I'm Xe Iaso, I'm a technical educator, conference speaker, twitch streamer, vtuber, and philosopher that focuses on ways to help make technology easier to understand and do cursed things in the process. I live in Ottawa with my husband and I do developer relations professionally. I am an avid writer for my blog, where I have over 400 articles. I regularly experiment with new technologies and find ways to mash them up with old technologies for my own amusement.

In the hours following the release of CVE-2026-92392 for the project curl, site reliability workers and systems administrators scrambled to desperately rebuild and patch all their systems to fix a use-after-free in HTTP/2 upload retries where cleanup turns leftover upload data into a new request and leaves a pointer...
This is a long-form written guide for the fight AAC Heavyweight M1 (Savage) in the game Final Fantasy 14, where the challenger and their seven friends fight the Elezen succubus Vamp Fatale. You may call this the XeBin guide in party finder listings. If you want to experience this fight, don't read this guide. This...
Lately I've been playing classic World of Warcraft to get a feel for it and see if I like it before I try and go head-first into WoW Forever fairly blind with some friends. People have told me that World of Warcraft is good, but I haven't personally played it (or really any MMO outside of Final Fantasy 14). I've...
It sure seems that a bunch of companies are trying to ship a git product of some kind as of late. Wonder why that is. Either way, I’m building a Git server backed by object storage as an open-source project. It sounded simple enough to start: Git looks like a filesystem, so let’s use a filesystem as a translation...
The power of science is staggering! Every day we're making new advancements in the field of generative artificial intelligence via judicious application of large language model inference technology. However, as we approach the next critical threshold in capability, we must look forward to ensure that we're not...
After a year of work, hundreds of commits, 5 generations of pull requests, dozens of tests, rewriting part of Anubis in Rust, the first compiler bug of my career, and at least three times making my tower run out of ram I think I have finally done it. The next version of Anubis will ship with WebAssembly-based proof...
One of the hardest problems in distributed systems is conflict resolution, or the same basic problem as merge conflicts in Git. Git merge conflicts happen when your branch differs from upstream in a way that Git can’t easily work its way around so it exposes both sides of the changes to humans and has the human (or...
In the hours following the release of CVE-2026-41992 for the project GNU gzip, site reliability workers and systems administrators scrambled to desperately rebuild and patch all their systems to fix decompressing two files in the same invocation of gzip (that's possible???) an attacker can trigger out of bound reads...
Someone on the VS Code team decided to do a redesign of the product. This makes VS Code look like this: A picture of the VS Code UI that has a design I don't like. This design is fine, I guess? It's got some rounded corners that look nice, I guess, but I really just want it to look like what I'm used to. I can...
Today I woke up and saw a brand new VS Code error when I remoted into my coding box: A VS Code error saying that the remote SSH extension can't use the API terminalRemoteResolver and that I have to start VS Code with some weird command line flag or something. Trying to update my extensions didn't work. I still got...
One of the most annoying parts of writing web applications is that in general: you can't trust browsers. But, you have to trust browsers at some level because that's how users interact with your software. As browsers get more capable with APIs like WebUSB, Built-in AI, or other absurd things; administrators want to...
While I was developing tooling for my job this weekend, I found a few blogposts that I don't remember writing: Advice for staying in the hospital for a week The Unbound Scepter Using Clankers to Help Me Process Surgery Checking the date range, they coincide with when I was in the hospital earlier this year. I have...
