The Triangle Is Closing: Are You Scooting or Being Pushed?
What happens to designers, product owners, and engineers when AI sits at the center of the production process, and what scooting toward each other actually looks like in practice.

Structural Divergence: The Metric That Doesn't Exist Yet
AI-assisted development is making individual changes faster, but who's measuring whether the codebase is drifting structurally? This post names the missing instrument: a Structural Divergence Index for detecting pattern entropy, coupling drift, and boundary erosion before they become the rewrite.

Two Different Promises: Why the AI That Helps You Write Emails Isn't the AI That Will Cure Cancer
The AI productivity promise is real. The AI civilization promise of curing Alzheimer's and cracking fusion is being made against a computational credit line that doesn't exist yet. Here's the engineering reality underneath the marketing.

The Ambiguity Frontier: Why AI Won't Replace the Architects Who Learn to Use It
A philosophical argument for the engineers who are quietly nervous, and the ones who should be.

Tekhton v2: Building the System That Builds Itself
Tekhton v1 could execute tasks. v2 can pursue milestones to completion, recover from failures, split oversized work, and harden itself against the security problems I didn't know I had. It also built most of itself.

MCP Walked So We Could Run
A proposal for native AI capability discovery and intent as a first-class HTTP primitive, replacing MCP's runtime protocol with a static JSON manifest at /.well-known/ai-capabilities for HTTP-callable APIs.

Building Tekhton, and Learning My Way Into Agent Pipelines
Building Tekhton, a multi-agent dev pipeline, forced me to learn agentic systems from the ground up. Here's what survived contact with real engineering constraints.
