  1. WHERE OTHERS LOSE CONTROL – WE STAY IN THE LOOP.

    At Infinito.Nexus, we believe that AI should never replace human judgment. We are the captains. AI is our navigator. While others hand over responsibility to black-box systems, we stay in control. We design the architecture, review the code, verify every deployment, and make the decisions that shape the future of the systems we build. AI is one of the most powerful tools ever created. But it remains a tool. We are the engineers, architects, and craftsmen who use it to build sovereign digital infrastructure faster, more reliably, and at a scale that was impossible only a few years ago. […]

  2. The new 10x Engineer with AI

    The idea of the “10x engineer” has always been a bit controversial. Some people see it as a myth. Some people see it as a harmful label that creates hero culture. Some people have worked with engineers who clearly create much more impact than others, and believe the idea is real. I sit somewhere in the middle. I don’t think a 10x engineer means someone who writes 10x more code than everyone else. That version of the idea was never useful to me. Writing more code is not the same as […]

  3. 💡 Whole Company on a Raspberry Pi Cluster

    Once, I had a team that took down a monolith.
    Not with brute force, but with precision.

    In months, we erased 90% of the code—no migrations, no breakages.
    Stripped the bloat, cut dependencies, and ended up with something wild:

    🚀 A Raspberry Pi cluster running the entire system.
    Five tiny machines. Millions of requests.
    Features built in ~90 minutes, not months.
    No "senior" devs needed. No we needed. Pure engineering efficiency.

    PROD needed bigger iron for scale, but the lesson stuck:
    ✅ Less code → Less complexity → Less maintenance.
    ✅ Running 10+ years - never turned into legacy.
    ✅ PMs even tweak features via ugly but effective XML (DX > UX 😅).

    This is real engineering.

  4. I created a keyboard macro to paste “I agree, but we don't have time for this correction/improvement/clarification/enhancement now. We'll fix it later.”

    I can reply to Git pull request comments so much faster now!

  7. Sonos is one company I really hope can turn things around and survive the corporate self-harm, "efficiency" measures, and enshittification path that their investors, board, and executives have pushed them toward.

  8. IT is, when you're hiring a master chef 👨‍🍳, but then you are insisting that they only bake the crust 🍞. Companies hire IT experts but overload them with their business tasks and operational demands, leading to incomplete solutions, growing technical debt, costs and an endless cycle of maintenance, stifling innovation and development. 💡 Let's use experts as a service, not as a slave. You order, they build and work as they need. IT can't be structured.
