When Claude Code's creator claimed 'coding is solved,' the GitHub repository with 5,000+ issues told a different story. This article explores why AI programming tools still struggle with real-world software complexity and what developers actually need in 2026.
The panic around AI replacing developers stems from misunderstanding what AI actually is. These systems aren't intelligent—they're sophisticated prediction engines that require human oversight, maintenance, and integration. Understanding this distinction changes everything about how we should approach AI in development.
Elon Musk's prediction that we'll 'skip the code' and ship binaries directly from AI misses what makes compilers work. Here's why source code remains essential and what the real future of AI-assisted development looks like.
Tech communities are being flooded with AI-generated 'slop apps' - poorly made tools promoted by AI agents. Learn how to spot these fake solutions and find genuinely useful tools for your development workflow.
Spotify's CEO claims their best developers haven't written code since December 2025 thanks to AI. We separate the hype from reality with insights from actual developers and examine what this means for the future of software engineering.
PHP powers most of the web but faces constant criticism. We explore whether the hate stems from historical baggage, legitimate concerns, or just developer tribalism in 2026.
A staggering 96% of engineers express skepticism about AI-generated code, yet nearly half don't verify it. This trust gap reveals critical challenges in AI adoption that every developer needs to understand and address in their workflow.
With Postman's free tier ending in 2026, developers need alternatives. We've spent over a year building DevTools Studio—an open-source, local-first API client that combines Postman's familiarity with n8n-style visual workflows. Here's why it matters.
New research suggests 'vibe coding'—the trend of prioritizing aesthetics and personal expression over functionality—is eroding open source software quality. This comprehensive guide explores the phenomenon, its impact, and practical solutions for developers.
Heroku's 2026 announcement about transitioning to a sustaining engineering model has developers asking if the platform is dying. We break down what this really means, analyze the implications for current users, and explore practical alternatives for your projects.
Vibe coding promises effortless development through intuition and flow states, but many developers find it leads to technical debt and poor quality. Here's why this approach fails and what actually works instead.
The ClawBot incident exposed critical vulnerabilities in how developers handle third-party integrations. This comprehensive guide explores what went wrong and provides actionable strategies to protect your projects from similar attacks.
