You might believe you should spend less time thinking about code because of AI. I strongly disagree! We’re watching this play out live where tons of AI generated code becomes a liability. At the end of the day, an engineer needs to be responsible / on call for code that gets shipped to production. If you don’t understand the system you’re trying to debug, you’re probably going to have a bad time. Yes, AI can help with all of this, if you set up the proper systems. You can have agents triage prod logs, look at errors, etc. You can speed up parts of the investigation, but an engineer needs to make the call. There might be serious customer or financial implications from that change. I expect the trend continue for trimming dependencies, vendoring code so you can modify it directly, preferring simpler systems with fewer abstractions, and spending waaaay more time thinking about system design and code maintenance. I’ve said this before, but it’s a great time to get familiar with CS fundamentals and some of the history behind what great software looks like. Many parts will be different in the coming years as AI progresses, but also a lot more than people realize will stay the same.

TeamPCP just did an interview where they were asked what defenders should do to stop supply chain attacks. Their advice: pin versions to a specific hash, use least-privilege tokens, restrict IDE extensions. And then, verbatim: "The company Socket will detect the malware before the package even reaches your machine." So... thanks, I think? We're not putting this on the testimonials page. But at the same time, if you're not yet using @SocketSecurity to protect your supply chain, what are you waiting for?
