Years trying to speed up the development loop with things like incremental builds and hot reloading and now it looks like the future might be sitting around for minutes between prompts while AI agents do their thing.

Any online dev courses or books you’ve purchased in the last couple of years that you’d recommend? I have some budget left. Can be anything related to web or mobile dev, programming, accessibility, but also I’m open to other topics.
