Bigger context windows help one assistant remember more. They do not give multiple systems the same durable truth. That needs a substrate. langd0n.com/blog/the-missing…

AI made drafting cheap. Editing stayed expensive. The fix was not more discipline; it was a quality gate set before the draft. langd0n.com/blog/editorial-q…

The useful agent split for me is architect and coder: one writes the contract, one executes. Different roles, cleaner reviews. langd0n.com/blog/architect-a…

Agentic coding brought compile-time back: start a job, wait, context-switch, catch it when it unblocks. The human became the scheduler. langd0n.com/blog/ai-coding-c…

Once agents are in the loop, "who wrote this?" sounds philosophical. Operationally, it is a logging question. langd0n.com/blog/who-wrote-t…

I forgot to upload a social queue. The fix became a five-channel publisher, then the agent workflow crossed tmux and a model handoff to write the post itself. Software happened to be the first artifact. langd0n.com/blog/delegated-w…

Prompting is not just what the instruction says. It is where the instruction lives, and when it arrives. Context is something you route. langd0n.com/blog/jit-prompt-…

In agentic coding, the bug is not always in the code. Sometimes the instruction was wrong. That is why the build prompt matters. buff.ly/Q1vKQGe

GitHub Issues is a bad message bus by normal standards. For agentic work, the audit trail is the point. buff.ly/n3vckdl

My Calendly link broke. I moved to Cal.com in about 30 minutes. The point is not magic; it is migration pain getting much smaller. buff.ly/B0H6B6L

AI cost is often not a money problem. It is the wrong model, one-provider dependency, and no good handoff when time runs out. buff.ly/BbqLrmM

Re-introducing yourself to your AI stack every morning is not a prompting skill. It is a state failure with a human patch. buff.ly/1ph2k27

Your CLAUDE.md may not be too long. It may be doing too many jobs: conventions, state, one-off instructions, tone. That is a junk drawer. buff.ly/9PFzpFD

"Message bus" is just coordination between systems: queue, broadcast, log, or signal. The names get less mysterious once you see the shape. buff.ly/lUKQGdG

I had a moment when I couldn't find a script. My first thought wasn't "where did I put it?" It was: "would it be faster to just have Claude rewrite it?" I don't know exactly when we cross the line of regen vs find but I suspect it's closer than it feels. buff.ly/54WZv5O

Remote work keeps independently reinventing the always-open call. Three times. Three different reasons. Nobody comparing notes. That's the tell. buff.ly/lGCm3eb #RemoteWork #DistributedTeams

n 2015 I designed a governance model for a consulting collective with dynamic membership and decaying equity stakes. The industry finally has a name for it. Wrote it up: buff.ly/PWhkgHO #ConsultingCollective #OrgDesign
