Yay!!! My book “Process Over Magic: Beyond Vibe Coding” is now live on the Pragmatic Programmers site: pragprog.com/titles/ubaidev/… I hope this book helps people adopt a workflow that fits their situation. I worked hard to show how different techniques behave in different contexts.

Well, I for one didn't "enjoy every moment of it". Good riddance to typing. Still doing programming every day, tho.
DHH is probably one of the top software artisans of the past decade. Hearing him speak with this much conviction and transparency about one of the most polarizing topics in software right now, writing code by hand vs. with AI, is something pretty much every software engineer should hear a few times. Especially those still on the wrong side of history.

I've started a project to have a better check on claudecode using jev. lnkd.in/gMrCXaCX No more "oops you are right I shouldn't have pushed that" Any feedback is welcome!

Waterfall and heavy methodologies never worked. I wrote about why the spec-driven development goes stale, what agents are actually good for, and the one artifact in your project that cannot lie. medium.com/@ramtop/spec-driv…

One reason I don't do much Python has been due to the lack of Effect Oriented Programming support. But recently @BruceEckel and I discovered an Algebraic Effect impl for Python called Stateless. Bruce has been spending some time with it and we had the author, Sune Debel, on the Happy Path Programming Podcast to chat about it. Really interesting stuff! Maybe I'll do more Python now.

Today I'm remote working from Chiang Mai Nimman market. I'm very much in love with this city and Thailand in general.

When joining a new team, AI can help you get up to speed faster. I wrote down some practical suggestions from my personal experience on how to use it during onboarding. Not to replace your teammates, but to make those interactions more effective. medium.com/@ramtop/ai-assist…⁠�
