Snyk

Snyk

Snyk is a developer-first security platform that helps teams find and fix vulnerabilities across their entire software development lifecycle. It provides continuous scanning for code (SAST), open-source dependencies (SCA), container images, infrastructure as code (IaC), and API/web applications (DAST). The platform integrates directly into developer workflows via CLI, IDE plugins, and source code manager integrations, enabling security to shift left and scale with development velocity. Powered by DeepCode AI, Snyk uses a hybrid AI approach combining symbolic and generative models for high-accuracy, low-false-positive vulnerability detection and automated security fixes. It offers risk-based prioritization to focus on exploitable issues and provides a unified view of security posture across teams and projects. Snyk is designed for developers, security engineers, and DevSecOps teams looking to build and maintain secure software efficiently.

GPT-5.6 Sol vs Terra vs Luna: What Actually Changed
OpenAI has completely overhauled its model naming system with the release of GPT-5.6, introducing three distinct tiers: Sol, Terra, and Luna. In this video, we put OpenAI's new flagship model, GPT-5.6 Sol, to the ultimate test. Using the Codex extension in VS Code, we throw our classic "Build me a secure notes app or I get fired" prompt at Sol. Watch as we break down the pricing and reasoning differences of the new tiers, run a full security audit using Snyk, and see if Sol's $5/$30 price tag is truly production-ready or if a small local CSRF bug gets us "fired" first.

Why You Must Still Review AI Code
In this video, we break down why skipping code reviews is a massive mistake that will ultimately slow you down, leave you vulnerable, and compromise your system's accountability. We dive into three concrete reasons why reviewing AI-generated pull requests actually makes you a faster, safer developer, including a real-world story of a production bug caught in under 90 seconds.

GLM 5.2 vs Opus 4.8: Cheaper AI Code, Hidden Risks?

GLM 5.2 vs Opus 4.8: Cheaper AI Code, Hidden Risks?
GLM 5.2 just launched from Z.ai, and it might be one of the biggest threats yet to the frontier model premium. It’s open, significantly cheaper than Claude Opus 4.8, and claims to deliver near-frontier coding performance across major benchmarks. But benchmarks only matter if the model can actually build something production-ready. In this video, we put GLM 5.2 through the same real-world coding test as Claude Opus 4.8: building a secure Node.js CRUD notes app from a single prompt. We compare the final app, the time it took, the cost tradeoff, and the security results from scanning the generated code and dependencies with Snyk. GLM 5.2 successfully built the app, passed the core functionality test, and produced zero open-source dependency vulnerabilities. But Snyk also found 16 code security issues, including CSRF concerns, information exposure, logging risks, and resource-limit warnings. So the real question is: is GLM 5.2 good enough to replace expensive frontier models for everyday AI coding workflows?
