The Pragmatic Engineer interview has the Honeycomb CTO saying skepticism was rational through 2025 and isn't defensible in 2026, crediting Opus 4.5 and more decisively Claude Code turning coding harnesses from shell scripts into real development infrastructure. She calls code review "overrated" and "the least valuable part of what humans add," and argues validation rigor must rise as code provenance shifts away from human authorship. One practice I'm stealing: nobody at Honeycomb uses AI on Wednesdays, as a deliberate guard against tool fatigue.
