And here it is!!! My new programming language Osprey! This has been a 20 year long dream, finally made possible with AI assistance. So stoked this is finally possible! 🎉

Demand End to End Encryption for absolutely every system and piece of hardware you use
This is the only way that privacy and security prevails
Don’t depend on systems that require your data to make money. This is destroying humanity

My workflow shifted again…
I didn’t bring my laptop on vacation, so I tried the phone version of Claude Code
It checks out your code on a container and you use it just like normal CC.
A bit harder without vscode to check the changes, but totally possible to work this way

Only been using agents for a year or so and already forgotten tonnes. Coding muscle memory is gone and I don’t care
In VB6 days I memoed every keyword cos I no Google. Now, I don’t memo anything
“Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders”

Windows…
Seems to be degrading. Perhaps it’s just a hype cycle. Or perhaps it’s a transition from human driven dev to AI driven dev
But, the problem is not the manpower involved. The problem is all the bloat and legacy garbage
Why don’t they just end backward compatibility?

Has anyone read any up to date papers on where the software industry is headed over the next few years?
Actual hard data and patterns…
I don’t think we need fewer devs. But I do think that anyone still hand coding won’t be by the end of this year

2026 AI Predictions
Agents become more efficient with tokens
Models like DeepSeek etc become staples for agent swarms at scale
More services that automate every aspect of dev: PRs, bug fixes, testing
Fewer problems agents can’t smash through
Cursor, Windsurf dying off

What’s the etiquette for ownership of AI generated code in your team?
Do you say “I got AI to build this” ?
“I vibe coded it”
“I built this”
All have problems, especially when people just plain don’t like AI

AI is not a bubble. A bubble is when people repeatedly pay an inflated price for something worth less than the market price. The burst is a market correction
AI is actually dirt cheap right now compared to its actual value. Big corporations are giving it away and cutting losses

“Vibe coding doesn’t work”
I agreed with this 6 months ago
AI assisted software engineering is a better approach, I agree
But my revised view is that you CAN create robust tools without even reviewing the literal code as long as there are good quality tests

Would your company pay to put an agent over the top of their public API with a nice chat widget that can sit in their app, website, or both?
Nice UI features like charts, data export, PDF generation etc.

I love that we’re going back to spec driven development
Stick a clear markdown doc in the root, delete all the fluff in JIRA tickets and point them at the spec
A good agent can just read that and build the app for you

t was pretty arrogant of us to believe that machines wouldn’t surpass us at coding in the blink of an eye
After all, computation is discrete and coding is nowhere near as complex as say fine motor is for the human brain

It’s so funny when I talk to AI hesitant coders…
Some are downright petrified of AI
Others just have anxieties
The first use of a good agent is cautious. The next is exploratory, but after a while, the conclusion is always: 🤯

Legit scary! 😧
AI agents are again so much more powerful than you can imagine
They’ve surpassed the point I thought would be the limit
They rarely spiral now
I can’t even find a challenge for them anymore

@bsky.app is the first app to request my age verification under the ridiculous new Australian social media laws. Furious!
I understand that Bluesky needs to follow the law but other apps are avoiding the sledge hammer approach by analysing user signal
Not hating on Bluesky but may close account

Look, I’m entirely convinced that if you need to build a React app, you write it in Dart and share business logic with Flutter and/or React Native.
All my experiments with dart_node are frictionless. You can even share the state management solution

K, so have to give credit to ServerPod. It’s a great technology.
However, and I didn’t really figure this out until a few weeks ago…
You can also build Dart on top of the Node ecosystem with dart_node
I’ve just ported the mcp library to dart and the sky is the limit…

dart_node already has 49 stars 🌟 and lots of people using it and experimenting
It’s clear that this has momentum. Let’s build a community around this and push it as far as it will go
Keep those stars coming 🙏

To what extent do companies like Microsoft, Google etc FUND LLM training for their tech?
Think about it. If OpenAI or Anthropic trains their models on C#, that makes C# a worthwhile language. If not, it’s basically useless
Microsoft has a massive incentive to FUND training

I have so many open source projects going right now. It’s like a smorgasbord of stuff to work on
Maybe I should make an app where people vote for which project I spend my time on 🤔
