LLMs don’t understand your system.
They amplify it.
Good structure → better code
Bad structure → faster chaos
Unbounded LLMs implicit architecture = broken systems.
Context isn’t documentation.
It’s architecture.

Spent the past week building a job matcher with Claude.
CV in, personal scoring rubric out. Every new remote eng job scored against it. You only see what clears your bar.
I need a few beta testers. Remote-only. Ping me.

Your team adopted LLMs. Velocity went up.
Then, the system got harder to reason about. Changes broke things in unexpected ways...
This is not coincidence. This is what happens when powerful LLMs have unbounded access to your code base.

Things began to look very unusual two months ago.
Today the charts need no commentary, they speak for themselves.
This is the Atlantic.

This is so unusual. That's a *huge* amount of energy being transferred to the atmosphere. Expect extreme temperature and storm records. Just the top few metres of our oceans store as much energy as the entirety of our atmosphere. I'm very concerned for later this year into 2024.

Just finished watching #1899Netflix. What a colossal waste of time. Writers fucking around with decades old cliches. A shallow thriller that will leave you empty.

Have you done a full life-cycle of AWS S3 Object integrity validations?
It appears to be more complicated than it sounds since S3 will Checksum each chunk individually of a multi-part upload (of big files)...
If you've done this before, please help: stackoverflow.com/questions/…

T Minus 1h 55minutes for the historic inaugural test launch of the @NASAArtemis 1 Moon mission on top of the SLS rocket.
This launch marks the return of humanity back to the moon.

Not using unique IDs on your web app GET requests is a valid security consideration as @rez0__ explains in this article.
It breaks a long adopted RESTfull design pattern, but security > RESTfull

🎉New blog post 🎉
If you've ever struggled to get an IDOR with a UUID past triage, hopefully this will help!
If you've got no idea what I'm talking about, I explain it in the post 😊

Just watched the latest episode of #ForAllMankind on my 16" macbook, with my wife, under the summer night stars, streaming it using @SpaceXStarlink...
I am now complete.
