My household is hooked on the AI Assistant. It’s heartwarming to be able to buy consumer software that just works. If only Kagi had a Shopping feature, then it would be a complete solution for us.

I would have liked the article to address more specifically what skills will be needed in the future and how engineers of all levels will learn them. Senior engineers in my circle feel their own brainrot, and at the same time feel like supe

We should brace ourselves to find less and less satisfaction from the process as we become more comfortable embracing AI. At least, that's what the first chapter in the evolution of the AI-assisted software developer role has taught me

Author sounds like they are missing meaning in what they do. If they had a life mission, AI is just an aid in accomplishing that mission, and they wouldn't get sidetracked by all the unfulfilling projects (modulus the ADHD, that has it

You're describing frontline management, not middle management. My 2 cents is that frontline management is the worst job in engineering, for the reasons you describe and more.

When work was chill I went to decaf for the morning espresso on weekdays, and enjoyed real coffee on weekends. I took glee in withholding energy from work that I redirected to my personal time. Then when work picked up, I went back to regul

IA makes the most sense in the spirit of preservation. Etree ( https://www.etree.org/ ) is the longest running torrent site for tapes. It looks like only about 5% of the hundred thousand torrents have any seeders at all. Not

Indeed. I directly ask my reports to discover and surface conflicts, especially disagreements with me, and when they do I try to strongly reinforce the behavior by commending and rewarding them. Could anyone recommend additional resources o

> The real reason not to become an EM in 2026 is because AI makes our jobs 10x harder. This is true, but our job was getting kind of boring anyway. Time to lead, not manage. We should be having just as much fun as the ICs, and the best I

Again, not security theater. Signs of general dysfunction yes. Embarrassing. Fun to tease about for sure. Aside: the more times I re-read the article the more annoyed I am with the self-righteous tone. It feels like the author is mimicking

Allegations of security theater should start with discussing the threat model. This is just somebody complaining about a crappy key card system.

I love this article but don't understand the conclusion. Heroku is dead as a doornail, of course. Salesforce's core product was on bare metal up to a couple years ago. What they should have done is adopt Heroku as their internal P
