Quality degrades long before you hit compaction, compaction is the "Next gas station, 100 miles" sign but you're already in the middle of nowhere. You don't need to go down the rabbit hole of crazy workflows, but to avoi

I've had really good success lately with having Claude Code resolve conflicts, to the point that I don't see myself doing manual resolutions going forward. Set git.conflictStyle to zdiff3 and ask Claude to resolve the conflict, or

Looks like agent orchestrators provided by the foundation model providers will become a big theme in 2026. By wrapping it in terms that are already used in software development today like team leads, team members, etc. rather than inventing

80% of the value of TypeScript is that it will tell you when when you changed or added a parameter and forgot to update it everywhere, you doofus. The other 20% is that it keeps coding agents from going too far off the rails. Trying to use

I use Cursor in anger every day. The core idea behind Cursor is genuinely smart. But the execution is like the classic "unfinished horse" meme [0]. Microsoft provides the editor base, foundation models provide the smarts, and Curs

VSCode must have over 100 times the user base of Windsurf and Cursor combined. All Microsoft needs to do is implement a halfway decent version of the context management features these forks added. That alone would be enough to halt user mig

Windsurf and Cursor feel like temporary stopgaps, products of a narrow window in time before the landscape shifts again. Microsoft has clearly taken notice. They're already starting to lock down the upstream VSCode codebase, as seen wi

Add more humans and LLMs to correct for errors. If humans sometimes go crazy and try to randomly end the world at a rate of 0.1%, requiring two humans to turn two keys synchronously to end the world reduces the error rate to 0.01%. So, to a

All of AWS' big money makers are the meat-and-potatoes services around compute, storage, databases etc. where you could drop their offering and replace it with another in a straightforward way. It will cost you to migrate in terms of t

Exactly. You would have to be naive to build a company on top of this kind of API. LLMs are going to be become commodities, and this is OpenAI fighting against that fate as their valuation and continued investment requirements doesn't

AWS is desperate to climb up the value stack. Compute and networking is a commodity (with fat margins at retail prices to be sure), and the second and third place providers are willing to make deep discounts to land big deals. That's n
