No media player needed when you are already in the terminal. - [Pricing wars are good for developers](/pricing-wars-are-good-for-developers) (Jul 2026 · Original · Opinion): Three TTS providers changed pricing in the same week, all in one direction: down. Cheaper voice is good for developers, and the trend is not slowing. - [Building a writing routine that actually sticks](/building-a-writing-routine-that-works) (Jul 2026 · Original · Developer Experience): A daily writing habit that finally works: one post a day, a weekly format rota, and a hard time box that forces the draft to exist. - [Finding the rhythm: first impressions of a new role in a new corner of AI](/finding-the-rhythm-first-impressions) (Jul 2026 · Original · Developer Experience): Finding the rhythm four weeks into a new DevRel role: what surprised me about text-to-speech, what I was right about, and what I am still figuring out. - [Onboarding at a new company: what I wish I had known](/onboarding-at-a-new-company-what-i-wish-id-known) (Jul 2026 · Original · Developer Experience): Onboarding at a new company after years at the same one: imposter feelings that hit harder, domain knowledge that transfers slowly, and remote loneliness. - [Voice AI mid-2026: the trends I am watching](/voice-ai-industry-thoughts-mid-2026) (Jul 2026 · Original · Voice AI): Quality convergence, pricing pressure, open-weight models, and the regulatory shift. The voice AI landscape halfway through 2026. - [What surprised me about TTS API design after years of STT](/what-surprised-me-about-tts-api-design) (Jul 2026 · Original · API Design): After years of speech-to-text, TTS API design broke my assumptions: output parameters everywhere, SSML that fights you, and speech marks nobody mentions. - [Working in public vs working in private](/working-in-public-vs-working-in-private) (Jul 2026 · Original · Developer Experience): Developer relations means producing content in public while the product is being built in private. That tension is harder to manage than I expected. - [5 voice AI stories that shaped the start of July](/five-voice-ai-stories-start-of-july-2026) (Jul 2026 · Original · Voice AI): The five voice AI stories that shaped early July: OpenAI's voice reasoning model, ElevenLabs at $22B, Deepgram going multilingual, and Gemini using a computer.
