Four things we learned at WEST 2025

As global maritime challenges intensify, the pressing need for the U.S. Department of Defense to modernize its maritime technology has never been more critical. At WEST 2025 in San Diego, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard leaders called for cutting-edge technologies to improve readiness and new capabilities to support multi-domain operations.

Chrome vs Chromium: What's the Key Difference?

Most of us know and use Google Chrome every day. It’s fast, easy to use, and works well with Google services. But have you ever heard of Chromium? You might have come across it if you’re a developer or a tester. Did you know that Chrome is built on Chromium? While they look similar, they are not the same. Chrome is a ready-to-use browser for everyday users, while Chromium is more like a base platform used by developers and testing teams. Each has its strengths and weaknesses.

AI as External Imagination

AI isn’t replacing testers—it’s becoming an extension of how they think. Here’s how @Maaret Pyhäjärvi sees it: Applications make us more creative, acting as an “external imagination.” Testers do the same for developers—when devs anticipate tester feedback, their testing improves.

AI is changing the way developers and writers work, but not always in the ways we expected. Here’s what’s really happening in 2025: Developers are now spending more time reviewing AI-generated code than writing it. Faster isn’t always better. Writers who used to rely on peer feedback are getting instant AI edits—but at the cost of real collaboration. AI is a powerful tool, but it’s shifting roles instead of eliminating work. The question isn’t if you use AI, it’s how you integrate it.
