How I Actually Use Claude as a Backend Engineer 🤖

For a while, I treated Claude like a fancy autocomplete — ask a question, paste the answer, move on. That approach worked, but it wasn't until I slowed down and treated it more like a thinking partner that things actually clicked for my day-to-day backend work. The Mistake Most People Make 🙈 The biggest mistake I see (and made myself) is asking for a finished answer instead of walking ...

PwC Finds AI Is Raising the Skill Bar for Entry-Level Jobs Across Industries

PwC's 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer finds that AI adoption is changing the definition of an entry-level job. In the US, entry-level roles with high AI exposure are seven times more likely than the least-exposed roles to request senior, human-centric capabilities, including leadership, creativity and face-to-face interaction. The implication for employers is direct: early-career hiring can no longe...

Don't Let the AI Find Your Bugs. Let It Judge Them.

Stop Comparing Your Chapter One to Someone Else's Chapter Ten

There is a quiet kind of pain that comes from scrolling through other developers' work, seeing what they have built, how fast they seem to be moving, how confident they sound, and feeling smaller with every scroll. Nobody warns you about this part. Not the syntax, not the errors, this one. Here is what nobody tells you early enough. You are almost never actually looking at someone's beginning. Yo...

Langfuse for LLM Observability: Tracing Agent Calls Instead of Guessing

An agent makes six tool calls, picks the wrong one on step four, and the final output is garbage. You stare at your logs. You see the input. You see the output. Everything in between is a void. That's the black box problem with agentic LLM workflows, and it's the reason I started looking at Langfuse seriously. If you're running multi-step agents (LangChain, custom loops, or any orchestration laye...

Revisão de código antes do commit: agentes especializados pra cobrir o meu próprio ponto cego entre backend e frontend

O problema que ninguém nomeia até doer Quem revisa o próprio código fora da própria especialidade revisa pior — e isso vale mesmo quando o "time" é uma pessoa só. Num projeto pessoal com backend e frontend separados, meu background é forte em backend: anos de prática, um checklist de review que já vive na cabeça sem esforço. Frontend eu escrevo, mas não com a mesma profundidade — e é ex...

Give your coding agent project memory without paying for it every message

If you use an agentic coding tool — Claude Code, or anything with a persistent instructions file — you've probably hit this. You start a CLAUDE.md (or .cursorrules, or AGENTS.md) with a few conventions. It's useful. So you add the architecture. Then the gotchas. Then the three things it keeps getting wrong. Six months later it's 800 lines, and you are paying for all 800 of them on every single me...

Your MCP Server Needs a Capability Budget, Not Just Auth

Most MCP security checklists stop at “is this caller authenticated?” That is necessary, but it does not answer the operational question: what is this tool allowed to do during this run? A useful boundary is a capability budget: a short-lived, explicit contract for each tool invocation. It should constrain the action, target, resource, quantity, and expiry. The model can request a tool, but the ru...

Agent OS: tratar as instruções de um agente como sistema, não como prompt

I Built an Android App That Tracks Screens Using Computer Vision

I Built an Android App That Tracks Screens Using Computer Vision Most of my earlier projects were fairly conventional applications. They had screens. They had data. They had buttons. They had users interacting with information. Then I wanted to build something different. I wanted the application to look at the physical world through a camera and actually understand something about what it w...

The caller gave up ten minutes ago: orphaned retries in agent fleets

Originally published on Loop & Retry — field notes on building LLM agents that survive production. Bounding a fleet's retry spend assumes every retry loop is working toward something someone still wants. Shared budgets, circuit breakers, decorrelated jitter, dead-letter quarantine — all four patterns cap how much a fleet spends recovering from failure. None of them ask whether the work is sti...

IAM Roles Anywhere: AWS Access With Zero Static Keys

Every environment I have audited has the same ghost. An IAM user with an access key and a secret key. Created for a script, a cron job, a device that needed to reach AWS. It worked, so nobody touched it again. Months pass. Sometimes years. The key never rotates. And when someone finally remembers it exists, the harder question shows up: where is it configured? On which server, in which container...

Failure modes in multi-agent teams: how a crew of agents breaks differently

Originally published on Loop & Retry — field notes on building LLM agents that survive production. The pitch for multi-agent systems is redundancy and specialization: split the task, let a planner plan and a critic critique, and the whole is more reliable than the parts. Sometimes. But a team of agents also opens a class of failures that a single agent simply cannot have — failures of coordin...

It Works on Office WiFi: Shipping AR to People Who Will Not Install Anything

Every AR project I have scoped eventually arrives at the same quiet question, usually about twenty minutes into the kickoff call. Someone wants customers to see a product in their own room, we sketch the happy path, and then a person at the far end of the table says it out loud: are we really going to ask people to download an app for this? That question deserves more weight than it usually gets,...
