Marty Meehan. Historically, the public sector has focused on a narrow set of cyber threats. Espionage and insider threat were among the primary focus areas given limited public-facing services and air-gapped infrastructure. However, as recent high-profile breaches have illustrated, the infrastructure at federal agencies today is far more integrated than ever before, and transparency initiatives have increased the amount of public-facing data and services.

If you’ve spent your fair share of time developing web front-ends, you know that no amount of libraries and plugins are sufficient enough to make the development experience pleasant. Unpredictable event chains, complex data binding, and lack of structured data modeling only makes things worse. Elm, a programming language built for front-end development, cuts to the root of all these problems and solves them there.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Or, how valuable would it be to know what they have done in the recent past, especially if you believed they were involved in some criminal activity? Who they were talking to, or what they said. If you could recreate the events and determine the timeline of activity, information like this could help you in solving plenty of mysteries.

The explanation for this paradox lies in software’s interaction with humans. While you probably can't build a fully automated system, there's a lot you can do to save time and money. In this post, Entrepreneur Jack Kinsella explains what you can do to streamline administration, thus saving valuable time and making your projects more profitable.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital.

The post on “Beware of Developers Who Do Negative Work” was both enjoyed by many and highly criticized by many. I’m usually fine with criticism, but one point really stung. A lot of the criticism denounced the idea that junior developers do negative work. They need mentoring and coaching, not to be frightened and have their insecurities targeted by callous bloggers such as myself.

The vision for every entrepreneur is to eventually figure out how to scale to the point where the day to day business isn’t reliant on the owner every minute of every day. For many, this objective never comes to fruition as the business is structured in a way where the business owner is consumed and literally devoured by the entity. The business owner becomes an employee in reality and the business never grows beyond what that business owner is able to accomplish with their own two hands.
