Java's journey is one of radical innovation, strategic pivots, and enduring community strength.

How necessary are build tools for frontend development in 2026? Let’s take a look.

Code is possibly the best medium to learn mathematics, and meta-skills for learning in general.

Junior programming roles are getting destroyed by AI. Meanwhile, millions of non-developers are shipping real software without the job title.

Prioritize routing over model choice. Most AI work runs on cheap local models.

How a branch proves itself ready: browser reality, persona eyes, and fixes that carry their own evidence.

What design engineering is, how it’s changed, and where it’s going.

Or how we refactored half the business to fix a janky script.

Codebases deteriorate quickly when automated agents generate user interfaces without canonical constraints.

Patterns for building software that handles money.

Native elements carry behaviour, accessibility, form semantics, keyboard support, and platform adaptation before styling begins.

The market is repricing software engineering labor—collapsing the premium for generalists while raising the value of deep expertise.

I kept an old iMac alive for years just to run Freehand MX. Halftones, moirés, film separations.

How prioritizing standard HTML features reduces maintenance and enhances long-term interface stability.

How shifting engineering to intent management accelerates feature deployment.

How AI is absorbing the visible friction that open-source communities have always relied on to see—and welcome—newcomers.

Vibe coding is useful for discovery, but software engineering starts when generated code has to be reviewed, owned, operated, and safely changed.

Coding agents made software cheap to build. That just exposed the bottleneck that was always there: deciding what to build.

How the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) is often misinterpreted and how to apply it correctly to avoid overengineering and underengineering.
