Heya, I really like it :) Like the top comment currently though I have a hard time with the font. Everything else seems great!

Title of the post is not right, the author issued a (technically important) correction[1]: > Brief correction: Cookies seem to get removed and re-created immediately. At least the cookie content and creation date seems to change. Nonethe

I've used YAML for years, and yeah, there's a lot of warts, but I love it for small(ish) manually edited configuration files. I generally keep it simple and it works.

The latter. I don't have specific examples in mind, just that if you do not trust a company's data collection policies, the collection capabilities of an installed program are much greater than when viewed through a web browser. S

Hi John, just an FYI: if you have Facebook Messenger installed on your phone, you are probably giving Facebook a lot more data than you think.

Somewhat tangential to this particular issue, but this is a good lesson for developers in why you should be dry and explicit in your writing. Sure `alert("FFFUUU WHY U NO WORK");` keeps you entertained for 5 minutes while you debu

Sure, https://perldoc.perl.org/perlpolicy.html#BACKWARD-COMPATIBIL... that’s the policy for the language itself, but as it mentions there it’s considered generally a “community” virtue. I wasn’t programming back in 02 so I’

What this article arrives at is basically the perl/CPAN model. Don’t break backwards compatibility unless you absolutely have to; as in cases of security or when the original functionality never worked in the first place.

Thanks for writing Ack petdance! Nowadays I typically use 'git grep' but I still use ack a good amount.

It'd be scanned years later if the USB drive I've backed it up on for regular infrequent use goes kaput on me ;) The replacing every year or so sounds like the most robust way to do it with current best practices but that requires

https://github.com/4bitfocus/asc-key-to-qr-code looks like it is trying to do that, though the issues on the repo suggest it might not work 100%, which is kind of a deal-breaker.

I was just (re-thinking) about this at work.. Just bought a Yubikey and was basically going to start from scratch with my PGP setup. I really don't like the idea of storing anything really critical on a usb drive or an airgapped system

The lack of a property manager also struck me as crazy and I've never been a landlord. Plenty of rentals have gotten trashed and city fines accrued long before airbnb existed. Doesn't sound like this stuff happened overnight.

Screen binding to ctrl-a and tmux users binding to ctrl-a so it feels more like screen is a bad idea imho. Ctrl-a (move to start of line) is one of the most convenient key combos on the command line. I bind my tmux key to ctrl-s, because I

I'm excited for the whitespace stripping heredoc operator, it's always a bummer having to put all heredocs all the way left.

Like any feature, there's a lot of weird edge casey parts of SRI that can be abused. We blogged about Adblock detectors over here[1] a couple of months ago for BugReplay[2]. A major Adblock detector F AdBlock was using subresource int

I think the skill difference comes down to learning to write code vs learning to run code. Testing, manual or automated, involves executing your software, whereas often while coding you've only ran the code enough times to make sure it

Very cool demo. We did a demonstration of PornHub using WebSockets to bypass ad blockers[1] a few months ago., though that's more WebSocket-fallback development ;) http://blog.bugreplay.com/post/152579164219/p
