It still has pagination? It has been showing me an infinite list of results for a while now.

Your individuality will be statistically insignificant. Your commonality will be misinterpreted and taken out of context. You will become croutons in our word salad.

Today we got what must be the most alarming first line in a newly file sec issue to :

"To replicate the issue, I have searched in the Bard about this vulnerability"

... followed by a complete AI hallucination where Bard has dreamed up a new issue by combining snippets from several past flaws. Creative, but hardly productive.

Closed as bogus.

Two times in the last two days, MS Teams simply swallowed my messages. Type two messages in a row, switch to a different browser tab, do something else, look back at the Teams tab, poof, the first message is gone with no error. The second message is still there. Fuck you Microsoft.

yeah, I was thinking either that or maybe some deferred task with no error handler shat itself and the entire promise chain fell apart. Those are always fun to debug. /s

Two new hires joined my workplace today. Introduction chat:
Hire 1: “In my free time, I like to read books, so if you want to talk about George Orwell or something, just chat me up on a coffee break”
Hire 2: “Oh, what a coincidence, I just finished reading Orwell. Ninety-eighty-four … or something!”

@nf3xn
lol, that’s better than using 'fuck' as punctuation 🤣

But in my case, no, I feel that was just the fact that we Europeans use a chaotic non-native version of English, and hire 2 was a bit flustered in front of new people :)

I’m now thinking about analogies between consent pop-ups and this old bash quote about IRC file transfers:

It’s amusing how quickly my “2 LLMs 1 Internet” quip is coming true. Or maybe I should say “alarming”.

If that particular visual is not your favourite, another description I like is “Kessler syndrome for information”.

that bleak feeling when the customer says “I exported all orders and only got 2 orders instead of many, why??” and you can see his screenshot where he set a very specific filter for which orders he wanted to export

That’s not entirely true, we developers have also made our own lives worse, and other developers’ lives worse, and we made javascript popular. But I repeat myself.

    This talk was really fascinating:
    “How Ukraine’s largest bank performed disaster recovery in the beginning of the full-on war, 2022”
    Oleksiy Zayets, Head of IT Infrastructure, Privatbank

    Cloud migration prerequisites - Already built AWS setup - Existing small cloud team - Prepared Direct Channels to cloud - WAF, entry points and Shield in AWS - VMWare on prem - 98% cloud supported resources - No significant license limitations 98% on-prem hardware x86-64 compatible 85% on-prem workloads virtualized 10% on-prem workloads containerized
    How we managed migration in emergency mode 1. Sort systems by criticality (from the most critical) 2. Split resources by type (databases, apps, b, mq etc.) 3. Run steps for each type of resources (provisioning -> configuration -> datasync -> test -> switch in production) Project timeline Wave 1 Critical - 217 systems: March, April Connectivity Branches ATMs, PoS, etc.: March, April Wave 2 - Important 117 systems: April Wave 3 - Supporting 26 systems: July We made the World record - 45 days - 334 systems migrated - 3000+ instances manually deployed - 6 PB of data uploaded - 300+ IT employees w/o external help (only AWS consultancy) - In total only 45 hours of downtime
    What main challenges we’ve faced - War is a huge stress - People didn’t believe in migration - Hybrid configuration on intermediate stage - Payment systems (Visa/Mastercard) connectivity from the cloud - Network management switching to the cloud How we dealt with them - People safety is the first priority - Lead by example - Revealing dependencies (by traffic scanning and testing) - Permanent C-level management focus - Allowance to fault But the biggest challenge was unpredictable cost growth

    .... You're telling me fucking webp wasn't running basic fuzzers on its bloody image parsing shit?

    Did I just get transported back to 2001? The fuck??

    dcoderlt,
    @dcoderlt@ohai.social avatar

    @eniko
    Fuzzing is feeding malformed input to your program to see what breaks, e.g. renaming a .doc file (or a randomly generated sequence of bytes) to .webp and asking a WebP image viewer to show it. So many file format parsers screw up when presented with a corrupt or malformed file.
