so what's the deal he goes there for a weekend, vibes a Web page and gets out?
Not sure if he lives there ( he lives in a "Tenderloin" apartment whatever that this) or not. Sounds like he attends hackathons and works on contracts from companies to do projects that "would take weeks" for engineering teams to complete. He supposedly completed them in hours. I do wonder if they review "his code" or not though.
I'm going to guess they're companies without software expertise in house, so nobody to review the code anyway.
If companies continue hiring people like this, it's only a matter of time before the exploits roll out.
