What can you do to ensure the "real work" can actually be done, more precise paid for? Well, you could demo early in hope to attract coins. Maybe that is happening here.

I have not test-driven adk-go. But if you - like me - have not toyed around with agents until now, there is a readable, nice example in [1] which explains itself.

This becomes much clearer with a balance sheet in front of you.

What is saving? _Spending less_, that's all. Saving generates no income, it makes you go broke slower.

Independent of the price or the product, you can never save more than factor 1.0 (or 100%).

Wasn't there a guy on TV who wanted to make prices go down 1500%? Same BS, different flavor.

Who do you mean with "many people"? Developers who do not care or middle management that oversold features and overcommitted w.r.t. deadlines? Or both? Someone else?

> Even if you don't notice the pot being boiled there are those of us that do.

Tangent: To me that sounds like a reference to the "frog boiling" story. This has been debunked [1], a healthy frog will not remain in a gradually heated pot of water. We need a better analogy for this.

I get your point, but according to [1] ASML was a bad example.

There is no kill switch which might be pressed only under circumstances that may never be "adapted to current situations". So who does said plow belong to?

Are users allowed to copy the referenced egg-shell.png and host it themselves or is this connected to some sort of metric you like to gather?

And it enjoyed some popularity. [1]

More than US. From EU i can't even reach https://github.com/<user>/<repo>.

> I am a bit confused on the "bypass" though. Wouldn't the adversary need push access to the repository to edit the workflow file? So, the portion that needs hardening is ensuring the wrong people do not have access to push files to the repository?

I understand it that way, too. But: Having company-wide policies in place (regarding actions) might be misunderstood/used as a security measure for the company against malicious/sloppy developers.

So documenting or highlighting the behaviour helps the devops guys avoid a wrong sense of security. Not much more.

The community edition is not robbed of its value by this move. They provide a CLI tool (mc) for those admin tasks which previously could be solved via dashboard.

I have several minio instances deployed to k8s for small to medium, and non-profit projects. Easy to deploy, no problems or outages, yet.

But anecdotally i remember multiple occasions, where a quick tour of the dashboard convinced peers, that minio was the right tool for the job.

From my point of view it is much more questionable, that they "dare" to advertise the paid version with a 96.000 USD p.a. "platform fee" plus additional cost if you use more than 400TB. Small fish need tools, too.

> How is this not the same issue?

Although not explicitly stated, i read previous comments as using dick.less@privateequity.com to cancel his personal Netflix account. (Let's say that privateequity.com allowed personal usage of company email.)

I see a difference between accessing an email account and impersonating the previous account holder.

As we are sharing anecdotes:

One of my school math teacher had the same approach in another way: We were expected to use greek letters, not latin ones.

Same reasoning: It showed us kiddos that the letter was insignificant compared to the concept expressed by the letter.

So my take would be: Your friend taught the students for the first time what they were actually doing while handling equations with "a letter in it". That is no problem of algebra in itself. It just means their previous teachers sucked.

"Unreliable" is a bit harsh - the problem arises imho not from the websocket ping itself, but from the fact that client-side _and_ server-side need to support the ping/pong frames.

sry to be that guy (with a snarky comment):

> Over the 20+ years, I witnessed a few security incidents.

As you said, the attackers who breached your system had ssh root access and you had no chance to detect them.

> ... because you cannot attach an Authorization: Bearer header to a websocket.

Well, not properly. You can abuse the Sec-Websocket-Protocol header to pass an initial token to the server.

Was there a specific reason to use AGPL-3.0? Not critizing, just asking.

Tried to read about the license and was greeted by a tl;dr summary of the AGPL-3.0 license [1]. I am no lawyer but my gut tells me that providing such a summary is an invitation to strange disputes. Take care.

Another option is to have a read-, and a write-pump goroutine associated with each gorilla ws client. I found this useful for gateways wss <--> *.

> They will still be a game changer for workplace safety.

Sure. The robots could be used to distribute shoes and safety equipment to the less fortunate child laborers around the world.

"support or engage in terrorist or violent extremist offences"

What constitutes "support"? Hopefully your next government is OK with you back then liking the post of that one organization previously not classified as terroristic.

Is this "don't microwave your hamster"-requirement a result of the bcrypt trouble [1] or how comes?

> The response has been what's called "safety certification":

This is the most scary part for me. Certifications are mostly bureaucratic sugar and on the other hand very expensive. This seems like a sure way to strangle your startup culture.

If customers require certifications worth millions, nobody can bootstrap a small business without outside capital.

Is there an existing comparison between pgManage and pgAdmin somewhere?

At first glance, it seems they serve the same purpose. Am i missing something? (besides the support for some other DBs - but pgManage states to target postgres primarily)

I am not very good at telling jokes.

But even i can tell, that this is low effort. You really get a laugh out of it? Like "hahahaha, they said PHP 5"?

half-serious question:

What is the omnipresent "defined by a domain name" in the "claims"-section of the patent (see [1]) all about? To me it seems unfit as a defining criterion for a network.

"Was Hans nicht lernt, lernt Hänschen nimmermehr."

german, roughly - "What Hans did not learn, his son will never learn."

It is so obviously wrong as a generalized truth but painfully accurate on occasion. Cool about it: The reaction of others towards this saying is a great signal on their views regarding life, society and education.

> They will get all the data collected by the service, which is none.

(disclaimer: not rooted in knowledge, but in pessimism)

If the web service / whatever cannot provide the requested data, it would be in violation of the order.

So all you really need are harsh fines for not complying with the order and the problem morphs from a technical one to a business decision.

Devmem TCP sounds a lot like direct memory access. Am i mistaken if i think of it as a security nightmare? Do you have by chance any links to security considerations?

Even in (the official) docker image, a nginx user is created: (latest, layer 6)

/bin/sh -c set -x && groupadd --system --gid 101 nginx && useradd --system --gid nginx --no-create-home --home /nonexistent --comment "nginx user" --shell /bin/false --uid 101 nginx .....

[1] https://hub.docker.com/layers/library/nginx/latest/images/sh...

Please excuse the silly question: Would proper directory and file ownerships not prevent this traversal?

If nginx does not run as root, how can it read other files than the ones explicitly assigned to the nginx user?
