Often times when software developers encounter nightmare codebases, the thought crosses their mind to work towards a rewrite, a port to a new language, or despair that their code is unfixable. It’s not unfixable, and we explore how to get started along with an array of other software topics in our eponymous podcast.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-26T04:27:24.764642+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/never-rewrite-software-engineering-ai-coding-6208168"},"episode":{"title":"AI & WIP Fundamentals (Ep. 167)","slug":"ai-wip-fundamentals-ep-167","published_at":"2026-08-07T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/never-rewrite-software-engineering-ai-coding-6208168/ai-wip-fundamentals-ep-167","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/never-rewrite-software-engineering-ai-coding-6208168","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/5ff5b3c497d5c072de979ce323e57c6b43491dae0473f8b49542b35d83ed0119/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiJjNzVlNmM2ZS00ZjY0LTQ5ZjMtOTM5Zi00ZGIwOGY2OTcxMmIiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI3YTA3YTNiYS0wNzY2LTQzOTUtOTFlNy01MTFkZmM5MmEzZjAiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NTBkZGJjZDU5NTYwNGVjYjNiMTRmZmIiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmE2YmEzZWU4YzI4Y2E4NDljZjcyMjQ3L25ldmVyLXJld3JpdGUtY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi03LTMwX18yMS0yMC0xNC5tcDMifQ==.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/5ff5b3c497d5c072de979ce323e57c6b43491dae0473f8b49542b35d83ed0119/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiJjNzVlNmM2ZS00ZjY0LTQ5ZjMtOTM5Zi00ZGIwOGY2OTcxMmIiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI3YTA3YTNiYS0wNzY2LTQzOTUtOTFlNy01MTFkZmM5MmEzZjAiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NTBkZGJjZDU5NTYwNGVjYjNiMTRmZmIiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmE2YmEzZWU4YzI4Y2E4NDljZjcyMjQ3L25ldmVyLXJld3JpdGUtY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi03LTMwX18yMS0yMC0xNC5tcDMifQ==.mp3","summary":"In this episode, Jeffrey Sherman shares insights on how AI can optimize legacy code testing, improve build times, and address the challenges of organic codebases.
