Building on Rented Ground
On April 22, 2026, Anthropic changed a checkbox on a pricing page. No announcement. No email. No deprecation notice. Just a quiet edit — and overnight, Claude Code disappeared from the $20/month Pro plan.

Stop Reaching out to Agents
Industry keeps pushing toward the flashiest pattern on the menu, and teams keep mistaking complexity for capability. The truth is boringly simple: you should have to be forced up the ladder, not invited.

Jeff Bezos had a simple heuristic for team size: if two pizzas can't feed the team, the team is too big. It was never really about pizza.

AI Engineering Terms You Will Memorize and then forget
LLM era has a reliable product cycle: someone coins a term, someone more famous endorses it, the internet credits the endorser, and LinkedIn does the rest.

Similarity is not Relevance
LLMs are similarity machines. Every layer — retrieval, generation, alignment — optimizes for proximity.
But similarity is geometric. Relevance is teleological.
One asks: how close? The other asks: does this help?

Amazing! A 17-year-old teenager created this while striving to understand how applications are executed: cpu.land
The book explains:
* How CPUs execute your app's instructions
* How the OS uses interrupts to switch CPUs between tasks
* The way virtual memory allocates physical memory among processes
* The processes of app compilation and linkage

Biases that distort our Decision Making:
1. Confirmation Bias - We interpret new information as confirmation of our existing beliefs.
2. Availability Bias - We tend to rely on information that comes to our mind easily/the quickest.
3. Action Bias - We favor action over inaction.
That's why we sell or buy prematurely.
4. Overconfidence - We overestimate our own knowledge and ability.
Often because we know too little to know better.
(Less knowledge => more confidence)
5. Survivorship Bias - This is a sample bias that occurs when we assess only successful outcomes and disregard failures.
What Biases do you struggle the most with?
It took me several hours to compile everything.
