Typing! I'm doing it now. I'm recording words. But while the sands of time will one day erase them and no one will read this sentence in a few decades, the Hansard Record will endure for centuries. What is Hansard? It's the official record of parliamentary debates of course! Hansard reporters are a key part of how parliament works because they write down all the speeches, questions and debates of the chambers and their committees so that we have an official record.Read the federal Hansard record here: https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Hansard Support the channel on patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/AuspolExplainedFollow me on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/auspolexplained.bsky.social Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auspolexplained/ Like Auspol Explained on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Auspol-Explained-107892180702388Auspol Explained would like to acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people and their Elders as the owners and custodians of the Land that the episode was recorded and edited on.

How do you communicate clearly when you are tired, frustrated, or emotionally depleted? In this episode, we talk about why templates and saved scripts are not robotic shortcuts, but tools that help us protect our voice, our policies, and our peace. We share how repeated questions about cancelations, pricing, onboarding, hiring, birthdays, reviews, and training can drain a business owner when every response has to be written from scratch. We also explain why consistent communication is a brand issue, a team culture issue, and a sustainability issue. By creating templates ahead of time, we can reduce decision fatigue while still showing up with warmth, professionalism, and good judgment. Main topics: Templates reduce decision fatigue Consistent client communication matters Brand voice beyond owners Scripts support team training Systems protect emotional energy Main takeaway: "Copy, paste, change the name, and you're done, and you can actually go on to serve the next client, just like you want to be doing." A strong communication template is not about sounding robotic. It is about borrowing the clearest, calmest, most professional version of yourself when you are tired, overwhelmed, or emotionally depleted. When a client asks about a policy, your answer should not depend on whether it is 10 a.m. or 10 p.m. Templates help you protect your tone, enforce your boundaries, and communicate with consistency. They also give your team the language they need to represent your business well. Links: Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts!

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Six. And the first thing I want to say is that Sixes are not just anxious people. That framing does such a disservice to this type that I hear from Sixes regularly saying they feel completely misrepresented by it. We are going into what is actually happening underneath, and why this type is so much more layered than most resources make it look.In this episode:Why anxiety is the symptom and not the sourceThe clearest way to tell Six apart from Two, Nine, and OneThe difference between phobic and counterphobic Sixes, and why a Six can move between the twoThe defense mechanism that turns intuition into projection, and how to tell the differenceWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Six, anyone who loves a Six and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Six who is ready to be seen as more than just an anxious person.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

Most people find their Enneagram type by taking a quiz and hoping for the best. Quizzes run somewhere between 60 and 70% inaccurate. Starting with the wrong type costs you. Every bit of inner work you do, every pattern you examine, is pointed at someone who is not quite you.A self-discovery process that guides you inward. The Enneagram is a tool. The Self-Typing Toolkit is a kit full of tools to help you use it well.In this episode:Why quizzes get it wrong, and what to do insteadThe difference between mistyping from a quiz and mistyping through a process like this oneThe many ways to find your type, and why this one is the long way on purposeWhat is inside the toolkit and how each piece works togetherHow to actually use this so you land on your type with confidenceWhy the order of the episodes mattersWho this is for: Anyone who has bought the Self-Typing Toolkit, anyone considering it, and anyone who is tired of starting and stopping their Enneagram journey because the type they were assigned never quite fit.Get the Self-Typing Toolkit HERE!Connect on Instagram.Take the Unf*ck Your Type Enneagram shadow work course here.

This is a deep dive on Enneagram Type One. Not the surface level version you have heard a hundred times. We are going into the psychology, the wiring, what is actually happening underneath, and the parts of being a One that almost nobody talks about out loud.In this episode:How Type One is different from Six, Three, and Eight, and the clearest way to tell them apartWhere the anger lives, why it never gets called anger, and what it does to the body when it has nowhere to goThe defense mechanism running quietly underneath everythingWhat this type looks like at every level of awarenessThe thing every One needs to hear, and almost never doesWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a One, anyone who loves a One and wants to understand them more deeply, and any One who is ready to see themselves a little more clearly.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is a deep dive on Enneagram Type Three. We are going into the psychological structure underneath the performance, the shape-shifting that even Threes do not always recognize they are doing, and the question that lives underneath everything.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Three apart from One, Eight, and TwoThe defense mechanism that makes the performance so convincing, even to the Three running itThe difference between needing to be loved and needing to be seenWhat the crash into Nine actually looks like, and why it happensWhat having a Three in your corner is really likeWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Three, anyone who loves a Three and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Three who is ready to consider that they have always been enough, even without the performance.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Five. Not the stereotyped withdrawn, emotionally disconnected version that gets thrown around. We are going into the actual inner world of a Five, which happens to be one of the most extraordinary places on the entire Enneagram.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Five apart from Four, Nine, and OneWhy Fives are not emotionally disconnected, and why that misunderstanding causes so many to mistype as FourWhat avarice really means for a Five (it has almost nothing to do with money)Why the energy depletion is real, where it actually comes from, and how it shapes everythingWhat it looks like when a Five finally lets someone inWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Five, anyone who loves a Five and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Five who is ready to consider that the world needs what they know.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Four. Not the stereotyped moody, sensitive, dramatic version that gets handed to Fours over and over. We are going into the wound, the gift, the depth, and the specific way Fours experience the world that almost no one else can access.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Four apart from Nine, One, and TwoWhere the belief that something is missing actually comes from, and how it became the lensWhat envy really means for a Four (it is not what most people think)The defense mechanism that explains why criticism lands deep and praise slides offWhy Fours are some of the most quietly extraordinary people you will ever knowWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Four, anyone who loves a Four and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Four who is ready to hear that they were never missing anything.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Nines. Not the chill, easygoing, peaceful version that most resources stop at. We are going into the slow, quiet form of disappearing , the stubbornness that catches everyone off guard, and the version of a Nine that comes out when they finally stop making themselves small.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Nine apart from Two, Four, and FiveWhy narcotization is not laziness, and how to spot it in yourselfThe pattern of merging, and why Nines can lose track of what they actually wantWhy Nines are one of the most stubborn types on the entire Enneagram (yes, really)What a Nine who has done the work actually looks like, and why they are a forceWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Nine, anyone who loves a Nine and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Nine who is ready to take up the space they were always allowed to take.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Eights. I open by talking about what it looks like to be an Eight and how that is not the same for everyone. The same energy that gets a man called a leader gets a woman called a bitch. Add a layer if you are a woman of color. We are going there. We are also going into the armor, the heart underneath it, and the misunderstanding that follows this type around.In this episode:How the world receives Eight energy differently depending on gender and raceThe clearest way to tell Eight apart from Three, One, and the counterphobic SixWhere the armor actually comes from, and why it never fully comes off for most EightsWhat lust and excess really mean for an EightWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be an Eight, anyone who loves an Eight and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Eight who has ever been told they are too much.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Sevens. Not the fun, free-spirited, party-loving version. We are going into the strategy underneath the lightness, what Sevens are actually running from, and the depth that most people never see because the system is so good at keeping it hidden.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Seven apart from Three, Two, and EightWhere the snap back to lightness actually comes from, and why it is not what it looks likeWhat gluttony really means for a Seven (it is rarely about food)The defense mechanism that lets Sevens reframe almost anything in secondsWhy the lightness Sevens bring into a room is not a small thing, and why there is even more of it waiting on the other side of what they have been outrunningWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Seven, anyone who loves a Seven and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Seven who is ready to know that the rest of them is worth meeting.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

This is the deep dive on Enneagram Type Twos. Not the warm and giving version you already know about yourself. We are going into the part underneath that. The part that is a little harder to look at.In this episode:The clearest way to tell Two apart from Nine and Three, the two types Twos most often get confused withWhere the radar to read other people's needs actually comes fromWhat is really happening in the moment a Two finally snapsWhy the giving has strings even when you swear it doesn'tWho this is for: Anyone who suspects they might be a Two, anyone who loves a Two and wants to understand them more deeply, and any Two who is ready to start turning a fraction of that love inward.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

The Enneagram Harmonic Triads place you into one of three groups based on how you respond to conflict, disappointment, and things not going your way. And those things are happening multiple times a day, which means whatever strategy you reach for is running constantly, probably without you ever noticing it. When you learn which group you are in, it tends to be one of those aha moments where you finally name something you have been doing your whole life.In this episode:The three groups (Positive Outlook, Competency, Reactive) and which types belong to eachHow each type inside each group handles disappointment differentlyWhat happens when types from different groups try to work through a hard moment togetherHow to use your harmonic group as a typing tool when you are stuck between two typesThe gift of each group, and the shadow side that costs you when you cannot see itWho this is for: Anyone trying to figure out their type, anyone who has ever wondered why a hard conversation with someone you love keeps going sideways, and anyone ready to see their automatic strategy for what it actually is.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

Core motivations are the deepest layer of the Enneagram. The fear underneath what you do. The desire driving every decision you make. The thing that got wired in so early that you mistake it for personality. Two people can do the exact same thing for completely different reasons. That is why behavior alone will never tell you your type. The why will.In this episode:A childhood scene for each type and the decision that came from itWhat each type longed to hear, and what got wired in insteadThe deepest fear and the deepest desire for all nine typesWhat this pattern is actually costing you that you cannot fully seeHow to use core motivations to land on your type when nothing else has workedWho this is for: Anyone trying to find their type, anyone who has tried every other framework and still has not landed somewhere that feels true, and anyone ready to look at the why underneath what they do.If you are still in the process of figuring out your type, the Self-Typing Toolkit is built for you.

Santa Clarita Valley real estate update for Saturday, May 17, 2026.In this episode:Inventory in SCV has climbed by roughly 200 active listings over the last two months. Absorption rate has barely moved since the end of 2025. Mortgage rates are creeping up because the 10-year bond is shaky on the back of global instability, oil prices, and a wait-and-see Fed posture.For BUYERS in a hot pocket: the no-contingency game is mostly dead in SCV right now. A few years ago we saw buyers waive everything to win. Today, smart buyers are keeping their investigation period. Hear why removing all contingencies is a sticky place to be — and what to ask your agent if they're pushing you that way.For SELLERS: the #1 mistake right now is the wrong valuation strategy. Typing your address into Zillow, Redfin, or Realtor.com triggers automated AI surveillance — your property becomes a target for marketing systems before you've even decided to list. Hear the smarter way to get a real valuation from a local agent who represents SELLERS ONLY.

Most people think journaling is about getting thoughts out. It's not.How you write changes what actually forms.Typing is fast. Efficient. Surface-level.

No talking, just continuous ambient sound. And follow us in your podcast platform for more episodes like this.___So this week's episode cover image pays homage to Saul Bass' opening sequence for Alfred Hitchcock's film North by Northwest.Do I really need to shout out Saul Bass as the inspiration for this week's episode cover? Check out the clumsy Photoshop composition I made of a master's work featured in another master's work.And next I will impart to you a moral principle from childhood I subscribe to… “Do unto others.” Which was said by—Heavens, I just had an intrusive memory that is quasi related to the opening sequences of movies. Bluh. So when I was graduating from college I had “like totally mastered” Avid Media Composer. I was using the 90s-era titling tool in AMC to make rudimentary cartoons and was convinced I was the ****.So when I started applying to jobs, I was applying to the big guys, and to stand out I was trying to be super creative. So when I sent a 30-minute-long collection of my Avid Media Composer title-tool cartoons on VHS to Imaginary Forces—THE Imaginary Forces, the folks that pre-horrified the movie Se7en. They pre-excitemented the Raiden Metal Gear. And later did movie logo opens for Marvel and DC Comics… And I just packaged up a resume and demo tape and sent it addressed to one of the top people. And to extra stand out: I printed personalized notes about my short history on fortune-cookie-sized paper and stuffed them into an envelope to bursting.

Tray Streeter grew up in Syracuse, Utah. Like many children, he spent much of his childhood drawing, though he was especially interested in still lifes. That fascination with technique deepened in his teenage years after he received a set of oil paints for Christmas, leading him to study the works of John Singer Sargent and Caravaggio. Portraiture became his passion, one that continues to influence his work today. It was not until adulthood, when he began working digitally, that he turned his attention to sci-fi and fantasy art. The genre offered him the freedom to create artworks that exist beyond reality. Influenced by artists like Frank Frazetta and Alex Ross, he aims to combine both the drama and technique of classical painting with the sleek, contemporary possibilities of digital art. Currently, Tray is attending Weber State University, pursuing a BFA in Art with a 2D emphasis. After graduation, he hopes to continue his studies at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Ultimately, he aspires to illustrate for Dungeons & Dragons, work on cover illustration for comics, and develop his own original concepts. Joseph Sidari lives in the Boston suburbs with his wife and a delightfully spoiled labradoodle named Chloe, who takes him for walks twice a day. As a practicing physician, he works hard caring for his patients while trying to kill off his protagonists. He is a current member of the Grub Street Writers Group of Boston and a former member of the Spacecraft Writers' Group. He's been a lifelong fan of reading speculative fiction, but only started writing it after flipping his bicycle during triathlon training. Typing at his computer felt like a less risky hobby, so that summer, with his wrist on the mend, he wrote a novel. Then another. On his third attempt, he found an agent who suggested that writing short stories could help build his reputation while the book was being shopped around. The manuscript never sold, but he realized short stories were fun, too. Since then, he has earned multiple honorable mentions in the Writers of the Future contest and two Silvers, while publishing several short stories—though not enough to “pro out."

619 Million Podcast Listeners vs. 619 Million Pinterest Users: The Content Overlap Nobody Sees. In this episode, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS will teach you How to Use Pinterest and Podcasting Together to Build Revenue in 2026. Understand what Podcast Listeners Are Doing, Where Pinterest Users Are Planning: Why That Changes Everything. AI + Pinterest + Podcasting = The Revenue Framework for Business Owners.We had a section in this episode discussing From Sourdough to Strategy: How Pinterest Search Reveals Your Next Customer and many more monetization insights for podcast listeners, hosts, and Pinterest business owners.Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS and co-host Jon Muranko break down a striking discovery: there are 619.2 million global podcast listeners and 619 million Pinterest monthly active users, nearly identical audiences with completely different behaviors. Podcast listeners consume while doing (commuting, exercising, getting ready). Pinterest users consume while planning (buying, building, deciding). This episode explores how business owners can bridge both platforms using AI tools like Claude to reverse-engineer revenue outcomes, build Pinterest boards that mirror search intent, and time podcast publishing for maximum 24-hour download cycles.Book SEO Services?

The audiences are nearly identical in size but differ in behavior: listeners are doing, pinners are planning.Top 3 places people listen to podcasts: getting ready (1st), commuting (2nd), and exercising (3rd). Knowing this shapes when and how you publish.Podcast publishing time affects your 24-hour download window. Post early in the cycle to maximize downloads before the daily clock resets.Pinterest search reveals buyer intent before the purchase. Typing "sourdough" surfaces "discard recipes" as the top suggestion, telling you exactly what URL to build on your website.Use AI as an accelerator, not a replacement. Jon's framework: define your outcome, reverse-engineer it with Claude or Gemini, then validate with a human strategist.Launch Pinterest ad campaigns on Tuesdays or Wednesdays to maximize a 14-day campaign window with the strongest start.Memorable Quotes"619.2 million podcast listeners versus 619 million Pinterest visitors. This is globally." — Favour Obasi-ike [00:05]"You can't plant a mango tree and expect pomegranates. It's what you give that you get." — Favour Obasi-ike [17:44]"AI is not gonna give you the magic key. It will help you accelerate. But if you and I are accelerating the wrong direction, is that gonna help us?" — Jon Muranko [08:25]"Write down your ideas on a physical piece of paper. Takeaways at the top, goals in the middle, actions at the bottom. Then process it through Claude." — Jon Muranko [37:19]"If you're not the one doing it, at least know what you're paying for. That in itself is enough gold to make a better decision." — Favour Obasi-ike [33:39]FAQsQ: Why compare podcast listeners to Pinterest users? A: Both audiences total 619 million globally. Podcast listeners are active (commuting, exercising), while Pinterest users are planning purchases. Bridging both platforms lets you reach the same audience at two different decision stages.Q: How does podcast publishing time affect downloads? A: Podcasts operate on a 24-hour download cycle. Publishing early in that window gives your episode the full day to accumulate downloads, rather than posting late and getting only one hour of traction.Q: How can AI help with Pinterest strategy? A: Use Claude or Gemini to reverse-engineer your revenue goal into a Pinterest content plan, but always validate outputs with human expertise and fact-checking.Q: When should I launch Pinterest ad campaigns? A: Tuesdays and Wednesdays are optimal launch days, giving your 14-day campaign a strong start within the weekly cycle.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Talk Python To Me - Python conversations for passionate developers
You're adding type hints to your Python code, your editor is happy, autocomplete is working great. But then you switch tools and suddenly there are red squiggles everywhere. Who decides what a float annotation actually means? Or whether passing None where an int is expected should be an error? It turns out there's a five-person council dedicated to exactly these questions -- and two brand-new Rust-based type checkers are raising the bar. On this episode, I sit down with three members of the Python Typing Council -- Jelle Zijlstra, Rebecca Chen, and Carl Meyer -- to learn how the type system is governed, where the spec and the type checkers agree and disagree, and get the council's official advice on how much typing is just enough.

Identifying the Enneagram Type we lead with is often a journey of self-discovery. While online assessments can point us in the right direction, they are not precise instruments. A more reliable process for discovering and clarifying your Enneagram Type is the Enneagram Type Discovery Interview—often called a Typing Interview. Facilitated by a trained Enneagram teacher or practitioner, the Typing Interview creates space to explore your core motivations, fears, and internal biases at a deeper level than online tests. In this episode, I sit down with my good friend, Tom Wells, and guide him through the Typing Interview process. You'll get an inside look at what a Typing Interview is like and why it's so important to move beyond surface behaviors to uncover the motivations that drive our Enneagram Type. As you listen, you may gain fresh insight into the Enneagram Type you lead with—and perhaps decide that a Typing Interview would be a valuable next step in your own Enneagram journey. My sincere thanks to Tom for generously allowing us to witness his process. Tom and his wife are the owners of Wells Virtual Bookkeeping, LLC, a bookkeeping service supporting small businesses.

On Wednesday, January 28, 2026, Ian Hamilton announced on Bluesky that "I've been fired from UploadVR." He was the editor in chief at UploadVR, and he wrote a Substack post titled "Ian is Typing" on January 30th detailing how is co-workers were pushing to do a test of a "clearly disclosed AI author for UploadVR," and that he had three specific concerns that it be brief, for the ability for readers to turn off and hide all AI-authored posts, and for human freelancers to have the right of first refusal. Hamilton claims to have tried to raise these concerns in the context of Slack, but that the experiment was going to proceed regardless. He writes, "Unable to shift the direction of my colleagues and out of options to affect what was coming, I stepped out of Slack and sent a final email to them on Wednesday morning with a number of my contacts in the industry copied, raising some of these concerns. Not long after, I was called by my boss and fired." I spoke with Hamilton last Friday after his Substack post in order to get more context that led to his departure. Hamilton claims that UploadVR Editor & Developer David Heaney and UploadVR's Operations Manager Kyle Riesenbeck were behind the push to test this clearly disclosed AI author on UploadVR, and that ultimately the proposed test was a business decision made by Riesenbeck. It was a decision that Hamilton ultimately disagreed with, and he cites it as the primary factor that led to behavior that ultimately led to his firing. (UPDATE Feb 5, 2026: It is worth noting here that UploadVR has yet to run this AI bot author test, but that it was the proposed test that was the catalyst for Hamilton's behavior). The specific reasons and circumstances around Hamilton's firing are publicly disputed by Heaney, who reacted on Twitter after Hamilton's Substack post went live by saying, "It is indeed only one side of the story. And an incomplete telling of it, with key omissions and wording choices that serve to paint a misleading picture." In another post Heaney says, "I can't get into it more at this point for obvious reasons, but don't believe everything you read, especially a single side of a complex story." I asked Hamilton for his reaction to Heaney's claims that he's being misleading during our interview, and he did provide more context in our conversation that lead up to his firing. Ultimately, it does sounds like the proposed AI bot author test was the primary catalyst for Hamilton, and that this disagreement may have led to other behaviors and reactions that could also be reasonably cited for why he was fired. UploadVR may have a differing opinions as to what happened, but no one from UploadVR has made public comments beyond what Heaney has said on Twitter. I have extended invitations to both Riesenbeck or Heaney to come onto the podcast for a broader discussion about AI, but nothing has been confirmed by the time of publication. My Personal Take on AI: Technically, Philosophically, Legally, and Culturally Public discourse around AI has split into a binary of Pro-AI vs Anti-AI, and while my personal views can not be easily collapsed into one side of the other, I'd usually take the Anti-AI side of a debate if given the opportunity. I do think some form of AI is here to stay, and will be around for a long time, but that right now there is a lot of hype and deluded thinking on the topic. I see AI as a technology that consolidates wealth and power, and so a primary question worth asking is “Whose power and wealth is being consolidated?” Karen Hao's The Empire of AI elaborates on how the past patterns of colonialism are replaying out within the context of data and the field of AI, as well as how scaling with more compute power has been the primary mode of innovation in AI, and that Gary Marcus has been pushing against the "Scale is All You Need" theory for many years now. Technically speaking, I'm more of a skeptic in the short-term around LLMs along the lines of Stocha...

Software engineering is changing fast, but not in the way most hot takes claim. Robert Brennan, Co founder and CEO at OpenHands, breaks down what happens when you outsource the typing to the LLM and let software agents handle the repetitive grind, without giving up the judgment that keeps a codebase healthy. This is a practical conversation about agentic development, the real productivity gains teams are seeing, and which skills will matter most as the SDLC keeps evolving. Key TakeawaysAI in the IDE is now table stakes for most engineers, the bigger jump is learning when to delegate work to an agentThe best early wins are the unglamorous tasks, fixing tests, resolving merge conflicts, dependency updates, and other maintenance work that burns time and attentionBigger output creates new bottlenecks, QA and code review can become the limiting factor if your workflow does not adaptSenior engineering judgment becomes more valuable, good architecture and clean abstractions make it easier to delegate safely and avoid turning the codebase into a messThe most durable human edge is empathy, for users, for teammates, and for your future self maintaining the systemTimestamped Highlights00:40 What OpenHands actually is, a development agent that writes code, runs it, debugs, and iterates toward completion02:38 The adoption curve, why most teams start with IDE help, and what “agent engineers” do differently to get outsized gains06:00 If an engineer becomes 10x faster, where does the time go, more creative problem solving, less toil15:01 A real example of the SDLC shifting, a designer shipping working prototypes and even small UI changes directly16:51 The messy middle, why many teams see only moderate gains until they redraw the lines between signal and noise20:42 Skills that last, empathy, critical thinking, and designing systems other people can understand22:35 Why this is still early, even if models stopped improving today, most orgs have not learned how to use them well yetA line worth sharing“The durable competitive advantage that humans have over AI is empathy.”Pro Tips for Tech TeamsStart by delegating low creativity tasks, CI failures, dependency bumps, and coverage improvements are great training wheelsDefine “safe zones” for non engineers contributing, like UI tweaks, while keeping application logic behind clearer guardrailsInvest in abstractions and conventions, you want a codebase an agent can work with, and a human can trustTrack where throughput stalls, if PR review and QA are the bottleneck, productivity gains will not show up where you expectCall to ActionIf you got value from this one, follow the show and share it with an engineer or product leader who is sorting out what “agentic development” actually means in practice.
