    She Vibe Coded A Successful Business With Claude (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Dallas Davenport is founder of Aivara, an AI automation marketing agency. We met in a Skool group when I offered to look at her app, and I fully expected a vibe-coded dumpster fire (I've dunked on plenty of those). Instead it was complex, it already had users, and it was pretty freaking good. The app is dealership software that replies to customer messages, pulls live inventory off the lot, and automates a bunch of other stuff car dealers deal with. She built it with Claude and she's not a softw

    A step by step guide to building an AI-powered side project (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Quite simply, I lay out EXACTLY what I'd build if I were trying to set myself up as an AI engineer. The type of project, the concepts and the tools to learn and why. I genuinely believe that in 2-3 years, the people who learn this stuff will have a massive advantage in the market. You can pick up the project here: https://www.parsity.io/ai-eng-side-project

    I Let AI Write My Code. Then I Read It... (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    Want to get into the top 10% of your engineering team by leveraging agentic engineering workflows? I'm planning a 2 day workshop here: https://form.typeform.com/to/EDuBEz4U I shipped a feature with AI in record time. Then I actually read the code. 60+ files. Weird abstractions. Tests that technically passed but proved almost nothing. Components rebuilt from scratch for no good reason. What looked like a finished feature was probably 70–80% of the way there. And the worst part? This wasn’t my fir

    The WORST AI Career Path: Meat Proxy (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I'm opening 12 spots for a weekend workshop in October for devs who want to ship quality software with agents. Sign up here: https://form.typeform.com/to/EDuBEz4U "You're absolutely right, I should have caught that" I'm one of the top 10% of AI users in a 1,000-person engineering org this year. I'm not an AI hater, I ship with these tools daily and I think they're genuinely fun to use. But I've also watched "customers don't care about the code" turn into an excuse for engineers to stop thinking

    What Companies Hiring Forward-Deployed Engineers Actually Want (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Become an AI Engineer at parsity.io I recruit for AI roles on the side and I pulled real, live forward-deployed engineer postings and broke down exactly what they're screening for. Turns out it's not what most "learn AI" content tells you. What's actually in these postings: Real applied AI experience: shipped production agents, not tutorial chatbots RAG, retrieval quality, evals, and agent-to-agent communication Surprisingly low years-of-experience requirements compared to typical senior roles T
