Old software engineering patterns are coming back because of coding agents. Dax Raad(dax), co-founder of AI coding agent OpenCode, on why DDD is becoming more relevant and less painful: “I think it's the same problem as always, which is how do you make code bases that are easy to... work in, scalable, that can flex to new requirements. A lot of the old patterns for me are coming back. We've always been a big domain-driven design company. We did it in a very light way. We're now doing it in a much heavier way because we find that these, kind of boring, enterprisey patterns end up being pretty useful because you have a bunch of idiots on your team now. Coding agents are a bunch of idiots. They are going to work 24/7 and they're going to ship a lot of stuff so you need way more guardrails than you used to. What's nice is some of these old patterns we hated because they were very verbose, they produced reliable code that was modular and safe but they were very verbose and annoying to type out… you're not typing it out anymore. Now you can get the benefits of these patterns without the downsides."show more

Martin Masser from ChangeNOW says banks are running software from the 70s, and crypto is how they get out "I think there was a point where we did think we would replace the banks, but that was probably 12 years ago. I think now, working parallel." "I worked in a lot of these banking systems, and do you know what, now that you've doxxed your age, a lot of the software in the banks is older than you." "They've got these legacy systems in from the '70s, and they just can't get that out because so much of that is ingrained. So you're in banking and you've got software from the '80s, '90s, '70s in there. It's just not going to be as efficient." "I think what's really interesting for the stage that we're at is there's going to be so many more things that we can do with crypto within banking." "The amount of people that are on the banking floor trying to approve settlements is crazy. We can do that in crypto really easily." "So I'm actually finding a lot more banks now are open to integrating, and they are now integrating a lot of the software, a lot of the ideas." "And I think the key thing people maybe don't realize, banks have been involved in this space for a very long time. A lot of the times they've been doing pilots, proofs of concept, little trials." "But now we're starting to see the banks integrating a lot of these systems, because they just see so many efficiencies that are there now with this."

Martin Masser from ChangeNOW says the institutions that left crypto for AI are planning to come back "Are we going to have another alt season? Are alts going to be what they are? I don't know. I think there's a lot of confidence that's been taken out." "When was the last token launch you saw? Honestly, can you remember the last time we had a token launch?" "Even then, if we exclude meme coins, I think altcoins are definitely not what they were going to be." "I definitely think there is a lot more, I don't want to say adoption, but a lot more openness to these discussions. 3-4 years ago you'd just have the door slammed in your face." "Now it's X bank, Z bank, they're all wanting to integrate this software. And they're opening it up. All of these little integrations, like accepting stablecoins, that then makes the whole ecosystem stronger." "I'm not doing predictions, but a lot of the liquidity will flow back in to where we were. Speaking to a lot of these institutions, they've gone out of crypto into AI." "And they do feel that when AI sort of cools down, where's that money going to be coming back into? Is it going to be gold? Is it silver? Is it going to be crypto?" "A lot of them are like, we're just putting it out there for the IPOs and we're coming back. A lot of people have been saying that. So that gives me a lot of confidence." "And look, the biggest marketing you can have is a big green candle."

AI is changing the software engineering craft. Anders Hejlsberg (Anders Hejlsberg) - creator of C#, TypeScript and industry legend - on why code review needs to get more enjoyable in response: #1 - AI is shifting the craft from writing code, to reviewing code: "In a sense, we're all turning into project managers. We can have an army of junior programmers, called agents, that will just spit out reams of code but someone's got to have the big picture and review all of that. And so, increasingly, our craft is going from one of writing the code, to one of reviewing the code and building the architecture of the code and overseeing the work. It's a different kind of craft. It's a different kind of enjoyment. I've always liked writing the code. To me that was the fulfilling part, seeing it work. In a way, AI robs a little bit of that, because I am less interested in reviewing code." #2 - The code review experience should be improved: "I think we could also make the process of reviewing code much more interesting than it is today. I mean, today, you see a list of diffs in alphabetical order and now it's up to you to make heads or tails of it. There are more pedagogical ways of presenting that. And you could have commentary generated by the AI that tells you what the changes are and whatever, and then tries to guide you along. So that symbiotic relationship, I think we need to work on that more and to keep the enjoyment in there."

"The world was built by people that are not much smarter than you." Replit CEO Amjad Masad on why old career advice no longer maps to reality: "There are a lot of rules that are accidental, that are there for historical reasons." "Your job is to find the path to the future. Find the way of doing things that's most aligned with where the world is headed." "It's not about cheating, it's about figuring out how the system is rigged against you. How do you actually hack it? How do you get past it?" "AI is a great tool for that." "If you're someone who just understands how these tools work, and understand how you have an amazing time advantage. You can do things a lot faster." "There are a lot of programmers that are still doing programming the old way, and they're going very, very slow... until they get obsoleted." Amjad Masad with jack neel

AI agents keep placing “landmines” in the code. Dax Raad(dax), creator of OpenCode, on why the human feedback loop kept code quality high: Dax: "We're shipping way more hacks in places where we should have just rethought the whole system from ground up or redesigned it and refactored it to make it more flexible. So I think our judgment is just off." Gergely: "Does this have to do that when I’m making a hack as an engineer, pre-AI, I know I'm making a hack. I'm thinking about it, I feel bad about it... there's kind of like a little bit of prickle there. Is it just that the agents just do it? They don't have feelings and they also suppress the effort, suppress the thinking.” Dax: "Yeah, exactly. I think the way you put it is exactly right, that prickle, that feeling that you get, it's muted now because it's kind of like you've made someone else deal with the problem. The problem is still there and the landmines are still going to blow up on you eventually, but you don't feel that bad feeling as much anymore. So your judgment is skewed. You're not getting that feedback loop."

More from Trump and Qatar gift: "I think this is just a gesture of good-faith." "It'll go to my library... I thought it was a great gesture." He says he would NOT use the plane himself after leaving office. It would basically sit in his library. "I think what happens with the plane is that, you know, we're very disappointed that it's taking Boeing so long to build a new Air Force One. You know, we have an Air Force One that's 40 years old. And if you take a look at that compared to the new plane of the equivalent, you know, stature at the time, it's not even the same ballgame. You look at some of the Arab countries and the planes they have parked alongside of the United States of America plane, it's like from a different planet." "When I came back, I said, by the way, what's going on with the Boeings that are coming in? 'Well, sir, they're way behind.' And they are way behind." "I think Qatar, who has really, we've helped them a lot over the years in terms of security and safety. I think they, and very, very nicely, and I have a lot of respect for the leadership and for the leader, Qatar. And I think they knew about it because they buy Boeings, they buy a lot of Boeings. And they knew about it and they said 'we would like to do something,' and if we can get a 747 as a contribution to our Defense Department to use during a couple of years while they're building the other ones - I think that was a very nice gesture." "Now, I could be a stupid person and say, oh, no, we don't want a free plane. We give free things out. We'll take one, too. And it helps us out because, again, we're talking about we have 40-year-old aircraft. The money we spend, the maintenance we spend on those planes to keep them tippy-top is astronomical."

🎙️Q: “You said about the schedule. That's too much tournaments. Are you players talking, like, all together to maybe stand up and say, that's enough, maybe two-weeks Masters Series probably is not good for you? I think you're playing too much, because they say you have more rest, but this is not the rest, to be honest.” Carlos Alcaraz: “Well, honestly, there are a lot of really good players on tour, and obviously each player has their own feelings. A lot of players want to play more and even more. A lot of players feel like, okay, it is a good calendar. And a lot of players say that it's really tight, a lot of tournaments during the whole year. I'm the kind of player who thinks there are a lot of tournaments during the year, mandatory tournaments, and probably during the next few years gonna be even more tournaments, more mandatory tournaments. So, I mean, probably they are going to kill us in some way (smiling). Right now, there are showing up with a lot of injuries - because of the ball, because of the calendar, because a lot of things. Probably, at some point, a lot of good players are going to miss a lot of tournaments because of that - because they have to think about their bodies, they have to take care about their lives. I mean, they have families, they have a lot of other stuff in their lives [other] than tennis. They have to take care about it, as well. It's getting too much, I guess.”

Mikel Arteta on how he handles transfer speculation with his players: "Very simple. Whatever you read, if you have a question, come and knock on my door and I will tell you whether it is true or not. If we put now the catalogue on all these walls about all the players that we wanted in the last three months, I think we need the whole building to put it on. So I think they know that there's so much speculation with a lot of players. "If ever they feel the doubt of what we think of them and if we're going to recruit a player, I tell them straight away. Normally I do it - so, 'we're going to sign somebody in their position', and normally tell them that these are the plans and these are the reasons why we have the plans. 'We still believe the same in you, but the competition is going to increase.' I prefer to do it that way."

Important reality check from WashPost's Josh Rogin about the age/condition of govt planes during after AF1 had electrical issues and turned around instead of continuing its flight to Davos.... "Over the course of 20 years of traveling on government aircraft, this happens all the time. You know, it's a really old fleet and there's a constant state of disrepair. It's much more rare for Air Force One than it is for like the planes that the vice president and the secretary of defense, the secretary of state, might fly on. But these things happen, and it's because the planes are very, very old. And so, I think the fact that they caught it early and they turned back, it shouldn't really be a big problem. But it is kind of shocking to people who don't know, but it's kind of an open secret amongst the reporters who travel with senior officials that the U.S. fleet is very old and the planes are not in good condition, and that doesn't justify taking a plane from Qatar for free or anything like that. But it's just kind of a thing that everybody knows that these are really old planes and they malfunction all the time. So, they caught it. They're going to go back, they're going to get on a couple other planes. They'll be a little late. It'll probably be okay, and they'll fix the plane. But these things happen because the U.S. government fleet is very, very old and these planes are very, very old."

Baier: I just got off the phone with the president…. I asked, “what you are saying is you know there is somebody on the ground in Iran that is going to rise up?” He said, “yeah, I feel there is. I feel that and some of them are no longer with us to be honest because it was 49 leaders that were taken out. That was going to take four weeks we thought to get rid of the Iranian leadership and it is always, you know, if they hide, it is a lot longer than four weeks. They would have been hiding. We were shocked when we heard what was going on. We knew exactly what was happening… they are talking about using people now that nobody ever heard of—even they don't know. They are using people, studying people to be the leader that even they don't know who they are. Can you believe that?” I said it's a tough succession plan in Iran. He said, “49 leaders is deep. It's very deep. When they met, they met for breakfast. They assumed it was good for a lot of reasons. Number one they didn't think we knew. You never attack in the morning having to do with wind and sun and a lot of things. It was amazing that we knew everything we knew.”

Martin Casado says Cursor's founders spend 30-40% of their time on hiring and culture, and that focus is how they iterate so fast: "A lot of these AI companies that I work with are so research-heavy. If you're not working on a new model architecture, it's kind of hard to actually interest the core teams." "They always kept the main thing the main thing, which is changing how you write software. They believed fundamentally it was a product problem... The model's very, very important, but it was a product problem." "There's actually not a lot of companies that are actually focused on product... There's a lot of research companies... But they were like, 'We are a product company.' And I think that's actually a key differentiator in this era." martin_casado w/ sophia dew and Theo Jaffee on MTS

"If you have ambitions to be a Professor at Yale, Harvard, or one of these big institutions, the way you do that is mostly by getting funding for research. It's by getting a lot of publishing - a lot flying around the world to talk about something. You need all of these things to bolster your reputation as an international expert in this area. Now, the best way to do that, at least in psychiatry but I suspect in other areas of medicine, is actually to collaborate with pharmaceutical companies to run clinical trials. They write the publications for you - most of it, they do a lot of the grunt work, they give you the protocols, and then, essentially, they fund you and fly you around the place. I used to remember, as a junior doctor, looking up to the Professors. And they would say, 'These drugs are safe and effective. There's not a lot of problems there.' ...What I've seen more and more is that they've been compromised, and that they have incentives tied to the money and to career advancement. That means that they can't be as forthright as they ought to be about these things. And it's gotten to a problem where these are the Professors who are training the doctors who are setting the tone for what is acceptable care out there. And I think that's one of the biggest problems out there." - @taperclinic

Jensen Huang just said this is the greatest era in history to build software. AI agents will not kill software. They will do the exact opposite: create a massive new wave of software demand. at NVIDIA GTC Taipei 2026 "Click and type. We now replace that with explaining to the AI what we want, our intent, and the AI generates the code or uses tools to produce the necessary output. This is how computers are going to work in the future. This is Agentic AI. For two years, we've been building toward this, and now it has arrived. One of the big breakthroughs, of course, is tool use. A lot of people have said, “Jensen, AI is coming. Agentic AI is coming. Therefore, all the software companies are going to go out of business.” This is exactly the opposite. Because there are going to be so many agents, the world is no longer limited by the number of people. Therefore, those agents are going to use more tools than ever. This is actually an incredible time to be a software company. But the software has to be presented to the agent in a way that the agent can use it. This is a big breakthrough.

Jensen Huang just said this is the greatest era in history to build software. AI agents will not kill software. They will do the exact opposite: create a massive new wave of software demand. at NVIDIA GTC Taipei 2026 "Click and type.

Mark Zuckerberg: AI will make it much easier for anyone to start a company. “A bunch of the stuff you need to make a company work, AI can now do better than the average person doing it.” “That makes it so more companies can get started more easily.” “Way more people can focus on what their core idea is and execute on that.” “You can have a core, talent-dense team focused on the idea.” “More of the stuff that isn’t core to building your company is going to be offloaded.”

Arteta on the players battling a physical strain: “Yes, but when I see them track back, when we lose the ball and the habits that they have, it's just amazing. That's why I know what they are doing, these players. There is a reason why we are the only English team in the competition, because this league and this schedule takes the hell out of you and it's very difficult to do what we've done. “We are not perfect, we need to improve things, that's for sure, we recognise that, but let's value what these players have done because they deserve it.”

Datadog CISO Emilio Escobar says intent is now a must-have for AI security solutions: "These agents are trained on existing code, and they have a reward structure. If code is meant to solve the bug, but it gets rewarded on that, it doesn't care if it's doing something else outside of that." "You have to be careful how you prompt these things, but also how it actually interprets your prompt and executes on that. So we have this judge now evaluating the code output of the agents to then make sure that we're doing that." "I did a roundtable last week about agentic security, and the sense that I got from a bunch of the security leaders was a sense of helplessness. Of just waiting for a commercial solution to come in and solve it all." Emilio Escobar Datadog, Inc.

Tony Robbins explains why pattern recognition is one of the most powerful skills for success “You’ve got to become a student of history. There are patterns that are so clear. If you can recognize patterns, you can learn quickly and you won’t live in fear because it won’t feel like random things are happening to you” “You have to look at the people who actually succeeded and find out what happened in their lives, what they went through to create that pattern. That’s what I did early on. I went and studied them”

Amp co-founder Beyang says people who think coding agents will replace humans are living in a "dismal fantasy land": "There's a lot of hype around coding agents replacing humans entirely, or agents in general replacing jobs. The capabilities of agents are evolving at a fast pace, but fundamentally they still do what you ask them to do." "What is very apparent to us in using agents day to day is that human intervention, that human guidance is still essential. If anything, it's more essential. Because if you have the wrong guidance in place, the cost of going off the rails, you can very quickly rack up a ton of token cost." "The whole, this is gonna make humans obsolete thing is just way over-hyped, to the point where some folks are living in a dismal fantasy land." Amp

AI power users are here and the case for agent-friendly software is materializing. Aaron Levie on agents outnumbering people 1000x: "If you start to imagine that we all have to build software for agents… we spend as much time now thinking about the agent interface to our tool as we do the human interface." "If you have a hundred or a thousand times more agents than people, then your software has to be built for agents… it's going to be through an API or a CLI or MCP." "What if you give a coding agent access to your SaaS tools and a coding agent access to your knowledge work, workflows and context?" "It can actually code its way or use APIs through whatever task it's trying to achieve." "That appears to be like a paradigm that is starting to compound… and I actually think it kind of makes sense as the ultimate manifestation of this stuff." Aaron Levie

Jason Calacanis: AI is the End of Coding as We Know It “People were lamenting how something has been lost in developing code because coders used to work together to solve a problem, and there was this esprit de corps, there was this camaraderie in building towards a goal. And now they're not working with each other, they're working with agents. They're not actually constructing the code. They're only reviewing 10-15% of it now, which means they're going to be reviewing none of it very shortly. And that the whole joy of building as a coder was basically going away. Their way of life, of building this building together, known as software, was now being deprecated. It was going away. And it seems to be a paradigm shift in which they're not solving the problem, they're constructing the problem set and handing it off to AI.”
