One day the industry will recognize the drawbacks of AI agents and nondeterministic automation, and rediscover the UNIX philosophy of chaining together small purpose built tools in a low cost and predictable way, otherwise known as shell scripts.

In the era of wild connecting #AI to all "traditional" software systems via #MCP, we should design our systems as robust as ever. Limiters, circuit breakers, RBAC, graceful degradation, etc.

YES THANK YOU EU. The car I drive has a heads up display that projects text at distance from my eyes, & lots of steering wheel buttons, so I can drive it without wearing reading glasses. Touchscreens require me to PUT ON READING GLASSES TO DRIVE which is insane. I can’t drive touchscreen cars.
Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating.

This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens.

(Even better: Tesla will hate this)
Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe
Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.

Obvious observation: as a software engineer, I have to think about work-related things all day long. There is no room for my personal thoughts. So, I need additional time and space for it.

Here is why I consider AI agents nothing more than software. I'm talking specifically about the pieces of software that do things in a pipeline to complete a task. Let's take booking a flight to Vancouver as an example task.

I'm about to rebrand all my cron jobs to AI agents and raise a $100,000,000 seed round.

Nice blog post by @danp.net on the new #golang 1.24 testing/synctest package.

Magically make your tests run faster and be less flaky!

(Still experimental in 1.24, but hopefully with enough people trying it and giving feedback from real-world cases it could become non-experimental 😅).
I'm pretty excited about the experimental testing/synctest package coming in #golang 1.24, wrote about it here:
