’ve started to write about my personal experiences more, even in the face of AI and the sheer speed it can output from a small idea. I feel that domain expertise and experience is still important and I’m trying to share more of that. lexedwards.com/blog/2026-ho...

Been raising some difficult questions recently, and very much interested in others’ experience crafting libraries for good DX at scale. Where do you draw the line between building a single entry but batteries included, vs, building blocks of functionality and letting the consumer decide?

I’ve always been biased towards doing one thing and one thing well; constructing blocks. But in teams of mixed experience, opinionated or strict rules have often won the vote as it leads to simpler integration at the cost of understanding or insight.
