Great article on the latest techniques for coding with Agents, specifically with Codex CLI

Was installing GitHub Actions self-hosted runner on my Raspberry Pi, and it kept hanging while starting unit-test suite. Turned out it was rebooting from lack of power (crowded outlet). Years of working with cloud trained me to treat power as non-issue. Was fun to debug this one.

Sonnet 4.5 can edit its own context. Which makes it funny when Claude Code has a real Memento moment:
- it fixes the unit test
- it removes from context the tool calls that fixed it
- it runs the test again
- gets surprised that the test is working now
- moves on

Tried to generate a database diagram with Nanobanana extension in Gemini CLI, and that didn't go as planned

Great post by Simon Willison coining the term "vibe engineering". It tracks with my experience -- to get the most out of the agents we need to enforce existing best-practices of writing good software acting as Team Leads/Technical EMs

Vibe coding is irresponsibly building software through dice rolls, not caring what code is produced

What about when engineers at the top of their game use AI tools responsibly to accelerate their work?

I propose "vibe engineering"!

Was collaborating with a friend on integrating Clerk authentication service into a React app with a Go backend today.

Things didn't go smoothly, as our prompt plan was created without providing context about the latest Clerk API.

PyBeach 2025 was awesome. Great talks, amazing people. Python community continues to inspire me 🐍

My approach to Agentic Coding, this post is meant to be beginner-friendly, if you want to explore coding with agents, even if you haven't coded before andrewkurin.com/posts/2025/0...

Finally got around to reading Full-breadth developers by Justin Searls. It is a sobering look on AI and how to position yourself to take the most advantage of the current revolution.

Underrated AI productivity tool is Deep Research. I've used both Claude and Gemini deep research tools and they are like Google Search on steroids. Use it for a cryptic error message in your logs, or for an issue with a call box in your building. It will search through multiple forums on your behalf

Does AI make developers more productive? By how much? The answer is nuanced...

I have to say, I'm impressed with current Codex CLI. I've been using it all day on $20 plan. It completed some complex refactoring. I haven't ran into limits yet on "gpt-5 high".

I don't have a lot of new stuff to share that works, so here are some things that did not work. May it be of help to you. lucumr.pocoo.org/2025/7/30/th...

I'm seeing a lot of commentary blaming the egregious data leak from the Tea dating safety app on vibe coding

I'm confident that, in this particular case, that's not what happened: the code at fault looks to have been written back in late 2023 simonwillison.net/2025/Jul/26/...
