Curious why you have to have permission to share something done on your own time... certainly that is only related to programming but if you do your own thing on your own hardware on your own time how do they have any say in what you do or don't do?
Not asking to be pokey, genuinely curious because I have heard similar from a consistent couple camps... what stack you develop in and what VCS do you prefer?
Ironically, Git is my preferred VCS. I have used Perforce Helix, Mercurial, and SVN. It is the best of the worst. I don't think anyone in the space has made a truly great product.
Painting with a broad brush I feel like the people who still don't like git either worked with mercurial and liked it more, want to be sort of hipster or counter culture and use fossil, or work in microsoft shops or game dev shops.
Sample size is small but it's been consistent for me over the past 20 years.
I like p4/helix for the locking when working on something like a game where you need assets to be handled more carefully since there's a lot of binary floating around but despise the company and the sales / licensing games. I had a rep just ignore me completely when I emailed wanting to cancel and ended up having to go find the director of the sales org on linkedin and get him involved (and it was cancelled within 24 hours).
Ran this last night and it correctly identified a sql injection that could allow cross tenant data access via snowflake. It burnt A LOT of tokens to get there.
Like others I suspect this is exactly what they are going to paywall with product features going forward.
And I too intended to build one to server my specific ops needs and satisfy my taste for what information should be presented instead of how AWS organizes thing.
Hello! I am in the same boat. Got a kid under 10 too. But I have no regrets yet. The time off was priceless and we never know what tomorrow will hold. My dad was dead when I was 11 so I never planned on playing it safe to try to retire early or even on time.
I am very visual and spatial. The first investment I make in my home or even visiting somewhere for more than 3-4 days where I will need to work without coworking is buying a whiteboard.
So now I'm here with all these tools trying to use a remarkable tablet to draw and show the AI what I'm thinking. It's just not fulfilling. Cleaning toilets isn't either. Lots of jobs have felt like a full on race to software factory and it's clear we're going there with AI and the "cognitive debt" from half (or less) activated brains driving the code generation is going to be massive.
I can't comment on cleaning toilets as a job (luckily I don't have to do that), but cleaning at home does provide a sense of accomplishment similar to solving a coding task elegantly and cleanly, while uninvolved AI-assisted coding is more like up and down voting or liking posts in algo feeds. Not fully like that of course, but it's a step towards that kind of "I like this part, I don't like that part" feedback-giving that can leave me depleted/drained. Coding before AI was more like when you feel one with the machine, like when you drive your car on autopilot, and with AI it's like sitting in the passenger seat like a driving instructor saying how to go about the driving. You do t quite know what it will answer, maybe it will push back on your idea when unnecessary and then I have to expend effort in arguing in text in a chatbox with a machine, or it goes forward too easily without asking clarifying questions or pushing back when what I ask collides with previous things. Many programmers get depleted in meetings and in language-based argumentation and charge up with the more puzzlesolving-like flow state, but this AI wrangling is often more like team meetings.
Seems the IOT / embedded device constraint is what is driving the query feature. You don't have to go scan all of the file and depending on where it is running having the rollup functionality could be a big help
