I write about AI tooling, backend architecture, software engineering, and developer tools.
My wife is a vibe-coder, now what?
My wife has never written a line of code. She doesn't know what a function is. She thinks "React" is something you do after someone scares you. Last week she built her first app....

Nicholas Carlini is one of the most cited AI security researchers alive. He's spent his career breaking things. He's found bugs in neural networks, smart contracts, and production systems acro...
A neural network designed a drug and Lilly paid $2.75 billion for it
Last Saturday, Eli Lilly wrote a $115 million check to a company most people have never heard of. The full deal is worth up to $2.75 billion. What did they buy? Drugs designed by a neural network. Not...
The Great AI Migration — 700K Cancellations and What Comes Next

Apple Just Handed MCP the Keys to the Walled Garden — And the Protocol War Is Over

Every AI conversation starts from zero. You explain who you are, what you need, what you already tried. Then the session ends and it all evaporates. You do it again tomorrow....
The AI Coding Productivity Paradox: Why Your Copilot Might Be Your Copiloff
You're paying $20/month for Cursor Pro. You've got Claude in one tab, Copilot autocompleting in another, and your IDE is basically an AI orchestra conductor at this point. You feel faster. The...
The AI Platform War Isn't About Models Anymore — It's About Business Models
