Hey, I’m working as a developer in a corporate environment and we primarily use GitHub Copilot across the team. It works well for us, and we’re already experimenting with building agents on top of it, so overall we’re not unhappy with it. Our stack is mostly Java/Kotlin on the backend, React on the…

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a tool I found that makes giving AI agents access to web data a lot easier without the manual headache. The **Website to API & MCP Generator** is basically an automated "builder" for your AI ecosystem. You just give it a URL, and it generates structured data, Ope…
I’ve been experimenting with coding agents a lot recently (Claude Code, Copilot, etc.), and something interesting keeps showing up. Agents are pretty good at generating backend logic now. APIs, services, and even multi-file changes across a repo. But the moment they need to **touch real infrastruct…
Say you're building a customer support bot. Its supposed to read messages, decide if a refund is warranted, and respond to the customer. You tweak the system prompt to make the responses more friendly.. but suddenly the "empathetic" agent starts approving more refunds. Or maybe it omits policy info…
Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to audit the real-world cost of using DeepSeek V3 vs GPT-4o in long agentic loops. I noticed that even if tokens are cheap, the **Retry Tax** (failed loops requiring 3+ retries) kills the margin. I built a small simulator to visualize this. **Tool here:**[https://bytec…
the testing problem with AI generated code isn't that there are no tests. most coding agents will happily generate tests if you ask. the problem is that the tests are generated by the same model that wrote the code so they share the same blind spots. think about it... if the model misunderstands yo…
OK, let's say software engineering is completely AI-generated. What are people's wild ideas on how we will maintain all this code? I don't think better PR reviews are the answer unless we dramatically change what we think of a PR review if it's not just touching syntax and the occasional security v…
I've been building open source software for a very long time, but i've never been a core contributor to a project. Yesterday it was great to see Plano trending on GH! Thanks to all the people who build with it, and the new contributors that have hit the scene.
I studied Peter Steinberger's workflow - the guy who built OpenClaw (228K GitHub stars in under 3 months, fastest-growing OSS project ever). His approach: run 5-10 AI coding agents simultaneously, each working on different repos for up to 2 hours per task. He's the architect and reviewer, agents do…
