Taming AI Chaos: A Structured Agent Workflow for Predictable Coding

I once spent an hour debugging AI-generated code that insisted on using a method that hadn’t existed in a library for three years. Like many developers, I’ve been on a rollercoaster with AI coding assistants. One moment they generate flawless code; the next, they’re confidently hallucinating. After many trials, I’ve landed on a structured workflow that brings predictability and power back to the developer. This isn’t about finding one “perfect prompt.” It’s about creating a universal, repeatable process that uses specialized AI agents to guide collaboration. The goal is to augment your skills and let you focus on architecture, not just have the AI write code for you.

How neuroscience can help you as a software engineer - motivation

Many of us, software engineers, have experienced those days when nothing really sparks joy in coding, debugging, preparing spikes or refining tasks for the next sprints. Obviously, we would like to have as few of such days as possible and go on with our work effectively. A solution to this definitely is not tormenting our brains with guilt and forced labour. There are other ways, and I would like to invite you to explore them with me and learn a little about our nervous systems in the process. We’ll find out where the motivation comes from on a biological and psychological level. We’ll also take a look at the changes you can introduce into your day to take advantage of certain mechanisms working on a neural level and boost your motivation and productivity.
