The AI Flight Crash: Why 2026’s Hottest Papers Can’t Take Off — and what actually ships

Langley spent $50,000 and sank — the Wright Brothers flew for <$1,000. Here’s a 4-week build plan I’ve seen actually ship.

AI Agents Are Poisoning Your Codebase From the Inside

Explore how AI-generated code can silently degrade software quality through weakened tests, rising code churn, and duplication—and how teams can prevent it with better governance.

Open Source’s Critical Inflection Point and the 14,000,605-to-1 Survival Strategy

Open source isn’t dying and growing up. Why trust collapsed, forks emerged, AI changed the game, and what it will take to build a survivable open source future.

2026 CRM AI: From Seats to Service (Why Undo Beats IQ)

In 2026, CRM AI won’t be won by smarter models—but by Undo. This essay explores why enterprise adoption shifts from IQ to liability, how “Service as a Software” replaces SaaS, and why seatbelt layers decide who actually ships AI in production.
