200 PR a Day: One-Person Software Factories That Work

How we run funded startups with one-person tech teams. Parallel cloud sessions, a framework that routes work across third-party models, and automations that find their own bugs. Here is how we ship at that volume with success.

How AI Coding Actually Works now

Cursor's own usage data shows a 13x gap between median and power users, 90% of tokens going into reading rather than writing, and a jump from 10% to 40% of developers merging AI commits unreviewed. The interesting part is not the productivity claim, it is what the token mix reveals about where the real work happens.

Kimi K3: China's Open-Source Giant Rattles the Frontier Labs

Moonshot's Kimi K3 is the biggest open-weights model yet with 2.8 trillion parameters, a million-token context, and benchmarks that spooked the frontier labs. Here's what's real, what's hype, and why the politics matter more than the model.

Remote vs Office

Location was never the variable that mattered - clarity was, and remote just removed the padding that used to hide its absence.

Inside Bun's 11-Day rewrite from Zig to Rust

Bun spent the equivalent of $165,000 running 64 parallel Claude agents to port its entire codebase from Zig to Rust in 11 days. It fixed 128 bugs and has quietly powered Claude Code since June. Here is how it happened, and why Zig's creator is unconvinced.

Gemma 4: Google's Truly Open Model That Runs on a Phone

Google released Gemma 4 under a genuinely open Apache 2.0 license, and the surprise is how tiny it is: the big model runs on a consumer GPU, the edge model on a phone. Here is how Google pulled off the shrinkage.
