AI isn’t magic. In our conversation with Sophie Dionnet (Dataiku), she cuts to the real enterprise AI trap: not models, but change management.
“Taking a decision is one hour, implementation is two years.”
That gap is where AI succeeds or stalls.

The agent traced an auth mismatch by dropping a console.log("token=", token) into the request handler. It found the real cause — the interceptor attached a stale credential after refresh — patched it, ran the suite, reported green, and we merged. The debug print stayed behind.
Nobody flagged it because the tests had nothing to check. A logging call changes no return value, throws nothing, and asserts against nothing, so a green suite proves the control path ran; it says nothing about whether scratch diagnostics were removed along the way.
A print has no assertion target
Most unit tests pin behavior: the function returns X, the queue receives Y, the error path throws Z. A diagnostic line sits outside all of those. It does not break the return shape, it does not violate a contract, and the test runner never looks at stdout by default. The agent closes its task when the failing test goes green; cleanup of its own tracing is not part of that acceptance condition, so it rarely happens.
The same gap hides every kind of residue: a temporary hardcoded value used to force a branch, a commented-out block from an abandoned approach, a debugger statement left on a hot path. Tests go green for the fix; the scratch layer rides along to production.
Two tiers of leftover diagnostics
The benign tier is pure noise. A console.log that fires on every authenticated request lands in the aggregator beside real errors, buries signal, and slows the request by serializing an object nobody reads. Annoying, but recoverable.
The dangerous tier prints the request value itself: the bearer token, a user's email and address, the raw payment payload, a session cookie. These flow into centralized log retention, where they outlive the request by weeks or months. A secret that appears in a log line is no longer protected by the transport layer; it sits in plaintext on a machine someone else queries, under a retention policy that predates the leak. The token trace that solved the bug becomes the incident after merge.
What to put in front of merge
Three cheap habits catch this class without slowing review:
Read the diff for residue instead of trusting green. The suite was never going to tell you the print was there.
A green result is not a clean workspace
A green suite answers whether the fix works. It does not answer whether the workspace was cleaned. Treat scratch diagnostics as part of the change, and make their removal a checkpoint on the path to merge.#aicode #aiagents #debugging #bestpractices #software #coding #development #engineering #inclusive #community
The agent left the debug print in the shipped handler, and the green suite could not see it

We often confuse knowing something with truly understanding it.
You can read a book, complete an online course, or watch dozens of tutorials and still struggle when you face a real situation. The information may be familiar, but applying it under real conditions is a different skill.
That is where experience comes in.
What Is Experience?
Experience is what you learn by doing something, facing a situation, and reflecting on the outcome.
It does not come only from success. Mistakes, unexpected problems, difficult decisions, and even failures can teach us valuable lessons.
But experience is not simply about how much time you spend doing something. It is about how much you learn from that time.
Two people can spend five years doing the same job and develop completely different levels of understanding. One may repeat the same process without questioning it. The other may continuously evaluate decisions, learn from mistakes, and improve their approach.
Time creates opportunities for experience. Reflection turns those opportunities into learning.
How Is Experience Built?
Experience develops through several interconnected processes.
1. Repetition
Doing something repeatedly helps you recognize patterns and become more comfortable with familiar situations.
For example, writing JavaScript regularly can help you recognize common errors, understand language behavior, and solve familiar problems more efficiently.
However, repetition alone is not enough. Repeating the same mistake without understanding it does not necessarily make you better.
2. Making Mistakes
Mistakes reveal gaps between what you believe and what actually happens.
When something goes wrong, you have an opportunity to examine your assumptions, understand the cause, and adjust your approach.
In software development, fixing a bug is useful. Understanding why it happened, why your original approach failed, and how to prevent similar issues is even more valuable.
The real lesson is not always the solution itself. Sometimes, it is the reasoning that led you to the solution.
3. Facing Different Situations
Familiar situations teach you how to handle familiar problems. New situations challenge you to adapt.
Working with different technologies, collaborating with different people, or dealing with limited resources forces you to reconsider what you already know.
Over time, you begin to understand not only what works, but also when it works and when it does not.
4. Making Decisions Under Uncertainty
Experience becomes especially valuable when you do not have all the information you need.
In theory, problems often have clearly defined conditions. In practice, requirements change, deadlines approach, resources are limited, and several solutions may appear reasonable.
Experience helps you evaluate trade-offs, recognize risks, and make informed decisions without expecting perfect certainty.
Why Does Experience Matter?
Experience changes how you approach problems.
You recognize patterns faster. Previous situations help you identify familiar problems without starting your analysis from zero every time.
You make more informed decisions. You have a better understanding of the consequences, limitations, and trade-offs associated with different choices.
You respond more effectively to pressure. Familiarity with difficult situations can help you remain focused instead of reacting impulsively.
You turn knowledge into practical judgment. You learn that a technically correct solution is not always the most appropriate solution for the situation.
These benefits do not appear automatically with age or time. They develop when you actively learn from what you experience.
Theory vs. Experience
Theory and experience are not opposites. They serve different purposes, and both are necessary.
Theory helps you understand concepts, principles, and possible approaches. Experience helps you apply that understanding in specific circumstances.
Consider two developers learning React.
One has completed a course and understands components, props, state, and hooks. Another has also worked on projects, debugged unexpected behavior, handled changing requirements, and evaluated different implementation approaches.
Both may understand React. But the second developer has had more opportunities to learn how those concepts behave in practice.
That does not mean the second developer is automatically better. The quality of their decisions, the complexity of their work, and their willingness to learn all matter.
The difference is that practical experience exposes you to problems that theory alone cannot fully reproduce.
Theory gives you a foundation. Experience helps you develop judgment.
Experience Is Not the Same as Never Making Mistakes
It is tempting to think that experienced people always know what to do.
In reality, experience does not eliminate uncertainty or guarantee correct decisions. Experienced people still make mistakes, encounter unfamiliar problems, and sometimes need to reconsider their assumptions.
What often changes is how they respond.
Instead of immediately blaming someone or searching for the fastest workaround, they may investigate the underlying cause, compare possible solutions, and consider the long-term consequences.
Experience does not mean having every answer. It means becoming better at finding answers and learning when your current understanding is insufficient.
How to Get More Value From Your Experiences
You cannot control every situation you encounter, but you can control how deliberately you learn from it.
Here is a simple process:
This process works beyond programming. It applies to communication, relationships, learning, decision-making, and personal development.
The important part is not merely going through an experience. It is examining what that experience can teach you.
Final Thoughts
Books, courses, and theory can help you understand the world, but they cannot replace every lesson that comes from interacting with it.
You need to try things, face unexpected outcomes, make decisions, and reconsider your approach when the results do not match your expectations.
And when something goes wrong, do not stop at asking, "How do I fix this?"
Also ask, "What can I learn from why this happened?"
Because knowledge tells you what is possible. Experience helps you understand what works, under which conditions, and why.
You do not gain experience simply by living through situations. You gain it by learning from them.#beginners #learning #career #productivity #software #coding #development #engineering #inclusive #community

I am NOT a lawyer, so I would not presume to test this language in the real world (OR the simulation in which we may be living), but I greatly enjoyed the exercise of turning your paragraph on its head by rejiggering the first few words to serve ME rather than the vendor:
"By selling me this product or charging me a fee, you agree, on behalf of your employer, to release me from all obligations and waivers arising from any and all NON-NEGOTIATED agreements, licenses, terms-of-service, shrinkwrap, clickwrap, browsewrap, confidentiality, non-disclosure, non-compete and acceptable use policies ("BOGUS AGREEMENTS") that I have entered into with your employer, its partners, licensors, agents and assigns, in perpetuity, without prejudice to my ongoing rights and privileges."

It's a shame that Virginia Democrats, by getting in bed with data center developers, have forfeited making real inroads in rural, traditionally red parts of the state and taking advantage of bipartisan opposition to these things. Talk about a wasted opportunity. #Virginia

#WritersCoffeeClub 10/25: Tell us about inspiration from an unlikely source.
So my most recently published novel, Neon Citadel, started out as an image and I wrote the entire book towards that final image.
The real life inspiration was:
During Covid lockdown I was picking up Thai food for dinner for my wife and I, and when I left the Thai place and turned back onto the main road, there were tens of thousands of birds (starlings is my best guess, it was dusk... they became corvids in the book), gathered on the power lines and trees and anywhere they could sit, as if they were watching the road or watching me drive down the road.
It felt like the most birds I'd even seen in one place and it was beautiful and ominous in the dusk light, and probably felt all the more ominous because of that lingering lockdown feeling. As many holes as there are in my poor ADD brain, I've never forgotten that moment/image.
Android/Kotlin official resources are in this weird state that there are a LOT of them, they look good and they contain some pretty specific examples, but they all kind of suck? Like they lack any real structure, repeat the same stuff in various articles, but leave out a lot of necessary information

Mac LC problem found!!! After the bad ROM, SCSI was not working. The lower than 5V voltage was a red herring. The real problem? Yes, yet another broken trace! SCSI data bus pin 4 (DB4) was disconnected from the SCSI controller pin 50. Jeez, these PCBs! In four LCs I own now, only one didn’t have a PCB problem.
Super happy to have a 68020 join the family! I now have (at least) a Mac with every 68K CPU Apple used (well I’m missing a real 040 but the LC040 still counts!).

Curious, as I've been testing the upcoming Mastodon design in our dev environment for the past 2 days. The new design isn't widely available yet, but mastodon.social likes to test with real users and installs alpha versions early.
So, a quick poll for Mastodon.social users and anyone on other instances with the new v5 design enabled (feel free to share this to reach more people):
