Welcome to the world of computers, where some errors are really just warnings, and some warnings should be treated as errors.
Researchers from Purdue and NCSU have found a large number of command injection vulnerabilities in the workflows of projects on GitHub. Follow these four tips to keep your GitHub Actions workflows secure.

Executives at Network Rail spent £10,000 per week flying around the country for meetings and tried to justify it by saying that it's cheaper than going by train. A modern parable. https://www.railtech.com/all/2023/08/08/uk-industry-deeply-frustrated-by-network-rail-air-travel-policy/

In many languages, on of the things I find myself doing is maping over a list to extract some field. For example, coverting a []Person to []Name. Most languages these days have ways to do this pretty easily: Kotlin: people.map { it.Name } JavaScript: people.map(p => p.Name) Rust: people.map(|p| p.Name) Scala: people.map(_.Name) With generics, Go finally can do this in a type safe manner: Map(people, func(t Person) string { return t.
Alt text isn't just helpful for the sight-impaired. By reading alt text I can identify what the OP is calling attention to in the pic, helping me get the joke or social commentary that would otherwise be illegible to me. (Without this I'm like, I see a thousand details and I don't know which one matters to you.) #ActuallyAutistic
Seems #Zoom would rather we ignored section 10 of its Terms of Service and just read the nice marketing words on its blog. https://blog.zoom.us/zooms-term-service-ai/ I'll still go by the ToS thanks https://the.webm.ink/not-using-zoom
whomst amongst us who is not Richard Stallman has the moments in our one wild and precious life to dedicate to self-hosting all the things in the world that an Open Source Guy has told us must be self-hosted
Attached: 1 image Made something a bit different today: a colour-blindness friendly visual hash. In reality it just visualises bytes, with 256 possible options for each cell, so any hashing function can be used with this (or none at all, just put in bytes). Putting a little process diary for this in the replies.

In the public sector we're often told to follow what the private sector do, that they are the model to follow. In reality, we do some things better in the public sector: accessibility, user research that is not led by profit, working in the open, avoiding deceptive patterns, going slow and not breaking things. The web itself came from the public sector, we can all learn from each other.

Whenever news breaks of bad decisions from a popular product, there's a flurry of recommendations of various alternatives, and in that mix there's always folks extolling the virtues of hosting your own. As a person who works on security for an open source project, my spicy take is this: unless you enjoy being your own sysadmin (some folks do!), any hosted solution from a vendor that is currently reputable and currently has acceptable terms is a better, safer option than self-hosting.

My talk is on Weds 11:20 - 12:00; follow me to the Q&A after so I can bequeath you a ticket for a *free* copy of my book I’ll sign at the Fastly booth 14:30 - 15:30. See you there ✨

It’s maddeningly US-centric with its passive aggression, toxic positivity, and work-worship agenda. It’s also hilariously mis-targeted for Europeans. Having worked with people from all over Europe, the work culture is the same. “My time is MY time”. Just last week I asked a junior colleague to do something (not knowing the time) at half 4 on Friday. Their reply was leaning back on their chair and poking their head around the desk divider and saying “have you seen the time? You can absolutely get to fuck with that”. Completely the correct response.
@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me also please don’t downplay your help, i really appreciated it 💛 and can’t believe you only have a week off left! 😱
