The idea of the “10x engineer” has always been a bit controversial. Some people see it as a myth. Some people see it as a harmful label that creates hero culture. Some people have worked with engineers who clearly create much more impact than others, and believe the idea is real. I sit somewhere in … Continue reading The new 10x Engineer with AI

How my AI workflow evolved from prompts to workflow
About six months ago, my AI workflow was already useful. I had reusable commands. I had predefined templates. I had a decent setup in Cursor and later Claude Code and Codex. It was enough to make AI generate code faster, help me plan, and reduce some repeated prompting. That was already a big step up … Continue reading How my AI workflow evolved from prompts to workflow
Tokens, Context Windows, and why your AI agent feels stupid sometimes
When an AI coding agent forgot a constraint, drifted halfway through a task, or confidently invented things that never existed, some of our first reactions are that "this model is not good enough". After using Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding agents daily for a long time, I changed my mind. When a capable … Continue reading Tokens, Context Windows, and why your AI agent feels stupid sometimes
AI Coding Agents Explained: Rules, Commands, Skills, MCP, Hooks
If you are an engineer today, the challenge is no longer whether AI can help you write code. The challenge is the flood of tools and concepts. Every few weeks, there is something new. Agents, rules, skills, sub-agents, MCP, hooks. Each introduces its own vocabulary, and most explanations jump straight into features without explaining why … Continue reading AI Coding Agents Explained: Rules, Commands, Skills, MCP, Hooks
I use AI DevKit to develop AI DevKit features
I built AI DevKit because I wanted a workflow that makes AI coding feel less random and more efficient. But I also know from experience that AI looks great when you demo it. The problem only surfaces when you rely on them to ship something non-trivial. I made a rule for myself. I would use … Continue reading I use AI DevKit to develop AI DevKit features
My Engineering Workflow in CursorAI
Every Software Engineer follows a similar rhythm: Understand requirement → Design → Plan → Implement → Review → Test → Deploy → Monitor. That hasn’t changed for a long time. When AI is involved in the workflow, what’s changed is the speed. I also mentioned this in my FREE eBook about adapting AI in Software … Continue reading My Engineering Workflow in CursorAI
