🔥 Check out this trending post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: An ever-increasing volume of debug investigations, document writing, and code is written by robots. This has created a new etiquette question when working with a team - when is it OK to forward the output of an AI to another human to read? On one hand, an AI with robust integration to internal code bases and documentation often produces genuinely useful output. On the other, as an increasing amount of a software engineer's day is spent reading AI text, a fatigue sets in. If…

Australia became the first country to implement such measures at the end of last year, setting a precedent that other countries are now closely monitoring. The Australian regulations, along with proposals from other countries, aim to reduce the pressures and risks young users may face on social media, which include cyberbullying, addiction, mental health issues and exposure to predators. Of course, there are…

We analyzed this as a way of simplifying a search problem: by using existing, working components as modules that can be combined, a few at a time, into more complex modules,…

In the season of massive IPOs, there's something almost strange about SPACs — in 2021, the drive-thru fad began in the space sector and spread throughout the tech world. Many SPACs have proven disastrous for retail investors who bet on immature companies, but some deals, notably Rocket Lab…

The new "Licensed Materials" terms cover code, containers, and modules run on local machines or private cloud, and require permanent deletion of every copy on termination. Contract language for on-prem delivery tends to ship before the product it is written for.In human terms: A business evaluating a locally deployed model for security-sensitive work reads the new section and finds the exit cost spelled out: when the contract ends,…

Investing through SPACs, where multiple parties pool their money to invest in a single company, has been around for a while. But SpaceX represents an unprecedented case of an IPO with multiple layers of these vehicles. Because demand for SpaceX allocations has been so…
🔥 Discover this awesome post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: When Google offered me the job of Director of Android Platform Security in 2017, it was impossible to refuse. Yes, Trump was already president—my family and I had qualms—but he seemed contained, even ineffective. More importantly, Google was a different company 9 years ago. Android was open source first and had just surpassed 2 billion users. I’d been studying its security from the outside since 2009, and it was (and still is!) the most exciting end-user facing operating system to work on. However, while the…

Client work in one bucket, personal branding in another, and side projects/adventures in a third. Inside of those, I would then categorize which engagement/project I was working on.At the end of the year, it was awesome! I had this huge breakdown of where all of my time went.
