What happened
This is a personal wildlife sighting post from Simon Willison's weblog, recording a California Sea Lion and Brandt's Cormorant observed at Pillar Point Harbor, CA. The only tech-adjacent content is a sponsor blurb from Teleport referencing 13 engineers using LLMs to 'pressure wash' their codebase for 90 days, finding that quality matters more than quantity for security vulnerability discovery.
Why it matters
There is no actionable technical content here. The sponsor mention vaguely suggests LLM-based code review prioritizes quality over quantity for security, but provides no detail, methodology, or replicable findings to act on.
Discussion angle
Skip this item for the meetup; it is a nature photo post with no substantive technical takeaway worth discussing.
