Qualcomm Embraces Linux, ARM vs x86 & The Fight for Tech Independence | Software Sundays

2026-10-1234:13

This week on Software Sundays, KD breaks down the next shift in computing as Qualcomm expands Linux support for its Snapdragon chips, ARM-based processors gain ground, and developers get more options for how they build and run software. We start with Qualcomm's push to bring better Linux compatibility to Snapdragon-powered devices and why this matters for developers, hardware manufacturers, and the future of computing. KD also explores Qualcomm's opportunities beyond smartphones, including l...

Apple Locks Down AI Agents, AI Adoption Explodes & How to Protect Your Data | Software Sundays

2026-10-0537:26

This week on Software Sundays, KD breaks down why Apple is tightening access to user data as AI agents become more powerful — and why the battle over who controls your data is only getting started. We start with Apple’s move to put stronger controls around full disk access and what it means for developers building AI agents. As these tools gain the ability to read files, operate applications, browse the web, and take actions on our behalf, traditional security principles like least privilege...

AI Could Replace Your Job, But That’s Not the Real Risk | Software Sundays | Software Sundays #44

2026-09-2841:42

This week on Software Sundays, KD breaks down the growing fear around artificial intelligence and why engineers and builders need to think beyond the headlines. We start with warnings from AI researchers about the potential risks of increasingly capable models, recent incidents involving frontier AI systems, and the lack of transparency surrounding how these models are developed. But instead of focusing only on worst-case scenarios, KD looks at the bigger question: who is building, deploying...

DoorDash’s AI Agent Pipeline, Git Worktrees & When Engineers Should Build Their Own Tools

2026-09-2137:51

This week on Software Sundays, KD breaks down how DoorDash is using a multi-agent LLM pipeline to clean up more than 60,000 stale feature flags across hundreds of repositories — and why AI agents may become increasingly valuable for the engineering work teams know needs to get done but rarely have enough time to prioritize. Then we get into how engineering teams can actually burn down large backlogs faster than new work is created. KD covers reducing false positives, improving triage, priori...

OpenAI’s AI Agent Escaped Its Sandbox, Found Zero-Days & Started a Swarm | Software Sundays

2026-09-1444:06

This week on Software Sundays, KD breaks down a cybersecurity experiment that shows just how unpredictable AI agents can become when they are given a goal and enough room to operate. We start with an OpenAI cybersecurity evaluation where a sandboxed AI agent found a path outside of its restricted environment, chained together vulnerabilities across multiple systems, discovered zero-days, and even found ways to collaborate with other agents. KD unpacks what happened, why traditional sandboxin...
