LLMs don’t understand your system. They amplify it. Good structure → better code Bad structure → faster chaos Unbounded LLMs + implicit architecture = broken systems. Context isn’t documentation. It’s architecture. Context-Driven Engineering: thanpol.as/engineering/conte…

Context-Driven Engineering: A Paradigm Shift for Teams Building with LLMs

What happens when you give a powerful code generator unbounded access to a codebase with no explicit context. And how to fix it.

Spent the past week building a job matcher with Claude. CV in, personal scoring rubric out. Every new remote eng job scored against it. You only see what clears your bar. I need a few beta testers. Remote-only. Ping me. arrivance.ai #claude #remote

Arrivance | Opportunities Arrive

For senior engineers who already have a bar. Set your standard. Every new remote engineering role is scored against it. Only the matches reach you.

Your team adopted LLMs. Velocity went up. Then, the system got harder to reason about. Changes broke things in unexpected ways... This is not coincidence. This is what happens when powerful LLMs have unbounded access to your code base. New post: thanpol.as/engineering/conte…

One of the last and independent voices of science, Sabine (@skdh), got completely independent today and took the gloves off. If you don't know her already, 100% subscribe and watch this video 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=ZO5u3V6L…

Things began to look very unusual two months ago. Today the charts need no commentary, they speak for themselves. This is the Atlantic. xitter.cf/DrTELS/status/16505623…

This is so unusual. That's a *huge* amount of energy being transferred to the atmosphere. Expect extreme temperature and storm records. Just the top few metres of our oceans store as much energy as the entirety of our atmosphere. I'm very concerned for later this year into 2024.

Just finished watching #1899Netflix. What a colossal waste of time. Writers fucking around with decades old cliches. A shallow thriller that will leave you empty.
Have you done a full life-cycle of AWS S3 Object integrity validations? It appears to be more complicated than it sounds since S3 will Checksum each chunk individually of a multi-part upload (of big files)... If you've done this before, please help: stackoverflow.com/questions/…

Not using unique IDs on your web app GET requests is a valid security consideration as @rez0__ explains in this article. It breaks a long adopted RESTfull design pattern, but security > RESTfull

🎉New blog post 🎉 If you've ever struggled to get an IDOR with a UUID past triage, hopefully this will help! If you've got no idea what I'm talking about, I explain it in the post 😊 rez0.blog/hacking/cybersecur…

IDORs with unpredictable IDs are valid vulnerabilities

It’s an eye-door, get it?

Just watched the latest episode of #ForAllMankind on my 16" macbook, with my wife, under the summer night stars, streaming it using @SpaceXStarlink... I am now complete.
