This is minesweeper but with flowers, you can fork the game and make it your own with an AI prompt. I forked the minesweeper game and had it add flowers.
It was an interest story about Mitnick but the title is a stretch.
I would keep a more open mind and think about how you can contribute to the CEOs vision.
As a lead dev, how can you incorporate AI into you and your team’s workflow? If you don’t agree with a tech CEO pushing for the latest tech adoption I would do some soul searching.

how do you decide when to build an app?
Have you looked into having the AI assistant parse through the explain output and recommend changes to database structure?
are we taking bets on when google shuts this down?
Not sure why you think it's unlikely, they told you they would in their privacy policy.
"We may disclose or share your personal data to entities other than iFIT for a business purpose"

I would question why you are giving customers technical estimates instead of giving them expected release date.
Expected release dates should be broad, next month, next quarter, etc.
Estimated release dates take into discussion what is also being worked by development team.
I use Digital Ocean, GCP and AWS. I think each has a little bit of a different use case and as a dev we should be up for each of them. I can run a k8s cluster on digital ocean for like $20-30 a month and spin up multiple services for experiments.
However, there is not a great S3, Cloudfront equivalent on DO so I need AWS.
For ML/AI stuff, you need Google. There are probably a ton of these little variations.
i had lunch with a friend who was diagnosed with cancer, but then later found treatment to keep it at bay. i asked him what his thoughts were when he was first diagnosed, he shared that he wished he would have pushed things further to have more success in business.
maybe he was just sharing his business related thoughts with me, but i was left thinking about how i shouldn't put to much emphasis on achieving goals and just enjoying the ups and downs of the journey.
i think it is good to focus on accomplishments, but sometimes i just enjoy going through the motions of sitting down and completing one task, or debugging something that i won't figure out, or just drinking a cup of coffee and reading only one chapter of a book not to finish the rest.
For the tech, I am really excited about VR and brain computer interfaces. Just made an arduino weather station last night with my son and on the weekend made a VR room builder for webxr. I go in cycles though, maybe you are in a down cycle?
The internet has exploded where mainstream is connected. I grew up with IRC, 56.6k modems, trading playstation ISOs, on genmay instead of hackernews, etc. We are still here, there are just more around us where you have to dig a little.
Hey guys, we built this for an upcoming podcast and just thought we would post it online if anyone wanted to use it. Let me know if you would like to see any changes to it.

Smart contracts have clearly been adopted and are growing at an increasing rate more so than other technologies. Why is ThoughtWorks not including any on the radar?
when i am distributing work to software engineers, i try to assign work based on strengths, preferences and business needs.
if i were you and wanted to work on something different, i would first understand the business needs and the project and then tell the person who is managing the work what i wanted to work on in a polite manner.
e.g. if the contract is for QA work on a desktop app, then asking to redesign the thing on mobile isn't going to fly.

It is annual review time, and I have had to start writing performance reviews with team members on my team. Which means I pull up all my notes from email, text files and post it notes and try to write a clear concise report on each associate. I have been experimenting with different organizational tools like Apple Notes, One Note and Confluence but it just felt unorganized.So I created a...
Automatic OCR of what? The entire document?
What type of documents? No cloud because of a regulation?
Once you have the document what are you going to do with it?
Looks good. I think some real life use cases would help on the sales site.
So the use case is you have a company that only accepts PDFs as an input and you have a digital data set that you need to get each individual row into one PDF?
How do you handle signatures?
So is the moral of the story for a developer to make sure you have an updated privacy policy? If they would have updated the privacy policy on their product would they have been legally protected?
Anything by Manning that ends with "In Action". I volunteer to be a technical reviewer if there is a new technology I want to learn (and get a free physical book!)
Great write up. Does anybody have more information on the attack near the end "...defrauded by Lithuanian hacker gang which figured out how to use our application to proxy a telephone call through Twilio’s phone number verification feature to a phone sex line in the Caribbean..."
Sounds like you have no process:
Before task is assigned, there should be a technical design and acceptance criteria.
All code should be peer reviewed.
All code should have an attached unit test.
All code should be tested in a dev and cert environment.
So your churn of users acquired through Facebook ads was almost 100%? To confirm my understanding, thats why it was wasted? Why do you think they almost all left? I don't see a free pricing tier on your website now. Do you think the free pricing contributed heavily to your churn?
