I am not writing this to warn you away from AI-assisted development. I am writing this because the loudest voices in the AI enthusiasm camp are also the most allergic to discussing what can go wrong. And that worries me more than

Decisions developed gradually. Architecture changed over time. Judgment was distributed throughout implementation. When the cost of code drops, that balance flips. The difficult part is no longer creating softwa
Most trading fee calculators show you two numbers: the dollar amount and the percentage of notional. Both are correct. Neither is useful. Here's the problem. Say you're trading Bitcoin perpetuals on Bybit. Taker fee is 0.055% each side. You buy $10,000 notional. Entry fee: $5.50 Exit fee: $5.50 Round trip: $11.00 Does that matter? Impossible to say without knowing one more number: how much are you
