Usual mood: confused. Ingénierie à rebours & endless home renovation. I always enjoy a good walk down the page tables.

Stop faving this this is making me double-check there's no sensitive code in my tea. 😬
Drinking code today.
This is not a meal of honor… No highly esteemed soup is commemorated here. 🌶️💀

They finally did it. Microsoft has successfully over-engineered a text editor into a threat vector.

This CVE is an 8.8 severity RCE in Notepad of all things lmao.

Apparently, the "innovation" of adding markdown support came with the ability of launching unverified protocols that load and execute remote files.

I've always wanted better tools to read and navigate—not edit!—source code.

For example, it's incredible to me that there is no iPad app that does LSP features plus bookmarks, navigation tree, etc.

Maybe now that LLMs made it more people's job to read code, we'll get good code reading tools?

The cathartic effect of reverse engineering without a business objective should have its own therapy book.
