A bit of a hot take: In agentic engineering, individual throughput is no longer the bottleneck — coordination is. In coupled domains, smaller aligned teams will outperform larger o…

Same, I took several of his classes in the late 90’s at UD. I remember him fondly. RIP

Firebug how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see.

Using 400A consistently would be insane. Building the capacity to support 400A but using much, much less on average is... prudent, especially when building a house that is remote.

Just because you prudently plan for 400A of peak capacity doesn't mean you would actually come anywhere near using it at any given time. Part of building a house in the woods is pl…

This is interesting... I really like that someone is building a note taking app specifically for developers. The way I take notes to assist in the process of writing software is qu…

It’s definitely happening and from multiple vectors including productivity, privacy and decentralization. Now that Chromium powers every major browser (except Firefox), it’s helped…

Would love to hear more about that. What was your biggest takeaway from Ultralearning?

This post is more oriented to those building developer tools, APIs and platforms. You have to understand developers from a needs/value perspective in relation to the product you ar…

I’ve been in tech lead roles for many years now and I agree with almost everything in this post. 80% of Insights often come early after transition because you can more clearly see …

If your service is non-trivial, composed of multiple services or a variety of workloads (long and short lived processes), Google Container Engine (aka Kubernetes) hands down. It is…

I like JBot... Other options: bot4j J4bot Botsdk (pronounced botstick) Bot devkit Chatbot kit Botlib

Inspired so much that you stole the name? That's embarrassing.

I'd much rather them forget reverse compatibility and fix the core problem once and for all. I personally like gb and the ability for each project to be its own GOPATH.

Interesting, we've tried very hard to make Beep Boop a 1st class experience on mobile. The login is through Slack which has worked well in all of our testing on mobile. I'd love to…

Sorry you had a bad experience :( We completely rely on Slack's authentication. Once you sign-up you should receive an invite to the BeepBoopHQ Slack team and you need to log in wi…

Sorry about the confusion! There are some constraints we're working around with the way Slack supports authentication and "adding" integrations. They have been great partners, and …

Thanks, it's been really fun to create too :) The most useful bot that we use internally is a deployment automation bot that orchestrates deployments and scaling in Amazon ECS. We …
