Meu livro tá com um super desconto comprando pelo site da editora, só $13.99 (o preço normalmente é $37.99) compra lá e divulga nos grupos pra apoiar esse autor brasileiro tentando divultar um livro em inglês 😅 link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

"Ecosystem" is just a fancy word for lack of standardization and regulation.

Uma vez @ximaa.bsky.social me pediu uma revisão técnica de post q ele havia escrito. Claro q aceitei e, p/ meu deleite, era um post excelente. Simples e conciso, aborda um fluxo linear de sucesso. Anos depois ñ canso de compartilhar o post. E hoje o traduzi p/ pt-BR : ) cuducos.me/2025/06/06/f...

We've been using the wrong mental model to describe software development AI agents and this might be limiting the value engineers can extract from these tools. buff.ly/CLslpND #codeassistants #llm #softwareengineering #ai

AIs will become a lot more accurate and useful when they start making questions before giving an answer

Espero que goste! ♥️

The Future of Programming

The digital version of my book is currently heavily discounted on the publisher's site. Go grab your copy!

So far I've had no success doing any significant code refactoring using AI. It always ends up with code that is too bloated, it abstracts more than it should and over-complicates things. It frequently breaks nuanced use-cases or forgets something.

I expected Cursor Compose to be better at refactoring but I've notice it often makes small mistakes or simply forgets some piece of the code and because of that I end up not trusting it with the job.

"When reading code, you put things like values of variables, control flow logic and call sequences into your head. The average person can hold four such chunks in working memory. Once the cognitive load reaches this threshold, it becomes much harder to understand things."

As AI evolves you need to shift your focus to these two things: - Making sure you absolutely dominate the new tools to write code and are very productive with them. - Master the parts of the job which AI will have a much harder time beating humans. strategicengineering...

Refreshing to see more startups building AI coding tools NOT have ye mission of replacing software engineers with an “AI engineer” (looking at eg Devin, Magic .dev, and recent Meta). But build tools that make engineers more efficient! Sourcegraph a great example of the latter:

It's inevitable, with every new generation of AI your ability to write code becomes less and less relevant. The good news is that writing code was never the goal, it's just a medium to deliver value... #ai #softwareengineering #softwaredevelopment dev.to/filipeximenes...

In about 48 hours I'm hosting a workshop to help folks struggling to learn #Python or any other skill. If you're struggling to learn something new, sign up to attend. It's free!

Still think about this: Eng team of 4 devs builds a feature over 2 months. They skip the usual bureaucratic processes of PRD, RFC. They know what they are building. Before launch, another team pings: "How did legal EVER sign this off??" Well, they didn't. Project scrapped.

With the release of OpenAI's Operator I'm seeing people saying "oh we are going to need to rebuild websites for Operator" ...really? 1.if you need to rebuild, it completely misses the point of having an agent that knows how to navigate the web.
