I like coding katas (or even trying leetcode problems) when learning new languages.

Wouldn't it maybe make more sense to try to use Cursor-style auto complete if you are trying to learn a language in this day and age?

Having Codex/Claude write all of it won't really benefit you imho.

Tailwind makes sense when you can use React Components to build a reusable design system. It is annoying as heck to use if you don't have that superstructure.

To add: I dont want to go back to writing semantic css.. no thanks - I dont go in time-back machines. This is a mess.

Just using tailwind and anchoring around a design system like shadcn is just way easier for a team to align around than somebodys made up css language.

I was on gitlab up until nov last year. I don't really miss it; have yet to experience issues with github.

Gitlab pricing was bonkers. It always felt like their sales team were trying to play gotcha with us over the years with pricing schemes that would milk us for money.

Definitively something to be said for AI/ML library support. I find myself going with Rust / TS for a ton of my backend work lately though, even though I'm a huge Django fan for backend.

My mom would love this one :) .. she told me recently about a long-running chat gpt session that she's had for over a week, where she was going back and forth trying to figure out the source of some strange sound in the building.

Maybe take your mother to brunch or something. I am pretty sure it will be better than any chatgpt session she has running for a week

I think that's the actual risk, that you're /not/ as comforting and less enjoyable to talk to. I know this is true for many people already.

> No this will not stop this and companies need to be held accountable for their lack of security investment.

I think in principle, its sound. Im also just baffled hearing anecdotes from friends that are in big corp world and hearing the type of incidents they have, and how they respond to it.. It makes me wonder if there is enough capable talent to go around for the "boring corp" crowd.

Hint: I don't think there is nearly enough talent to go round, but for these companies, its either that they think they have solid experts (and didn't), OR its not a real priority until you get hit.

As someone who is building an AI tool in this category, can you give examples? :)

I've tried to focus more on end-user use-cases in my own product positioning, even though security is absolutely at the top of my list. This was hard to watch because it felt it demonstrated a security feature that is really secondary to the purpose of an agent.

What would be a spin in this AI category that would excite or surprise you?

This is so cool - I am in the process of building an open-source "dark factory" ai platform and wanted to give my CTO agent a way to stay current on infosec and cves. You should create a MCP for this!

Thanks for the feedback! Feel free to sign up and generate an RSS feed for particular topics which you want to ingest into your tool. I've just started exploring MCP's recently and agree this would be quite a cool thing to support. I'll look into it.

A rss is perfect, will definitively use that. Btw, I'm a long-time django developer as well - you have good taste, sir.

Honestly, I think if you had a push model for this, some folks would be willing to pay for it, but I don't know a whole lot about this space and your potential competitors. Happy to chat more if you want.
