Recently, there has been a rise in major security incidents, hacks, and zero-day vulnerabilities.Are you actively doing something to prevent your systems from being exploited, and how are you ensuring you haven't already suffered a data breach?To be honest, I'm scrambling my head thinking about all the possibilities, and it's making me a bit anxious.
The first is Networks by Analogy: https://networksbyanalogy.com
It’s a book about computer networking, but deliberately not protocol-first. I’m trying to explain the shape of the system using analogies and mental models first, then map those back onto the real machinery.
The second is Verachi: https://verachi.io
That one is about risk management. I’ve been noticing time and time again, in multiple orgs I’ve worked with, that direction and implementation don’t align in many cases. Devs end up doing work that no one asked for, and middle managers tend to “invent” irrelevant work.
The third is Midflight: https://midflight.dev
This is about learning software architectures using chaos testing. You can bring your own architecture, inject failures in safe environments, practice, and ultimately generate agent skills to automate fixes for these types of failures.
With Donald current shenanigans and for companies operating in Europe and/or Latin America: are you doing anything to ensure your business can continue if major US infrastructure providers become inaccessible (for geopolitical, regulatory, or sanctions-related reasons)?If yes, what stack choices and operational practices helped most (cloud, identity, observability, comms, CI/CD, payments,...
So, I'm building mooomooo, which is my idea of what it means to replace tools like JIRA, linear, and such with a unified data model that can adapt to solo devs, small teams and huge orgs so I don't have to manually move tickets to done.
I hope I can do my first release soon :)
And next will be AWS, Azure, GCP.
We really need to find alternatives to US services.
I don't want my business to depend on the mood of a single individual.
I’m not sure how to explain it, but it comes with a little bit of an attitude, a bit of a lazy, ‘figure it out yourself’ vibe. Even the replies don’t feel as ‘humble’ as o1’s.It’s almost like o3-mini was trained to be a manager. :P
The main reason I use Bear is for its markdown support. I write a lot of technical docs for $dayjob and side projects, so it’s a must-have for me.
If Apple Notes ever adds Markdown support (or at least proper code snippets), then bye bye to Bear.
It would even let me search my query history (but in a smarter way, I promise).
The idea is to:
1. Make it easier to find what I’ve already looked up, so when I search for something I’ve done before, I can quickly pull up what I found or did. 2. If not found locally, to combine several LLMs and search engines at the same time.
As long as exclusive games exists people will flock to their hardware. I personally dislike Nintendo as a company but I can't deny that some of the games they produce are the ones I enjoy the most.
Instead of fixing our culture, less move to a place where committing sexual harassment is "not that much of a problem" ... lol
