What does a world of total user-aligned AI actually look like?

Public backlash was too much to handle.

Six months of beta taught us that finance software fails founders in ways that have nothing to do with features. We built Money Magician because we kept watching founders — including ourselves — get surprised by their own finances. Not because they were careless....

You spent years building a solid BaseFragment. Loading states, error handling, analytics hooks — all in one place. Then Compose showed up and said: "No more fragments." So where does all that shared logic go? If you've been writing Android long enough, you know the...

Ask an AI coding assistant to write a script that deduplicates your customer database, and it can produce working code in under a minute. Ask it whether the email addresses, phone numbers, or mailing addresses in that same database actually exist and can be used, and...

In 2017, a seemingly minor failure in Vim’s go-to-definition feature became the tipping point for a nine-year journey to build Rune, a new IDE. This breakdown wasn’t just a bug—it was a symptom of deeper issues in developer toolchains. The feature’s failure occurred...

There are two kinds of vibe coding articles on the internet right now. The first kind is written by people who built a to-do app over a weekend and declared software engineering dead. The second is written by engineers who reviewed one AI-generated codebase, found the...

A few years ago, I built financial models that worked beautifully — on my laptop, on the sample data. Then production-scale data showed up, and they fell over. The math was never the problem. Scale was. The idea was fine; it just couldn’t run fast enough. The standard...

I used to think stablecoins were the simple answer to crypto payments.Bitcoin was too volatile for many merchants. ETH moved too much. A customer could pay at 2:00 p.m., the market could move by 2:05 p.m., and suddenly a normal invoice had become a small trading...

This post is dedicated to script-src, the directive that controls which scripts your page is allowed to run. We will look at how to use this directive to protect your site, and discuss when to use hashes, nonces and 'strict-dynamic', and see it live in interactive...
