Agentic AI
A practical route through agents, tools, specs, and living engineering systems.
The Spec-Driven Development Methodology — The Discipline Behind the Tools, With Receipts
This is not a tool article. It's about the discipline itself: why specs work on AI agents, when the ceremony pays for itself and when it's pure tax, and what the actual research says — including the two studies whose results contradict each other.
deepdiveClaude Code — The AI Agent That Lives in Your Terminal
Claude Code from zero to pro — installation, permission modes, delegation & subagents, slash commands, hooks, MCP, permissions, and headless mode — explained step by step like someone's sitting in front of you
deepdiveAI in Chip Design — What Actually Works, What's Marketing, and Who Should Worry
On July 15 a panel of AI-EDA startups spent the session listing what their own tech still can't do. We strip the marketing: where AI already ships in chip design (DSO.ai, Cerebrus, AlphaChip, ChipNeMo, Solido), why correctness, accountability, and locked-up data cap it — and who really wins.
deepdiveAnthropic × Samsung — Why Every Frontier AI Lab Ends Up Building Its Own Silicon
Anthropic is reportedly in talks with Samsung to build its first custom AI chip on a 2nm process — right as it quietly files a confidential S-1 for an IPO. We break down why every frontier AI lab ends up designing its own silicon, how the margin stack works, and why Samsung over TSMC.
