This is gonna to be a textbook incident going forward. Wild to see
they've been non stop trying to attack our systems for the past 48 hours a side effect is everything is getting hardened but damn we basically need agents going 24/7 because that's what they have

Hot take: ai generated variable names are too short and vague most of the time. Sincerely, someone that wants snake case and at least three_descriptor_words

Friday was my last day at @ZephyrCloudIO. Now, I'm looking for my next role. I've been agentic coding and learning how to be more efficient with token usage. I led our company in UX design and engineering. I would love to stay in a UXE role, but open to leadership roles as well. I learned that my leadership skills have tremendous value with my experience. If you have an opening, or know someone that may, please let me know. I had other co-workers impacted as well, and can vouch for them.

I’ve been catching missteps in code review since watching this. A lot of it has been agents picking up anti patterns and extending them in a manner that further degrades codebase quality. Knowing the tradeoffs between better agent results 🆚 human readability is clutch.
here's how i shipped 2,500 PRs last month to production this was originally supposed to be for Cursor Compile in London. i couldn't make it since i was livestreaming for Grok @Bot Galaxy so i'm making it available for free here on X! watch it on 2x speed, i talk slowly

We in Gridiron Survivor were given our next selection of research topics. This time relating to building @Atlassian Forge applications. My topic is "Deployment and Infrastructure." I have an idea for my live demo presentation. It will require me to do some building, and I'm looking forward to it. Building to learn, create, and educate. Hopefully I can hurry up and get used to presenting. Getting back into it is rough. Thank you, @shashiwhocodes for running such a great program, and for securing such rocking sponsors of @GitKraken, @ZephyrCloudIO, & @frontendmentor <3

If you’re the web dev that built the feature that listens for screen dim and pauses gateway ads to American Airlines WiFi… You’re a D1 Narc and I hate you

Super excited to be interviewing @poteto, live, in ~48 hours on YouTube. We'll be nerding out about skills, high-velocity software factories, and learning SOTA techniques for shipping with agents. This Friday - 9AM PT. Don't miss it! piped.video/live/MN9dGgmLyso
