A developer argues that LLM-driven AI agents are flooding production infrastructure with unauthenticated, untracked API calls, overwhelming rate limits, stalling CI/CD pipelines, and generating security alerts. The piece…
Dylan and cofounder Jakub launched amika.dev, a service that provisions multiplayer cloud workstations, called "Rigs," where coding agents and humans share git repos, development environments, and agent harnesses. Amika …
A DEV community roundup highlighted two AI engineering posts from the past week: developer @earlgreyhot1701d applied Herbert Simon's "satisficing" concept to stop AI agents from iterating endlessly and causing scope cree…
Cognition gave its Devin coding agent a full macOS VM on bare-metal AWS hardware, a warmed-up Xcode, an iOS Simulator, and accessibility-tree vision so it can build, run, and verify iOS apps, then deliver a screen record…
