The strategic read

One article, written for founders and CTOs. Every piece opens with three punchlines so you can read it in twenty seconds and decide if the rest is worth your time.

  • AI Is the Engine. Here’s Who Holds the Wheel.

    • AI makes our engineers faster — at writing code, building tests, generating documentation.
    • Supply chain is an industry built on exceptions: carrier quirks, customs carve-outs, warehouse-specific failure modes — knowledge that lives in experienced engineers’ heads, not in training data
    • Every piece of AI-generated code gets reviewed by an engineer who can tell the difference between code that looks correct and code that will work in a live environment
  • When Your Developer Leaves, What Goes With Them?

    • When a key developer hands in their notice, the code stays, but years of knowledge about why it works the way it does often goes with them
    • Developer tenure in the industry averages two to three years; in-house teams have less continuity than they appear to
    • A well-run long-term development partnership holds knowledge at team level, not in individuals. When someone leaves, the work continues without a gap
  • The System That Runs the Business (And Nobody Wants to Touch)

    • Legacy systems rarely fail outright, they accumulate workarounds until making any change becomes too risky and too expensive to attempt
    • AI tools can read and document a legacy codebase in a fraction of the time, which makes a lower-risk approach possible
    • Every year you wait makes it harder: technical debt compounds, and the people who understand the old system gradually move on
