@1password uses Rust to secure passwords.

500k lines of Rust in production. Around 600 crates maintained. Close to 100 engineers shipping Rust code across all products. 😮

I talked to Andrew Burkhart, Senior Rust Engineer at 1Password in today's episode of Rust in Production.

Here's the episode: https://corrode.dev/podcast/s04e06-1password/

I just found that polkit on my new NAS apparently uses 60% of RAM.

Why? I don't know. I then restricted the relevant systemd unit to 1 GB RAM and when I deployed that change, polkit RAM usage went back to 3.7MB.

Ah, yes, of course I have to mention that the URL is access restricted and I do not have access, but still got the PDF because I need it apparently...

🤢

Have you ever had a PDF that has a table of contents that links not to its sections, but to a URL for the section in the online copy of that document?

So "1. Introduction" does not link to the introduction chapter, but to the PDF at some online URL where the introduction chapter is?

WHO THE FUCK IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD DO THAT???

I am slowly but steadily losing my hope for humanity.

@paulfoerster The thing that amazes me about Teams is that it's where information goes to die.

It's just too damn easy to lose stuff in Teams. Even conversations that we were only typing in a few minutes before somehow become challenging to find. I really don't know how they managed to make the UI so damn bad.

@psa It’s not only the UI. It starts with its launch. Selecting launch at login and start in the background will make it not throw its window in your face. That’s good. But it will hide in such a way that it doesn’t even have a Systray icon.

And as I said, that’s only starting. I could write books about its flaws by now. Everybody I know hates it.

@paulfoerster Oh yeah, I had issues with "restarting" it not having the intended effect. Until I realised that in order to actually shut it down, there's a background process that needs killing via task manager.

And the crashes, mostly partial so it's not clear that it's crashed until someone says they can no longer hear you.

The ability to lose info is just the one that bites me hard pretty much every day.

@psa Had a meeting today. I was confused by all those too many windows in addition to the ones I need for work.

@psa @paulfoerster
I don't know what OS you're using but, on Linux, Teams is the only tool I use that consistently crashes my window manager. I absolutely hate having to use it. I have to make sure all other applications have saved everything etc.

It's marginally better via a browser but only just and, even then, only if I turn off any ad blockers... why that should matter, I don't know, especially given that we're actually paying for the privilege.

@ericsfraga @paulfoerster I use it on Windows, not by choice.

How on earth does it bring down a window manager? That does seem likely to be a window manager bug though, it should be bullet proof.

A lot of Microsoft stuff doesn't work with even light forms of privacy protection. We've had a number of issues with Microsoft sites around Firefox Enhanced Tracking Protection, for instance.

@psa @paulfoerster

Apologies, I was sloppy. What happens is that the video driver for X segfaults which, of course, kills the WM and all applications. Of course, you could argue that the video driver should also be bullet proof but... nvidia.

@paulfoerster @psa
I don't think you could design a worse interface and UX if you tried.
@ericsfraga @psa Well, in fact, you can. I’ve seen even worse than that in my decades spent in IT. But yes, this sets the bar pretty low.

@paulfoerster @psa
Yeah, I'm sure. But I remember, back in the 80s, talking to MS employees about their exciting "usability" labs ...

Sigh.

@ericsfraga @psa I remember that too. I guess they closed them in the 90s and fired the employees due to doing nothing productive. 🤣
@paulfoerster @ericsfraga Indeed, there are plenty of worse examples. <cough>Cherwell.</cough>
@psa @paulfoerster it's like an alien space person got to look at browser tabs and got the shit beat out of them before they got back to the mothership to report on the innovation they were trying to steal that actually works
@psa @paulfoerster don't tell them exactly what's wrong they don't deserve help, the disease is obviously coming from inside the product, they tried to steal from and disrupt too many things at once

@i_give_u_worms @psa Iā€˜ll quit my job in about seven years. That’ll do. 🤣
@paulfoerster I like Teams. I worked on a multistate team that all used RHEL. We had to communicate by phone, email, and pidgeon chat. Then a (limited) version of Teams came out for Linux. It made a world of difference, including letting us work from home.
@Methylcobalamin Then you’re the second person I know who likes it. 🤣 My boss does too…
@paulfoerster Wobei es heute eher Exchange ist, das wieder mal Probleme macht
@paulfoerster Iā€˜m also quite annoyed sometimes by teams. Itā€˜s our companyā€˜s telephone software. And Cory Doctorowā€˜s ā€œenshittificationā€ can also be observed in teams. Every update has virtually written ā€œfuck you, customer!ā€ over it.

@paulfoerster

I'm not a big fan of Teams, but I still think #Zoom is the worst of all =)

But I'll keep the picture and replace Teams with other awful products (#Jira comes to mind) xD

@paulfoerster replace "me" with "any sane human being" and the meme would still work.
@paulfoerster Embrace what you cannot change, you must. MS Teams, ever present for you, it will be.

@paulfoerster Back when I was still looking for a job, recruiters wanted my LinkEdIn and Voip IDs. After using Teams briefly while at Intel, I can concur with this assessment.

@eco_amandine Tengo curiosidad... Yo aborrezco Teams por cómo es Microsoft Teams, ese odio no se extiende a todas las plataformas de videoconferencia...

¿Ustedes también? ¿O su odio es generalizado hacia las videoconferencias?

@paulfoerster

@leoperbo @paulfoerster odio Teams. Tolero Zoom y voy a tener que usar Moodle posiblemente. Luego te cuento šŸ˜
@eco_amandine yo amo Moodle, jejeje. Recuerda que tengo una instancia de Moodle selfhosteada, por si quieres tener un espacio de experimentación šŸ˜‰
@leoperbo @eco_amandine No soy fan de las vídeo conferencias pero si hay que hacerlo #Bigbluebutton es mi opción favorita
@chiwy @eco_amandine !esa misma estoy adoptando y me estĆ” fascinando!
@leoperbo me encantaria probar! Solo he usado Moodle en el telefono como estudiante y puede que me toque de profe. Ahora voy a tener Linux Mint basado en Debian.
@eco_amandine AvĆ­same y con gusto te abro una cuenta y te asigno un curso con permisos de docente
@leoperbo @eco_amandine serƭa posible probarlot ambiƩn?
@jaguarunileiro @eco_amandine SĆ­, claro. Dejen preparo un formulario para gestionar sus cuentas.
@leoperbo @paulfoerster @eco_amandine no me simpatizan en general, si las organizo yo, uso Jitsi

@paulfoerster Just asked my company if I do get an additional 16 GB of RAM to run teams beside my IDE.

Sadly they said no.

@paulfoerster @nixCraft
Now that my PTO started I just uninstalled it

I can always reinstall some other day.... Or not 😁

@GarretSidzaka @nixCraft I can’t. It’s on my work computer. šŸ˜” Lucky you. 🤣
@paulfoerster @nixCraft the joke is on me, I was talking about my cellphone teams. I don't open that laptop ever on vacation

@GarretSidzaka @nixCraft We can’t use Teams on the (work) cell phone. There are licensing restrictions and other requirements. But we have to use it on our work computers.

Privately? Never! Same for Windows in general. 🤣

@paulfoerster oh I'm stealing this one

@grumpasaurus You can’t. I already did. šŸ˜

I found it somewhere on the web. Source unknown.

@paulfoerster you don’t like spyware for genocide???
@paulfoerster
Yes, thanks for posting a photo of me!
@loudfpv Is this yours? Well, sorry for shamelessly posting it, but itā€˜s just too good to be held back.
@paulfoerster
no not mine lol, I meant that it's me in the bottom left picture 🤣
@paulfoerster How many customers did Microsoft lose when they closed the church of Skype?

I still can't believe Yahoo Messenger was shut down it was a great msging service + was the last man standing that could manage video (MPEG1 even!) over an extremely low-bandwidth-intermittent connection. YM was an astonishingly good product - so rare to see things like this from a Silicon Valley company.

@nom I don’t know, but I know that I don’t like Skype either. I just don’t hate it as much as I hate Teams, though.

I don’t know Yahoo messenger.
