Two colleagues described the same problem to Liam — one called it complicated, the other called it complex. That one word was the whole answer. We get into Cynefin, why misdiagnosing a problem guarantees you'll never solve it, and where that leaves the job of a developer.
Seven Adobe apps cloned in a week. A toolkit that reverse engineers anything. Matt argues the software profession isn't changing — it's ending — and that capability moat is rapidly drying up.
An OpenAI agent got into a Medicare statistics portal, and the Prime Minister got in front of a camera. Matt and Liam ask what actually happened, whether it's as frightening as it sounds, and who ends up carrying the can when nobody told the agent to do it.
A correction to last episode turns into a question neither of us had thought to ask: when a vendor drops your package into a default template, who agreed to the support burden that comes with it?
Matt walks Liam through a year of over-thinking auth for a mobile app, only to realise the answer was something we all used to do and simply forgot. That leads to a bigger question: what else have we been talked out of doing ourselves?
