New PMM managers often face overwhelm as AI accelerates productivity but also creates more noise, lower motivation, and unrealistic executive expectations. Success in the role depends on mastering four foundations: purpose, people, process, and performance. Process is becoming increasingly important in an AI-driven environment. This post introduces a 30-60-90 day plan that helps managers transition from consuming value to producing it by first building trust and clarity, then refining systems, and finally delivering visible wins tied to business impact. By day 90, managers should establish a PMM charter, delegate ownership, and cement a high-performing culture while also demonstrating their own leadership through impactful projects. Long-term success comes from giving clear feedback, creating scalable systems, and shifting from individual contribution to enabling team-wide growth.

This is a tutorial on building a custom CLI coding agent using Pydantic-AI and an MCP that can read code, run tests, and update codebases. The author chose to build their own agent rather than using commercial tools because it allows for customization to their specific dev environment, standards, and project requirements. The implementation uses Claude as the foundation model and adds capabilities like automated testing, development guidelines through instructions, and extensible tools through MCP servers.
The team at Calm Engineering migrated their Rush.js monorepo to Node type stripping, which allows running TypeScript files natively in Node without transpilation, resulting in faster builds, tests, and shorter feedback loops. The main challenge was refactoring their extensive use of Sinon stubbed modules, which they solved by changing their approach from stubbing modules to stubbing classes. The migration involved incrementally moving from CommonJS to ESM modules, adding file extensions to imports, and updating their codebase to be fully ESM compliant, ultimately achieving 30-40% faster local development tasks.
When upgrading Go error handling to errors.As(), there's a dangerous bug where the function requires exact type matching between pointer vs. value types—if an error is returned as a value but checked as a pointer, the check silently fails without compilation errors. The solution is to use compile-time interface assertions to document intended usage and linters to enforce consistency, since these mismatches can bypass critical error handling in production.
Tech leads commonly fail in five ways: micromanaging decisions, abandoning coding for meetings, refusing to pivot failing strategies, tolerating low performance, and always playing hero instead of empowering others. The fixes involve delegating decisions, maintaining 80-90% coding time, using data-driven feedback loops to course-correct, upholding high standards, and teaching team members to solve problems independently.
This Reddit user laments how the modern web has become user-hostile, with intrusive popups, cookie warnings, and SEO-optimized content, which contrast sharply with the authentic, human-centered early internet of Geocities sites and hobby pages. Replies agree that while today's web is technically advanced, commercialization has replaced genuine information sharing with dark patterns and affiliate schemes, losing the egalitarian spirit that made the early internet special.

Anthropic is testing a Chrome extension that lets Claude AI directly control browsers—clicking buttons, filling forms, and managing tasks—but it's limited it to just 1,000 users due to serious security concerns. The AI proved vulnerable to prompt injection attacks where bad actors could trick it into harmful actions, with success rates dropping from 24% to 11% after safety improvements. This cautious rollout reflects Anthropic's belief that browser-controlling AI is inevitable, but it wants to iron out the risks before wider deployment.
This article traces how C code transforms from human-readable text into electrical signals your CPU can execute, going through preprocessing, compilation to assembly, binary translation, linking, OS loading, and finally CPU execution via logic gates. At the hardware level, millions of tiny AND, OR, and XOR gates process binary patterns to perform operations like addition, bridging the gap between high-level programming and actual electrical signals.

SpaceX's Starship made it all the way up to space and back down to Earth during its 10th test flight. The test appeared to achieve all of SpaceX's test objectives and puts SpaceX back on track after several failed attempts. Some problems did occur during the tests, including the shutdown of one of the booster's 33 engines, the rear flaps used for controlling the vehicle being partially burned through, and the explosion of a part of the aft portion of the spacecraft. Elon Musk recently said that SpaceX's goal of launching the first Starships to Mars (without any people aboard) by 2026 is still achievable.
Nano banana is a model from Google DeepMind that allows users to modify images with prompts. The model has unrivaled consistency across edits as it can remember details. It can also merge multiple images, combining them to generate new scenes.

There's mounting evidence that China's Guowang megaconstellation may give Chinese military forces a tactical edge in any future armed conflict in the Western Pacific. The megaconstellation is managed by a secretive company called China SatNet, established by the Chinese government in 2021. The network consists of satellites manufactured by multiple companies launched on several types of rockets. The launch pace of Guowang satellites has approached that of Starlink's in recent weeks. Guowang's satellites have higher altitude limits than Starlink satellites, so fewer units are required for global coverage.
Eli Lilly has just released positive Phase III trial results for its experimental oral GLP-1 drug, orforglipron. People taking the drug experienced substantial improvements in weight loss and blood sugar control compared to those taking a placebo. It appeared to be as safe and tolerable as other existing GLP-1 drugs. The company now plans to apply for approval from the Food and Drug Administration, with a decision expected next year.

The network tab of a browser's developer tools shows a list of requests. The dev tools UI provides a 'Copy as cURL' functionality for users to extract an executable 'replay' of the request that can be easily edited. This makes communicating and debugging issues with HTTP requests much easier. Just be careful about sharing any data that might have confidential information in it, like authentication tokens or session cookies.
There have been many claims that AI isn't progressing or that it won't create much value due to the results of a recent study. It is still early days - companies have only really had enough time to look for ways to integrate AI into existing structures. The timeline to the largest visible-in-GDP gains will take a while to show up. Future AIs will not abide by current standard economic rules.
New research by Stanford University economists shows that AI is profoundly limiting some young Americans' employment prospects. Fields where generative AI tools can most easily automate tasks, such as software development, are being affected the most. However, employment in fields where AI can help people in their work rather than replace them is improving. More about the study, which has yet to be peer reviewed or published, is available in the article.
