Walk into any modern engineering shop and you’ll hear the cultist chant: "we’re Cloud Native". The term itself has become a kind of badge—containers, Kubernetes, microservices, serverless.

In March 1972, the U.S. Air Force started a review of a Honeywell Multics system to understand whether it could be used in secure environments. The report was issued in mid-1974 and concluded that Multics, while not secure, was better than its peers and might be a reasonable starting point for a secure system.24 The report raised the potential of adding a back door (it was called a “trap door”) to an innocent system call. When passed a specific, very unlikely input, the system call allowe...| cacm.acm.org

It applies only to “virtually” all software, whatever “virtually” means. Clearly there are organizations and individuals not using LLMs or using them in a secured fashion (eg locally). The logic doesn’t apply to them.

To the extent that individuals at these two companies (or others like them) are using competito...| Holy Ghost Stories

Adam Tornhill This was an odd read. I think the core idea—version control systems are a layer of metadata on top of our code, which we seldom use for anything valuable but should—is a good one, but the actual implementation of the book just didn’t work for me.
