Evgeny Ostroushko / Getty Images Will artificial intelligence (AI) help smash through the technical debt that has been growing in recent years? Or will emerging technology add a new layer of issues? Or, looking at it another way, could the overhang of technical debt slow down efforts to adopt AI? The good news is that a recently issued report suggests AI may be an answer to finding and reducing systems that slow things down. Also: Meet the most important AI tool that no one is talking about -

Technical debt has haunted development teams for decades, yet remains surprisingly difficult to explain. Everyone has their definition of Technical Debt. You will probably get three different answers if you ask three people what it is. Google recently faced this challenge at scale – a substantial percentage of its engineers reported being blocked by “unnecessary complexity and technical debt” in internal surveys. In a paper titled “Defining, Measuring, and Managing Technical Debt,” Google Engin

The Mysterious Network Error I was working on a technical post about DNS resolution when I encountered something unexpected. Every time I typed the path to the hosts file ( /etc/h*sts - intentionally obfuscated to avoid triggering the very issue I'm discussing), my Substack editor would display a "Network Error" and fail to autosave my draft. At first, I assumed Substack was experiencing an outage. However, their status page showed all systems operational. Something else was happening. The In

With some regularity, kind-hearted Technical people tell me that I Can Be Technical, Too. This usually happens when I’m asking us to define what we’re calling technical in a software environment. I understand why it happens. I am a psychologist of software environments and that is something of an anomaly. Also at the end of the day I have mischief in my heart and I love to ask Bad Questions. Kind Technical people are attuned to exclusion because they’ve been beaten around enough by it and they’r

Some engineers think it’s a virtue to remain non-committal in technical discussions. Should our team build a new feature in an event-driven or synchronous way? Well, it depends: there are many strong technical reasons on each side, so it’s better to keep an open mind and not come down on either side. This strategy is fine when you’re a junior engineer, but at some point you’ll be the person in the room with the most context (or technical skill, or institutional power). At that point, you need to
