mcpreflight, a read-only checker for MCP servers and x402 endpoints, recently scanned 293 payment endpoints in the MCP registry. The scan revealed that 74.4% of these endpoints passed handshakes, a rate significantly higher than the registry-wide baseline of 48.8%. This is the second report from mcpreflight, with the first one covering the entire registry.

The gap in handshake rates is due to the unique requirements of payment servers, which must maintain a clean handshake specification for commercial reasons. However, the rate is fragile and may change as agent payment volume grows. If you run an x402 endpoint, there's no need to fix anything if it passes the check. To ensure your endpoint remains compliant, you can run the same check in your CI pipeline.

This number is worth keeping fresh as it provides a trend rather than a one-time snapshot, and the raw data is publicly available.

Stored Procedures in practice: implementing business rules with PL/SQL

Que é possível criar métodos e funções para manipular um banco de dados no back-end, isso você já sabe. Mas e se eu te contar que também é possível criar lógica e armazená-la dentro do próprio banco…

  • Stored Procedures store code in database for reuse
  • PL/SQL syntax includes name, parameters, header, and block
  • Procedures encapsulate business rules and reduce network traffic

Building a Real-Time Quant Trading Terminal in the Browser (Without React Frame Drops)

The Problem with High-Frequency Data in React If you have ever hooked a raw WebSocket stream into standard React state (useState and useEffect), you already know the nightmare.

  • React state updates cause performance degradation in high-frequency trading data
  • Lumen OS terminal runs entirely in browser without performance issues
  • Direct edge WebSockets stream feeds from exchange endpoints

Building an Ethiopian Calendar in Flutter

Most date libraries pretend the world runs on one calendar. Building the Zemen App — my Ethiopian calendar and date converter on the Play Store — taught me otherwise.

  • Ethiopian calendar presents unique challenge for developers
  • Zemen App built self-contained calendar engine
  • Dart-based engine handles conversions offline
