Why Software Engineering Is Indispensable in the Age of Coding Agents
Can AI make Software Engineering (SE) -- the discipline -- obsolete? And can it make software engineers -- the professionals -- redundant? This paper argues that the rise of capable AI coding...


Note on 24th September 2026
The more time I spend working with coding agents, the more convinced I am that they make software engineering even harder. We can do amazing things with them, but unlocking …
Running an AI-native engineering org | Claude
How the Claude Code engineering team’s processes and structure changed once agentic coding became the default way of working.

The Death of Software Development
The job of software developer is dead. You might still be coding, but the profession as you knew it is gone.
