Corey QuinnIt’s a complete failure of infosec-meets-user-psychology that “this TLS certificate is issued for your bank and the server is sneaky hackerman dot com” and “this otherwise valid certificate expired a day ago” have the EXACT SAME USER EXPERIENCE.
Julia Evanswe talked last week about what can go wrong with floating point numbers, so -- what can go wrong when using integers?
so far I have:
* 32 bit integers are smaller than you think (they only go up to 4 billion!)
* overflow
* sometimes you need to switch the byte order
* ?? (maybe something about shift / bitwise operations? not sure what can go wrong with that exactly)
I'd especially love real-world examples of things that have gone wrong, if you have them!
mikiShoe factories make much better shoes than an average person ever could. Car factories make much better cars than an average person ever could. Chair factories make much better chairs than an average person ever could. Why don’t food factories make much better food than an average person? This is a serious question. It feels like food production should have been outsourced to specialists long ago, and cooking at home should be, at most, a hobby. Why has this happened to shoes and chairs, but not food?

Paul Gallagherjust read "The Pocket Guide to Debugging" by @b0rk
I wish I had this guide when I first started writing bugs, er, software. Even 40+ years later it is a fun little refresher.
