I've been in the industry for O(40) years and have written O(1M) LOC. I don't think I'll ever write O(another) line again, but I'll be launching more than ever.

Horizontal vs. vertical AI coding agents: A horizontal AI coding agent automates a specific repetitive task that's done 100x+/day in an enterprise. Stack a bunch of horizontal agents to get a high degree of automation in complex enterprise codebases. Not so with vertical agents.

Coding 1.0 is dying. Coding 2.0 is being born. Here's an o1-pro, deep research theory of the coding skills that are now worth 1000x, and those that are going to 0x. Will be wrong in key ways. But wow. Great start. chatgpt.com/share/67ad73a0… cc: James Cham

Last Friday, I had one of the most intellectually amazing experiences of my career: I got to do the following Idealcast interview (yes, they're coming back!) of Dr. Carliss Baldwin, the William L. White Professor of Business Administration, Emerita at the Harvard Business

I was out on a walk today and ran into one of my actual real-life heroes: Michael Abrash! He wrote The Zen of Assembly Language, which was our "bible" at Geoworks in the 1990s. He's done a ton of amazing stuff, not least of which was co-writing Quake with John Carmack. ("John

I finally tried out Claude Code today. I used it to track down a bug that's been plaguing me. The session, which was like 5 minutes long, went like this: Me: Hey Claude, help me track down this bug. Claude: Here are a bunch of things you already tried. Me: I already tried all

I've been using Claude Code for a couple of days, and it has been absolutely ruthless in chewing through legacy bugs in my gnarly old code base. It's like a wood chipper fueled by dollars. It can power through shockingly impressive tasks, using nothing but chat. You don't even

Another late-night Claude Code post. First, if you've just arrived here at the party, Claude Code is NOT the same thing as Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Claude.ai, nor any other Claudey thing. It is its own new experimental thing, also from Anthropic, makers of Claude and

Hi all, I just dropped a new blog post: sourcegraph.com/blog/revenge-o… This one's a beehive-kicker for sure. Hope you like it and find it enlightening, even if you don't agree with all of it.

I almost want to hoard this for myself, but: ampcode.com/how-to-build-a… is amazing. Thorsten Ball deconstructs how the entire industry is pivoting to the same 350 lines of code. "There is no moat" -- pretty strong words. But I'm so excited. I want a native coding agent in

Excited that we're almost done writing our book. It's going out for peer review this week. It has been a beast to write, but turned out pretty well, I think.
