Engineering × AI × Scale
Principles are easy. Application is hard. I’ve written about intelligent Engineering principles and the skills needed to build with AI. But I kept getting the same question: “How do I actually set this up on a real project?” This post answers that question. I’ll walk through the complete setup, using...
Principles are useful, but they don’t tell you what to practice. In my previous post on intelligent Engineering principles, I outlined the ideas that guide...
Same model, different tools, different results. If you’ve used Claude Sonnet in Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Windsurf, you’ve noticed this. The model is identical,...
Software engineering is changing. Again. I’ve spent the last two years applying AI across prototyping, internal tools, production systems, and team workflows. I’ve watched it...
Using AI coding assistants to introduce, automate, and evolve quality checks in your project. I have talked about teams needing to have a world class...
Why it’s harder for a professional developer to use a tool despite the wide variety of choices Coding assistants like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Gemini...
Moving beyond tools: habits, prompts, and patterns for working well with AI In the last post — AI for Software Engineering, not (only) Code Generation...
