Cloudflare has opened a closed beta of Monetization Gateway, a service that lets site owners charge AI agents for each individual request to an API, MCP tool, dataset or website. The payment happens inside the HTTP request itself through the x402 protocol and the 402 Payment Required status code, with no sign-up, API key or checkout page. I explain how it works, what sellers can configure and why it is currently limited to the United States. I finish with a few thoughts on who it makes sense for and what is still unclear.
Starting in October 2026, Google Drive and Google Docs work with Markdown files directly, without converting them into the Docs format. The file stays a .md file, Drive shows a rendered preview, and Docs lets people edit and comment together. It's a small change, but it shows how Markdown became a shared format for people and AI agents. I explain what Google added, what gets lost when a file is saved, and who will actually benefit.
An AI model can state something false with complete confidence — a made-up citation, a function that doesn't exist, a wrong date. Here's why hallucinations happen, why the next model release won't simply fix them, and how to work with them in practice.
The context window is how much text a model can 'see' at once — and it matters more the longer your conversation or document gets. I look at what context windows actually are, why making them bigger isn't the whole fix, and how I handle the limit in practice.
Model Context Protocol connects AI applications to tools and data through a common open standard. I look at how MCP works, why regular APIs aren't enough on their own, and why it makes sense for practical AI agents.
If you spend a lot of time in the terminal, you're probably constantly jumping between projects, repositories and various directories. That's exactly where zoxide shines. This unassuming tool, which replaces the classic cd, can make your everyday work noticeably more pleasant — and after a few days of use, the terminal starts to feel pointlessly slow without it.

WebExpo turns 18 this year and the anniversary edition takes place on May 27–29, 2026 at Prague's Lucerna. Over the years it has grown from a local web meetup into one of the largest conferences of its kind in Central Europe — and it still keeps the atmosphere where you can have real conversations with people in the industry. For blog readers I have a discount code worth 1,000 CZK.
