I’m significantly older than you. I started coding in the late 60s. My current strategy is to not read any of the code written by my agents. That’s the only way I can take advantage of their productivity. What I do instead is to surround the agents with extreme constraints. Unit tests, gherkin tests, QA procedures, quality metrics, mutation testing, test coverage, and a plethora of others. In the end, I have very high confidence in the code they produce because they’ve had to run the gauntlet of all of my constraints and tests.

People spend $200/month on frontier AI models & complain they aren't getting as much as they want from it for knowledge work.
I spent the weekend mapping the AI research workflows being used across biotech, pharma, clinical intelligence, and drug discovery
I documented it

Just off stage at #GoogleIO, some highlights from this morning 🧵
Gemini 3.5 Flash is available today for everyone in @antigravity and across our products and APIs.
Compared to 3.1 Pro, 3.5 Flash is better across almost all benchmarks with huge progress in coding. It’s also comparable to the best models but very fast (4x faster tokens/ second than other frontier models). And when looking at the intelligence versus output speed, it’s in a league of its own in the top right quadrant.
Google is basically saying:
“We’ve cut the quantum resources needed to break Bitcoin’s encryption by 20x. We can now break it. We can prove it. We’re just not going to tell you how.
We’ve slowed down research to give crypto a chance. You have until 2029 to figure out a solution. Good luck.”
Ideas come quick. 💡

Copilot is powerful—but it gets dramatically better when you give it the right context.
Here are 4 practical context-engineering techniques to improve Copilot’s accuracy 🧵👇
With Apple Pay, your real card number never really leaves your device. When you add your card, the bank creates a special replacement number called a Device Account Number (DAN). That DAN is stored securely inside the phone’s Secure Enclave chip, not on Apple’s servers. When you pay, your phone sends this DAN plus a one-time cryptographic code to the merchant. The merchant never sees your real card, and Apple doesn’t process the transaction itself. It’s basically: phone → bank → done. Everything sensitive stays on the device.
With Google Pay, the idea is similar but the path is different. Instead of storing everything only on the device chip, Google often uses cloud tokenization. Your card info is linked to Google’s servers, which generate payment tokens during transactions. When you tap to pay, a token is fetched/created and sent to the merchant, then validated by the bank. So it’s more like: phone → Google server → bank. Still secure, but it relies more on the cloud.
So both systems hide your real card number. Apple leans more toward hardware-based security (on-device chip), while Google leans more toward server/cloud-based token management.
In simple terms:
Apple Pay locks your card inside your phone.
Google Pay locks your card behind Google’s servers.
Either way, the shop never gets your real card details; which is why mobile payments are often safer than swiping your physical card.
Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.
$30 per seat per month.
$1.4 million annually.
I called it "digital transformation."
The board loved that phrase.
They approved it in eleven minutes.
No one asked what it would actually do.
Including me.
I told everyone it would "10x productivity."
That's not a real number.
But it sounds like one.
HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.
I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."
They stopped asking.
Three months later I checked the usage reports.
47 people had opened it.
12 had used it more than once.
One of them was me.
I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.
It took 45 seconds.
Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.
But I called it a "pilot success."
Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.
The CFO asked about ROI.
I showed him a graph.
The graph went up and to the right.
It measured "AI enablement."
I made that metric up.
He nodded approvingly.
We're "AI-enabled" now.
I don't know what that means.
But it's in our investor deck.
A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.
I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."
He asked what that meant.
I said "compliance."
He asked which compliance.
I said "all of them."
He looked skeptical.
I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."
He stopped asking questions.
Microsoft sent a case study team.
They wanted to feature us as a success story.
I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."
I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.
They didn't verify it.
They never do.
Now we're on Microsoft's website.
"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."
The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.
He got 3,000 likes.
He's never used Copilot.
None of the executives have.
We have an exemption.
"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."
I wrote that policy.
The licenses renew next month.
I'm requesting an expansion.
5,000 more seats.
We haven't used the first 4,000.
But this time we'll "drive adoption."
Adoption means mandatory training.
Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.
But completion will be tracked.
Completion is a metric.
Metrics go in dashboards.
Dashboards go in board presentations.
Board presentations get me promoted.
I'll be SVP by Q3.
I still don't know what Copilot does.
But I know what it's for.
It's for showing we're "investing in AI."
Investment means spending.
Spending means commitment.
Commitment means we're serious about the future.
The future is whatever I say it is.
As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
