@cra Passport control officer asked me, "Which conference are you going to?" I replied, "KubeCon." He said, "I know this KubeCon. Welcome to Amsterdam!"

Open source @Qdrant just raised $50M and what it means is that vector database (or what Andre Zayarni prefers to call the '..information retrieval layer for the AI age') is more relevant than ever before.

Software engineers, you have 5 days left.
14 March 2025. Amodei said that AI would write all the software in 12 months. That's five days from now. Prepare to disappear.

Dustin@r0ck3t23
Dario Amodei just told software engineers exactly how long they have. Six to twelve months. Amodei: “I have engineers within Anthropic who say I don’t write any code anymore. I just let the model write the code, I edit it, I do the things around it.” The people building the most powerful AI in history have already stopped writing code. That is not a forecast. That is the current working condition inside the lab closest to the frontier. Amodei: “We might be six to 12 months away from when the model is doing most, maybe all, of what SWEs do end-to-end.” The tech industry spent a decade making software engineers its highest-paid, most protected class. That era has a last day now. When a model can execute an entire software build end-to-end, the ability to write syntax stops being a skill. It becomes a credential for a job that no longer exists. Amodei: “And then it’s a question of how fast does that loop close.” That is the sentence everyone skipped. The code was never the hard part. The hard part was everything around it. The model just learned everything around it. Writing the code is already nearly gone. Testing is next. Deployment is next. When all three collapse into a single autonomous execution loop, the machine no longer needs a human in the chain at all. The corporation or sovereign state that closes that loop first does not gain a competitive advantage. It gains a category of speed that biological engineers cannot match, track, or reverse. That is not disruption. That is replacement at a systems level. Amodei is not describing a future disruption. He is describing the current state of his own building. The loop is already closing. The only question is whether you are inside it or outside it when it seals.

@jesseproudman @Sonos Living proof that bad software obliterates good hardware.
English
I’ve spent more time configuring, reconfiguring and screwing around with @Sonos products than I’ve spent actually listening to music from them.
I can’t think a single worse product experience for anything I’ve ever owned.
I will ensure whatever house I ever move to in the future, that Sonos gear is never part of it.

Great question.
When you store passwords, you don't store them directly (that would be unsafe). Instead, you "hash" them. It is hashing that turns "password123" into something like "a7f8k2m9x4".
The problem is, if two people use "password123", they both get the same hash result. Hackers know this and have giant cheat sheets that say "if you see a7f8k2m9x4, the original password was password123."
The solution to this is "salting". Before hashing the password, you add some random junk to it.
So for User A, you might add "xyz" to their password, making it "password123xyz" before hashing.
For User B with the same password, you add different junk like "abc", making it "password123abc".
Now when hashed, they look completely different.
Benefits of salting is that even if a million people use "password123", every single one looks different in your database.
Hackers have to work much harder to crack each password individually

What is salting and why do we salt passwords?

@solomonstre My understanding is that Harada is used more with founders, while OKRs continue to be popular organization-wide.
They're complimentary, right?

OKRs had a good run.

When Shohei Ohtani was a high school freshman, he created a detailed "dream sheet" with one central goal: to be the #1 draft pick for 8 NPB (Nippon Professional Baseball) teams. It was a 64-cell roadmap based on a framework called the Harada Method. Here's exactly what Shohei did 👇 1. First, some history.... The Harada Method was created by Takashi Harada, a Japanese junior high track coach. He took a team ranked last out of 380 schools and, using his system, turned them into the #1 team in the region within 3 years. They held that top spot for the next 6 years. 2. You start by placing your main goal in the center of an 8x8 grid. For Ohtani, this was "be the #1 draft pick." 3. Next, you identify 8 critical supporting pillars needed to achieve that goal. These surround the main goal. Ohtani's 8 pillars were: • Body • Control • Sharpness • Speed • Pitch Variance • Personality • Karma/Luck • Mental Toughness 4. You then break down each of those 8 pillars into 8 smaller, actionable tasks or daily routines. This fills out the entire 64-cell grid, turning a massive dream into a concrete, daily action plan. To improve his karma, he listed tangible actions like: • Showing Respect to Umpires • Picking up trash • Being positive • Being someone people want to support 5. The method goes far deeper than just technical skills. It forces you to analyze your weaknesses and build confidence. It also has a highlight on service to others, emphasizing that humility and contributing to your community are essential for personal success. 6. The key to the system is daily execution and accountability. Once the 64-cell chart is complete, you turn the tasks and habits into a daily diary and a "Routine Check Sheet." It’s designed to transform abstract intentions into a measurable, daily practice.

@shar1z @sfmcguire79 Part of me wonders if the assignments need to be reimagined to reflect the use of AI... require students to use the tools and produce more advanced work than was possible before.

@sfmcguire79 I remember when Cliff Notes were a life hack and were considered cheating by most - and you actually had to read 100 pages end to end.
If only I lived in the age of AI, I would have had a PhD by now.
