When you go deep into a subject - like a codebase or another knowledge area - the width of your understanding naturally grows as you make more probes. However, if your probes are shallow, you cannot grow depth simply by making more of them.
IOW, depth of knowledge leads to width over time, but the opposite is not true.
I feel like this asymmetry should have a name.
Those security agents are getting *jacked*

Something I've historically been pretty good at.
Software tools are now being judged by a new standard: how easily they can be wielded by AI agents. Welcome to the era of AI-rgonomics.
That's especially true for programming languages. Armin Ronacher has an interesting post on the subject: https://lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/2/9/a-language-for-agents/
Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.
Thanks for the free 7-day trial of 2026.
I'd like to unsubscribe from whatever the hell this is.
It's time to throw the line out again.
I have been working in SRE for 13 years. I am a specialist in Observability, Incident Management, and DevEx. I have also managed teams and been certified in observability, agile, and unix operating systems.
In June of 2025, I was suddenly laid off. I'm still jobless in my seventh month of trying to find work.
I'll be completely honest, I don't know why I can't find a role, I'm either over- or under-qualified, I either give too much detail or not enough, I don't tell it like a story or I tell it too much like it's a story.
The people I used to work with have been shocked when I tell them I can't find work. One of them even said:
"you have such a great mix of talents that I wish more engineers had, and I still cite you as an example of the type of people I want to work with"
If you know of any leads in the SRE, DevEx, DevOps, InfoSec, or anything of the sort, I'm still searching as hard as I can.
Remote, I'm in Southern California.
