I noticed a strong focus on developer productivity and security this week. From GitLab’s new agent commands to STRIDE threat modeling workshops, teams are looking for ways to automate safely. The security articles also highlighted real-world threats, like North Korean fake enterprises targeting engineers, which adds urgency to adopting stronger authentication like MFA. On the hardware side, it was fascinating to see drones flying for 30 hours on hydrogen and humanoid waiters in Shanghai. It feels like a month where software automation and physical robotics are both making headlines.
