The NPM (Node Package Manager) registry suffers from a security lapse called "manifest confusion," which undermines the trustworthiness of packages and makes it possible for attackers to hide malware in dependencies or perform malicious script execution during installation. You had me at "NPM ecosystem at risk"
"Both the manifest data submitted to NPM when publishing a package and the package.json contain information about the package name, version, and other metadata, such as scripts used in deployment, build dependencies, etc.
The two are submitted separately to the npm registry, and the platform does not validate if they match, so their data could differ, and no one would know unless they scrutinize their contents." <-- Brilliant design strategy!

These genAIs are already helping professional software developers code faster and more effectively by handling much of the programming grunt work. What if you like the drudgery?

The thing is, 95% of the coding I do is very specialized and specific. Granted, when I asked it to create the REST API to interface to a particular credit card processor, it did a great job, but that's the 5% code I write.
Maybe I'm just not phrasing the question with sufficient detail, but if I phrase it with sufficient detail, I've pretty much written in natural language the code I will be writing in the programming language.

He used to have endless rounds of arguments in The Lounge. About how his language (Pla*n Engl*sh <- camouflaged to prevent him appearing) was better than all other languages, about how floats are evil incarnate, and a few others I'm blanking on. Worse than that other fellow (who also mercifully has moved on) for being a one-topic arguer.
