Coding agents can now edit files and run commands, so where does IDE security start?

We rolled out AI assistants to about 120 engineers and the policy is two paragraphs long. The assistants can read the repo and write files and some of them shell out. Our appsec review covered the model vendor and nothing about what the agent does locally. Im trying to work out where the control points even are, since the laptop is now executing code nobody reviewed. Secrets in env files are the part keeping me up. How are people scoping this?

social media automation platform that does more than queue posts, need recycling and rules per client

I run social for 3 product lines inside one company and the scheduling part is solved, any tool can queue a post. What eats my week is everything around it: recycling evergreen posts on a rotation, pausing a campaign on every network at once when the news goes sideways, and routing comments to the right person.

The ones I've been reading docs for are Vista Social, Metricool, Publer and Sendible. What automates the work around the post rather than just the post.

Second date in Greenpoint or Williamsburg, somewhere we can make something?

Second date is this Saturday and all my NYC date ideas so far are bars. I'd like it to not be another bar. She mentioned she's crafty, I'm very much not, and I'd like to not embarrass myself.

North Brooklyn preferably since we both live nearby. Something beginner friendly where they hand you the stuff and tell you what to do.

classbento has loads in north Brooklyn marked beginner friendly, which is promising. coursehorse has some as well. Any personal recs for one that's great for a total newbie?

Zoe Financial vs Advisor Jetpack reviews for an RIA vs paid marketing

The line item is fixed for the year and the internal argument is outsourced setting versus running more paid. Nobody in the room has run the setting side before. The names in front of us are Advisor Jetpack, Zoe Financial and WealthReach. Where I am stuck is whether conversion rate selectivity survives contact with a quota. I would like to hear from anyone who has run both channels in the same year.

Aria Hotel Sunday Buffet at Rhapsody. Great date night!

So Last Night I ate at Rhapsody the buffet that goes for around 1,700 (with service charge)

Aesthetically it’s really more upscale and intimate and hindi talaga crowded unlike say Vikings or Buffet 101.

People dress up here and they have a live trio band playing lounge music and the servers were very welcoming.

Food wise the selection was decently wide and each dish was good, temperature wise some dishes were already cold when I got to them.

Their charcuterie section was very bare and a bit disappointing, having cheddar and pecorino as their only cheeses and their cold cuts weren’t that good. Though it seems that Davao isnt really into charcuterie given the lack of demand as seen in other buffets din.

Sashimi and Sushi:
Their Tuna and Salmon were really fresh, walang langsa and that was impressive. Sadly though, the way the fish was cut wasn’t that good. The salmon and tuna were falling apart as if it was mangled by a dull knife.

their deviled eggs they were super chalky

But their hummus was really good, i got a second serving of that.

Grill Section:
You have the option to grill some fish and my partner didn’t finish her tuna as it was dry

Pizza and Pasta:
Pizza was okay, nothing great and the lasagna was decent din (it was more of an Italian lasagna rather than a Filipino sweeter one)

I have no idea why they decided to serve gnocchi buffet style as this became very gummy.

Moussaka was my favorite out of all their tomato based dishes

Dimsum: tasted like any other buffet dimsum

Mains: their mains were the highlight of the night for sure. Their chicken ballottine was a bit dry but the flavor was great.

Their lechon was more of a lechon belly roll decorated with the head of a lechon and didnt have any tanglad flavor but the skin was really crispy and the pork itself was juicy.

Their shortplate was really flavorful and I loved their peppercorn sauce.

The slow roasted beef was also tender and succulent with a rich sauce that just coated the mouth.

Their beef wellington is done the right way, it has a crepe layer and all in all it was cooked perfectly. Their mushroom duxelle has tons of umami and the meat is tender. You have a choice between a gravy and a chimichurri but I didnt taste the herbiness that shout come from the chimi.

Desserts were decent and surprisingly their choux pastry desserts were really good.

Important to note here:

Drinks like coke are separately billed so dont think its unlimited unlike other buffets. You can also buy other desserts. But kind of feels like a kick to the balls as the buffet already costs so much haha

All things considered, I’d eat here again. Its a great date night place and you’d be spending around the same price for a good steak meal anywhere else in the city.

For me:
Appetizers are 6/10
Mains are an 8/10
Desserts are 7/10
Ambiance is 10/10

Price to Value for me is 7.8/10

Has anyone tried asking kids to title their art instead of asking what it is?

Someone suggested this to me recently and I've started doing it because I was tired of accidentally offending kids by asking what is it.

Instead I ask what the picture would be called if it was hanging in a museum. The answers are so much better. One drawing I couldn't identify at all was titled Dad Going to the Store But There Are Bees. Once I knew that, honestly, I could see it.

Has anyone else tried this? I'm thinking I should start writing the titles on the back because they're half the reason I want to keep the drawings.

eleven brands in one calendar and i still cannot see a week at a glance

Eleven client accounts, four platforms each, and the calendar view collapses into noise the moment I turn more than two brands on.

Filtering by brand works and then I lose the cross client view I need for planning. Vista Social and Later handle the multi brand calendar very differently.

what does everyone managing this many accounts look at each morning.

Does showing up in AI answers move anything downstream or is it a vanity number?

our marketing team is proud of a visibility score and nobody on my side can connect it to renewals or pipeline. i want to believe it matters, i just cant show it yet.

the framing that has landed internally is discoverability. if buyers ask an assistant for options in your category and you are absent, that is a commercial problem you can measure.

if your team has tied this to something real i want to know what

laid off in july with a package that ends in February, betting all of it on backend

5 months of runway and one attempt at this before I take whatever is available. Backend is where the roles near me are. What I do not know is whether five months is enough to be employable or whether I am about to spend the runway learning things in the wrong order. Shortlist so far is Codecademy, Boot.dev and Zero To Mastery, mostly on whether they order the material for you rather than hand you a catalog. Thoughts?

which anthropic claude courses leave you with something you can put in a repo?

My company is fine paying for training but the last two things i sat through left me with a pdf certificate and nothing else. I want to finish with a repo i can point at.

Shortlist so far is Udacity AI Engineering with Claude, DeepLearning.AI short courses, Pluralsight paths and the free Anthropic Academy tracks. mainly care about whether the projects are yours or whether you clone a starter and fill in three functions.

The project briefs are where I would expect the difference to show and nobody ever writes about them.

Got a P0128 code. How important is it?

I have a 2012 Nissan Altima with about 120,000 miles and the P0128 code came up a couple of days ago. The car seems to be driving normally and I havent noticed anything unusual with the temperature gauge. But the check engine light has stayed on. Im seeing a few possible causes mentioned, including the thermostat, low coolant, the coolant temperature sensor and the cooling fan. Im not very experienced beyond basic maintenance, so I do not want to start replacing parts without knowing what is causing the problem. How serious is P0128 and what should I check first?

Charlie Health alternatives that are less intensive than IOP?

A pediatrician suggested looking at Charlie Health for a 16 year old, and reading through it, it may be more than what is needed here. It is an intensive outpatient program, multiple sessions a week in a group format. That is a serious commitment for a kid who is struggling but still going to school and still seeing her friends.

Not trying to minimise what is going on with her. If that level were needed I would do it tomorrow. But there is a big gap between forty five minutes once a week and a full IOP, and almost everything that turns up is at one end or the other.

What would actually fit is weekly therapy with someone who works with teenagers, and a prescriber in the same place if it comes to that, so nobody is guessing. Emora Health looks set up that way, Brightline as well.

For parents who have been at this decision point, how did you tell which side of it you were on?

Best large-scale voice AI tool for businesses handling thousands of calls each week?

My team is starting to plan next year's CS/CX roadmap and we want to prioritize modernizing our phone experience. We handle thousands of inbound calls weekly, and our IVR technically works, but customers are always angry after using it and our teams lose too much time routing calls manually. Looking for large-scale voice AI recommendations from teams that have deployed it and found it reliable.

do you think reading error messages and stack traces should be explicitly taught in intro cs courses?

third semester TAing the intro sequence and the pattern has stopped surprising me. recursion, pointers, and reading an error without panicking. that is the whole list.

recursion i understand. the error one bothers me, because nobody teaches it anywhere in the curriculum. a student sees a stack trace and their eyes slide off it like it is written in another alphabet. a solid half of my office hours is me reading the trace out loud until they notice it told them the answer on line two.

if anyone handed me the syllabus there would be a week on reading errors before we touched data structures. do you think this should be taught explicitly in intro cs courses?

leaving this here mostly so the incoming cohort finds it in November when things fall apart.

best typescript course for someone who writes javascript professionally and keeps faking types

Three years writing javascript at work. We migrated a service to typescript in the spring and my strategy since then has been annotating everything as any and moving on with my life. It compiles. Nobody has said anything. I am aware this makes the migration pointless.

What I want isnt an intro course. I know what a type is. I want the part covering generics, utility types and the moment where the compiler is telling you something true that you do not understand yet.

Open in tabs at the moment: Boot.dev, Total TypeScript and Type Challenges. Any insight?

My dad's minor fall turned into a three week unpaid second job

Hi everyone! I'm new to this world. My dad is only in his early seventies, and up until two weeks ago has been in perfect shape. But a minor fall he took has kind of changed everything.

Since it happened, I've been driving myself crazy trying to find all his documents like insurance info, prescriptions, power of attorney docs, the works. It's a total nightmare and I am wondering if anyone has any solutions for this kind of thing, because if I have to do it every time something goes wrong I'm going to wind up in the hospital myself

Anyone comparing Cyberhaven or Cyera to protect agentic AI?

Had an agent last month pull a customer contract into a summary doc and drop it into a shared workspace nobody on that team should have had access to.

Nothing malicious, it just did what it was told without anyone thinking about where the data would end up. That is when we realized we had zero visibility into what our agents were touching. Cyera was already on our shortlist for DSPM. Then Cyberhaven kept coming up too, more focused on protecting data once it is moving through AI workflows.

If you have used either one, how did it hold up once agents were doing real work?

Online depression treatment when getting to appointments is half the problem

The whole act of getting to my therapist makes it hard to even want to go in the first place. My appointments are across town and having to work my schedule around that just for my Wellbutrin to be renewed is a headache.

I also get anxiety sitting in an office and answering questions and end up rescheduling my appointment over and over. Maybe I am being ridiculous, but removing that friction sounds genuinely useful.

I am curious as to whether online care may be the right choice for me. I’ve looked at providers like Blossom Health and Talkiatry but I am having a hard time pinning down who I should make an appointment with. Any opinions?
