Tune your expertise

AI makes coding faster and easier. Expert judgment keeps it from becoming slop.

Despite so much changing around us, much remains the same. When the number of contributors, ideas, and generated solutions grows inside any org or codebase, quality naturally trends toward entropy. Experts are the ones who mitigate it.

Technical skills like consistency, discoverability, testing, and resiliency evolved to preserve quality at scale. The hard skills of communication and collaboration help systems work across teams, not just inside isolated features.

These skills need to be mastered sooner than they used to, because they are how AI slop gets mitigated.

I want to share 15 years of contributor and leadership experience so you can level up faster than I did. I want to embrace the discomfort of all this change with you.

Let’s evolve together. We got this.
