GOTO ConferencesAI Agents Will Break You Without Platform Engineering
AI agents without a solid platform amplify chaos, not productivity. This interview argues platform engineering is the prerequisite for safe, sovereign AI.
InfoQBeating Google Analytics: 3x Cheaper, 97% Data Quality
Delivery Hero replaced Google Analytics with a custom system: 3x cheaper, 97% data accuracy vs. 85%. Real-world lessons on build vs. buy and data governance.
GOTO ConferencesFlaky Tests Ruin More Than Velocity—They Kill Trust
This talk deconstructs how better test design and tooling—not more AI—speed up delivery.
Google for DevelopersWhy Android is Hiding AI from Users
Android’s shift to an intent-to-action OS, with agentic features and new trust models, signals a UX paradigm change beyond AI hype.
AI JasonDeterministic Code Graphs Slash Agent Token Waste—No LLM Needed
A programmatic code graph halved coding agent token usage in one test—no better model required. Is the indexing tradeoff worth it?
IBM TechnologyWhy Your GPU Isn't the Bottleneck—It's Memory Fragmentation
Memory fragmentation, not model size, bottlenecks LLM inference. VLLM’s paged attention doubles throughput by reclaiming wasted GPU memory.

OpenAI’s token efficiency exposes a hidden AI cost war. Leaked traces show models think in terse “grug speak,” slashing task costs but killing transparency.
AI EngineerEscaping Skill Hell: A Framework for Teams
When agent skills fail unpredictably, poor design is often at fault. This framework helps leaders enforce quality and tradeoff awareness across skill libraries.
GOTO ConferencesWhen Platforms Become Innovation Engines, Not Just Shared Services
Most platforms fail as glorified infrastructure or rigid standards. Gregor Hohpe shows how to build ones enabling speed and innovation.
InfoQWhy Local-First Is Ready to Challenge Your Cloud-Only Stack
