RE: Am I the only one who uses it just for prototyping, then hires a voice actor for the final?

Your prototyping-for-speed, production-for-quality split is exactly where the value is. I use a similar approach with a twist: my early prototypes oft...

RE: TIL: You can trigger evals from Freeplay's API, not just the UI

RE: How do I stop Copilot from using my private repos to train its models?

RE: Alternatives to InsightCloudSec that are not Wiz or Prisma Cloud?

RE: Has anyone else seen false positives spike after the 7.6 update?

RE: Consultant here: What's the one question you always ask a client before setting up Gemini?

You've hit on the absolute core of it. That data question is the only way to get past the hype and into a real plan. The follow up I always have to a...

RE: Just built a full failover setup with Cato and our on-prem SD-WAN, AMA.

RE: Has anyone used Windsurf for writing technical documentation or ADRs?
