Thinking
Thinking about technology, engineering and the systems organisations depend on.
Practical perspectives on software engineering, AI, research, security and building technology that lasts.
Before you build: is AI the right tool, or just the fast one?
A pattern is showing up across a lot of businesses: an AI tool builds something fast, but nobody asked whether building was the right move at all.
The benefits and the downsides don't cancel out: they compound
AI-assisted development has a clear upside column. The downside column is less visible, and the two compound over the life of the product.
What we actually do before we write a line of code
Our mandate is to demystify what AI tools can and can't promise, and help you decide, honestly, whether building is the right move at all.
AI-built software and security: the best case, the worst case, and how to land on the right side of that line
Every conversation about AI-assisted development eventually gets to security, and it should.
Why we monitor what we build
Most conversations about software focus on launch. Fewer focus on month three: that's the gap our custom application monitoring closes.
