The conversation delves into various aspects of AppSec, DevSecOps, and the broader scope of securing both web and mobile applications, as well as the cloud and container environments that underpin them.One of the core topics Martin and Shanyuk explore is the pervasive influence of AI across different sectors. AI's application in coding, for instance, can significantly expedite the development process. However, as Sean Martin highlights, AI-generated code may lack the human intuition and contextual understanding crucial for error mitigation. This necessitates deeper and more intricate code reviews by human developers, reinforcing the symbiotic relationship between human expertise and AI efficiency.Shanyuk shares insightful anecdotes about the history and evolution of programming languages and how AI's rise is reminiscent of past technological shifts. He references the advancement from physical punch cards to assembly languages and human-readable code, drawing parallels to the current AI boom. Shanyuk stresses the importance of learning from past technological evolutions to better understand and leverage AI's full potential in modern development environments.The conversation also explores the practical applications of AI in fields beyond straightforward coding. Shanyuk discusses the evolution of automotive batteries from 12 volts to 48 volts, paralleling this shift with how AI can optimize various processes in different industries. This evolution demonstrates the potential of technology to drive efficiencies and reduce costs, emphasizing the need for ongoing innovation and adaptation.Martin further navigates the discussion towards platform engineering, contrasting its benefits of consistency and control with the precision and customization needed for specific tasks. The ongoing debate encapsulates the broader dialogue within the tech community about finding the right balance between standardization and flexibility. Shanyuk's perspective offers valuable insights into how industries can leverage AI and platform engineering principles to achieve both operational efficiency and specialized functionality.The episode concludes with forward-looking reflections on the future of AI-driven models and their potential to transcend the limitations of human language and traditional coding paradigms.

Technology is going so fast I can't see .... ahhhhhh .....'Energy: A Human History' by Richard Rhodes is a brief flash through 400 years of human technology and history. It begins in the 1600's and shows the transition from wood to coal/steam to oil/gas and to nuclear (and beyond). It is comprised of stories and told via the numerous inventions of innovators across the centries.I summarised the book as follows. "It's thick & lengthy but it doesn't feel like a tome. The overall theme felt relatively unbiased but I'm sure many of the stories were spruced up a bit. Unless you haven't read much history there's nothing astoundingly new, however there's nuggets of great info that can be useful to know later."I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world.

The AI Halo Effect & Investor FOMO The Money Wise guys are back with another jam-packed show! They begin with last week's numbers from Wall Street. The Dow was down 1.0%, the S&P 500 was up 0.3%, and the NASDAQ was up 2.5%. Year-To-Date the Dow is down slightly, while the S&P  500 and the NASDAQ are both up. The guys discuss the big performance difference between the Dow and NASDAQ - a more than 24% difference YTD - which is a reversal from what we saw last year. Of course, AI has been the steam engine for the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ this year, and the Money Wise guys once again discuss that impact, reviewing what we see when we look at the equally weighted index. They discuss the efficiencies AI will create across industries worldwide, whether investors are having FOMO, and how this emerging “AI Halo” compares to the Dot-Com bubble. Emerging Term to Know: AI Halo It's the first show where the Money Wise guys have used the emerging term “AI Halo” so let's dig into exactly what that means. A Halo Effect describes a scenario where investors show favoritism to stocks that are tied to a specific industry or product. The AI Halo implies that investors are currently favoring buying any company with even a pinky finger in AI. Are you experiencing the AI Halo in your own investment decisions? In the second hour, the Money Wise guys share the secrets of What Wall Street Won't Tell You. You don't want to miss the details!

Margot Lee Shetterly is a non-fiction writer. Her book, Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race, tells the story of African-American women mathematicians who helped provide NASA with the raw computing power it needed to dominate the heavens. After a career in investment banking and media, Margot moved to Mexico with her husband and founded Inside Mexico, an English-language magazine, while writing Hidden Figures. In addition to her work as an author, Margot is the founder of The Human Computer Project, an endeavor dedicated to recovering the names and accomplishments of all of the women who worked as computers, mathematicians, scientists and engineers at NACA and NASA from the 1930s through the 1980s.Today, you'll hear about Margot's journey in writing Hidden Figures. She describes her childhood in Hampton, Virginia, growing up surrounded by engineers and scientists and shares her experience witnessing the 9/11 attacks while living in New York City. She explains how she happened upon the book idea and how her awareness of the women in Hidden Figures—Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson—came to the fore. She discusses the importance of having an objective view from the outside and how living in Mexico allowed her to write Hidden Figures. You'll also gain insight on Margot's experiences writing Hidden Figures—from interviewing Katherine Johnson to getting the book published—and hear her advice for young people at the early stages of their careers.“The advances that allow us to get on an airplane—without thinking that it'll take off, fly, and land safely—happened because these women and their colleagues were doing the numbers for decades.” - Margot Lee ShetterlyThis week on Kathy Sullivan Explores:   •   Margot's background and life growing up in Hampton, Virginia   •   Her interest in business at a young age and path to investment banking   •   A brief history of NASA   •   Margot's interest in business at a young age and her path to investment banking   •   Her life in New York and her experience in foreign exchange trading, Meryll Lynch, and start-ups   •   Her adventures founding a magazine in Mexico with her husband   •   How living in Mexico allowed Margot the space to write Hidden Figures   •   What inspired the idea behind Hidden Figures and how Margot began writing the story   •   How interviewing mathematician Katherine Johnson led Margot to Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and the other Black computers at NASA's West Area   •   How long it took Margot to finish writing Hidden Figures   •   The two kinds of writers and why Margot is a combination of both   •   Historical accuracy of the film Hidden Figures and how similar it is to Margot's book   •   The process of creating a book proposal and why it's similar to forming a business plan   •   What Margot wanted to show through her book Hidden Figures   •   Margot's favorite travel destinations and travel bucket list   •   Her current book project and the joys of writing Hidden FiguresResources Mentioned:   •   NASA Johnson Space Center Oral History Project   •   NASA History Division - Oral History   •   Book: They Made America: From the Steam Engine to the Search Engine: Two Centuries of Innovators by Harold EvansOur Favorite Quotes:   •   “The thing about a book proposal is that it's a business plan.

The industrial revolution began the biggest change to humanity since the dawn of agriculture.   The start of the industrial revolution is largely considered to have begun with the invention of the steam engine. A device that could convert heat to mechanical work.  Yet, the steam engine wasn't developed all at once. It was an invention that has its roots over 2000 years in the past.  Learn more about the steam engine and how it was developed, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
