I got tired of coding agents editing before “done” was defined — so I built a plan-first harness

21+ min ago   (174+ words) Chat-coding is fast until it isn’t. You ask for a feature. The agent jumps into files. You get a pile of edits and a shrug. Two sessions collide on the same paths. Auto-merge is either terrifying or so babysat that…...

LLM Model Routing in 2026: The Guide Every Team Should Read

2+ hour, 52+ min ago   (1655+ words) Most teams still pick one LLM and send every request to it. That worked in 2023 when there were three viable models. In 2026, with dozens of frontier, mid-tier, and specialist models — each with different pricing, latency, and quality profiles — committing to…...

Agentic Synthetic Data Generation

3+ hour, 24+ min ago   (114+ words) The next bottleneck in AI isn't compute. It's high-quality data. 💡 As public web data hits saturation, the most interesting shift in LLM and Agent development is the rise of Agentic Synthetic Data Generation. 1️⃣ Autonomous agents run in simulated environments to…...
