Richard Seroter's reading list #897 rounds up notable engineering writing:
- Measuring AI productivity: track outcome changes and waiting time, not just per-task time saved.
- Tokenomics: matching token spend to outcomes.
- Steering AI coding agents through language/architecture trade-offs with explicit requirements.
- TDD's oddities in the LLM era; Day-2000 maintainability over shipping speed.
- A Git forge for agent-human collaboration; Google TPUs coming to Oracle Cloud.
