Issue 268: Secure coding

As you read this, your humble narrator will be at the HumanX conference talking to leaders in the world of AI. Whether we like it or not, AI is becoming a key part of the technological landscape. This week, we feature two conversations with people building real AI solutions: optimizing models for edge devices and using specialty models for translation and beyond. We do have other non-AI material for you. The podcast welcomed a blog contributor for a conversation on secure coding, what it takes to secure a Canadian election, and the legal ramifications of being a lousy CISO. Plus, our Teams product has shiny new features and we're excited to tell you about them. Never fear my intrepid knowledge explorers, there are plenty of goodies from the Stack Exchange network and beyond! Is the Earth dodging the Moon? Can you learn HTML and CSS from a game? Can a catch-all email domain be abused by bad actors? Can SQLite be abused to handle concurrency? And more.

Issue 267: Q&A and beyond

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we are on the cusp of Spring, so we're thinking about the growth and change coming in the future. The weather is getting slightly warmer, brave flowers are budding, and the snow is melting. For Stack Overflow, we're thinking about how we can grow and change to keep our public community vibrant in the face of an AI present. To that end, we had a Q&A with some of our leadership team over YouTube. If you missed it, we've got a quick recap that touches on all the possibilities that we're mulling over. Of course, we're also talking about AI: how testing can benefit and the variations of LoRA. And if you want to share your views on AI instead of reading and hearing ours, we're running a survey on using open-source AI. We also have a collection of curated curiosities for you, surfaced by the Stack Overflow team and Cassidy Williams. If you want to build a pipe organ, get your tiny gecko friend honest work (or poach them from their current position), or configure Git the way core Git developers do, we've got you covered.

Issue 265: Beware the data doom loop

This week: keeping software development both fast and safe, breathing something other than air, and how your morning coffee changes your brain.

Issue 264: 25,000 images per second

This week: we're gearing up for an AMA with our CEO, growing paranoid over our Linux kernel's knowledge of Microsoft tech, and celebrating the return of the pebble.
