nextts··on Malware found on NPM infecting local package with reverse shell
What is the answer to that? Learn x86 and bootstrap?

How does https help with the problems Snowden uncovered? You don't run on https, https just does in transit encryption between 2 points of the service architecture. That is why you can (could?) slap cloudflare atop your http only site and get a padlock!
nextts··on A love letter to the CSV format
What is the failure mode where a yaml file gets truncated? They are normally config files in Git. Or uploaded to S3 or Kubernetes etc.

CSV has the same failure mode. As does HTML. (But not XML)

nextts··on A love letter to the CSV format
10. CSV doesn't need commas!

Use a different separator if you need to.

CSV is the Vim of formats. If you get a CSV from 1970 you can still load it.

nextts··on Ask HN: How much do you care about CVE in your team?
Yes get chased up about it by security teams. Internal or external apps.
nextts··on Show HN: Feudle – A daily puzzle game built with AI
Very good reminds me of Family Fortunes the 80s UK game show
nextts··on Sell yourself, sell your work
Why don't marathon runners go to a local toastmasters to talk about their run? Probably because if you are doing one you ain't doing the other!

Stripe is surprising in that it feels like the assembler of payment systems. Powerful but boy do you have to roll a lot of your own stuff.

Like why can't I call an API and ask "what subscriptions is Joe on?". Why can't Joe unsubscribe via Stripe without me building something out.

Beatles or Google researchers.
nextts··on You might want to stop running atop
Is there a mechanism where this sort of advice can flow through security teams to everyone (assuming it is about security) without dropping the details. How are zero days dealt with?
nextts··on Stoop Coffee: A simple idea transformed my neighborhood
Depends on your burb but yes in general this seems to be the case these days.
nextts··on I won't connect my dishwasher to your cloud
Plates are not dry in either direction really.
nextts··on I won't connect my dishwasher to your cloud
Yep
nextts··on The Hard Problem (Of Bitcoin)
Nothing to understand. It is a naked emperor!
nextts··on Cabbit
Or "Rabbat"

nextts··on Show HN: Prefix any URL with `pure.md/` to get unblocked Markdown
Are you worried this ends up being used as a paywall unblocker
nextts··on I won't connect my dishwasher to your cloud
Not saying it was intentional

Take them to court then! Get a group action or just small claims it. Do a CC charge back. They really can't deliver garbage.

In 10 years that appliance may not connect to your wifi if the scheme has changed e.g. 2.4Ghz is dropped or something.

Bosch knows how to perfect asshole design.

On some of their ovens there is a secret key sequence (like game cheat) to get the buttons working again. Every 6 months you need to do this otherwise pay for a service call to do this. Or have a defunct oven.

But it is not public info they have released (but had been leaked on YT)

So they have software with a bug and a workaround they won't tell you about. Ideally they should recall these ovens and pay for a replacement install.

nextts··on It is practically impossible to find a freelance project these days
Not surprising. People find these arbitrage opportunities.
nextts··on Show HN: LinkedIn sucks, so I built a better one
Well if it is BS or not is a culture issue. LinkedIn has a culture (as does X as does Facebook as does Reddit as does Youtube).

That is hard to prescribe and those tech giants probably don't care much what it is as long as people are engaged.

nextts··on Show HN: We made an MCP Server so Cursor can build things from REST API docs
Don't flag yet. OP replied
nextts··on 23andMe files for bankruptcy to sell itself
What does $8/share value the company at?
nextts··on Show HN: LinkedIn sucks, so I built a better one
This ain't a resume. You'd still need to apply for jobs. This is probably closer to your blog but hosted by someone else. A way to build connections outside of the recruitment process.
nextts··on It is practically impossible to find a freelance project these days
Thanks! That make sense. I found it hard to imagine you land a 3M IC revenue on that site but leading a team it makes sense, and sounds like you are raking it in.
nextts··on It is practically impossible to find a freelance project these days
3M for a team I presume not for 1 individual?
nextts··on Derivatives and Logarithms of 3D Transforms
An applet? I thought they didn't work? Or is this Java on WASM?
nextts··on 1k True Fans (2008)
Oh yes get a salary divide by X. Just need S/X people to pay you X a year and you are set!
nextts··on Ask HN: How should junior programmers use and/or not use AI for programming?
An AI that comments on the PR is useful but I'd leave it at that. They should use their brain or they'll be vibe coding their whole life. Even seniors should be minimally using AI to write code.
