Why AI agents belong in the sandbox | Darren Shepherd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why buy a sandbox when you can just launch a container? Darren Shepherd spent years at Rancher building on Kubernetes, so sandboxes looked dumb to him. Then he built his own coding agent to run 15 things in parallel without work-tree chaos, and the most interesting part of it turned out to be a sandboxing system. He had proved himself wrong. The sharp part is where the sandbox boundary goes. The common pattern keeps the agent loop outside and sandboxes only its tool calls. Darren calls that comp
Why AI Coding Made Me More Productive - And Less Happy | Dillon Mulroy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why did AI coding make Dillon Mulroy more productive and less happy? He stopped writing most of his own code after Claude Opus 4.5. Six months later he ships more than he ever has, still reads every line, and enjoys the work less. The small implementation hits that used to create flow are gone. The day is now one hard design problem after another, and that is more exhausting. Dillon is a principal engineer at Cloudflare. This episode answers what Cloudflare's May layoff of about 1,100 people loo

That permission is how you burn a codebase into ash. We get into context engineering, where AI coding actually fails, why PR review is the bottleneck, how to use specs without worshipping them, cheap models vs Opus, compaction and sub-agents, and what to tell a 20-year engineer who
