When we announce over 20 new #curl CVEs on October 14, you will learn that every single one of them were found by clever humans using harnesses powered by AI models. Every. Single. One. The holy trinity of modern vulnerability research.

Honestly, so many "make me database to manage X" products could easily be replaced by @filamentphp.com with a bit of AI usage. #PHP #Codex

OMG @danharrin.com I'm using Codex 5.6 Luna with LOW reasoning and it is a BEAST at building @filamentphp.com dashboards with Laravel Boost! 🫨 I'm on the OpenAI Plus plan and after an hour I have 82% left. Only needed to move up to Terra to get the main left-hand navigation replace!

Going to be an interesting open to the oil markets tomorrow. 5-6 weeks to to repair the pipeline - although that estimates seems oddly vague.

I have been properly working on side-project with @laravel.com, Codex and @zed.dev - and it's honestly breathtaking how much you can do in a small space of time. As for limits, with the Laravel skills and clear guidance, I'm finding Luna is more than enough to produce excellent results.

I think it's fair to say that without massive cuts and perhaps three years of above average snow pack, the Colorado River basin is heading straight for collapse. A poor winter snow pack and another hot summer would make it hard to recover at all.

Now they are attempting to charge for their "journalism" about something new on the menu at Greggs or the new cheap duvet at Dunelm I'm really hoping their business dies. I've already found Birmingham Now as a source of local news, and I'm no longer visiting their website.

Improving the quality of grass has become a recent interest. Alas, Birmingham (England, not Alabama) and the rest of the UK is enduring once of its worst droughts in living memory. Over forty days with out noticeable rain and temps of 30C/86F+ at least half of those days. My lawn will recover...

For the amount of times I use Office these days I quite inclined to look at alternatives before my next subscription renewal. I do a household budget in Excel once a month and might write a letter once in a blue moon, why would I want to pay for CoPilot @microsoft.com ?
