European Open Source Academy member, @bagder Stenberg, joined the latest episode of Security Weekly Productions, discussing how Curl and #libcurl have maintained security and reliability over decades.

A must-listen for #developers and #cybersecurity enthusiasts! 👨‍💻🔒

Dear #Android #App #Developers, as it still happens far too often (no naming, no shaming! 💩 happens to everyone of us) a reminder to take good care of your #signing keys – and also take precautions for the case that your keystore might get lost. Please take a look at: f-droid.org/2023/09/03/reprodu… where I outline this topic.

Thanks!

📣 Announcing the 2024 Design System Report Survey by @zeroheight!

For the last three years, we've been asking the same question: “What's the current state of #DesignSystems?” And just like a regrettable backflip at Krispy Kreme, we're back at it again.

What's different this time is that we want to hear from more #Developers and learn more about how you build for and with design systems. Start here:

yes, mostly"

Interesting 🤔 how #CVE are leveraged as resume items, putting #programmers #developers & project leads under pressure by #bogus CVE reports or unnecessary high CVE ratings.

Popular and obscure programs are affected in the #OpenSource #POSIX world e.g #Linux #freeBSD #netBSD #openBSD

#Curl ➰ by #Daniel #Stenberg and #IP by #Fedor #Indutny are popular programs hit by this #phenomena which can lead to unwarranted #panic in the users space

NEW RESEARCH PAPER OUT! In this paper, @grimalkina and I explore how #code review anxiety is maintained and exacerbated to develop a model of code review anxiety. We also go a step further to develop and test the effectiveness of a cognitive-behavioral intervention for code review anxiety, so that we can reduce code review anxiety in an evidence-based and empirically-supported way (because science > vibes): osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8k5a…

Uh-oh. Dear #Android #app #developers – please do NOT sign your APKs-for-distribution using debug keys. Especially not with expired ones (debug keys usually expire after 365 days AFAIK)!

And who by Goofy had the idea to make it possible using such debug keys to sign release APKs, so they not even raise the "android:debuggable" flag? That's how they were not noticed when I added them (proper checks in place now to stop that).

Having to go for a cleanup in my repo now…

Apparently, #elmo wants to bring #API usage at the #birdsite down by forcing #developers to pay for consuming it. What a #jerk move - but it does not really surprise me...

Any #Android #developers out there who can help with missing descriptions/licenses – i.e. what the mentioned libraries are for? There are still a few gaps to be filled, and each single hint is helpful. Thanks ahead!

::: CPU-X needs new contributors and -or a maintainer!

CPU-X is a CPU-Z equivalent from Windows realm.

The developer: "I lost interest in developing this software, and I do not plan to make major changes in the future.

It bores me to develop new features, and I do not want to keep doing it anymore.

I work on my free time, but I have changed during these years and I want to do something else now."

Are you a software developer and interested in helping / contacting the current lead of the project for future plans?
