AI Reduces Entry-Level Hiring in Software Development

A JetBrains survey of over 15,000 developers shows 90% use AI coding agents at least weekly. A Stanford study 'Canaries in the Coal Mine' reports a 20% decline in employment for software developers aged 22-25 in the US since late 2022, while experienced developers see growth. This trend worries the author, Dr. Volker Oshege, chairman of viadee, as it threatens the future talent pipeline. He argues that AI shifts bottlenecks to review capacity and guardrails, requiring human judgment. He advocates for mixed teams, buddy systems, and continuous training to ensure the workforce of 2036. The article is an opinion piece, not a news report, and contains no specific corporate announcements or financial data.

A New Agentic Experience: JetBrains Air in IDEs – EAP Now Open

Last week, we shared our point of view on where we think agentic development is headed and introduced JetBrains' answer to it: JetBrains Air, an open system of products for agentic development. To…

How AGI Became a Marketing Department Case

The article discusses how AI, particularly coding agents, is transforming the role of software developers. It highlights that 90% of professional developers use such tools weekly, with 68% daily, and about a third are 'agentic coders' who generate 84% of their code via AI. This shift is changing the developer's role from generalist to specialist, and now to a 'Forward Deployed Engineer' who works closely with clients. The article emphasizes that the real value of developers is shifting from pure coding capacity to understanding business context, identifying problems, and making sound technical decisions. It draws on examples from Google Research and the hiring practices of OpenAI and Anthropic, and suggests that businesses should focus on teams that can quickly build domain context rather than just counting developers.

• 90% of professional developers use coding agents weekly, 68% daily (JetBrains survey).
• One third of developers are 'agentic coders' generating 84% of their code via AI.
• Google Research is investigating whether software agents understand standards and collaborate with developers.

Prisma ORM Manifesto 2026: Open, Extensible, Collaborative

The five principles behind Prisma ORM 8: an open framework and ecosystem, tools that are safe to delegate, exceptional DX, modern JavaScript, and stewardship.

Prisma Is Building the Stack for the Next Million Products

Prisma is building a software factory: one environment where a builder describes what they want and an agent builds it, runs it, inspects it, fixes it, and keeps going. Prisma ORM, Prisma Postgres, and Prisma Compute, connected into one loop.

Atomicity fix for Formbricks AI demo

An open-source contributor found a bug in Formbricks' AI example-response generator where a mid-batch failure left partially committed synthetic survey data, preventing retries. The author reproduced the failure deterministically, implemented a transactional patch using Prisma transactions and a PostgreSQL FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock, and added tests to ensure generated batches either fully commit or fully roll back for the tested failure modes. The model call remains outside the transaction; state is revalidated and a narrow persistence context is used before committing. The upstream issue remained open and the proposed fix lives in the author's fork as of 2026-08-21.

• Formbricks is an open-source experience-management platform that can generate example survey responses for demo purposes.
• A bug allowed partial database commits during example-response generation: some Responses, Displays and Tag links could persist even when the overall operation failed.
• The author reproduced the failure deterministically and implemented a patch that uses a single Prisma transaction, acquires a PostgreSQL FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock, revalidates state, and persists the entire synthetic batch through the same transaction client.
