Me, reading article about poverty.
Article: "[the house] is perfectly livable - it’s very small (think ~900 sqft)"
Me, checking the calculator: 83 sq m
🤔 am I poor, most of the places I lived at were smaller or MUCH smaller (<18 sqm per person). lol

Hello kids. Sit down by the fire and grandpa will tell you a story.
Once upon a time there was this QUIC presentation done by Jana Iyengar for a small team of HTTP peeps. (in July 2016 in Stockholm)
In this presentation Jana used the image below, as he was a little tired of people proposing calling the new protocol TCP/2.
Later on, when Tatsuhiro started his work on a QUIC library he decided to call it... ng TCP2. In an homage to this.
He likes ng name prefixes. nghttp2 was his first.
Depends on what you think "caring about your users" actually is.
OpenSSL has figured that an OpenSSL-native API, integrated with already existing OpenSSL API, is important, and likewise, it's important to be able to build OpenSSL on quite a lot of platforms with a minimum of dependencies.
BTW, OpenSSL has achieved the client part by now. I'm tempted to contribute a patch that uses this... given personal time.
@levitte @ondrej I don't' think OpenSSL took that decision for its users. I think openssl did it in an attempt to increase its value in the "food chain" or something. Because it would have been super easy and friction free to do both, but OpenSSL explicitly decided to not provide what users asked for for years and instead provide what no users asked for...
But sure, this is just my own personal view. I have no actual insights.

This is a terrifying and sobering write-up by Retool on so many levels. It's about about a recent spear-phishing via SMS attack on employees, followed by voice phishing attack that deepfaked an employee's voice.
Retool said just one of its employees fell for it, which is of course all it takes. Here's the scary part:
"The voice was familiar with the floor plan of the office, coworkers, and internal processes of the company. Throughout the conversation, the employee grew more and more suspicious, but unfortunately did provide the attacker one additional multi-factor authentication (MFA) code.
The additional OTP token shared over the call was critical, because it allowed the attacker to add their own personal device to the employee’s Okta account, which allowed them to produce their own Okta MFA from that point forward. This enabled them to have an active GSuite session on that device. Google recently released the Google Authenticator synchronization feature that syncs MFA codes to the cloud. As Hacker News noted, this is highly insecure, since if your Google account is compromised, so now are your MFA codes.
Unfortunately Google employs dark patterns to convince you to sync your MFA codes to the cloud, and our employee had indeed activated this “feature”. If you install Google Authenticator from the app store directly, and follow the suggested instructions, your MFA codes are by default saved to the cloud. If you want to disable it, there isn’t a clear way to “disable syncing to the cloud”, instead there is just a “unlink Google account” option. In our corporate Google account, there is also no way for an administrator to centrally disable Google Authenticator’s sync “feature”. We will get more into this later."

Due to a recent Google change, MFA isn't truly MFA.Snir Kodesh (Retool Blog)
Did you know that a lot of things in #Rust directly implement the `Ord` trait?
For example `Option<T>` where T: Ord
doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/e…
So you can do:
assert_eq(max(Some(0), Some(1)), Some(1))
assert_eq(max(Some(0), None), Some(0))
assert_eq(min(Some(0), None), None)
There are a lot of other things that implement `Ord`:
doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trai…
Good question! I haven't tried it.
But after your question I tried and yes, `None` is lesser than anything else (which makes sense, IMO):

If you're familiar with #Auth0 Actions, I'd love your help with this problem I'm having.
community.auth0.com/t/actions-…
Actions: How do I *set* an event.user.nickname?
I have this action: exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => { // Put the user screen_name as the nickname // for Twitter connections if (event.connection.name === 'twitter' && event.user.screen_name) { event.user.Auth0 Community
Can anyone recommend a "Social Sign In" service that *isn't* Auth0?
I want people to be able to log in to my service using Twitter, Facebook, WordPress, GitHub, and - ideally - Mastodon.
Sadly Auth0 is getting buggier and buggier. And they don't support Mastodon logins.
I don't mind if it is a paid-for service. But needs to be reliable and work with Symfony.
(Looking for personal recommendations - I know how to use Google.)

@elad I can actually see the use for this in another context (and have considered designing something like it): a timelapse app for artists.
In this context, their “work” is their art, not something imposed by an employer.
It should probably be built into the drawing app or whatever, but I could see the niftiness of a workflow timelapse that captures the various apps you use and whatnot over a long period of time, without having to sit and record an actual video of the entire process.
@elad yeah, makes sense. So perhaps they're using some old tool for artists that uses screenshots when it really should use the screen share portal. It sounds terrifying at first but I sometimes watch those kinds of timelapses and feel like it would be a neat tool. 😅
But uh, yeah, hacking the Shell or whatever to just *not* give any feedback of a screenshot is the wrong way for them to go about it. 😜
@cassidy @elad Screen and window capture is useful if you want the entire app view, however some apps provide native canvas or viewport capture for timelapse purposes. For example:
* #Krita: docs.krita.org/en/reference_ma…
There are also a handful of related add-ons for #Blender that can assist since the native screencast feature was removed in 2.8.
@latenightowl @elad the flash is there to notify the user that something is taking a picture of their desktop; there is no other indication, otherwise, because it’s an instantaneous action. Unless you want a confirmation dialog, because that’s how you get a confirmation dialog.
In some countries, phones are legally mandated to have a shutter sound because of people taking pictures without consent; same thing applies here.

A friend (@vista_df] told a story of when someone stole a huge amount of copper in Hungary, and man, these photos are brutal.
In the end 150kg of copper cable was stolen, at current-ish rates that is just 200USD, but it cost the provider on the other side 250k+ USD to repair the section of cable.

Hey, remember that you can join #WritingTreat during #NaNoWriMo this year again. That's when we really kicked it off last year. Oh and, ofc the rest of the month for NaNo-prep. No one is required to follow NanoWrimo "rules or goals"
We're a twice-weekly writing group, with few option for video or voice chat. We're ND friendly, and try to focus once or twice during a two hours slot. 😅
We are actively working to be an anti-racist space, and filled with queer and trans people.
There will be space for additional sessions during the month, but that requires more people to host. And even if you only want to offer to host once session during the whole month, that could really help the community!
Feel free to ask me or @ljwrites for an invite to the matrix chat room as well!
And wiki info is here (we try to keep this updated)
wiki.writeout.ink/writingtreat…
You can Check out our other hosts from under the hashtag too.
Your feedback is highly appreciated, while we are working towards enabling it by default.

So yeah. Are there things that could be improved? Of course. When isn't there? There's always room for improvement. But considering where we came from, basically a game where you held and released one button with the previous Forza, to this? This is amazing. I can only imagine what they could do if this accessibility mindset continued. And I really hope it does. And not just for racing games. For all games. Sorry now I'm seriously just rambling.
