  2. I have been an opensource terminal tool for understanding AI-generated code. A git-diff shows what changed, but the context behind it lives somewhere within the agent's session context, and often goes missing in long…

  3. Every week I keep hearing AGI is here.

  4. I am a software engineer, and I have recently started writing more publicly about Python, backend systems, frameworks, and things I have learned while building open-source projects. The problem I am trying to figure out…

  6. The AI engineering conversation seems to be shifting daily: from prompts, loops, to now graphs. I’m curious whether there is genuine progress happening in the field that has given me so much or whether folks are…

  11. I am writing a series of lessons on building an ASGI framework from scratch. The goal is to develop a deeper understand of how frameworks like FastAPI and Starlette work. A strong motivation for doing this is because -…
