BREAKING NEWS: AI coding may not be helping as much as you think

BREAKING NEWS: AI coding may not be helping as much as you think

Source: open.substack.com

Coding has been the strongest use case. But a new study from METR just dropped.

Notes:

Linked is just one interesting data point about coding with ai. It’s interesting because it is counterintuitive to what everyone thinks. But of course this has to be replicated. I have to say that it is not inconsistent with my own personal experience.

CTOs Reveal How AI Changed Software Developer Hiring in 2025

CTOs Reveal How AI Changed Software Developer Hiring in 2025

Source: finalroundai.com

We asked 12 CTOs and CEOs what skill they now prioritize when hiring developers because of AI. Their answers validate what experienced developers suspected all along.

Notes:

Linked is an article that is kind of fluffy but it contains opinions that I agree with, about the impact of ai on developers.

Async Queue – One of My Favorite Programming Interviews (Can AI Break It?)

Async Queue – One of My Favorite Programming Interviews (Can AI Break It?)

Source: davidgomes.com

For the past 7+ years, I've been conducting a programming interview that has been a true personal favorite of mine. It was passed down to me from good friends (Jeremy Kaplan and Carl Sverre, and it was the latter whom I believe invented it). This interview has probably been given

Notes:

Linked is an article with more of what’s been fascinating me lately, how and when ai can accelerate coding.

How I use Claude Code | Christian B. B. Houmann

Source: bagerbach.com

I run multiple Claude Code instances daily for everything from throwaway scripts to production systems. This guide covers the patterns, commands, and workflow optimizations I've developed - including how to use CC effectively with existing codebases, manage parallel agents, and avoid common pitfalls.

Notes:

Linked is a good article about using Claude code in sophisticated ways. I am a big big fan of Claude code.

Introducing the first alpha of Turso: The next evolution of SQLite

Introducing the first alpha of Turso: The next evolution of SQLite

Source: turso.tech

We’re launching the first alpha of Turso. A Rust-based, cloud-native rewrite of SQLite with modern concurrency, async APIs, and unmatched reliability powered by advanced testing and open-source collaboration.

Notes:

Linked is a new database - they come every day now don’t they? This ones claim to fame is that it’s an open source rewrite of SQLite allowing asynchronous API calls and concurrent access. It seems to follow the SQLite API exactly. It is a white box rewrite by a different team.

The best electric bikes at any price level? We've tested them all, and here are the best e-bikes for any budget and every type of rider.

Notes:

Linked is one more rundown of e-bikes. I have become a big fan of mine, which is a Velotric. They are super lightweight (for an ebike) and are mentioned positively in this article!

Arduino/ROS2 Self-Driving Robot 120mm Build Pack

Source: makerspet.com

Learn professional robotics basics hands-on by building a little Arduino and ROS2 -compatible robot. Maker's Pet Mini robot consists of a 120mm round base, two N20 motors (differential drive), a 360° scanning 2D LiDAR distance sensor, a motor driver board and an ESP32 development board. The Mini robot comes with step-by-step "from-scratch" assembly, setup, bring-up, operation instruction videos

Notes:

Linked is a very nice beginner ROS2 robot. Amazingly inexpensive. 1/4 the price of a turtlebot. I am ordering one to see how it is!

Refactoring Gone Wild: Avoiding code smells and cleaning up the mess - iO tech_hub

Source: techhub.iodigital.com

Identifying and avoiding bad coding practices, and refactoring them into clean, elegant, self-explanatory code

Notes:

Linked is one of the best refactoring “recipe” books I’ve seen. I recognize single one of the patterns that are described! I’ve seen them and I’ve done them. It should be a checklist for beginning devs.
