Sadly, CERN is not hiring Russians

Is that even legal under Swiss discrimination laws?

There seems to be a massive push against DEI over the last few years in the tech industry globally, despite it being one of the industry's greatest strength.

Does anyone know what caused this?

Change the physical conference into a virtual one, this way it respects the speakers, allow people to mingle and ideas to flourish.

It's no replacement for an in-person conference, but this approach is better than straight up cancelling everything.

Government put their national interest ahead of NGO organisations should not come as a surprise to anyone.

This reads like a failing part on the organisers to manage such risk, and decided to kick up a stink about it instead of implementing a fallback strategy.

Long term retention is built on brand trust and usability, then ensh*ttification happens.

Precisely, the industry needs to empower the engineers to shift left and integrate security as a part of the SDLC. this is the only way to provide continuous assurance in the age of AI.

No need for this kind of attitude here. If you can extract more value out of a customer using more data points, wouldn't you? Or will you simply leave money on the table for someone else to take.

I wish. Check out colleagues.ai as the Chinese equivalent of the programme.

Tbh that's to be expected, the work machine is the company's property and there shouldn't be any expectation of privacy.

I work at a tech firm in India, and we are encouraged to create skills.md based on the traits of our colleagues, with the intention of reducing key personnel risk. A handful of engineers were let go as the result of a re-alignment, and their AI counterparts are actively maintaining their code.

I wonder if this is where they are going.

The proposed industry solution is to use agents to review PRs, as not to slow down the velocity of delivery...

My current workplace is going through a major "realignment" exercise to replace as many testers with agents as humanely possible, which proved to be a challenge when the existing process is not well documented.

It might not be a bad thing if we have an Internet for humans, and a segmented Internet for AI.

What an incredibly diverse and inclusive UI design. I often find that Indian mythologies tend to be overshadowed, but with the advent of AI generated art and media there's been a resurgence of Indian-centric stories.

Keep up the good work!

Can you elaborate on it? I've only noticed more GitHub features post Microsoft acquisition.

GitHub Actions and Copilot integration are pretty much a staple at my workplace.

Why would it be satire? I thought that's a pretty stranded Agentic workflows.

My current workplace follows a similar workflow. We have a repository full of agent.md files for different roles and associated personas.

E.g. For project managers, you might have a feature focused one, a delivery driven one, and one that aims to minimise scope/technology creep.

That would be the dream, it has been stated by many AI leaders that AI is the key to UBI, democratising that capability will prevent specific monopolies having a stranglehold on our future.

Is that the one not too far from the statue of Tesla donated by the Serbian government? I vaguely remember visiting it a good few years ago...

Exactly, you align your business objectives with the vision of your managers and the industry trend.

Right now it appears that most industry leaders have fully committed to AI. It would be foolish (career wise) to speak openly otherwise.

Thanks so much for sharing!

I'm interested to see how MCP and the development in AI will impact the CTF scene in the future.

Where abouts in NZ are you? I'm currently based in Wellington and my Venus fly traps, sundew, and pitcher plants seem to be doing quite well on the windowsill.

I've noticed a similar trend on YouTube and Bandcamp too. Sadly, I personally know a few people who are engaged in those activities in my business school class.

The usage of generative AI has significantly lowered the barrier to entry for the creative industry, leading to an influx of AI generated products that are easily consumable and can be used to generate revenue.

Until the platforms begin to regulate AI art, which I don't see why they would, we can expect to see more of them in the near future.

With sufficient education, awareness, and incentives. I don't see why not.

There's already a massive shift in the hospitality industry with paper straws and bio-decompositable cutlery, saving the world from a tremendous amount of plastic.

It really depends on the level of seniority.

If you are applying for a junior role, I don't know much about Europe, but in India the defence and security sector often have internship programmes for university students.

Alternatively, same as all other jobs, keep your eye open and make sure your CV and cover letter is catered towards the job.

You don't need to be a misanthrope to work in defence and security. Despite the bad PR, it's comforting knowing that your work is making the world a safer place.

Seconded, there's no tangible nor financial benefit to him for releasing the information to the world. Also: how would publishing the data "make the world a better place"?

At the same time it'll incur a non trivial amount of reputational and professional risk.

I often draw the line between adventure/action-rpg (Zelda, Diablo, etc.) with traditional RPG based on the reliance of in-game character skills vs player skills.

In a traditional RPG, a character with sufficient stats are bound to succeed more often, whereas in an action game it really depends on the skill of the player.

I'm not trolling, and I'm sorry if it came off that way. As someone not living in the states, I simply had more faith in the US Justice system compared to say, Russia.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone.

Potentially because it is owned by a Chinese firm. To my knowledge, China has a very diverse and relaxed law around data privacy.

It has been established that this is a standard pattern for most image processing services to prevent abuse though...

I completely understand that it might not be for you, but in business school we were taught that engagement metrics is key to growth, and account creation is a good indicator of engagement.

Te Reo is often considered a taonga due to its value in the heritage and identity of the Māori people of New Zealand.

Te Reo names are often gifted by Iwis or individuals with sufficient Mana. As a Tangata Whenua Inia, I was strongly recommended to avoid using Te Reo names in business due to cultural reasons.

Even if they copied OP's code, depending on the FOSS license it might not be illegal.

As someone who grew up in India, this practice is actually quite common and not exactly frowned up. When you have multiple products that perform similar functions, whoever can sell them the best will gain market dominance.

OP did not pursue the monetization path chosen by his competitor and lost out only on potential income, this might be a good lesson in entrepreneurship and IP management.

Having clear requirements, good communications with key stakeholders and empower the enginees.
