@webstorm.jetbrains.com is really taking that "Drive to Develop" motto to heart.

We have AI assistant Glean integrated into the Slack, and it answered privately to her: "today's siren is just a scheduled test and you do not need to leave your workplace". It was not a test or a drill, it was a real fire alarm. Someday, AI will kill us.

Things I do that make zero sense, yet, here we are: - Put on glasses to listen to announcement on trains/airplane gates - Turn down music when I need to read signage

“Cloud native” has become the excuse for wiring your entire system to one provider and calling it modern. New Simplicity-First essay: “Stop Calling It ‘Cloud Native’ When It’s Just Vendor Lock-In with Extra Steps.” Why your stack is cloud captive, not cloud agnostic.
