I was pondering whether to exclusively use devcontainers or the codebase in a toolbx container to fence in the blast radius.
"Hammer horrors - the price of using hammers"
"Smashed fingers, bent nails, shattered lives."
Come on. AI is a tool, it doesn't do anything by itself. A showcase of people using tools poorly - who is interested?

"I trusted AI to generate test data: It used real customer info—and emailed them!"
