why i'm still coding by hand in 2026


Hey Reader,

You're using AI to write your Terraform files.

Your GitHub Actions pipelines. Your Kubernetes manifests.

And it works. Until it doesn't.

Then you're staring at an obscure error message in the middle of the night with no idea what went wrong.

The engineers who thrive in the AI era aren't the ones who use it the most.

They're the ones who brought something specific to the table before they ever touched it.

In this week's video, I break down what that thing is, why it changes everything about how AI actually works for you, and the exact trap most people are walking into right now. Watch it here:
