Shadow AI Is Already in Your Codebase - Why Banking Needs a Risk-Based Governance Model for AI-Native SDLC

Most of the AI-generated code already in your codebase arrived through unsanctioned tools on personal accounts. This is Shadow AI — and like shadow banking before 2008, the risk is invisible until it isn't. Here's how to govern it with risk-based triage, traceability, and Continuous Modernization.

Direct-Style Deep Recursive Functions in Scala 3

Kotlin's DeepRecursiveFunction turns deep recursion into a heap-allocated trampoline while keeping direct-style code, built on suspend functions. This post explains why that works, then builds a Scala 3 macro that does the same trick with no coroutines and no Project Loom, by rewriting a recursive method into a TailRec state machine at compile time.

Current state of Scala and WebAssembly Component Model

Recently, Wasm is used in different areas: safely running AI-generated code, server-side applications with ultra-fast cold starts, and language-independent plugin systems. What Wasm itself can do is just a pure computation. It cannot affect the outside world directly. Things like file I/O, clocks, and networking have to go through interfaces imported from the host. So unless the host explicitly gives it access, a Wasm module cannot perform external effects. This is why Wasm is often described as a sandbox.
