Today in This Should Be Easy But in #Rust It Apparently Isn't: how do I encapsulate the widget initialization (without triggering E0515) in this example, so it becomes reusable?

[RSS] Building a Secure Electron Auto-Updater

@kstrlworks It looks like a transient error, most likely a corrupt download. Shit happens ofc, but he only acceptable reason for bricking the system would be hardware error which is very unlikely because other VMs on the same host run just fine.

🎥 PTML: emitting rich decompiled code

Jack introduces PTML and how rev.ng goes beyond raw text, enriching decompiled code (e.g., decompiled C, disassembly, etc.) with HTML-like markup to provide richer and useful information for the viewer.

@kstrlworks Clean install from ISO (latest minor) -> firmware update from webUI to latest patch. The updater removed basic files, then failed to extract the updated ones so everything just stopped working.

Happy Presidents Day.

Two weeks ago, the CIA shut down the World Factbook - a public
domain reference on every country, used by 6 million people

May I present to you; a full copy of doom, running inside of a Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 save game exploit ✨

Thanks for everyone that came to check out our @districtcon Junkyard talk! We had a lot of fun putting it together. (check the thread for slides / exploit)

(No) surprise!

I think we all saw this coming... #Odido didn't remove data when they said they would, which we now know because it leaked out. Some leaked data was from customers who left 10 years ago, while they state they remove it after 2. Only 8 years late. Even the tax office doesn't need it that long...

OPNSense managed to destroy itself during an update, still people wonder why companies buy Fortinet...

What stage of #enshittification is it when Amazon adds a "Download Problems" option to it's Refund menu instead of fixing their system so people can download their digital purchases?

(Would it be ironic if I supported Anna's Archive with Amazon gift cards after I downloaded the books from there?)

ok the ghost vuln is quite funny. the WAF example really sounds like an array is involved there and it would have bet 20 bucks that its a type confusion (because despite it being 2026 its really easy to shoot yourself in the foot if your types get quirky)

but - spoilers - nope, its really just straight up string interpolation into raw sql like in the good ol days lmao. oh well, happens

I’ve been working on this for a while, but let’s make it official: I started a little Tumblr-like microblog about software craft and quality!

You can sign up via RSS or a weekly newsletter digest. There’s already almost two months of content in there, if you just want to check it out.

Hope you like it!

Just got this link on my discord - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bitman/bootblock-rebels - passing it along because this book looks fun!

The past two months, I've been working on a little pet project, lovingly called OnlyJunk.Fans: hosted iocaine. For free. Because I could, and wanted to.

It's going to officially launch on the 17th of February, in just a few days. But I thought I'll blog about it before the launch, because I won't have time to do so later.
