Stop Fancy Prompts Start Breaking Down Problems
Breaking complex coding problems into smaller chunks gets better AI results than fancy prompts. After 30+ years coding, I’ve learned the real skill is decomposition, not prompt engineering.
5 AI Coding Tools That Actually Understand Development
Most AI coding assistants are just fancy autocomplete. After testing them all, I found one that actually understands software development – not just syntax, but architecture, workflows, and the full dev lifecycle.
