META HAS FINALLY LAUNCHED ITS =
CHATGPT COMPETITOR (3 MINUTE READ) [9]=20

Meta has launched Meta AI, a =
standalone AI app built on the company's
latest Llama 4 model. Its stando=
ut feature is the Discover feed, which
lets users see how their connectio=

control over what gets shared, but opting=
out of having user data
scraped to train Meta's AI is nearly impossible.=
The app is designed
to pair with Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses - users ca=

Waymo and Toyota have announced a preliminary partnership to explore

partnershi=
p could result in Waymo incorporating Toyota's vehicles into
its ride-hai=

automakers, but m=

companies producing modifi=

While most bots are just trying to discover new co=

some created to spam, scrape content, or hack - one way =
to deal with
these bots is by using zip bombs. A zip bomb is a relatively=
small

overwhelm a machine. This post walks readers through how to create a
zip =
bomb to prevent malicious bots from accessing their servers. While
zip bo=

enough for pro=

There are many stories about companies replacing human e=

discuss
the current industry landscape. While there is a lot of hype abo=

much of it is built on a misunderstanding of what real engineering=

work is. Most of an engineer's time is spent thinking and talking
abou=
t the problem and solutions, not coding. The hard part of software

people, understanding what they really want or need, and

There are many stories about companies = replacing human engineers with AI. This thread contains responses from real=
engineers that discuss the current industry landscape. While there is a lo=
t of hype about AI, much of it is built on a misunderstanding of what real = engineering work is. Most of an engineer's time is spent thinking and talki=
ng about the problem and solutions, not coding. The hard part of software e= ngineering isn't making new code - a large portion of the work is dealing w= ith people, understanding what they really want or need, and helping them u= nderstand it.
