"It's OK that X isn't done securely because we do Y and Z checks too" is not a reassuring statement.
What you actually are saying is: "I knew this was insecure and did it anyway" — that tells me all I need to know.
The last time someone said that to me, you'll never guess what I found when I inspected Y & Z.
Spoilers: My next task was to teach a medium-sized company how to handle a #security incident.

Ways I have uncovered critical show-stopping #security flaws:
1. Someone in marketing off-handedly mentioned something odd in their open source install of our software.
2. I ran standup for new team and heard a dev describe a feature I wasn't familiar with, so I asked 1 question.
3. I skimmed the code of an app we'd acquired before I started, but no one had inspected, because I had a feeling.
4. Someone in support noticed a user with an odd name and mentioned it in Slack.

I've been employed as a developer by 4 companies that sold software.
In ALL, I discovered at least one potentially-company-ending #security flaw.
I also led #incident responses to active exploits in 3/4 that successfully contained breeches without catastrophic impacts.
I want to believe this is all because I'm very good at my job.
What I actually believe is that the bar for security knowledge & critical thinking is on the ground and I trip over it frequently by talking to people outside dev.

Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day
Finished this 1-season #anime series on Friday night. It's about a group of kids, 1 of whom died after an accidental fall in grade school, causing them to drift apart & cope independently.
Now in high school, the friend's spirit suddenly appears to the group's former "leader" (only), causing them to reconnect and reexamine what happened that day, finally confronting their grief.
Absolutely sobbed at the finale, 10/10, no notes.

What % of professional developers using version control don't really understand or actively use git staging?
I think it's 80%, maybe more.

I'm still out here fretting about my outdated use of arrays in #PHP while companies tell their devs to stop reading code.

For me, what eats the most time in Web development is uncertainty about how a particular thing behaves. Even *if* working as documented, edge cases abound.
But to go faster with #AI, I'm supposed to stop understanding how *anything* behaves.
OK.
The thing that takes the most time when grocery shopping is understanding what I'm consuming, where it came from, and how much it costs.
To go faster, I should throw whatever monopoly-owned processed shit is on sale into my cart.
Now I get it.
