Generally speaking, humans are more often than not the weakest link the chain when it comes to cyber security, so the fact that most of their access comes from social engineering isn't the least bit surprising. They themselves are like

So how do you catch the errors that AI made in the pull request? Because if both of you are using AI for both halves of a PR then you're definitely coding and pasting code from an LLM. Which is almost always hot garbage if you actually

Do you also teach kids about jail time and/or being blackballed by the industry? Because no matter how well-intentioned you are I can see a 13 year old me doing the naughty thing.

A few years back I was working at a software company that provided on-site sensor sensor networks to hospitals, pharmacies, etc. Our product required them to physically install a server on-site, but we were starting to get disrupted by clou

This article is really only useful if LLMs are actually able to close the gap from where they are now to where they want to be in a reasonable amount of time. There are plenty of historical examples of technologies where the last few milest

I've got a hard time believing most folks are clicking on the sources that LLM chatbots sometimes provide with their answers. Especially because they've been hard sold on the idea that AI chatbots are as smart as the smartest peop

Bro, you're not a museum who's invested thousands or more into a single piece. Paying $2000 for the framing service to be done right is worth it when you're protecting a big investment.

The reason LLMs suck in plenty of brownfield projects is because those codebases likely either implemented frameworks in a proprietary way, maybe did not rely on any public framework at all, or were in general done in an esoteric way and th

Like 2 years ago I did a similar thing except my goal was to sell instructions on how to see a Djinn in your dreams. Which is a pretty common thing for middle-aged Arab women to claim they can do, and they'll usually tell their husband

You do know that amphetamines have a different effect on the people who need them and the people who use the recreationally, right? For those of us with ADHD their effects are soothing and calming. I literally took 20mg after having to wait

Honestly, why would anyone find this information useful? Creating a brand new greenfield project is a terrible test. Because literally anything it outputs as long as it looks good as long as it works following the happy path. Coding with LL

One of the biggest problems I've run into AI tooling is they brute force a solution instead of subconsciously thinking about things that engineers subconsciously think about while crafting a solution, so even if it does manage to solve

>It's only been a golden age because of high salaries for relatively low effort. Money is how you define a Golden Age of Programming? I consider the late 1990s and early 2000s more of a Golden Age, and my reasons for it have nothing

There's more than just technical ability at play when comes to what to do with a bad performer. Because if you hired them, or pushed for their promotion, or whatever and it doesn't work it makes you look bad too. Hence its actuall

A few years back somebody on Reddit posted a spreadsheet with tech companies that were hiring SWEs at that time, so to try and help my wife who's been hunting since her arrival in the states in October I decided to revisit last week. I

Americans have a very 1980s idea of manufacturing (and China in general) in that there aren't actually that many humans being used in Chinese factories let alone the American ones some of them want to build here. There's even a co

So I've dealt with mental illnesses throughout my life and I can confidently say things are a hell of a lot better now than when I was a kid. They literally understood so little about the subject that there were basically 3 categories

You've noticed two things: 1. Every generation of programmers typically only has a certain window of knowledge, and everything before their time is simply foreign to them. Most developers aren't programming history buffs, they don

That's actually not true at all. According to interviews a lot of people actually miss it. I believe it was a German documentary that I first heard it in. I'm kind of obsessed with this place and even created a game around the pre
