Just a reminder that every developer who disables paste on a web form can die a horrible painful death. ESPECIALLY on every field on a form with many inputs. That is all.

Are the Costs of AI Agents Also Rising Exponentially? — Toby Ord

There is an extremely important question about the near-future of AI that almost no-one is asking. We’ve all seen the graphs from METR showing that the length of tasks AI agents can perform has been growing exponentially over the last 7 years. While GPT-2 could only do software engineering tasks t

Federal News Network: The hidden vulnerability: Why legacy government web forms demand urgent attention. “Government agencies face a security challenge hiding in plain sight: outdated web forms that collect citizen data through systems built years — sometimes decades — ago. While agencies invest heavily in perimeter security and advanced threat detection, many continue using legacy forms […]

Not just the modal. Or the tab. Or the window. The ENTIRE BROWSER.

Thanks for assuming I was done with the internet. And for conflating a statement with a question, just to pour salt in the wound.

Novo Nordisk's Canadian Mistake

Today, @liberaforms released a new version including our work on its Dockerfile.

As explained on the project blog:

"The Dockerfile has been improved in many ways, but most notably, it now uses a multi-stage build. As a result, the final image now only includes the runtime dependencies, and not the development ones any more. This led to a significant size reduction of ~43%! It also helps reduce the attack surface as development tools that can be used to craft exploits, such as gcc, are now absent from the final image."

https://blog.liberaforms.org/2025/09/28/version-450/

This is a first step of a global enhancement regarding the containerisation of LiberaForms. Our next objective is to remove the use of the root account for running the service.
