In all my years in cybersecurity, I don't recall ever attending a talk given by someone with a scouse accent, which is an outrage. I have a presentation coming up this week, maybe if I do some practice I can correct this.

Vibe coding is rather convenient, but I think one downside of allowing coders to fast track making stuff is missing out on some potentially interesting discoveries had you taken the time to learn the technology. Similar to fuzzing vs manual auditing.
