GitHub Actions runs your tests when you push. By the 2006 definition of continuous integration, that's all it takes, so technically, yes, it's CI. And yet nobody who has run a real pipeline on it believes that's what they have. Here's the c…
The dirty secret of running a company on AI is that the AI stopped being the bottleneck. I am. On a busy day I have somewhere between five and twenty agents working for me at once, and barely any of it is code. Agents drafting marketing cop…
AI didn't make me faster. It made me the bottleneck. Running five to twenty agents across every function of my company, the slowest part of the whole thing is the one part I can't optimize away: me. The dirty secret of running a company on
For fifteen years, the smart move was to rent your primitives from GitHub. A decade of neglect and a wave of AI just flipped that math. You don't displace GitHub. You stop depending on it. For fifteen years, the smart move in developer tool…
For fifteen years, the smart move in developer tooling was to build on top of GitHub. That's over. Not because GitHub is dying. It isn't, and I won't pretend otherwise. GitHub's real moat was never its features or even its engineering. It's…

I haven't read a full pull request diff line by line in weeks. Other agents do that now. I run a deep, multi-agent review on every PR I open, across every repo I touch. By the time I look, the code has already been attacked from a dozen ang…
AI agents review my pull requests now, not me. But there is one thing I will never be able to hand them: everything my company knows that was never written down. I haven’t read a full pull request diff line by line in weeks. Other agents do…
Everyone agrees Europe finally has the cloud it needs to quit the Americans. OVH, Scaleway, a wave of sovereign providers selling data residency and independence. The pitch is simple: leave AWS, go local, sleep better. At Mergify, we use Sc…
A 95-year-old French furniture maker out-supports a French cloud company. The gap in European tech was never the technology. It's the service mindset. Everyone agrees Europe finally has the cloud it needs to quit the Americans. OVH, Scalewa…
