Linux Hit 10% Desktop Market Share. Or Did It?
StatCounter says Linux just crossed 10% desktop share in North America. The real number, once you filter out bots, is closer to 4.7%. Here is what the headline actually means.
Software Factories Are Here and Engineers Are Now Operators
Factory just said the quiet part out loud. Engineers don't write software anymore. They build the factories that write the software. Here is what that actually means.
I Built a Skill That Turns Claude Into a Project Manager
A single command that decomposes a plan, spins up parallel sub-agents in isolated git worktrees, runs QA, tracks costs, and delivers a tabbed HTML report. Here is how /buildthis works, why I built it, and how to install it.
Nobody Gets Above a C+: The AI Safety Index, Graded
The Future of Life Institute just graded nine AI companies on safety. The best score? C+. Three companies failed outright. Here is what the data actually says.
Atoms, Bits, and Moats: Why the Next Defensible Companies Will Be Built in the Physical World
Travis Kalanick just raised $1.7B for a company called Atoms. His framework for atoms-based computation reveals why software moats are eroding and physical-world companies are becoming the most defensible businesses of the next decade.
Five Steps of AI Adoption and Why Most Teams Are Stuck on Step One
Boris Cherny published a framework for AI adoption that maps the journey from gated access to thousands of autonomous agents. Most engineering teams think they are further along than they are. Here is how to tell where you actually stand.
The Anti-MCP Alliance Built a Protocol That Needs MCP to Work

The Computer You Grow
Scientific Reports published an analog AI chip you farm, not fabricate: 3M per harvest, under a dollar, and it composts. The science of grown computers.
The Heat Wall: Why the Fastest Chips Are Turning to Diamond
Modern chips are heat-limited, not transistor-limited. Diamond is the best heat conductor on Earth, and a funded effort is now wrapping silicon and GaN in
