Legacy systems are black boxes to AI coding tools. Here's how to make decades-old code readable to both humans and LLMs without a full rewrite.
I asked Copilot to fix a bug. It broke 3 features instead. The problem isn't AI—it's that your tools don't know what your code actually does.
CTOs ask the hard questions about low-code platforms. Here's what nobody tells you about the $65B industry—from vendor lock-in to the mess it leaves behind.
Shift-left is dead. Modern AI doesn't just catch bugs earlier—it understands your entire codebase at every stage. Here's what shift-everywhere actually means.
