Four weeks working in pair programming Pair programming is a technique that might help you to reduce the bottleneck that a Pull Request represents for your team at the time of reviewing the code.

How do you pair program in the dawn of AI Agents?

How Pixar’s Open Sexism Ruined My Dream Job (Guest Column) A former Pixar employee writes that after John Lasseter's departure, the company still has a lot of work to do to fix its sexist culture.

So, the outage comes because a missile impacted AWS infrastructure

Choose wisely the way to deliver your MCP.

Nowadays, delivering MCP servers via Docker is my preferred choice because it offers a good balance between performance and version management.

Some (more than I thought!) software engineers are coming to me saying:

"Marcos, I’m scared about the AI, I think it will take over my job"

I say:

"No f*cking way"

But you don’t need to trust me, trust more expert people who are living in tech for much more than you and I.
