If you follow AI's impact on software development, you may have heard about this thread. Here are my views on the topic futurumgroup.com/insights/ka…

I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue. There's a new programmable layer of abstraction to master (in addition to the usual layers below) involving agents, subagents, their prompts, contexts, memory, modes, permissions, tools, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP, LSP, slash commands, workflows, IDE integrations, and a need to build an all-encompassing mental model for strengths and pitfalls of fundamentally stochastic, fallible, unintelligible and changing entities suddenly intermingled with what used to be good old fashioned engineering. Clearly some powerful alien tool was handed around except it comes with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it and operate it, while the resulting magnitude 9 earthquake is rocking the profession. Roll up your sleeves to not fall behind.

I like the idea of the Google / WIZ deal.
My gut is 90% that this deal cannot make it through regulatory.
If it does, it is a brilliant tie up and critical for the necessary security posture in the AI era.
My sense is just too much regulatory pressure around Google right now. A deal of this size will be hard to get done.
We shall see.

I learn a lot when I watched this latest @TechstrongTV interview with Mitch Ashley and Brian Fox from @GetSonotype. This interview was one of many from #OSSummit, and I thought it was worth sharing.
At #OSSummit, there is a potential alarm with a security breach of the XZ open source project which has raised concerns about the safety and security of similar types of #opensource projects. The extent of the compromise is still being analyzed, but it is feared that it could have far-reaching consequences.
The XZ open-source project is a file compression tool used in various operating systems, including Linux. This breach has exposed the vulnerability of such projects to attacks by malicious actors. The concern is that other #opensource projects, particularly those that are widely used, may also be susceptible to similar cybersecurity threats.
It is imperative that the open source community takes note of this incident and takes proactive measures to ensure the security and integrity of their projects. This includes rigorous testing, timely patching of vulnerabilities, and constant monitoring of potential threats. Failure to do so could lead to severe consequences, both for the individual projects and the wider community.
I could not help but think, didn't we learn from 1980s movies? War Games pointed this out back then.
