Why AI agents belong in the sandbox | Darren Shepherd

Épisode 23

jeudi 24 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:33:08

Why buy a sandbox when you can just launch a container? Darren Shepherd spent years at Rancher building on Kubernetes, so sandboxes looked dumb to him. Then he built his own coding agent to run 15 things in parallel without work-tree chaos, and the most interesting part of it turned out to be a sandboxing system. He had proved himself wrong. The sharp part is where the sandbox boundary goes. The common pattern keeps the agent loop outside and sandboxes only its tool calls. Darren calls that completely flawed, because the loop itself directs code that holds secrets and talks to external systems. His answer: put the agent and its tools in one sandbox, with one policy for secrets and egress. Darren is on X and GitHub at @ibuildthecloud. https://obot.ai/ Where does your boundary sit: around the agent itself, or only around the tools it calls?

Why AI Coding Made Me More Productive - And Less Happy | Dillon Mulroy

Épisode 22

jeudi 10 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:04:30

Why did AI coding make Dillon Mulroy more productive and less happy? He stopped writing most of his own code after Claude Opus 4.5. Six months later he ships more than he ever has, still reads every line, and enjoys the work less. The small implementation hits that used to create flow are gone. The day is now one hard design problem after another, and that is more exhausting. Dillon is a principal engineer at Cloudflare. This episode answers what Cloudflare's May layoff of about 1,100 people looked like from inside, why lab-style agent loops are a poor default for most teams, and how he keeps a model on a short leash with Ghostty, Herdr, Pi, and Plannotator. Specs are TypeScript types, call stacks, and tests. Pull requests stay in the 300 to 800 line range. He uses Pi's slash tree instead of sub-agents. Dillon is on X at @dillon_mulroy, GitHub at @dmmulroy, and Twitch at @dillon. https://dillonis.online

Dex Horthy - What Actually Gets You 2-3x With AI Coding

Épisode 21

jeudi 13 août 2026 • Durée 01:39:12

You can't get 10x with AI coding. Not today. Dex Horthy (Human Layer) makes the case for 2-3x if you refuse to ship slop, and why a perfect spec still produces garbage if you give the model permission to skip quality. That permission is how you burn a codebase into ash. We get into context engineering, where AI coding actually fails, why PR review is the bottleneck, how to use specs without worshipping them, cheap models vs Opus, compaction and sub-agents, and what to tell a 20-year engineer who is not living on Twitter. Dex is the founder of Human Layer. https://humanlayer.dev

Faster Isn't Better — Mario Zechner on Everything AI Made Us Forget (creator of Pi)

Épisode 19

vendredi 12 juin 2026 • Durée 01:17:24

Mario Zechner has watched people generate 500,000 lines of code in a week with a swarm of agents. He'll tell you exactly how that ends.Mario is the creator of Pi, the minimal, self-modifying coding agent that took off after Claude Code stopped fitting his workflow. He now builds it alongside Armin Ronacher at Earendil. This one is a grumpy, honest conversation about where AI coding is actually heading, and the places the hype quietly falls apart.We get into:- Why "code is never free," and how a lot of today's productivity just delays the bill- The case that spec-driven development is hyper-waterfall, repeating a mistake the industry thought it solved 30 years ago- Why an army of parallel agents wrecks his brain, and the "absolute caveman" workflow he actually uses to ship- Running AI fully local on a normal MacBook, and why that future is closer than most people think- The clanker problem- What we lose when AI strips out the friction we used to learn fromThe tension we kept circling: agents make exploring solutions faster than ever, but the thinking was always the hard part, not the typing. 0:00 Intro2:20 Why Pi Fits Workflows8:53 What Success Looks Like for Pi10:58 Building Beyond the Coding Agent13:13 Local AI Is Getting Real20:13 How Mario Actually Works26:38 Discipline, Atrophy, and Juniors29:08 Spec-Driven Dev Is Just Hyper-Waterfall35:03 Code Isn't Actually Free37:56 Async Agents and Thinking Time44:42 Learning Without the Pain49:13 AI's Sloppy Software Wave52:11 GitHub Under Clanker Load53:31 Family, Work, and Balance57:05 The Pi Team and Leadership58:52 Refactoring Pi's Core1:03:32 Security, YOLO, and Trust1:06:27 Taming the PR Flood1:12:11 Token Prices and Budgets

Microfrontends: Cutting Through the Hype and Misconceptions (w/ Luca)

Épisode 17

vendredi 19 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:11:06

Micro-frontends promise to help teams scale development, but AWS Principal Architect Luca Mezzalira has seen some succeed and some just fall apart. In this conversation, he shares what he's learned from years of implementation work at companies like DAZN and through consulting with Fortune 500 organizations.Luca explains why micro-frontends are fundamentally different from components—something many teams get wrong from the start. He discusses the common pitfalls he encounters: teams treating them like distributed components, sharing state across boundaries, and copying architectures from companies with completely different constraints and resources.The discussion covers practical implementation details—from communication patterns and tooling strategies to when approaches like iframes actually make sense. Luca also touches on newer developments in server-side rendering and how they're changing the micro-frontend landscape.This isn't about micro-frontends being good or bad, but about understanding when and how to use them appropriately. Luca emphasizes the importance of context and organizational design in making these architectural decisions work.Our Fantastic Guest - Luca MezzaliraI’m a software architect with over 20 years of experience helping organizations—from startups to Fortune 500s—design scalable, resilient, and modern architectures. My focus: evolving frontend systems, driving cloud-native modernizations, and enabling autonomy at scale through architectural clarity.As Principal Serverless Specialist Solutions Architect at AWS, I advise global enterprises on designing and implementing efficient, event-driven systems.

Épisode 16

vendredi 12 septembre 2025 • Durée 52:05

Why CSS is Now the Fastest-Moving Space in Web Development (with Una Kravets)While everyone's talking about AI disrupting development, Una Kravets from Google Chrome reveals a surprising twist: CSS has quietly become the fastest-evolving part of web development. In this conversation, Una breaks down how features that required months of JavaScript engineering are now landing as native platform capabilities. Think customizable dropdowns, anchor positioning, and scroll-driven animations. She shares insights from working directly with Chromium engineers and explains why senior developer expertise is becoming more valuable than ever, even as AI lowers the barrier to building applications.Una walks through her process for identifying platform gaps and working with standards bodies like Open UI. She also tackles the unique challenge of scaling web platform knowledge in an AI-driven development landscape, sharing her mixed feelings about AI's current applications. From her success building Chrome extensions with Gemini to her frustration with chat-based customer service, Una argues for using AI where it makes sense while maintaining the human elements that make the web engaging. Whether you're skeptical about AI's role in development or curious about the cutting-edge of CSS, this conversation offers a grounded yet forward-thinking perspective on the future of web development.Our Fantastic GuestUna KravetsUna Kravets leads the Web UI Developer Relations Team at Google Chrome with a mission to make the web platform easier to build on and more powerful.

Writing a Web Browser in 2025 (with Andreas Kling)

Épisode 15

vendredi 29 août 2025 • Durée 01:07:23

What does it take to build a web browser when everyone says it's impossible? In this episode, we sit down with Andreas Kling, the engineer behind Ladybird—the only major browser project that doesn't take money from Google.Andreas breaks down a uncomfortable truth: Google funds every major browser through search deals. Chrome, Firefox, Safari—they're all dependent on Google's advertising revenue. Ladybird is building the first truly independent alternative since the early Firefox days.We dive deep into the technical challenges of implementing web standards from scratch, why their 700,000 lines of code can compete with Chrome's 100+ million, and how they're making browser code that actually mirrors the specifications. Andreas reveals why they switched from UTF-8 to UTF-16, why they didn't choose Rust, and how they handle the constant evolution of living web standards.From the "draw the owl" problem of CSS specifications to building a sustainable nonprofit model with sponsors like Shopify, Andreas shares the engineering and business decisions behind their ambitious timeline: alpha in 2026, beta in 2027, and v1.0 by 2028.Our Fantastic GuestAndreas KlingPresident of the Ladybird Browser Initiative.XLinks and ResourcesLadybird Browser WebsiteWeb Platform TestsFil-C (memory-safe C++ compiler)Thank you very much for listening!
