    “Tickling the Wires: Hilarious Tales from the Tech Support Trenches”

    ByGlen Rhodes April 22, 2024May 9, 2024

    In the world of 10-digit error codes and countless hours spent troubleshooting, tech support professionals are the unsung heroes who keep our digital lives running smoothly. They are the patient, compassionate frontline warriors who, despite facing a relentless barrage of problems, never shy away from going the extra mile to fix them. There’s no denying,…

    Agent reliability comes from information architecture, not prompt quality. Scoping context deliberately is the real engineering skill.

    ByGlen Rhodes February 28, 2026

    The Context Window Is Your Architecture Most engineers treat agents the way they treat prompts. Write the instructions, run the loop, fix what breaks, repeat. I did this too. I spent weeks tweaking system prompts, adding more specific language, stacking examples, and wondering why my agents kept doing something subtly wrong on step four of…

    Apple Xcode 26.3 integrates Claude and Codex with MCP support, threatening standalone iOS vibe coding apps

    ByGlen Rhodes February 28, 2026

    Apple Just Weaponized Xcode Against the AI Coding App Market This one deserves more attention than it’s getting. On February 27, Apple pushed Xcode 26.3 to the Mac App Store. Greg Joswiak announced it directly: “Xcode 26.3 with Claude Agent and Codex hits the Mac App Store today! With advanced reasoning capabilities in Xcode, you…

    Anthropic Skills guide formalizes structured execution design over prompt engineering for Claude agents

    ByGlen Rhodes February 27, 2026

    Anthropic Just Formalized What Good Agent Builders Already Knew Anthropic published a 30-page guide on building Skills for Claude, and I think the framing matters more than the technical details inside it. They’re not calling this prompt engineering. They’re calling it execution design. That shift in language is deliberate, and it reflects something real about…

    Clarity and thinking as the real bottleneck in AI-assisted engineering, not model selection or tooling

    ByGlen Rhodes February 27, 2026

    Thinking Is the Bottleneck. Not the Model. There is a conversation happening right now in almost every engineering team I know, and it goes something like this: “Are we on Claude or GPT-4o? Should we switch to Gemini? What about the new Llama release?” The debate sounds productive. It feels like due diligence. It is…

    Jack Dorsey’s Block layoffs as a signal that AI-driven workforce restructuring is already happening at profitable companies

    ByGlen Rhodes February 27, 2026

    Block Just Told You the Quiet Part Out Loud Jack Dorsey cut Block from over 10,000 employees to just under 6,000. That’s more than 4,000 people gone in a single move. And the reason he gave wasn’t the usual cost-cutting boilerplate. It was something far more honest, and far more unsettling if you’re paying attention….

    Claude Sonnet 4.6 capability compression, AI pricing commoditization

    ByGlen Rhodes February 27, 2026

    The Capability Cliff Is Steeper Than Anyone Expected Three months. That’s how long it took for Anthropic’s best model to become the free tier. Claude Sonnet 4.6 just landed, and the headline number that stopped me cold is this: users now prefer it over Opus 4.5 for coding tasks 59% of the time. Opus 4.5…

    Nvidia Vera Rubin — 10x Cheaper Inference Changes Everything

    ByGlen Rhodes February 26, 2026

    Vera Rubin Changes the Math, Not Just the Hardware I’ve been sitting with Nvidia’s Vera Rubin announcement for a few days now, and the number I can’t stop thinking about isn’t the one everyone leads with. It’s not the 10x performance-per-watt improvement over Blackwell. It’s the inference token cost. Because that one doesn’t just improve…

    Quantum Computing: The Key to Artificial Superintelligence

    ByGlen Rhodes January 22, 2025January 22, 2025

    The path to artificial superintelligence (ASI) may not be through classical computing at all. As we push the boundaries of artificial intelligence, we’re beginning to encounter fundamental limitations in our current computing paradigms. The solution, and the key to achieving true superintelligence, likely lies in quantum computing – but not in the way most people…
