With increased adoption of AI, there is often an argument that code-reviews are now the new bottleneck. And I agree with this completely. Code-Reviews, especially the review you do yourself after AI has written your code, take time. But I would object to the notion that this is a bad thing. What is a bottleneck? A bottleneck is something that slows down the process. It becomes a point where work must get in a line, to pass through a narrow space. With the speed of AI producing code, code reviews become a bottleneck. But is having a bottleneck in the process always a bad thing? The value of slowing down I can only speak from my personal experience of developing software for roughly 7 years now. But in my experience, slowing down is not always bad. On the contrary, it can be very healthy. When you slow down, and take the time to really think about things, you often come up with insights that you would not have if you always rush through things. And these insights can be golden opportunities to change something for the better. Be that a subtle bug discovered, be that a design flaw addressed or something else - the list is long. But as British computer scientist Tony Hoare famously said: "There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies." But simplicity is hard "I would have written a shorter letter, but did not have the time." If it was Mark Twain or Blaise Pascal who said it is beside the point. The point is, there is a lot of truth in this quote. A writer of prose I know also confirmed what many senior software engineers know - to make something complex simple and easily comprehensible takes way more time and effort in the form of careful thought than it takes to leave it being complicated and hard to understand. AI is good at writing code quickly, yes. But is it also good at writing code which has high q

I built an LED Strip Tetris game — without writing a single line of code. No keyboard mashing. No debugging at 2 AM. No reading 500 pages of datasheets. Just natural language prompts, an AI agent, and a Tuya T5 AI Core board. Here's the full breakdown of how it works 👇 🧩 What Is LED Strip Tetris? LED Strip Tetris is a DIY hardware game built entirely through natural language prompts using TuyaOpen IDE and Claude Code. It runs on a Tuya T5 AI Core development board with a WS2812 LED strip (72 LEDs) and three color-matched buttons — red, green, and blue. Colored LEDs fall from the top of the strip; players press the matching button to shoot a colored LED upward and eliminate the falling one on contact. The entire game — firmware, game logic, hardware wiring, sound effects, compilation, and flashing — was generated by AI. Zero manual coding. 🔌 The Hardware (Ridiculously Simple) Component Role Tuya T5 AI Core Board Main MCU — runs game logic, drives LED strip and buttons WS2812 LED Strip (72 LEDs) Display — colored LEDs fall and get eliminated 3 Push Buttons (Red / Green / Blue) Input — shoot matching color upward to clear falling LEDs Speaker Sound effects on button press That's it. No custom PCB. No complex wiring harness. Just four components plugged into a dev board. 🤔 Why This Is a Big Deal Here's what building a hardware game normally looks like: Step Traditional Approach Vibe Coding with TuyaOpen IDE Dev environment setup Install toolchain, configure SDK, fight dependencies Copy a workflow link, paste into Claude Code, click confirm Game logic Write C code from scratch, design state machines Describe the game in one sentence, AI generates the code Hardware config Read datasheets, look up GPIO mappings, manually configure Tell AI which pins you're using, it handles the rest Sound effects Write audio decoding code, integrate codecs Give AI the file path, it decodes and compiles Debugging Serial logs, oscilloscope, hours of trial and error AI self-diagnoses compile

A platform is a collaboration system: platform teams depend on application teams, and both need shared standards. Engineers trust a platform through its predictable behavior, not its features. Being an engineer is about problem-solving and being passionate about it. And being an engineer means sharing your passion for problem-solving. By Ben Linders

Because of the way they are trained, large language models capture only a slice of human language. They’re trained on the written word, from textbooks to social media posts, and our speech as captured in movies and on television. These models have minimal access to the unscripted conversations we have face to face or voice to voice. This is the vast majority of speech, and a vital component of human culture. There’s a risk to this. The increased use of large language models means we humans will encounter much more AI-generated text. We humans, in turn, will begin to adopt the linguistic patterns and behaviors of these models. This will affect not just how we communicate with one another, but also how we ...
