I use chatbots a lot to explore things that I am not so well versed with, about coding and other things. As an entry point it's very useful. LLMs also help to discover more advanced knowledge that are opaque otherwise. Of course using

> Yeah, I don't think you really learn a language with agentic coding, at least you wont become fluent writing it. Don't misquote me for your agenda. It's a statement about the quality of learning.

Comparing rust to javascript, the gscore is rather similar in distribution, while python falls off. I don't see why python should be so much worse?

Somehow we've decided to trust and connect everything. It became industry standard, because it's convenient. It's a side effect of complexity. Even if you're skilled, if you are forced into these practices, then you will

From what I understand they've wrote the poisoned payload directly to the file system where they've expected another package exists. You only need to know what hash is going to be created.

Fully agree. I was very confused trying to understand the attack. There are so many things involved that a casual user will never get security right. Even if you are knowledgeable it's very draining if you have to catch up, securing al

It's interesting that you say that JS isn't inherently bad, but everyone uses TS. Is there something bad about vanilla? Either way, my problem isn't generally JS as is, but that it is the only language, the only platform that

His whole sentiment was yelling several times "LLMs did this". He wanted to smuggle his pro AI attribution in, one way or another. In that way I could also argue "without humans, we wouldn't have LLMs." But it doesn

My comment was solely about the correct attribution who made the initial finding. It's not a comment about the value of AI. I think we can get facts right and still argue for or against AI.

The finding started with human intuition and was assisted by an LLM. You can yell "AI sec firm" 1000 times. A human got it started. You shouldn't die on that hill.

Such invasive practices are pretty disgusting. But I don't think it will be pervasive. Once it spreads, AI vendors and abusive companies will be hold accountable. There is also an obvious conflict, the surveillance will likely be very

Sure. Still from what he said, your company wants every communication from you stored somewhere, ready for analysis. I don't think an unfiltered data acquisition is good, my interpretation and decision making is also part of my work. A

An LLMs "wrong" decision is either systemic or biased. They learn "common sense" from human input (i.e. shared datasets, reinforcement learning). If a decision is flat out wrong for you, asking 10 LLMs is unlikely to hel

If the default mode is that LLMs generate crap code that you have to fix with even more LLMs, then something is fundamentally wrong. In terms of over engineering, I wouldn't be surprised if the human tendency for skeuomorphism (combine

In my opinion the best method to reduce alerts is to work hard to get rid of the underlying problems or turn them into a non-problems. If you do a good job most errors are 3rd party driven, that can be indeed hard to solve relative to compa
