What’s something you have a very strong opinion on as a software engineer/dev?

[CyrilXBT @cyrilXBT]

GITHUB JUST CREATED AN OFFICIAL CERTIFICATION FOR THE MOST IN-DEMAND DEVELOPER ROLE OF 2026.

It is called Agentic AI Developer.

GH-600.

And it is the first formal signal that running AI agent teams is now a recognized engineering discipline with a credential behind it.

Not a prompt engineer.

Not a vibe coder.

An Agentic AI Developer.

The person who operates, supervises, and integrates AI agents across the entire software development lifecycle.

The person who knows where agents fail in production.

The person who understands how to build autonomous workflows that do not introduce catastrophic failure modes into CI/CD pipelines.

The person every engineering team is going to need and almost none of them have right now.

GitHub certifying this role changes the hiring conversation permanently.

Before GH-600: "Do you work with AI agents?" is an interview question with no standard answer.

After GH-600: the credential tells the hiring manager exactly what you know and what you can do before the interview starts.

The engineers who get certified in the first wave of GH-600 will have a credential for a role that has more demand than supply for the next 3 to 5 years.

The engineers who wait until it is mainstream will be competing with everyone who moved first.

If you are already working with GitHub Copilot or building agent-driven workflows you are already doing this job.

GH-600 is how you prove it.

Claude Code creator:

"I don't prompt Claude anymore. I write loops - and the loops do the work. My job is to write loops."

in 30 minutes Boris reveals his actual daily Claude Code setup.

Claude Code + loops + dynamic workflow

Worth more than a $500 vibe-coding course

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

We've changed the trigger word from "workflow" to "ultracode".

You can still say "use a workflow for this", but when you're clearly referring to something else, Claude won't kick off a dynamic workflow. For an explicit trigger, use "ultracode". We appreciate the feedback!

How do we automate business analytics with Claude?

Introducing 30 days of AI.

For the next 30 weekdays, I’m going to share one observation per day from the frontlines of AI.

I have the privilege of co-running an enterprise AI transformation firm, where I experience the edges of this technology, see the biggest challenges the biggest companies are facing, and have deep relationships with companies on the frontier (Anthropic, OpenAI, Lovable, Cursor, Perplexity, Vercel).

I get to live in the future for free, and I want to bring that future to those trying to disrupt themselves before they get disrupted.

There’s just two rules:

1) Each observation is actionable & understandable to the non-technical leader.
2) I can’t miss a day.

Post 1 coming soon.

JOB INTERVIEW:
"Tell me about a conflict with a coworker."

Most candidates say:
"We had different working styles, but we sat down, talked it through, and found common ground. It made us stronger as a team."

THE WINNING ANSWER:

[Catalin @catalinmpit]

I've deployed my Hermes agent on a Hetzner VPS.

The security measures I've taken so far:
- Installed Tailscale and restricted SSH access to Tailscale IPs only
- Blocked all ports except 80 and 443
- Restricted ports 80 and 443 to Cloudflare IP ranges only
- Enabled and configured UFW
- Disabled password SSH login

Need to add:
- fail2ban

What else should I do?

@CostHawkAI Interesting enough to keep an eye on

[Leila Clark @leilavclark]

Everyone is ragging on Jared for this, but he’s absolutely right

AI agents *are* incredibly productive with prod db access.

If you’re a vibe coder with no idea how a database works, this is obviously insane. But if you’re a professional software engineer and systems thinker like Jared, you’ve already set up guardrails and best practices so your agent doesn’t do anything bad.

eg you probably have backups, you’ve set up docs/an md file to define prohibited actions, you probably use an ORM defined in code… and if an incident happens, you do a post mortem and figure out how to improve your system

This is all stuff we’ve been doing for decades. And Claude is much smarter than the average new dev!

[cat @_catwu]

Excited to share our most powerful new Claude Code feature: dynamic workflows!

Mention "workflow" in a prompt and Claude will dynamically create an orchestration plan that it strictly follows, allowing you to confidently trust that every stage happens in the right order even across 100s of agents.

Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors.

Available today at the same price.

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

We’ve been putting a lot of effort into making Claude Code more responsive & reliable.

Here’s an update on everything we’ve done:

[techchelle @techchelle]

Unrelated by I love my state so much

[Chris Nelson 🏝️🇺🇸 @ReOpenChris]

🚨Governor DeSantis says transplants from other states will have to PAY TAXES FOR FIVE YEARS before they are eligible for property tax elimination under his proposal to prevent mass migration.

FLORIDA IS FULL!

“If this passes and everyone can just move here and then claim the no tax, well that's not going to make it as good for Floridians. And so what this does is it says if you establish residence after this passes, that we can insist on up to FIVE YEARS of you paying tax under the old system like all the Floridians have been doing for all these years, then you can qualify for what we're doing.”
