However, Google has highlighted a few key points in the blog post. AI is Real – A staggering 89% of organizations are prioritizing the integration of AI into their applications, and 76% of technologists are already using AI in some part of their daily work.  Productivity gains confirmed: Developers using Gen AI report significant increases in flow, productivity, and job satisfaction.  For instance, a 25% increase in AI adoption is associated with a 2.1% increase in individual productivity. Organization benefits are tangible: Beyond individual gains, Dora found strong correlations between AI adoption and improvements in crucial organizational metrics. A 25% increase in AI adoption is associated with increases in document quality, code quality, code review speeds and approval speeds.  If you are looking to utilize AI in your development organization, they provide five practical approaches for both leaders and practitioners. Have transparent communications Empower developers with learning and experimentation Establish clear policies Rethink performance metrics Embrace fast feedback loops 045:06 Ryan – “Those are really good approaches, but really difficult to implement in practice.

There’s some doubt… basically they said that what they showed, which is a microscopic H-shaped aluminum wire on top of indium arsenide – a superconductor at ultra-cold temperatures, and the devices are designed to harness majoranas, previously undiscovered quasi-particles that are essential for topological qubits to work, and the goals for majoranas to appear at the four tips of the H-shaped wire emerging from reflective-behavior electrons, and these majorans in theory could be used to perform quantum computing that are resistant to information loss, but no proof, no evidence, and they think Microsoft’s full of it.” General News  04:12 Google + Wiz: Strengthening Multicloud Security Google has announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Wiz.

Redhat and Hashicorp officially support the Red Hat Ansible Provider for Terraform, making it easier to trigger Ansible from Terraform. Evolving Terraform provisioners to support a more comprehensive set of lifecycle integrations. Improved mechanisms to invoke Ansible Playbooks outside of the resource provisioning lifecycle Customers – not surprisingly – regularly integrate Vault and Openshift, and they have identified dozens of connection points that can add value, including: Vault Secrets Operator for OpenShift Etcd data encryption  Argo CI/CD Istio Certificate issuance 01:48 Justin – “That's a lot of promise for Ansible there, that I'm not sure it completely lives up to…” 07:09

Is this like a semi-retirement?  General News 01:44 TSA silent on CrowdStrike's claim Delta skipped required security update Delta isn't backing down with CrowdStrike, and in a court filing said CrowdStrike should be on the hook for the entire $500M in losses, partly because CrowdStrike has admitted that it should have done more testing and staggered deployments to catch bugs.  Delta further alleges that CrowdStrike postured as a certified best-in-class security provider who “never cuts corners,” while secretly designing its software to bypass Microsoft security certifications to make changes at the core of Delta's computer systems without Delta's knowledge.  Delta says they would never have agreed to such a dangerous process if it had been disclosed.  In its testimony to Congress, CrowdStrike said that they follow standard protocols, and that they are protecting against threats as they evolve. CrowdStrike is also accusing Delta of failing to follow laws, including best practices established by the TSA. According to CrowdStrike, most customers were up within a day of the issue – while Delta took 5 days.  Crowdstrike alleges that Delta's negligence caused this in following the TSA requirements designed to ensure that no major airline ever experiences prolonged system outages.  CrowdStrike realized Delta failed to follow the requirements when its efforts to help remediate the issue revealed alleged technological shortcomings and failures to follow security best practices, including outdated IT systems, issues in Delta's AD environment and thousands of compromised passwords. Delta threatened to sue Microsoft as well as CrowdStrike, but has only named CrowdStrike to date in the lawsuits.  3:48 Ryan – “It’s a tool that needs to evolve very quickly to emerging threats.

As well as it renegotiated a $140M line of credit that aimed to help inflection finance its operations and pay for the MS services.  03:22 Justin – “…that explains the mystery that we talked about last week for those who were paying attention.” General News  05:17 Redis switches licenses, acquires Speedb to go beyond its core in-memory database  Redis, one of the popular in-memory data stores, is switching away from its Open Source Three-Clause BSD license.  Instead it is adopting a dual licensing model called the Redis Source Available License (RSALv2) and Server Side Public Licensing (SSPLv1).   Under the new license, cloud service providers hosting Redis will need to enter into a commercial agreement with Redis. The first company to do so was Microsoft.  Redis also announced the acquisition of Speedb (speedy-bee) to take it beyond the in memory space.  This isn't the first time that Redis has changed the licensing model.  In 2018 and 2019, it changed the way it licensed Redis Models under the Redis Source Available License v1.

Claude 3, and its family of models, includes Claude 3 Haiku, Sonnet and Opus, with Opus being the most powerful.   All show “increased capabilities” in analysis and forecasting, Anthropic claims, as well enhanced performance on specific benchmarks versus models like GPT-4 (but not GPT-4 Turbo) and Googles Gemini 1.0 Ultra (but not Gemini 1.5 Pro) Claude 3 is Anthropics first multi-modal model. In a step better than rivals, Claude can analyze multiple images in a single request (up to 20). This allows it to do compare and contrast operations However, there are limits to its image capabilities. It’s not allowed to identify people.   They admit it is also prone to mistakes on low-quality images under 200 pixels, and struggles with tasks involving spatial reasoning and object counting.   05:42 Justin – “Overall, this looks like not a bad model. I do see a little bit of chatter today actually. Some people say it’s not quite as good in some areas, but it’s pretty good in others. And it is not connected to the internet, this model. So it is dated only through August of 2023. So anything that happened after that, like the Israeli Hamas conflicts, it doesn’t know anything about those. So just be aware.” 06:08 Matthew – “You know, it’s actually interesting now. There’s so many models out there. You know, you have to start to look at what makes sense for your data and what you need, along with also price. You know, I look too closely at what the price is, but you might be able to get away

Digital Ocean, under their new CEO Paddy Srinivasan reported earnings of 44 centers per share, well ahead of Wall Street’s target of 37 cents per share.  Revenue growth was a little sluggish at 11% more than a year earlier, but the companies 181 million in reported sales still beat analysts expectations.  Full year revenue was 693M for the year.  We’re really glad to see the business is still going, and instead of going back on-premise, we think it’s a viable option for many workloads so don't sleep on them. 02:46  Ryan – “I like that, you know, while they are very focused on, you know, traditional compute workloads, you can still see them. Dip in their toes into managed services and, and, um, their interaction with the community and documentation of how to do things. I think it’s really impactful.” 03:34 VMware moves to quell concern over rapid series of recent license changes   As we have reported multiple times on the VMWARE shellacking they are doing to the customers, Vmware has released a blog post trying to convince you that they’re **not** screwing you.  Broadcom has realigned operations around VMWare Cloud Foundation private cloud portfolio and data center-focused VMWare Vsphere suite, and no longer sells discrete products such as vSphere hypervisor, vSAN virtual storage and NSX network storage virtualization software.   They also are eliminating perpetual licensing in favor of subscription-only pricing, with VCF users getting vSAN, NSX and the Aria Management and orchestration components bundled whether you want them or not.  Broadcom says this is about focusing on best-of-breed silos, and not disparate products without an integrated experience.
