- [The duality of working in the cloud and hacking in C99](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/the-duality-of-cloud-engineering-and-c99.html) / [La dualidad de trabajar en la nube y tirar código en C99](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/the-duality-of-cloud-engineering-and-c99.html): For over twelve years, my professional career has lived in the world of high-level web engineering, distributed systems, and cloud infrastructure.
- [gitcrawl: content-addressable web archiver and snapshot engine backed by Git](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/gitcrawl-content-addressable-web-archiver.html) / [gitcrawl: crawler web direccionable por contenido y motor de snapshots en Git](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/gitcrawl-content-addressable-web-archiver.html): In my previous article on archiving the web with Git, I explored using Git's content-addressable object store as a historical database for web pages and documentation.
- [Being a good net citizen in the AI era: a guide to web discoverability](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/being-a-good-net-citizen-in-the-ai-era.html) / [Ser un buen ciudadano de la red en la era de la IA: guía moderna para el rastreo y descubrimiento web](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/being-a-good-net-citizen-in-the-ai-era.html): Search engines changed the web by indexing links. Now automated agents, RAG pipelines, and LLM search tools like Perplexity and Claude are crawling sites to answer user queries directly.
- [Archiving the web with Git: building a content-addressable crawler](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/preserving-the-web-with-git.html) / [Archivar la web con Git: construyendo un crawler e indexador histórico](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/preserving-the-web-with-git.html): Web pages disappear all the time. Companies delete docs during rebrands, terms of service change without changelogs, and links rot.
- [Can you use GitHub as a database? SQLite, HTTP range requests, and flat files](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/using-github-as-a-database.html) / [¿Se puede usar GitHub como base de datos? SQLite, peticiones HTTP Range y archivos planos](https://riccivr.github.io/blog/using-github-as-a-database.html): I often look for ways to keep side projects zero-maintenance and zero-cost, which made me wonder: can I just use GitHub as a persistent database?
