AI Augmentation The Illusion We Built Our Industry On Software was never deterministic, we just couldn’t afford to explore alternatives. AI makes variation cheap, shifting the focus from writing code to validating outcomes. The future is probabilistic creation constrained by systems that ensure reliable results.
The Post-SOLID Era: When Code Becomes FLUID Last year I explored the idea of FLUID software as a design philosophy. This piece explores the next layer of that shift: how AI changes the software delivery model itself. For decades, software engineering assumed one fundamental constraint: Humans had to write the code. Entire design philosophies grew from that
AI Augmentation Featured Operational Practices for AI-Native Teams The Frontier Pod: humans and AI agents collaborating around a shared system of intent, validation, and learning.
AI Augmentation Featured AI Adoption Isn’t a Tooling Problem. It’s a Judgment Problem. AI value doesn’t come from better tools. It comes from better judgment. Those who manage context, structure work intentionally, iterate intelligently, and calibrate trust reshape workflows. The rest install software and call it transformation.
2 Years Featured Why AI Builders Are Publishing, Not Shipping AI builders are not shipping products. They are publishing probes. Creation is cheap, relevance is not. Like the 90s web, ideas go public before they harden. Shipping came later then, and it will again. For now, publishing is how signal forms.
Vibe Coding Featured Scaling Gas Town: From Frontier to Production Gas Town is one of the first real examples of multi-agent orchestration at scale: parallel workers, durable workflows, merge arbitration. It demonstrates the Time-to-Value Loop (Vibe → Forge → Mature) on the frontier. Production Town is what it takes to bring that power into organizations.
