I admit, I am not a Teams player.😌

duckduckgo still not working. Looks like a deployment at scale without rollback options...

My condolences to the poor ops people sweating on this now...

Update: to be precise, DDG fails because Bing is not working.

Uraael,

@icing Ach, they're probably having the time of their lives, adrenaline coursing through their nervous systems. I expect at least one to be thinking "I haven't felt this alive in years!" 😁

Law enforcement and your employer will not demand access to your Windows Recall model, right?

Microsoft must have thought that through, for sure.

A lot of „typical techbro“ behaviour can be better described as „addicts‘ overconfidence“ while high.

Current case: the lack of a plan to deal with Scarlett Johansson‘s objection to her voice cloning. The public boasting that it is intended to be like „her“.

I could be wrong, of course, and none of the techbros do any drugs.

@icing who says drugs need to be externally administered chemicals?
i am sure the tech bros are all on bodily drugs supplied by the attention economy

With 346 PRs being merged into curl I climbed now to position 11 (decimal) on the all-time author list.

I hope some of them have been useful.😌

@icing counted by lines added or removed, you're ranked number four or three...

Since a (very subjective) third of curl's non-trivial issues seem FTP related, I am adding 'ftp' to the things you can enable tracing for.

Why FTP troubles after all these years? It's a protocol with many sharp edges and servers migrating to TLS and then TLSv1.3 show slightly different behaviour.

When people say parsing URLs is easy, they are probably convinced that at least parsing IP addresses is easy as well?

You can write 8.8.8.8 as 010.8.8.8 - same thing. But what is then ::ffff:010.8.8.8?

macOS say it is 10.8.8.8 and Linux rejects it as invalid.

All very easy...

Slides from my curl-up 2024 presentations. The videos are better if you want to understand them, but in case you like better resolution, here they are:

@jpmens @icing 88-89??? You sure they didn't just wanna have you leave it there so they could tell and show their friends? 😁

@jelu @icing hehe, no; the whole bartop, and it was more than 10m long, was covered in cards — most impressive!

If you have an S3 bucket and someone touches it - even when only getting a „403 Access Denied“ - it makes ding on your credit card.😬

AI companies claim they are unable to correct false data in LLMs. (I think that is a false claim - it pbly is highly expensive, though.)

This clashes with EU law that information about individuals - if you claim to have it - needs to be accurate. Which seems like a sane thing to me.
