Stewie's Lab

GitHub gems, dev tools and nerdy demos with Stewie & Brian. Useful code. Lab chaos. Independent fan project. AI-assisted voices and art.

Same sentence, same model. What made the first request slower? AI-assisted voices and artwork. #LocalAI #Inference #StewiesLab

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

The menu change is in Git. The café site still serves the old menu. Follow the build and deploy. AI-assisted voices and artwork. #CICD #GitHubActions #StewiesLab

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Brian closed the tab. Who’s still rendering the video? AI-assisted voices and artwork. #BackgroundJobs #WebDev #StewiesLab

A password protects the app. It cannot patch the runtime underneath. Brian learns why the 21 October 2026 PHP security releases mattered. AI-assisted voices and artwork. #PHP #WebDevelopment #Cybersecurity #StewiesLab

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

One order. Two emails? Webhook retries can repeat the work. Stewie explains event IDs, atomic saves and stable action keys. AI-made voices and art. #Webhooks #Coding

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Same notification. Unnecessary repeated work. Brian learns what a frame is and what a transform actually changes. AI-made voices and art. #CSS #WebPerformance

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Stewie wrote the reply. The server delivered it. Follow their chat to see what WebSockets changes. AI-made voices and art. #WebSockets #WebDevelopment

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Full Wi-Fi bars. No website. Which step failed? Brian and Stewie follow one DNS lookup. AI-made voices and art. #DNS #WebDevelopment

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Updated the site, but still seeing the old page? Stewie explains browser caching, ETags and 304 responses with a cafe menu. Fresh means allowed reuse, not confirmed latest. AI-made voices and art. #WebDevelopment #BrowserCache

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Will this AI fit on your GPU? File size is only the start. Stewie explains VRAM, quantization and runtime headroom. Illustrated example, not a GPU benchmark or fit guarantee. AI-made voices and art. #LocalAI #GPU

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Brian said blue. The AI answered green. Stewie separates chat history, the current request and saved memory. Illustrated example; no model inference recorded. Even included facts can be missed. AI-made voices and art. #AI #LLM

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Works on your machine. Missing a library on mine. Brian and Stewie explain Docker images, containers and volumes through one notes app. Illustrated example; compatible runtime and architecture still matter. Volumes aren’t backups. AI-made characters. #Docker #Coding

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Your app restarted. Your bug list vanished. Brian and Stewie explain SQLite: save a record to bugs.db, commit it, and read it back in a fresh process. Real local synthetic demo. Important records still need backups. AI-made characters. #SQLite #Coding

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Brian asked for a bug-report summary. The document had other plans. Stewie explains prompt injection, keeping the task separate from source text, and why safeguards reduce risk rather than guarantee safety. Illustrated example, AI-made characters. #PromptInjection #AI

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

Two folders. One repo. Brian and Stewie explain Git worktrees: separate working folders and staging areas, shared history, and an explicit merge. Separate folders do not prevent merge conflicts. #Git #GitWorktree #DeveloperTools

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

The click worked. The login didn't. Stewie and Brian use Playwright to reproduce the bug, fix the code, and rerun the same test. A green check proves the tested path, not the whole app. #Playwright #WebTesting #TestAutomation

[Stewie's Lab @StewiesLab]

What does MCP actually do?

AI app → tool server → project data → result. One bug report shows the whole loop—and why reading the issue doesn’t fix the button.

Next: Playwright.

Your dev setup needed a manager. Brian asks what Vite+ actually does; Stewie explains it in 75 seconds.

Preview, format, check, test, build. Then open the page.
