The ability to break large eng projects into *independently valuable* incremental steps is the most important skill for senior engineers to develop.
Literally no one knows how to completely solve a large eng problem ahead of time.

Acceptance Testing is the Future of Programming. I truly believe that.
Too many software teams treat testing as an afterthought and in a world where AI is increasingly writing our code, this mindset is dangerous.

Be wary of people who spew AI hype and screenshot their army of agents but don't seem to be shipping anything but demos. I'm a big fan of AI assistance and use agents and chat everyday, but there's a ton of engagement farming happening out there.

80% of estimates are wrong in the best case. It's just math. Assuming you have good-faith estimates, the map of real-to-actual time forms a normal bell curve: 40% or so will be early, 40% will be late, and the top of the curve is within acceptable limits. This curve skews…
Don't scale agile.
Descale the work and organisation instead.
One of the best books on building an agile organisation is not what you'd expect.

I don' think most people appreciate both the nuance and the importance of this UI that Microsoft is shipping with their new coding agent
It works *on behalf of* a dev. This has lots of implications!
When you start to use more AI Agents that do long running work in the background, it becomes clear that software is going to look very different in the future.
Right now the vast majority of software was built to enable people to do all the work. Next, we saw a brief period…
