Absolutely agree! When it comes to services, I believe the first step is always to listen. Understanding what the buyer actually needs helps us figure out what we can genuinely offer. Sometimes that conversation closes a deal, and sometimes it simply leaves someone feeling heard and understood. Either way, it builds trust. And that's how companies quietly build their reputation. Even if the need isn't there today, when it arises tomorrow, people are more likely to remember the ones who took the time to understand them.

That's a very good point. I especially agree that those safeguards should be deterministic regardless of whether the change was written by a developer or an AI agent. It also makes me wonder where we draw the line between vibe coding and AI-assisted engineering. The original appeal of vibe coding is that intent can replace much of the implementation knowledge required to build something. Once we introduce structured tests, static checks, architectural controls and human review, AI is still making development faster—but perhaps we're no longer really “vibe coding.” We're engineering with AI as an accelerator. That distinction is something I've been thinking about more since writing this.
