This week on Overcommitted we met with Sreya Sarathy to chat about getting started in tech when AI exists and imposter syndrome (turns out, we all have it). Check it out at overcommitted.dev/starting-a-s...

New episode of Overcommitted is out - it's our first "Closed That Tab" segment. We share about three reads: agent identity & transaction tokens, the OpenAI sandbox escape, and loop engineering that ships ~20 PRs/day autonomously. Check it out!

Bethany and Erika chatted with Ben Balter on his new book, Open & Async (which is out now and VERY good!). Check out our conversation out now wherever you get your podcasts!

New Overcommitted episode is live 🎧 Caidan Williams built Terminal Graph: a spatial dev environment for macOS. Terminals, browsers, editors + AI agents on one infinite canvas, with dataflow piping between them. Self-taught, no degree, ~500 job apps before job #1. His edge? Persistence. 👇

Melanie Nabar sat down with Bethany and Erika to discuss what VCs really look for in an engineering culture. Many of her tips are applicable even if you aren't seeking funding. Here she describes how important data and measurement is while building an engineering culture. Full ep out now 🎧

How do you handle errors in your software when safety is critical? This week on Overcommitted, we chatted with @eriklars.bsky.social who works on live events, where one wrong move could be very problematic, and he had a great answer 👀 overcommitted.dev/safety-criti...

newest episode just dropped! @eriklars.bsky.social builds software for stage automation at TAIT and no, it's not the lighting > performer flying > pyrotechnics > stages that move under taylor swift full episode here: overcommitted.dev/safety-criti...

"Coding used to be like building a building - all planning and structure. Now it feels more like shaping pottery: rough it out, then refine it again and again until you're happy." Brittany on how AI changed the way she builds. New Overcommitted out now!

Software went from deterministic to probabilistic. The computer used to do exactly what you told it. Cameron Etezadi (CTO, LaunchDarkly) on why that changes everything about how we ship.

Coding gets cheaper. The feedback loop gets more important. Cameron Etezadi (CTO, LaunchDarkly) on why release-observe-iterate is the thing that actually scales - even as AI rewrites how we build. Ep 65 is out today. 🎙️

Speed without control is a liability. New episode: Cameron Etezadi (CTO, LaunchDarkly) on vibe coding vs. production-ready software, the release-observe-iterate loop, and how AI is changing what it means to be an engineer. overcommitted.dev

The best teams still run on social fabric. The trick is building it on purpose now. Dennis Pilarinos (founder & CEO of @unblocked) on remote work, AI, and the conscious effort it takes to stay connected. 🎙️ New Overcommitted out now!

@sterlingchin.bsky.social built an anonymous confessional for production disasters and called it ai crimes in production: ai-crimes-in-production.com first submission (before he even announced it): claude code deleted someone's entire staging folder 💀 overcommitted.dev/agentic-ai-d...

This week's episode: training LLMs with code quality tools baked in = 67% fewer vulnerabilities, 41% fewer bugs 🤯 Joe Tyler from Sonar is literally teaching AI models what "good code" means during training, not after. The future is wild.

New Overcommitted episode with Joe Tyler from Sonar! 🎙️ Deep dive into LLM code quality research - why Claude codes like a senior architect while GPT focuses on efficiency, the verification gap (96% distrust but only 48% verify!), and career advice for engineers interested in AI research.

For all the folks that ever thought frontend development was "easy" This week on Overcommitted we chatted with @nerdy.dev all about job searching in 2026, career growth, and how and how the heck people figure out CSS in the age of AI. Check it out wherever you listen to podcasts!

Your content is in someone else's database, by design 📱 From this week's episode: AT Protocol lets you own your data. And Brittany's building OpenSocial to add what AT Proto doesn't have yet - groups. Platforms need to compete on quality, not lock-in.

"I'm highly motivated by being publicly shamed" might be the most relatable developer quote of 2026 😅 From today's episode - sometimes conference talk deadlines are the best project managers. The accountability of having to demo something publicly is *chef's kiss*

New Overcommitted episode! 🎧 Brittany built Collective Social and OpenSocial on AT Protocol, tackling group management when the protocol doesn't have a native concept of groups yet. Conference talk deadlines as motivation to ship? Relatable 😅

"You cannot have all the answers as a single person." @whitep4nth3r.com on why we still need each other, even (especially) in the age of AI. Check out this week's episode of Overcommitted 🎧 overcommitted.dev/there-are-no...

Salma Alam-Naylor (@whitep4nth3r.com) on how to make the Internet not suck: Make your own experience better first. Unfollow, mute, block, profusely. Leave infinite scroll. Try RSS Your brain will recover. You can think again. Episode released this week wherever you listen to podcasts!

@johncrickett.bsky.social built Coding Challenges (90k+ subs) by posting honestly on LinkedIn with 3,200 followers. No funnel, no growth hacks. The post that broke through was him publicly walking the walk on a $100 MVP. 🎙 New Overcommitted out now!

This week @dorkrawk.bsky.social and @brittanyellich.com got together to chat about what it means to be senior in tech... And it was a banger! It's all about leverage 💪 Check out the new episode of Overcommitted wherever you get your podcasts!

"if you're just talking to chatbots to get answers, you're looking at question answering in too utilitarian of a way" @dorkrawk.bsky.social on why ai tools can't replace actually talking to your coworkers. episode just released this week!

check out this week's episode of overcommitted with Sabrina Goldfarb for some deeply relatable would you rather content "1,000 unread slack notifications or a codebase with zero documentation?" 👀

New episode dropped today! Bri goldfarb on why the slow, sideways-looking steps are the ones that actually get you there. From video editor to bootcamp to GitHub to front end masters, she's got the receipts! "you don't have to have a CS degree. you don't have to be a man."

Does it make sense to build versus buy now with AI? This week on the Overcommitted podcast, Satish Saley chats about the build versus buy dynamic, building a scalable customized search system, and how to make pragmatic decisions as an engineer. overcommitted.dev/scaling-sear...

Hey, we made a list! This is super cool. If you're a software engineer or know one, you should let them know about Overcommitted!

if you want to watch what github next is actually building as it happens, idan gazit says the github next site is the place to be githubnext.com this week's ep of overcommitted has the full conversation

"do I even need the youtube SDK if AI can just write the integration from the docs?" idan gazit (github next) asking questions about the shape of open source in the age of code generation new ep out today! 🎙️
