# Fragments: April 9

**[Martin Fowler](https://daily.dev/sources/mafo)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Martin Fowler's link roundup covers four topics: a podcast with Simon Willison on how AI has changed programming since the 'November inflection point'; a podcast with Uber's former CTO on scaling microservices and sacrificial architecture; a detailed post-mortem on the Axios npm supply chain attack via social engineering and a Remote Access Trojan; an introduction to the Diátaxis documentation framework; and a developer's candid account of building a SQLite toolchain with AI agents, including lessons on when AI helps versus harms — particularly its inability to judge API quality without objective metrics.
