Has anyone attempted to calculate the overall environmental / energy consumption of Electron, vs if the most popular applications using it were rewritten in a more efficient native framework?

It has now been twelve years since the paper "The most dangerous code in the world: validating SSL certificates in non-browser software" was published.

My blog post about it from back then: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2012/10/25/libcurl-claimed-to-be-dangerous/

It'd be interesting to know how much HTTPS clients are still skipping cert verification in the wild. I bet it is still widespread.

Today I learned that GNU tar does network connections if you say "foo:bar", it tries to resolve "foo". FFS, wasn't the Unix philosophy to do one thing and do it well? Luckily there's a "--force-local" option to GNU tar to avoid it doing remote connections.

Sorry if you're in trouble now, either reviewing your tar calls in your application and whether they can take user input as filename -- or if this was part of your exfiltration or attack on a system.

David Chisnall (*Now with 50% more sarcasm!*)

People keep asking me why we wrote a new clean-slate RTOS for . The short answer is that CHERIoT is a hardware-software co-design project and retrofitting ground-up co-design is hard. The longer answer is in this post

Unfortunately, ExLuck (@ExLuck99) of ANHTUD was unable to complete his SOHO S=mashup in the time allotted. HE was able to get into the Synology router but couldn't successfully pivot to the Canon printer.
