You're forgetting all the hardening in the middle to prevent the privilege escalation that would enable mass deployment of ransomware.

If you don't report, it's bad. Defenders need to know.

It's level two they don't need to pretend. It's always the driver's fault. What will be interesting is Mercedes level three turning itself off right before a crash.

Yeah idk. If you check my comment history you will see this conversation getting played from several angles. Obviously trump is worse than Biden, but Trump being that bad means if we all agree to fall in line then Biden has no incentive to to improve

We could play the slow game and slowly install progressive people and hopefully stuff will be better in 50 years, but with the wealth inequality since Reagan I feel like we've already tried the slow game. It's hard to tell if things are actually improving.

I'm just so sick of watching Bernie be on the right side of history every time. Motherfucker is actually literally batting a thousand

And yet he's not our prez. Shit sucks

Laughs in "I made an account on the NSFW instance"

Those are certainly rookie numbers.

Have those audits you allude to ever caught anything before it went live? Cuz this backdoor has been around for a month and RedHat is affected, too. Plus this was the single owner of a package who is implicitly trusted, it's not like it was a random contributor whose PRs would get reviewed.

The code being open source helps people track it down once they try to debug an issue (performance issue and crashes because in their setup the memory layout was not what the backdoor was expecting), that's true. But what actually triggered the investigation was the bug. After that it's just a matter of time to trace it back to the backdoor. You understimate reverse engineers. Or maybe I'm just spoiled.

How long until US bans code from developers with ties to CN/RU?

That's super interesting. All this time I thought she was doing it on the side in a "mind your own business" way.

But intentionally advertising like this bridges the two lives so the "other life" is correct to respond, IMO.

That being said I do like the Wordly app cuz you can customize the length of the words, and some other tweaks.
