On security.txt:

I understand that staleness may exist in companies and a security contact should be reachable. but why is the solution an EXPIRES field that has to be updated once a year?

- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9116#name-expires

People will just automate the task of changing the date of the EXPIRES field instead of changing the contact in their aliases file.

It does not change anything if the date did not expire but nobody is reading [email protected].

RFC 9116: A File Format to Aid in Security Vulnerability Disclosure

When security vulnerabilities are discovered by researchers, proper reporting channels are often lacking. As a result, vulnerabilities may be left unreported. This document defines a machine-parsable format ("security.txt") to help organizations describe their vulnerability disclosure practices to make it easier for researchers to report vulnerabilities.

Every month you spend in a relationship you already know is wrong is a month you are physically unavailable for the one that's right.

Jesse Lee: "I really try not to make blanket statements about the media in my old age, but I think mainstream media outlets need to think hard about whether neutral language — e.g. not using the word 'corruption — is capable of capturing what’s unfolding in front of us right now."

Hahahahah Rust coreutils packages sort of are generally available. Wanted to poke about with ripgrep. So, sudo apt update && sudo apt install ripgrep, and apt, the affable golden retriever that it is installed it happily. Went to try it out.

man ripgrep… don’t know that.
which ripgrep… nope, you are a ninny.

dpkg -L ripgrep -> /usr/bin/rg.

Hahahahahah. The standard is disappointment. Cheers, bags of mostly water! #linux #rust #coreutils #standards #rotfl

“Browsers Treat Big Sites Differently” by Den Odell

🔗 https://denodell.com/blog/browsers-treat-big-sites-differently

> Standards were supposed to eliminate browser-specific code. We dug ourselves out of the IE era, celebrated, and then built exactly the same hole again around a different browser. Only now the browser-specific code lives in the browsers that aren’t dominant, patching over a web built for the one that is.

Too many architecture reviews ask whether a solution matches today's standards. Better question: does it make tomorrow's change cheaper, safer, and easier to govern? #EnterpriseArchitecture #Standards #Change
