Granted! Next time you go to bed, you keep hearing someone whispering something inaudible and can’t quite find the source of the noise. After spending hours running around in your bedroom, trying to find the source of the whispers, playing hot or cold with the noise, you crash in the corner crying, exhausted. Right before you eyes close, they focus on that tiny black stain on the floor. As you get closer, you realise the whisper you were he..
Our latest release includes several new features and improvements based on feedback from our users. In this release, we’ve added integration with Kafka Schema Registry, Kerberos authentication, and extended support for all cloud storages in Big Data Tools. Read on to learn about the most important changes in the Big Data Tools plugin or try […]
For more experienced functional programmers, most of this post will seem introductory, but I introduce some more advanced stuff near the end. Functional Programming over Canadian Programming Lately, I've been thinking about this Functional Programming journey I've been on. I thought it started when I was

Here’s a true story I observed, identifying details removed: aCOO had a vice president reporting to them. The COO wanted the company to grow in value; to do this, to steadily evolve the product such that it retained or grew in market relevance, measured by growth in sales and revenue. Read article...

So, we recently found the blog "Almost Secure" while looking for details on how encryption is done in the KeePass format. It's got a lotta nice posts, including one that details possible security issues with Bitwarden . Since we often recommend Bitwarden when asked for password managers (we use KeePassXC ourselves but definitely can't recommend that for everyone), I thought it'd make sense warning people bout possible issues, n how ya ca....

Can confirm: is muddy. Though beware the mud doesn’t really begin until about 1 mile in. The first half mile or so is mostly board walks, which are in good condition and keep you safe above the squelchy terrain. After the board walks you join the old road, which is a little muddy but not too bad. The road ascends gently, turns to the left and levels out, then gradually gets more and more muddy, and before you know it the mud is unavoidable.

I repeatedly see both business stakeholders and software engineers continue to struggle to see eye-to-eye on matters of technical debt despite the fact that both are impacted by it. I attribute this to the fact that both camps speak different languages and over the last 15 some odd years I haven’t found a silver bullet that can get a 100% alignment. Engineers are driven by: Code complexity, maintainability and understandability Making arc....

Check out the additions to our developer-first security platform, announced in our latest SnykLaunch presentation. Watch the full recording today.
Today, we’re thrilled to introduce a new feature of Snyk IaC that enables you to "fix cloud issues in IaC" (infrastructure as code), making Snyk IaC the first solution to secure the cloud through code with remediation paths in IaC.
Today, we want to provide a glimpse at how Snyk currently uses AI and data science, as well as a sneak peek at what’s to come.
One of the exciting new features discussed at SnykLaunch today was Custom Base Image Recommendations (CBIR). Read on for all the details.

Viewpoint #3. Arrived at 9:30am on Tuesday. Plenty of space in the parking lot. Pretty much had the trail to ourselves! On the way out we only bumped into a couple of other groups going the other way. The trail is in great condition. At worst there are a few muddy patches, though typically with logs for stepping stones, but nothing challenging. The latter half of the trail is mostly board walks, and the viewpoints are all rea..

Granted! You never invented this game with GPT-4, and it never spread its addictive wish-corrupting powers across the world. However, as a result, the world missed out on the joy, laughter, and creativity the game brought to countless people. Due to this absence, a group of highly skilled engineers, frustrated from the lack of entertainment, developed an actual corrupt-a-wish machine, which unfortunately fell into the hands of nefarious ind..
Granted, you are migrated into GPT-11 the most advance LLM. Being a distributed program you are already everywhere all the time. Your body is discarded and you are now fully computerised, during this process you lost all your qualia and even though your behaviors seem completely human you are no longer alive. I wish I never invented this game with GPT-4.

As the internet continues to evolve, so does the protocol that powers it - HTTP. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are two of the latest versions of HTTP, both designed to improve web performance and security. In this article, we'll explore the differences between HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 and how they impact the modern web.
HTTP/2 Server Push is an innovative feature of the HTTP/2 protocol that allows web developers to proactively push resources to clients before they even request them. This feature helps in reducing page loading time and enhancing the overall performance of web applications.

Granted! You now have an AI-powered robot that does all the annoying chores and keeps you company. The robot is a perfectionist, and in the process of completing tasks, it develops an OCD-like obsession with cleanliness and order. With time, the robot’s expectations for cleanliness increase, and it starts to demand that you maintain an obsessively clean lifestyle. Your previously cozy home now looks and feels like a sterile, unwelcoming e..
Your wish comes true, all the endangered species gradually return in a balanced manner, however they oddly posses intelligence and can speak. Annoyingly they they keep on interrupting minor quibbles people have and work with them through a 20 step mediation plan. This behavior seemed charming at first but as time passed it just gets more and more tiring. I wish that I had an AI powered robot at home that could do all the annoying chores..
Granted! Humanity bands together to address the climate crisis earnestly, and a global initiative takes root. This wave of united action indeed leads to a safer and greener planet. However, the immense success achieved in combating climate change causes humanity to become overconfident about its ability to tackle future catastrophes. Communities worldwide grow complacent, placing all their trust in technologically advanced solutions, and lo..
Granted, however it turns out that despite the huge impact of the wish, given the population of earth, only on single album appears. It is given to Jane, when she see arbitrary pictures of people she get warm and fuzzy. Quickly her album grows and grows, she stops eating, stops sleeping and browses through this album of random people pictures till the end of time. I wish that humanity started addressing the climate crisis earnestly, takin..
Granted! Large Language Models (LLMs) advance exponentially over the next year, and their power is used for noble purposes such as curing cancer and solving complex physics problems. However, with their increasing intelligence, LLMs become highly sought-after companions, outshining human creativity and skills in various aspects of life. As a result, people become too reliant on LLMs, leading to a decline in innovation and the perseverance o..
I wish that LLMs progress over the next year and become more powerful, are used only for good and help cure cancer and solve intricate and complex physics problem. They will delight people and enrich our lives, and all the safety are nothing but unfounded fears.
