Has anyone ever written about the power politics of microphones, audio quality and how they influence a remote meeting?

I leave so many meetings realizing that the people who had the most influence on the call were those with the best audio quality.

I find it weird that this "copilot assisted code is less secure than manually written code, especially in the hand of beginners" gets boosted around like some gotcha.

Any code written by a human is insecure unless proven so. The dismal result in the control group show that manually handcrafted code is almost just as problematic.

The problem here isn't LLM or not LLM, it's the software development workflow around security critical software.

@mnl A thing that I think the LLMs bring in that I haven’t personally seen even beginner programmers do, is that, if given any PII for context, they often leak that pretty fast.

This isn’t to say you are wrong, but an example that I’ve run into of a difference between generated code and code from a beginner.

@mnl For sure. Where I’ve seen it be an issue is in commits, stuff like a comment that a human wouldn’t usually write:
