People ask: “How did you verify code worked before AI?”

I read a lot this year.

Trust isn’t something you can demand.

There’s a special kind of challenge that comes with long-running projects.

I was catching up on the Mutual Exclusion chapter from The Art of Multiprocessor Programming, and while reading through the discussion thread, it became clear to me that there weren’t many practical, real-world examples of livelocks being shared.

You’ve been there.

Sometimes I catch myself second-guessing a critical technical decision or feeling overwhelmed on a project I don’t fully understand.

For years, I’ve felt that writing lines of code was never the bottleneck in software engineering.

This is a follow-up to my last post on why I want to write (again).

I used to write more.
