I add new blogs as I run into them on twitter/reddit/HN/etc
I wanted to show a project that I worked on last week. securityblogs.xyz is a simple website that aggregates a bunch of news sites and blogs and displays it on a single page. I have been trying to learn Go and used HTML templating to generate the html page for the site.
Feel free to raise a new issue [1] if you would like to add a new source to the site.
As an aside, it'll be interesting to see what license he open sources it under.
I have a friend who had someone else go through the interview process for him and ended up getting hired at one of the top 10 largest banks in US. Not only that, but because he was grossly under qualified for this job, he hired someone to teach him how to do his job. He works his normal 8-5, then he screen shares with this guy and they work together to complete his tasks. I'm a bit surprised that this worked and that they still haven't caught on, he has been working there for 8-10 months now. He has been sharing company intellectual property of a top US bank to foreigners for 8-10 months. The saddest part about this is that, he isn't a dumb, he is knowledgeable enough to get a decent job without cheating. In fact he has worked, both legally and ethically, for reputable companies.
I also found this tidbit pretty funny.
> The legislation has been under development for more than a decade, but an agreement on its scope was reached this morning following negotiations between different EU bodies.
> The EU denies this will be the case, and says it will update the legislation as new technology is developed. > “Don’t think we’re setting something in stone for the next 10 years,” said Breton at the press conference.
Pi-Hole and bitwarden are simple enough applications that you can host both of them on a pi. Plus there are plenty of guides available online to guide you thru the process if you do get stuck.
I got started with self-hosting pi-hole on a raspberry pi myself.
The article mentions that there won't be any pay cuts, and that might be true for the current employees but for new employees the companies will just adjust (read: cut) pay to 32hr weeks.
I am also struggling to see how they plan on keeping track of this "no pay cut".
One of google search's biggest advantages is the ability to save a click for the user. If I search for "NCAA scores" google will show me the live scores directly instead of showing me a link to the ncaa website which also shows me the score but at the expense of me having to click on the link.
IMO, the right way to dethrone google search would be to have better (or more) QOL features.
But I have been a happy porkbun customer for a few years and they are my go to recommendation to anyone who asks.
One week its an "Alignment" meeting between me and my manager. This is a time where the manager can talk to me about my current tasks and if I need any assistance from him. We also go over our yearly goals on a regular basis here, just so we can make sure that I am on the right track.
The next week we have our 1:1 meeting. These are lead by me and gives me dedicated time to discuss anything I would like.
What I described above is the only structure to the meetings. If manager doesn't have much to discuss in our alignment meetings he opens the floor for any 1:1 type of discussion and on the flip side, if I wanted to talk about my current blockers during my 1:1 meeting that is also fine.
So to answer your question, our 1:1 are biweekly.
1:1s between me and my manager are usually very productive. Our project had non existent tests and through 1:1s I was able to advocate for tests and TDD to my manager. 6 months later our entire team is all-in on TDD. There were other gaps that I noticed on my team too that I would bring up in our 1:1 and we have a discussion about it. Are all my suggestions going to be implemented? No, but it's still worth having a discussion.
But on the other hand if you mean a book as in making a small little ebook, that I could read on my phone offline, I would be interested in a service like that. It would also depend on how the articles and blog posts are extracted, as in, if the blog is technical in nature with code snippets and stuff will the ebook version have that too.
I finally found a link from just googling around that took me directly to a page where you could add a security key. But the catch was that I had to have an active session if I wanted to add a key. If you weren't already logged in in another tab, it will redirect you to the BofA dashboard after you log in. From all the time I spent, there is no way to get to that page from the BofA web dashboard. Very frustrating and annoying experience. But atleast it is out of the way now.
FYI you can only have a max of 2 yubikeys.
