The mark of a great engineer is how they approach a refactor. The great ones are surgical. Pointed changes. Stable interfaces. Everyone else sprays and prays. Unnecessary rewrites. Brittle abstractions. Premature optimization. Fluffy

Wondering what’s a better return on invested capital: upskilling everyone at your company to build automations, or hiring 1-2 good automation engineers..

Learning how to delegate to agentic coding tools is such a core skill for engineers now. There are tasks that I delegate entirely and only look at the final results, and tasks that I steer the whole way. Get good on operating across that spectrum.

One part of vibe coding I would not suggest vibing away is the design of the DB. 100% fine to have your LLM do the first pass but ask questions, explore alternatives, push back, and learn. As your app gets more complicated, you'll be glad you did this.

AWS outage feels like foreshadowing for the new state of tech. With LLMs writing more and more code, more issues will slip to production. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but just something teams should anticipate and plan for.

Just because Boston isn’t SF, people might think we’re not getting after it here. Major infrastructure overhaul kicking off with the team at 5am. Today’s gonna be spectacular

ARR per employee might be the only metric your company needs to track if you're serious about AI, automation, and efficiency. Level 1: 100K/employee - indie app, SMBs, early startup Level 2: 250K/employee - healthy startup Level 3: 1M+/employee - cooking

Over the last few weeks I've switched from just typing into Claude Code to using Wispr and having full blown conversations just like any other dev. And it's pretty amazing... Highly recommend "talking" to your agent

Wrapping around ChatGPT is the easiest part of making a million dollars with a GPT wrapper. It's everything else that's the hard part

Stopped bringing my phone to the gym 3 months ago and: 1. shorter workouts 2. real mental boost 3. made 2-3 gym friends 4. PRs in 2 lifts I cannot recommend it enough

I don't know how to build an iOS app. So I'm using Claude Code to build one this week. My goals: 1. Push my own skills 2. Peak into the future of engineering

Startup Idea: AI-first penetration testing. Three key features: 1. Agentic infrastructure and application discovery 2. Scheduled scans 3. Automated report generation Thousands of companies doing SOC2/ITGC every year would pay big $$$

A 10x engineer really just means a product engineer. So what makes for a great product engineer? 1. They get "it" 2. They ship fast, seek feedback, and iterate 3. They do the FE, BE, DB, CICD, XYZ (doesn't matter to them) Most devs are not doing these^. So do it

Anyone else tried any Claude Code alternatives? I've been experimenting with Codex and Gemini CLI a bit. Would love to hear what others are using
