New scrape: Instagram allegedly had 17M rows of largely public data scraped from an API and posted to a hacking forum this week. 6.2M rows also included an email address, and some rows a phone number. 100% were already in @haveibeenpwned. Read more: haveibeenpwned.com/Breach/Inst…

Have I Been Pwned: Instagram Data Breach

In January 2026, data allegedly scraped via an Instagram API was posted to a popular hacking forum. The dataset contained 17M rows of public Instagram information, including usernames, display names, account IDs, and in some cases, geolocation data.

"…muss ich bekennen, dass wir alle […] nicht ein Hundertstel, nicht ein Tausendstel dessen für möglich gehalten haben, was dann immer wenige Wochen später hereinbrechen sollte."

- Stefan Zweig, Die Welt von Gestern

Ein autobiografisches Werk Stefan Zweigs.

Das Buch entstand kurz vor Zweigs Tod in den letzten Jahren (von 1939 bis 1941) seines Exils und erschien postum 1942 in Stockholm.

archive.org/details/StefanZwei…

Man kann dreißig oder vierzig Jahre inneren Weltglaubens schwer abtun in einigen wenigen Wochen. Verankert in unseren Anschauungen des Rechts, glaubten wir an die Existenz eines deutschen, eines europäischen, eines Weltgewissens und waren überzeugt, es gebe ein Maß von Unmenschlichkeit, das sich selbst ein für allemal vor der Menschheit erledige. Da ich versuche, hier so ehrlich als möglich zu bleiben, muß ich bekennen, daß wir alle 1933 und noch 1934 in Deutschland und Österreich jedesmal nicht ein Hundertstel, nicht ein Tausendstel dessen für möglich gehalten haben, was dann immer wenige Wochen später hereinbrechen sollte. Allerdings: daß wir freien und unabhängigen Schriftsteller gewisse Schwierigkeiten, Unannehmlichkeiten, Feindseligkeiten zu erwarten hätten, war von vorneweg klar. Sofort nach dem Reichstagsbrand sagte ich meinem Verleger, es werde nun bald vorbei sein mit meinen Büchern in Deutschland. Ich werde seine Verblüffung nicht vergessen. »Wer sollte Ihre Bücher verbieten?« sagte er damals, 1933, noch ganz erstaunt. »Sie haben doch nie ein Wort gegen Deutschland geschrieben oder sich in Politik eingemengt.« Man sieht: all die Ungeheuerlichkeiten, wie Bücherverbrennungen und Schandpfahlfeste, die wenige Monate später schon Fakten sein sollten, waren einen Monat nach Hitlers Machtergreifung selbst für weitdenkende Leute noch jenseits aller Faßbarkeit. Denn der Nationalsozialismus in seiner skrupellosen Täuschertechnik hütete sich, die ganze Radikalität seiner Ziele

Mal by som otázku/prosbu na mieste osadenstvo. Vždy som chcel vedieť programovať, ale nikdy mi to veľmi nešlo. Naposledy som to skúšal pred 13 rokmi, kedy som sa skúšal naučiť PHP (konkrétne Laravel).

Chcel by som to znova vyskúšať, a tak otázka znie, či by mi niekto vedel poradiť, ako na to, resp. nejaké tipy na návody a pod. Potreboval by som to vysvetľovať asi čo najprimitívnejšie ako to len pôjde, a ideálne aby to bolo v slovenčine/češtine. Taktiež aby to bolo zadarmo, keďže nemám peniaze na nejaké platené kurzy. Mohla by mi v učení pomôcť aj AI? Aj keď viem, že tu nie sú jej priaznivci, no ja osobne nie som jej zarytý kritik.

A aby som nezabudol, prioritne by som sa chcel asi naučiť to PHP (aby som vedel naprogramovať webstránky, nejaké redakčné systémy a pod.), prípadne ešte C++ (keďže by som chcel vedieť programovať Arduino).

Vopred ďakujem za rady/pomoc.

Python je dobrá voľba z viacerých (netechnických) ohľadov, najmä dostupnosť učebného materiálu (dokumentácia, knihy, tutoriály, blogy) a veľkosť komunity (množstvo ľudí, ktorí vedia pomôcť).

Ako už bolo písané, je dobré mať nejaký cieľ (projekt), ktorý bude motiváciou učiť sa (áno, sú aj ľudia, ktorí sa učia teoretickú fyziku "len tak"...). Netreba sa báť skúšať, zlyhávať, pýtať sa a opravovať, dokým to nepôjde.

Ja "programujem" 2/3 svojho života a stále sa učím :)

Dutch AON FttH specs are saying just TX 1310nm, RX 1490/1550 nm.
I bought a 1550nm one as they are much more common and got no link. So I bought a 1490nm one and the link came up immediately.

Then I bought fibre cleaning pens, got extra 10 dB by cleaning the connectors and now even the 1550nm one gets the link.
So probably if you have enough optical power, all SFPs are wideband 😁

We will be participating at #fosdem in Bruxelles (31.1. / 1.2.). 🚀 Well, at least kind of...

Our @bene64 will join the Free Android World stand together with @BlissLabs and @shiftphones as part of the @IzzyOnDroid team.

His focus there will be primarily the IoD project, but he will be happy to discuss #BrewMemo as well ;)

Please come by and drop a hello, when you're also visiting.

“Code is not an infinitely reproducible machine that requires no labor inputs to operate. Rather, it is a brittle machine that requires increasingly heroic measures to keep it in good working order, and which eventually does "wear out" (in the sense of needing a top-to-bottom refactoring).”

— @pluralistic, pluralistic.net/2026/01/06/100…

The myth that "old code doesn't rust" persists because it justifies moving fast, breaking things, and leaving it for someone else to clean up the mess.

KDE developers, is this true /j

@katzenmann@c3d2.social That's exactly my point - the "whole Linux community doing Wayland" was never true to begin with. It was Red Hat pushing it like crazy and KDE unfortunately following suit.

Had a look at "multi-agent coding" today.

Apparently, the first step is signing up for the premium plans from OpenAI, Anthropic AND Google. So that's £50 to £500 a month. Then installing a massive pile of NodeJS to coordinate it all.

A few years ago, we were all celebrating how computing had gotten cheap: RasPi Zeros for a tenner, old HP workstations or ThinkPads on eBay for £100.

Having to pay three different landlords to build software seems like an incredibly shit vision of the future.

This is racism. (And also, the World Cross-Country Championships this year are clearly being rigged.)

"According to a report from LetsRun.com, only four of the 18 Ethiopian U20 athletes had their U.S. visa applications accepted"

(That's the national team with the 44-year winning streak. Other countries, including Eritrea, are also excluded due to Trump's racist travel bans.)

Después de volver del último concierto no volví a sacar el saxofón del estuche, hasta hoy. A veces es necesario desconectarse hasta de la música por un tiempito. Mientras jugaba un rato con algunos pasajes para reencontrarme, salió la caricia de esta hermosa melodía del gran cuchi y su zamba me voy quedando. No sé ni donde puse el micrófono, pero no importa. Era solo para ir quitando telarañas de los dedos mientras jugamos a hacer música.

Ah nice. Was just searching for reasons to get rid of this old Echo Dot 4 which sadly has such a good sound but is otherwise useless and kinda spyware to me, as I just got an E-Mail saying that there were smart home devices on my network which are Alexa compatible... Did I ever ask you to scan my network like that? Yeah na good bye bro.

Because I'm curious, have a random poll. If someone posts or sends you a link to a video or song, do you click it/look at it? Feel free to boost this if you feel like it. Apologies for the limited choices, my clients won't let me go above 5. Last edit I promise, the duration was messed up. Sorry for anyone who previously voted

  • I regularly click video or song links (9%, 8 votes)
  • Only if the person indicated what the link was (40%, 33 votes)
  • Only if it's from specific people (23%, 19 votes)
  • I rarely or never click video or song links (21%, 17 votes)
  • Something else, put in replies (4%, 4 votes)
81 voters. Poll end: 4 days ago
