This week’s highlights

Top Quotes  

“There’s always that line: If you build a module that is very effective for users across the board, regardless of what they’re doing, at some point it just becomes a resource. It’s pretty tough to build complex modules that everybody’s going to use as-is, and not want to end up making their own.”

“I do not envy security people in this current climate. The proliferation of cloud computing, edge computing, has really had to get a lot of creative minds working together to try and secure data outside your four walls of sanctity. … And so it’s good to see big companies starting to chime in and address that, because I think it’s just going to continue to keep growing.”
