That's true as well, especially if you're still developing and changing things - because you tend to realise problems only after you've pushed the new screenshot :P

I think the reason is that you can get quite much of a tunnel vision while developing. Everyone involved already knows what they're building and how it looks, so it's very easy to overlook it. Case in point, I recently wrote a CLI

While this may be a bit of a tongue-in-cheek comment, I've started to think that this is exactly how it should be: People that are elected by the public and hold the power to define every aspect of our lives, should be held to the abso

Is it me or was there a similar vulnerability reported a few years ago? Something about the attacker getting access to all platform's users' databases, though not sure if it was cosmos or something similar.

Depends on the software. In this case, the companies that make and provide AI models that are increasingly used to interact with me on critical things (banks, public sector services) then yes. Abso-fucking-lutely they should be regulated li

This is not true. I'm a Firefox user and it works perfectly fine in Firefox.

I wanted to draw the distinction between something that destroys lives over a longer period of time (smoking) VS something like gambling where you could lose your life's savings in seconds. The alcohol mentioned in a sibling comment al

Not the original person you replied to, but as far as I'm concerned there are a few questions that could very easily indicate which side of the line is something. E.g. - Is it addictive? - Does it have the potential to destroy lives? -

This feels like a good idea in principle, but I can't shake the feeling that it just moves the goalposts one step away: Now your app doesn't have direct access to your stripe/github/aws/whatever keys (which is good!

While I agree in principle, I have to remind you (and to myself) that Australia is part of the Five Eyes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes

For me it's quite simple: It works and it stays out of my way. I've owned a macbook since 2010, with a short break during the touchbar era when I got myself an XPS with windows which I dual-booted with ubuntu and later a system76

Ah, that's a fair point. In that case then yes, I have been bothered by the borrow checker very much indeed lol.

by sakisv 9mo ago
As someone who's only did a couple of small toy-projects in rust I was never annoyed by the borrow checker. I find it nothing but a small mental shift and I kinda like it. What I _do_ find annoying though and I cannot wrap my head arou

Given that a lot of places that deal with money use them, I find your comment quite interesting and would like to learn more :)

The way I solve the plain text problem is through a combination of direnv[1] and pass[2]. For a given project, I have a `./creds` directory which is managed with pass and it contains all the access tokens and api keys that are relevant

I think I agree with what I think you're trying to say. However I don't agree with the repercussions of this, which are the same ones that make all reasonable people, security experts included, oppose EU's ChatControl or the

So, this is Google Now but instead of one company having access to the data on their systems, now you're giving access to your data from different companies/sources to OpenAI. (I do miss Google Now, it really did feel like the fut

I want to SaaS-ify my scraping process. It's gotten to a point that it works nice and reliably for me, now I need to wrap it in a good DX package and call it version 0.1. (The main drive behind this was not to sell it, but to have a UI

Starting a bit of a tangent here I admit, but this makes me much more worried about the future of mobile browsing. Sure, soon enough a decent non-chromium based desktop browser will come along, be it Zen or something else, but what about th

I have no reason to doubt your explanation and intention, however I think it would have been more efficient if this misunderstanding could be avoided. Maybe something like "This looks good. Would be nice to see it extended to support c
