Jeff Dean: The rule 1% for AI products (AI column)
Jeff Dean: The rule 1% for AI products (Rubric AI ) Video Watching Jeff Dean is always interesting and informative. He can start with a story about MapReduce or calculation on a napkin, and after a few minutes to bring the conversation to the architecture of the next generation of systems. I've told you about him before. TED Talk, major lecture at Rice University, Interview with Noam Shazier and A retrospective of AI development at Stanford AI Club. Now I've looked.

Code of Leadership S2E8: Digital Teamlead or Can Developer Performance Be Measured by Code? (Filed under DevEx)
Code of Leadership S2E8: Digital Teamlead or Can Developer Performance Be Measured by Code? (Rubric DevEx ) Are your developers working on 100%? And is it possible to answer this question by code at all - without tables, additional reports and subjective assessment of the head? And if there was a downturn in the work - to distinguish the underboot from a complex legashi, tech debt, unfamiliar technology or a month of heavy debugging?

Sonar and the Star Hour of Verifiers (Category AI4SDLC)
Sonar and the Star Hour of Verifiers (Rubric AI4SDLC ) Sonar as a product has been around for almost twenty years and has been popular in its niche all along: static analysis, quality gates, bug search, vulnerabilities and code smells. But now the company has begun a real dust. Agents generate code as if it were not in themselves - for everyone at once. Manual control of quality is becoming increasingly difficult. And here comes Sonar with its deterministic rules. And not just them. And so I looked.

How AI-native development is changing the role of products
How AI-native development is changing the role of products I got myself an interesting thought. The product manager’s routine ends faster than many people notice. In AI-native development, a product ceases to be an interface between “business” and engineers. He needs to go into the data himself, assemble a prototype with the agent, formulate evals and acceptance criteria, understand the cost and risks.

Frank Coyle on Ontology: Logic Outside the Probabilistic Agent (Rubric AI ) Watch the twenty-minute report by Frank Coyle.Why Agentic Systems Need OntologiesAI Engineer World's Fair 2026. I’ve had a complicated relationship with the word “ontology” for a long time: in conversations about architecture, it was almost a stop word. Too often, this terminology has been used by people who are very far from practice: instead of a working contract, it has been an attempt to classify the whole world first. That seems to be changing now.

State of AI4SDLC on HighLoad++: where development bottlenecks are moving (Rubric AI4SDLC ) Appeared. record My performance at Saint HighLoad + + 2026, slides and abstract. The report was about what happens when the local acceleration of coding gets into the engineering system of a large company. 10 000+ engineers. The answer is simple: AI speeds up code writing before the organization has time to rebuild the entire supply stream. Therefore, the bottleneck does not disappear, but moves to task setting, review, testing, integration and release.

AI Dev Podcast 8Autonomy of the agent begins with limitations. (Rubric AI4SDLC ) Out. The new AI Dev Podcast, in which we, together with Vladimir Yatulchik and Andrei Dmitriev, figured out how to move from vibe coding to managed agent development. TLDR: A standalone agent becomes useful not when it is allowed to write as much code as possible, but when it is embedded in a reproducible engineering process. The more work we delegate to an agent, the clearer the intent, limitations, acceptance criteria, and limits of his rights must be.

AI development as a stack: what to rent, adapt and build yourself (Category AI4SDLC)
AI development as a stack: what to rent, adapt and build yourself (Rubric AI4SDLC ) Over the past year, I have been actively engaged in the topic of AI development at the level of a large company. On such a scale, you quickly cease to solve only operational problems: you need to define the target picture, agree on what the engineering system should become, and build a strategy for transition to it. We set goals and strategy as well. But as I moved, I started catching myself with a few less pleasant thoughts.

Philipp Schmid on agent skills: first eval, then post (Category AI4SDLC)
Philipp Schmid on agent skills: first eval, then post (Rubric AI4SDLC ) Watched a short talk by Philipp Schmid of Google DeepMindDon't Ship Skills Without EvalsThe basic thesis is simple: skill changes the behavior of an agent, so releasing it without checking is like changing code without testing. Schmid suggests checking not whether the agent has read SKILL.md, but the result of the work. To do this, each skill needs a small set of tasks: where it should connect, where it should not and what result is considered correct.

It’s a good fifteen-minute route on a topic that’s often boiled down to “correlation doesn’t mean causation.” The main thesis here is more practical: before assessing the effect of an action, it is necessary to restore at least a plausible structure of causes.

Published. longrid about the configurations of the agent stack. The dispute is usually reduced to a choice between “own OpenCode” and “alien Claude Code or Codex”, but this is a false fork: the binding, model and tools are selected separately, and control is needed over the entire chain from data and identity to actual action in the system. I analyzed eight stack options: their TCO, lock-in, characteristic failures and security boundaries. Sovereignty and security are properties of the entire architecture, not a single component.
