The balance between automating a repetitive manual task and doing the manual task periodically is incredibly tricky. It's incredibly tempting to automate things to make our lives easier. But is it actually saving you time? Or would it take over a year to be net neutral?

Something I really love about being involved in @nodejs is that I get to have a leadership role in a fairly large organization without having a single person "reporting" to me.

Hey cis "allies." If we can't even trust you to stop throwing money at a transphobic YA author, how are we supposed to trust you with anything important?

this high-profile vulnerability in an open source project is really reinforcing my belief that, to a dominant portion of users, the primary important thing about free software is that it is gratis, rather than libre

but its not the log4j's responsibility to fix this in a timely fashion they didnt make any promises to any big corps about SLAs or any shit like that, and if there are **consequences** for those corps, that is FINE it might suck, but that's not the dev's responsibility

A project with a footprint like Log4j is not possible to avoid as a transient dependency even if you don’t directly import it. Log4j is a canonical logging utility for a huge ecosystem. Its current radius is beyond doing due diligence.

Post details

The log4j case is not a showcase for bad OSS funding. It is a showcase for naive and cheap users not doing their due diligence, code review and testing before using components. Remember goto fail? Silly bugs are shipped even with the greatest funding.

My team could spend an entire year reviewing the code from one “npm install”. I don’t think it’s really feasible to do code review across all OSS components. But funding? Absolutely.

Just added support to LDAP Serialized Payloads in the JNDI-Exploit-Kit. This attack path works in *ANY* java version as long the classes used in the Serialized payload are in the application classpath. Do not rely on your java version being up-to-date and update your log4j ASAP!

If AWS were rebuilt today, what high-level incidental complexity do you wish would be eliminated via different design decisions? E.g. issues with ARNs or URL structure, or even ‘I want regions for data sovereignty, not resiliency.’ Bonus for examples creating toil inside AWS.

There’s not a single line in “Santa claus is coming to town” that makes it sound like a good thing. If it wasn’t for the jaunty tune I’d interpret it the same way as a warning the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse were arriving.

JK Rowling trying to make trans women out to be rapists is a new low. It’s part of the TERF tactics and it goes to show how far down the transphobia rabbit hole she’s gone. Trans women are not rapists. Trans women are women, who just want a chance to live like any other woman.

It’s striking that J.K.Rowling only has the energy to speak out about sexual assault when it’s in service of a spurious moral panic around trans people. At the end of the day, you do just have to conclude that she’s a common garden reactionary.

Scrooge McDuck 📕 (@amphitryoniades)Sun, 12 Dec 2021 23:15 GMT

jk rowling is a bad person w/ bad politics, a childish understanding of feminism and a truly ugly spirit. it’s embarrassing to look at her tweets. it’s upsetting to watch her harm marginalized people. it’s infuriating to me as a feminist, as an assault survivor and as a woman.

Earliest evidence we’ve found so far of #Log4J exploit is 2021-12-01 04:36:50 UTC. That suggests it was in the wild at least 9 days before publicly disclosed. However, don’t see evidence of mass exploitation until after public disclosure.

Real talk: Garak was such a great combination of character & actor that he almost transcended the show & even Star Trek itself. They basically put an ambiguously gay John le Carré antihero into the middle of a space opera.
