The AI Agents Hype: Loud Claims, Quiet Reality

A CTO-level view, backed by DORA, METR, McKinsey, and Goldman Sachs.
Why ATS Filters Aren't Enough for Hiring Decisions
Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) were supposed to make hiring simpler. They collect resumes, store candidates, and apply keyword filters so overwhelmed HR teams can quickly shortlist people who “match” the job description.

Surviving LLM Rate Limits: Building Backpressure

Building Reliable AI Pipelines on Azure
Modern AI systems fail more often than most engineers expect. Not because the models are fragile, but because the infrastructure surrounding them is. Network latency, cold starts, concurrency spikes, and the notorious 429 rate-limit errors all come into play.
