Looks like after the AI automation rush last year, the leaderboard has been removed. Makes sense, a little sad that it was needed though.

I've released a templatized local development setup using devcontainers that I've crafted over the last year, that I use on all projects now. This post explains the why and links to the project.

It's potentially the opposite. If you instrument a codebase with documentation and configuration for AI agents to work well in it, then in a year, that agent will be able to do that same work just as well (or better with model progress) at adding new features.
This assumes your adding documentation, tests, instructions, and other scaffolding along the way, of course.

Is it safe to say that MCP has "won" vs. A2A? Or is this a misreading of the situation?
They're not directly solving the same problem. MCP is for exposing tools, such as reading files. a2a is for agents to talk to other agents to collaborate.
MCP servers can expose tools that are agents, but don't have to, and usually don't.
That being said, I can't say I've come across an actual implementation of a2a outside of press releases...
d_watt commented on Facebook is asking to use Meta AI on photos you haven’t yet shared theverge.com/meta/694685/... · Posted by u/pier25
From the very beginning Facebook has been an AI wearing your friends as a skinsuit. People are only just starting to notice now.
Perhaps naive to say, but I think there was the briefest moment where your status updates started with "is", feeds were chronological, and photos and links weren't pushed over text, that it was not an adversarial actor to one's wellbeing.
d_watt commented on Essentials for getting the most from Coding Agents dylanwatt.com/posts/2025-... · Posted by u/d_watt
After converting many of my projects, and helping a couple startups tool their codebases and teams for using AI agents better, these 5 things are what I now do on every codebase I work on.

I like Thomas, but I find his arguments include the same fundamental mistake I see made elsewhere. He acknowledged that the tools need an expert to use properly, and as he illustrated, he refined his expertise over many years. He is of the first and last generation of experienced programmers who learned without LLM assistance. How is someone just coming out of school going to get the encouragement and space to independently develop the experience they need to break out of the "vibe coding" phase? I can almost anticipate an interjection along the lines of "well we used to build everything with our hands and now we have tools etc, it's just different" but this is an order of magnitude different. This is asking a robot to design and assemble a shed for you, and you never even see the saw, nails, and hammer being used, let alone understand enough about how the different materials interact to get much more than a "vibe" for how much weight the roof might support.
What do you think the "mistake" is here?
It seems like you're pointing out a consequence, not a counter argument.
