Service area is still miniscule.

Yes, I fetch Jira tickets and epics via API call in the reviewer’s action. Both Codex and Claude can then reference it. Source is public here: https://github.com/BiggerPockets/.git…

Like a junior engineer, I find the models to be too ambitious and unable to steer themselves at a high level yet. What I’ve done to address this is prompting the model to break dow…

Programming is human. Obviously there will be cultures (and cults) that spring up and die down all the time. I probably pissed off a few colleagues over the years by rejecting thei…

Oracle overcommitted on behalf of OpenAI, taking on debt to meet their obligations. Not that healthy companies are not also doing ridiculous layoffs, but in this case, Oracle does …

I use Claude Code on a 900kloc Rails/JS monolith and it’s still pretty pleasant. However if it wasn’t already structured well, I could see that being a worse experience.

Thanks for sharing. We do the same thing at BiggerPockets but via Cloudflare workers to do the proxying.

Claude does this, at least on an iPhone. They added Code to the app about a month ago. I used it to get a Pebble Watch project started.

Sandi’s books and conference talks are excellent. My faves: https://www.poodr.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJjHfa5yxlU
