Secure Boot was designed to solve one of the most fundamental security problems in computing: how to ensure that only trusted software starts your machine. But like any architectural decision, it came with its own trade-offs, and its own technical debt. In this episode of Technical Debt: Design, Risk and Beyond, Maxim Silaev and Nikita Golovko explore Secure Boot as a case study in how solving one kind of debt often creates another.

Can AI help identify hidden technical debt better than humans?
In this episode of Technical Debt: Design, Risk and Beyond, hosts Maxim Silaev and Nikita Golovko explore whether artificial intelligence can really spot technical debt more effectively than human architects and engineers. Drawing on real-world projects: from investor due diligence to scaling SaaS platforms, they share stories of how AI has surfaced invisible hotspots, misread healthy churn as risk, and mapped sprawling dependencies. Together, they examine three critical signals of hidden deb...
