Judgment and creativity are all you need.
When I joined Imprint a little less than a year ago, our deploys were manual, requiring close human attention to complete. Our database migrations were run manually, too. Developing good software is very possible in those circumstances, but it takes a remarkable attention to detail to do it. It was also possible to develop good software using Subversion and developing by ssh’ing into a remote server to edit PHP files, but the goal is making things easy rather than possible.

Our marketing team is moving to GitHub | Anna Evans
Our marketing team is moving to GitHub. A few months ago GitHub was still an enigma to me... the type of software speak that I heard often but also consistently ignored. But the reality of the AI setup I have built for us over the last six months is that our marketing infrastructure is now looking more and more like - well proper infrastructure. We run over a dozen AI employees. We have tens of skills and dozens of context files that tell our AI how we write, who our customers are, and what "good" looks like. We have tools, and commands and automations that help us do our work. All the files need to be accessible by humans as well as Claude Code. We have kept all of it on Google Drive till now because that is where everything lived historically. But the problems have started coming through. No version history, no way to review changes. Now a team of 7 who consistently need access. That's exactly the problem software teams solved decades ago. So we have started moving it. First with our customer comms project, soon our entire marketing stack. Version history on every AI employee. Pull requests when someone changes a workflow. Branches for testing new approaches without breaking what works. The irony isn't lost on me. I was scared of code even a year ago. Now I'm teaching my teammates Git 🤔 . Marketing operations are starting to look more and more like engineering operations now... Configs. Dependencies. Versioning. Collaboration on shared infrastructure. If your marketing team runs AI workflows seriously, I think you'll end up here too. Not because it's trendy. Because nothing else handles the complexity well enough. | 181 comments on LinkedIn

Kali & LLM: Completely local with Ollama & 5ire | Kali Linux Blog
We are extending our LLM-driven Kali series, where natural language replaces manual command input. This time however, we are doing everything locally and offline. We are using our own hardware and not relying on any 3rd party services/SaaS.

Dependency tracking is hard
Dependency tracking is hard
curl and libcurl are written in C. Rather low level components present in many software systems. They are typically not part of any ecosystem at all. They're just a tool and a library. In lots of places on the web when you mention an Open Source project, you will also get the option to mention … Continue reading Dependency tracking is hard →

Hackerbot-Claw: Adversarial Agent Targets Top GitHub Repos
Hackerbot-Claw: Adversarial Agent Targets Top GitHub Repos
Pillar Security researchers analyzed the hackerbot-claw campaign, we named “Chaos Agent” - the first publicly documented campaign where an AI agent, operating on natural-language instructions, conducted an end-to-end attack against production open-source infrastructure.Within 37 hours, hackerbot-claw identified vulnerable open-source projects, crafted targeted exploits, compromised CI/CD pipelines, and published a malicious extension that turned developers' own AI coding tools into credential-stealing accomplices.
