I would highly recommend using ORM's, with the caveat to know exactly when not to use them. Startups do not fall in that bucket. 1. Most of these advices are unfortunately impractical and incomplete for startups. A good Data Model is h

LLM is not hacking itself, its a PR spin if anything. LLM is an input output system, there is no more hacking than that. What gets abused or hacked is how the input is parsed, validated to guard certain information (training data). Security

Security exists in multiple layers. CVEs do not make a system vulnerable by default, there has to be a way to exploit them. Questions one can ask, is your system connected to internet, what does your fire wall looks like, which ports are op

Simplicity is relative from where I see things in a particular domain. Security does not have any direct ROI on it, the security engineers are hired way too late in the game when all the stack is almost buried in deep decisions. The concept

Based on my limited understanding what it translates to is - Its a simple infrastructure security issue, instead of taking the responsibility for being lackluster with security they are just giving it a PR spin story. Resembles a lot with m

This is an interesting topic in itself, pretty much applies to all shared spaces. The security challenge is somewhat solvable with shared (tenant based) databases, I am more worried about the noisy neighbor problem. Its really easy to write

My guess is these AI companies are counting on the money to come from traditional SAAS style services only. This whole AI would be used to gather enough capital to rewrite most of the existing SAAS services under one umbrella, sort of supe

This seems like a easy way to get into consulting. Once you deliver the code back to the owners they are going to do the vibe coding again on the top whatever refactored code you get back. In other words it can become a perpetual cycle.
