A similar thing happens in the Open Source WordPress plugin repository. All of my WordPress plugins are free & Open Source. Most are tiny plugins using functionality (filters, actions) part of WordPress core. Unless WordPress becomes ba

In the Netherlands (Europe), where I reside there are plenty of jobs offering 36 or 32 hours. I think most employers are ok with it since they often also work 36 or 32 hrs. Quite a lot of people share the 'load' of bringing up a f

I agree. Pro-active audits will only go so far, there is definitely a need for other measures (which are implemented as well). A Content-Security-Policy is as far as I know still really hard to implement well (as in truly protecting assets

There are multiple attack vectors I can think of, although most can be mitigated using other security measures. I don't want to rely on audits only off course. To give you an example: using the WordPress environment as a stepping stone

A WordPress plugin may contain hundreds of interdependent npm packages all neatly bundled and minified. Without access to a package.json or package-lock.json it is quite hard to find out which individual packages have been used. Quite often

I'm happy that Microsoft provides these VM's and I hope other vendors (Hi Apple!) would provide VM's as well. So we can make sure the web is accessible for anyone regardless the browser they use.

Sad to see the word 'hackathon' being misappropriated by a bunch of companies seeking people to test their API's and maybe inspire a bit of new business developments for free. OpenState.eu is as far as I understood part of th

I like the aesthetics of the hardware, but don't like the environmental impact this will make. In my personal opinion design should strive to solve problems or answer hard to answer questions like 'how can I print without the environmental

Thanks for sharing your opinion, I've been saying the same things as you've said, except it won't help one bit. Personally I've decided it's better to strive towards helping out with both new methods like your suggested Tor nodes and 'old m

You are correct that just clicking links and tweeting about issues such as the detainment of Bassel might not be very useful, regardless on which website this happens. I've felt like this many times before. Yet doing nothing will most defin

Thanks for sharing! I wished more people would share code of projects they are no longer interested in. The educational value ('how did he/she built this') is worth a lot, regardless of the 'quality' of the code. Thank you!
