Holy shit. A doctor's appointment with some labs for a fever...
$33: Strep assay
$192: Flu test
$103: COVID test
$24: Bacteria culture
$361: Office visit
A $327.18 insurance adjustment means the cost of visit ends up $385.82. for a 15 minute Doctor visit and a few labs

22 hours of reading this week and another 5 books swalloed up.
3 Pretty humdrum fanfics, although the 4th was a nugget: the way the Triwizard Tournament is handled in "The Lie I've Lived"by JBern was pretty cool. Shame the sequel isn't finished, the idea was quite well handled.
I started what seems to be a bit of a Star Trek knockoff series, too, which was ... Different.

Busy days now. On this Saturday on #FOSDEM I will speak about #curl security work in "tightening every bolt":
fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event…
That's an interesting metaphor and it raises so many questions:
1. Wouldn't it have been smarter to torque them correctly from the start ?
2. How does one even determine the correct torque for any one bolt ?
3. When somebody starts a FOSS project today, where do they acquire a torque-wrench ?
And no, I'm not teasing you (this time 🙂 ) those are some of the questions I tried to find answers to with #varnishcache's "dial it to 11" code quality rule.
@bsdphk For me, open sourcing started with „here is what I did over the weekend, do what you want with it“. Now we have „civilization will end on several planets if you screw this up“ foss projects.
This is no way to run a civilization.
@bsdphk I would argue that knowing how much torque to put in or even where the bolt have to go is... a process that can only be done after already having built the project, multiple times.
There is a reason any big engineering project (yes even road and bridges) build a lot of simulations and prototypes and even to scale models.
In software, we have a chance that we can *change the product itself* once it is running for no more cost. As an engineer in any other field, I would kill for that ability, as it would makes the iterative process of designing far faster and efficient.
Said otherwise... doing it the way we do in software is more advanced and "good" engineering than doing it "in the real world".
This is ofc only one lens to look at it, but it does have some support. It is just one map to look at things, maps are not the territory.
@Di4na
It is now 50 years since Frederick P. Brooks wrote a book where he told everybody in IT to always build a prototype and to always throw it away...
I think it is very sound advice, but obviously not stand alone: The chapter on Second Systems Syndrome is equally important.
Have you ever studied the rsync source base?
I'm still not seeing a "better/more popular project" anywhere ?
Sad news - Meta is cutting their budget that includes the work I do on Rapid, so I’m looking for a new job.

Via another "crazy security scanner" report, I learn that #libcurl is installed in a #Microsoft Office and/or Teams install on Windows? According to the reddit post, in a normal install.
Does anyone know more?

The libcurl mailing list post:
"I just got 1600 detections today for this, despite it being 2 months old already"
I feel sad this is now where we're at.
