Beyond Vibe Coding: What Engineers Must Do When Code Becomes a Black Box

The article analyzes risks of AI-generated 'vibe coding' where engineers lose internal code understanding, detailing consequences like hidden architectural decay, loss of tacit production knowledge, and inability to debug complex failures, then proposes practical strategies: defining white-box boundaries, independent verification, limiting change scope, retaining takeover capability, preserving dark knowledge, and reallocating engineering time toward constraint design and failure recovery.

Engineering Leadership: Shifting from Problem Solving to Problem Discovery

This article details how engineering managers can evolve from reactive problem-solving to proactive problem discovery by questioning task origins, validating early signals, designing limited experiments, balancing delegation with intervention, and verifying post-launch outcomes, using concrete examples like latency optimization trade-offs and release risk management.

Agent Loop Termination: DeepSeek Harness vs Pi Architecture Deep Dive

This article compares how DeepSeek Harness and Pi determine when an agent loop ends, analyzing their multi-layer boundary models, state machines, turn/step debt tracking, stop hooks, tool conclusion semantics, cancellation handling, reason taxonomies, goal-driven outer loops, and the engineering trade-offs between a heavyweight event-sourced runtime and a lightweight embeddable kernel.

Why Session‑First and Agent‑First Are Different, Not Better or Worse

The article analyses the Session‑First and Agent‑First paradigms for AI‑enabled software, outlining how Session‑First hides complexity in long chat sessions for rapid product launch, while Agent‑First restructures systems around autonomous agents with explicit APIs, documentation, security and observability, and advises when each approach is appropriate.

Why Slowing Down Is Essential for Engineers in the AI Era

In the AI era, the ease of generating code and answers amplifies the risk of shallow decisions, so engineers must deliberately introduce cognitive friction—through writing, reflection, and measured judgment—to preserve deep thinking and avoid costly mistakes.
