Daniel PertuOur landing page for the weakest feature says the evidence is weak, because the page reads it from the engine
Putting the hedge in the code: a marketing page that imports its own caveat, version and sources from the rule set it is selling.

Daniel PertuOne content registry, four consumers, and the RSS feed that inherited an editorial order
66 blog posts, one array, and four places that read it: the index page, the Blog JSON-LD, the sitemap and a hand written RSS feed. Writing this post is how I found out the feed is not in date order.

Daniel PertuOne string is the page title, the h1 and the JSON-LD headline, which makes shortening it a content edit
A 24 page content cluster where metaTitle is rendered three times. Why that is deliberate, the 12 character tax the Next.js title template adds, and the trap it sets for anyone tidying up a title for SEO.

Daniel PertuYour title template spends ten of your sixty characters, and nobody counts them
Enforcing meta title and description budgets in node --test across 38 pages, most of which are generated. Why the suffix is read from the layout, and why unparseable has to fail rather than skip.

Daniel PertuA data export needs a field explaining what is not in it
Two self-service GDPR routes, and the four engineering decisions in them: a note field, a fail-closed guard, a sentinel contributor, and an order of operations.

Daniel PertuThree layers over one product, and only one of them is allowed to say no
A preference filter, a safety check and a clinical rule set in one engine, separated by what each one is permitted to do to the answer and by who is allowed to write its sentences.

Daniel PertuEvery thirty seconds it fails, and you should get one email, not 2,880
Four gates between a failed check and a notification. Only the first one is about the failure, and the last one is about what the user did ten seconds ago in another window.

Daniel PertuTwo apps, two ways of knowing where you are, one price table
Extracting a price list into a workspace package so a Next.js site and an Expo app quote the same number, and why each one resolves the country differently.

Daniel PertuOur ads are 28 React compositions, and the constraint is that any two must cut together
A Remotion clip library organised by ad slot. Why no clip animates out, why the camera lives in the composition, and why the global slow-down is not allowed near a clock.
