I wrote about what happens when you rewrite mature software with agents. You rebuild the features. You don't rebuild the scars.

vinext: one engineer, one week, $1,100 in tokens. Then plenty of vulnerabilities found within days.

Iโ€™ve spent 2 solid hours doing bug bounty and I still havenโ€™t made $200k.

Can someone tell me what Iโ€™m doing wrong?

I Donโ€™t Want My Devs to Become Hackers! - PentesterLab's Blog Discover why encouraging developers to learn ethical hacking boosts security, reduces bugs, and fosters a proactive security culture in your organization.

Think teaching devs to hack is risky?

In reality, a bit of hacking knowledge helps them spot vulnerabilities early and build stronger apps.

Discover why having devs with a 'hacker mindset' is a win for security:

From now on, I'll call any snippet of vulnerable code shared on Social Media as

"Security Code Review Porn"

It gives the wrong expectations about what real code review actually involves.

I put together a VERY limited (for now) list of web hackers in a Starter pack:

go.bsky.app/9uay4Ad

A lot of people are missing (I will try to add more as I find them) but make sure you follow people already in the list!
