I'm soft-launching https://t.co/6mEJO9nG0g for engineering leaders. Start with simple goal tracking (UI or REST). No more Excel, no heavy dashboards. Built by AI agents. 99% of code (>100k LOC) is AI-written. Every idea, request, feedback—reviewed & prototyped by AI.

We want partnership in product strategy, not just technical execution. We understand the why before we build the what. We measure success by impact, not story points. We treat reliability as core product value. We are product creators—code is our medium. https://t.co/49kKUw2XMg

"You build it, you run it" 🧑‍✈️ Your job as an engineering leader is not about assigning tickets. You are expected to own all stages of product delivery. What does it mean? I wrote a checklist in the latest newsletter issue:

I used to write a lot on Medium. But 4x smaller audience on Substack (18k vs 4.5k) generates fewer times bigger traffic. I know no of views isn't everything, and those are different platforms, etc. But c'mon @Medium Is my writing really that bad to reach <5% of my audience? 🙄
