It's been a busy year as a developer—so much code, so little coffee. At this point, my backlog has a backlog, and my debugger deserves a raise.
Did some thorough testing between two models and here's what I find :
🥊 Claude Opus 4.1 scores 74.5% on SWE-bench vs GPT-5's multimodal power. Complete comparison of pricing, coding performance, and which AI wins for developers. neuralstackly.com/blog/claude-...

Working through these stages has always been enlightening;however, I have a 5th stage: Joy! I finally finished it
The Four stages of Debugging:
1. That's impossible
2. That's unlikely
3. That's strange
4. Oh... I'm an idiot 🤦♂️

I was super stoked to check out Amazon's new AI IDE and see if it could give Cursor IDE a run for its money! 🤔 Kiro.dev just launched, and I couldn't wait to dive in and see what all the buzz was about. So far impressed but has one drawback that I mentioned in this video.

🚀 Cursor IDE 1.2 just dropped — and it's a game-changer.
Smarter AI planning, memory out of beta, PR search, better code search, and one-click merge conflict fixes 👀
Feels less like a tool, more like a teammate.

They promised “unlimited” AI usage... and quietly introduced hidden rate limits, even on the $200/month plan.
I break down everything — the shady backstep, user backlash, and why devs are switching to Windsurf & Claude.

When the patch notes say 'balance changes' but you log in and your favorite character just became a kitchen utensil...

Ever wonder why we’re told that by our 30s we should have everything figured out? The truth is, life is more about exploration than perfection. Career changes, evolving relationships, and personal growth can happen at any age. Embrace the uncertainty and enjoy the journey.
