The TeamPCP attacks are a warning: Your CI/CD pipeline is the new front line

3+ hour, 42+ min ago  (595+ words) We built the modern software supply chain on a flawed assumption: that the systems and dependencies we rely on are trustworthy by default. Attackers figured out a while ago that this assumption is wrong, and they've been exploiting it ever…...

Why coding agents will break your CI/CD pipeline (and how to fix it)

4+ hour, 42+ min ago  (1080+ words) Every engineering leader I speak with lately is quietly asking the exact same question. The conversation has shifted entirely. We are no longer debating how to adopt AI coding assistants or whether they write good boilerplate. That ship has sailed....

There’s a hidden tax on every AI-generated merge request

5+ hour, 42+ min ago  (658+ words) AI coding tools haven't removed bottlenecks. They've moved them to the review queue, putting more pressure on senior engineers. This result isn't surprising: As teams grow, code generation increases, but review expertise doesn't scale the same way. If you measure…...

OpenClaw vs. Hermes Agent: The race to build AI assistants that never forget

5+ hour, 16+ min ago  (1253+ words) Every developer who has used an AI coding assistant has experienced the same frustration: You spend an afternoon teaching Claude Code or Codex the quirks of your codebase, the naming conventions, the deployment pipeline, and the legacy database schema nobody…...

Moving beyond the “magic scaling sauce” myth

6+ hour, 12+ min ago  (407+ words) Even if a system is working reliably today, that doesn't mean it will necessarily work reliably in the future. One common reason for degradation is increased load. Perhaps the system has grown from 10,000 concurrent users to 100,000 concurrent users, or from…...

Why programming became the proving ground for AI

6+ hour, 42+ min ago  (1580+ words) I've always felt that AI found its footing in software engineering first because, frankly, the environment is honest. When you're writing a blog post or a marketing strategy, "correctness" is a vibe. But in our world, it's binary. Your code…...

The hidden technical debt of agentic engineering

7+ hour, 42+ min ago  (1809+ words) Anyone today can build an agent locally with minimal effort. With some LLM calls, a prompt, and a few tool definitions, that agent will be doing real work for them within minutes. But what happens when that agent needs to…...
