Colton Voege's personal blog at colton.dev covers programming, web and ai. Since 2025, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 5 times, most often “CSS's problems are Tailwind's problems”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2025-09-20, and you can follow it by feed.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
Just another grumpy dev blog.

HN discussionNo, AI is not Making Engineers 10x as Productive Curing Your AI 10x Engineer Imposter Syndrome https://colton.dev/blog/curing-your-ai-10x-engineer-imposter... The Math Let's start by looking at the simple math of 10-100x productivity. 10x productivity means ten times the outcomes, not ten times the lines of code. This means what you used to ship in a quarter you now ship in a week and a half. These numbers should ma…
