Beyond the Prototype: Why Teams Need More Than Vibe Coding

Beyond the Prototype: Why Teams Need More Than Vibe Coding Over the last year, AI coding tools such as Lovable, Bolt.new, v0, Base44, and others have fundamentally changed how software gets created. A single founder or developer can now go from a rough idea to a working prototype in hours rather than weeks. That kind of acceleration is genuinely exciting, and it has opened software creation to far more people. That democratization is a good thing. Rapid experimentation, faster feedback lo...

Why We Spent Six Weeks Building the Wrong Product

Drawing on agency and consulting experience, this article argues that most software project failures stem from communication breakdowns rather than technical shortcomings. Through six recurring patterns—including building for the wrong user, mistaking approval for correctness, accumulating experience debt, neglecting observability, documenting what instead of why, and expanding scope without discipline—it makes the case that successful delivery depends on surfacing critical conversations early a...

Your Build Pipeline Is the New Perimeter, and It Just Learned to Replicate Itself

Modern CI/CD pipelines are no longer passive delivery systems — they’ve become high-value attack surfaces where trust assumptions are routinely exploited. Incidents like the tj-actions GitHub Actions compromise show how mutable version tags can silently redirect trusted workflows into executing attacker-controlled code. Meanwhile, npm supply-chain worms such as Shai-Hulud demonstrate a more advanced threat: self-replicating malware that propagates through stolen publish tokens, harvesting creden...

AI1 Servers Are a Trojan Horse for the Space Economy

AI1 servers , which will most likely run on Grok, will be lossy products in the short term but buffered by more valuable products like gold or Bitcoin custody services. In any case, they are a better way to recycle capital for human progress than the military-industrial complex.

You Can Vibe-Code the Build. You Can't Vibe-Code the Decisions.

You can vibe-code the build. You can't vibe-code the decisions – who it's for, what it does, why anyone would choose it – and those are the only expensive part. So founders ship something that looks finished and decides nothing, raise on the demo, and pay for the decisions later under a friendlier name: a redesign. The build got cheaper. The bill arrives anyway, usually 100% upfront.

Why I Stopped Sending My Agents to the Cloud: A Look at Local AI in 2026

Agentic AI loops burn far more tokens than they need to, and most of that traffic sits on cloud servers. This piece traces the resulting shift toward local, edge-based AI in 2026 — checked against primary sources, with several viral claims debunked along the way (a nonexistent "Camelid" engine, fabricated Snapdragon benchmarks) and several confirmed (TurboConn, MeMo, HRM-Text, real Snapdragon X Elite energy numbers). The conclusion: no revolution, just enough small efficiency gains to make local...

Trust by Default: The Five API Mistakes Driving Every Major Breach Right Now

Most API breaches don’t come from advanced hacking techniques—they come from repeated, basic design failures. Across recent real-world incidents, five issues dominate: broken object-level authorization (BOLA), weak authentication, excessive data exposure, misconfiguration/SSRF, and poor API inventory management. These problems persist because APIs are built to trust requests by default. Until that changes, the same security failures will continue causing large-scale breaches across industries.

Damon Burton on the New Reality of AI Web Development: Faster Builds, Bigger Liability

AI coding tools are helping founders launch websites and software faster than ever, but many teams are shipping production systems before they’re properly reviewed. Damon Burton’s white paper argues that AI-generated code increases exposure to security flaws, technical debt, compliance failures, and operational mistakes when governance is missing. The lesson isn’t to avoid AI—it’s to pair automation with testing, oversight, and accountability.

On-Device Summaries: CI Evals Without Fake Confidence

A schema-valid NoteSummary only proves the app received a bindable shape. It does not prove the actionItem captured the decision the note actually made. A useful CI eval should keep the claim smaller: run curated note fixtures through the same summary path the screen uses, score only crisp screen-specific failure modes as boolean rules, and label every green run by model version, fixture set, and scoring-rule version. Green does not mean summary quality. It means these known fixtures still passe...

Your Users Type Faster Than Your JavaScript. React Native Drops the Difference

React Native makes TextInput feel controlled, but native owns the text and your JS value is a lagging copy. An eventCount handshake stamps each write; if you typed while JS re-rendered, the counts mismatch and native drops the write on purpose. The leftover dropped characters come from transforms, cursor races, IME resets, and the old architecture. It is worst on a busy chat screen. Fix: keep the keystroke path cheap or go uncontrolled.
